    008 - Solution Oriented Problem Solver

    Be a solution-oriented individual, not a problem-oriented individual. When a problem or issue arises, approach it with a mindset that you are looking for a solution, not simply bringing a problem to the table. Being solution-oriented immediately adds value to any team because anyone can bring problems to the table but the more proficient problem-solvers bring solutions and steps towards a solution to the table. "If you fight for your limitations, you get to keep them." -Jim Kwik

    007 - You Are the Creator of Your Own Destiny

    This episode talks about the box, the mold, the "correct" way we have been told to live our lives, and what I have to say about that. If your profession, job, career, or organization is instructing you to act in a way that does not line up with your values, find a new one. Stand up for what is right and don’t fold under the mob mentality or the bystander effect. Shoot for the stars, land on the moon. Dream big, but while you’re building your dream, think about whether or not you are providing value to other human beings without tearing down other dreams and human beings around you. Take the box, the mold, the picture-perfect citizen, the white picket fence “American dream”, throw it away and create your own destiny. "Those who stand for nothing, fall for everything" -Alexander Hamilton

    006 - Vulnerability Builds Human Connection: A Conversation w/ Andrew Lingao

    Today's episode is a guided conversation with a buddy of mine, Andrew Lingao. We will talk about vulnerability, emotional intelligence, and personal growth. Vulnerability builds trust and human connection. Vulnerability does not equal weakness. Vulnerability requires you to be honest with yourself and the humans you're trying to connect with.  "To share your weakness is to make yourself vulnerable; to make yourself vulnerable is to show your strength." -Criss Jami

    005 - Understanding Other People's Purpose in Your Journey of Life

    Today's episode will talk about the concept that everyone has a purpose in your life, some good and some bad and that everyone in the organization you're a part of has a purpose, whether they're above or below you in the organizational structure. Burning bridges is oftentimes an unproductive decision to make. When people want to be a part of your life, allow them in, and help them grow as human beings. Understand that everyone plays a part in the bigger picture of your life and in your organization.  "You don’t get paid for the hour. You get paid for the value you bring to the hour." – Jim Rohn "People burn their bridges until they realize they’re stranded… and then it’s too late.” -Anonymous

    004 - The Importance of Good Habits

    Today's episode will talk about the importance and ramifications of creating successful habits. It's the small wins that lead to large victories in life, so get rid of your habits that aren't driving you towards success and start practicing habits that will help you achieve your goals. Put your best foot forward on every task you perform and prove it to yourself, not others.  "Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good. It's the thing you do that makes you good." -Malcolm Gladwell

    003 - Questions are more important than answers - Conversation w/ Nick Ayala

    Asking good questions in conversation provides more substance than giving someone answers. When someone approaches you with a problem, ask questions to guide them to make their own conclusions, and assist them in practicing self-awareness. Listen to the conversation between Nick and me, and hopefully pull a nugget or two away from this episode, thanks for listening.  "Don't be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are small jobs. Every time you conquer one it makes you that much stronger. If you do the little jobs well, the big ones will tend to take care of themselves." -Dale Carnegie

    002 - Listen to Understand, Not to Respond

    Welcome back to episode 2! Today I'll be talking about using teaching points in conversation instead of shaming someone for lacking the knowledge you have.   "Words can inspire and words can destroy, choose yours well." -Robin Sharma
