How To Reverse Engineer A Growth Mindset The Impact Project

    • Self-Improvement

In this episode Mat chats with Anne O’Neil, a former All-American Division 1 Basketball Player turned management consultant and growth mindset expert.

There’s no doubt that Anne’s successful sporting career transferred into her career in leadership, performance psychology, and organisational performance. In this conversation, she breaks down how she applies the same concepts of reverse engineering to her business life as she did when she was 13 years old and being drafted in the WNBA.

It’s this devotion to a ‘big’ goal, and breaking it down into bite-sized pieces that afford the opportunity for ‘mini wins’ along the way and keep the intrinsic motivation levels pumping. As you’ll hear, Anne is the real deal and has continued to employ these methods throughout her life to great success.

Mat and Anne also talked about viewing the world in 3D and the associated power of making aspects of your life bigger than yourself - attaching a higher purpose to even mundane activities. The example of paying for calls at Lifeline Australia for the delegates of The Impact Project served as the perfect example of this.

On The Unleashing Potential Podcast, we interview progressive individuals who are unleashing their potential on the world around them. We take a deep dive on how they got to where they are, what lessons they have learned along the way and how their experiences can impact us all.

If you want to learn how to consistently default to a growth mindset (versus the more common fixed mindset) then this episode is for you. Whether you’re looking for a huge transformation or simply seeking to fine-tune the dials, this is the liquorice allsorts episode - something for everyone.

And as always, if you like it, feel free to share it.
