What if the biggest obstacle to your growth isn't what you don't know—but what you think you already know? In this Monday Mojo, John Perry shares the timeless story of a student who traveled to learn from a renowned Zen monk. Eager to demonstrate his knowledge, the student repeatedly interrupted the monk. In response, the monk poured tea into the student's cup until it overflowed, teaching a lesson that has challenged leaders, coaches, and learners for generations. The message is simple yet profound: you cannot pour more into a cup that is already full. In this episode, John explores the importance of remaining teachable, listening with humility, and creating space for growth. Whether you're leading a team, coaching athletes, building a business, or simply trying to become a better version of yourself, this episode serves as a powerful reminder that learning begins when pride ends. In This Episode: • Why humility is a leadership superpower • The danger of believing you've already arrived • How great leaders remain lifelong learners • The difference between listening to respond and listening to understand • Why curiosity creates growth and certainty often limits it • Practical ways to keep your "cup" empty and ready to learn The leaders who grow the most are not the ones who know the most. They are the ones who never stop learning. Question of the Day: Where in your life has your cup become too full? Remember: Stay humble. Stay curious. Never Stop Getting Better.

What can a rude talking parrot teach us about leadership, growth, and wisdom? In this week's Monday Mojo, Coach John Perry shares a hilarious story about a parrot whose bad attitude finally lands him in the freezer. After a brief moment of reflection—and a glance at the turkey beside him—the parrot emerges with a completely different perspective. While the story will make you laugh, the lesson is serious. Too many people insist on learning every lesson the hard way. Wise people learn from the experiences of others. They pay attention to the consequences of poor decisions, the rewards of good choices, and the examples all around them. In this episode you'll learn: • Why wisdom often comes from observation • How great leaders learn from the mistakes of others • The importance of being coachable before adversity strikes • Why humility accelerates growth • How to avoid life's unnecessary "freezer moments" The question isn't whether life is teaching lessons. The question is whether we're paying attention. Never Stop Getting Better.

When storms roll across the Great Plains, cattle instinctively run away from them. The problem? They often end up spending more time in the storm. Buffalo do the opposite. They turn directly into the storm and charge through it, reducing the time they spend battling the wind, rain, and adversity. In this week's Monday Mojo, we explore this powerful lesson and what it means for leadership, faith, and personal growth. Too often, we avoid difficult conversations, challenges, and decisions, only to discover they continue to follow us. Great leaders understand that the fastest path through most storms is straight through them. Drawing on lessons from Scripture and leadership, this episode will challenge you to stop running from adversity and start facing it with courage, faith, and conviction. The storm may be the very thing God is using to prepare you for what's next.
