The Unlimited Potential Show I Relatable Self Development Dr. Ram and Chris Morrell

Let’s face it, we all have little quirks or do things we maybe shouldn’t do throughout the day. For example, have you ever found yourself gazing through the fridge without even being hungry? Perhaps you incessantly check your email just to see if there's anything new. Or maybe you have engaged in the act of gossiping behind someone's back. Moments like these (and countless others) in our daily lives all have something in common. Can you guess what it is? The answer may surprise you. 
When you take a deeper look into psychology and learn more about why humans do what they do, you’ll discover the reason that we engage in these types of behaviors is because of our ego. Our ego is so much more than just something that gives you the “feeling” of confidence. It’s actually one of the most powerful forces that can make or break the course of our future. 
Welcome back to another episode of the Unlimited Potential show! During episode 83, Dr. Ram and Chris have a deep-dive conversation all about this topic and define exactly what the ego is.  We outline the unexpected ways ego can manifest in your life, and we also provide some simple ways to keep your ego at bay if it turns toxic. 
This is one of the episodes you can put on the “power playlist” for the show. Even if this is the only episode you ever listen to, understanding these concepts and learning how to apply the life principles discussed in today’s episode can help unlock your next level of success and higher consciousness. We hope you enjoy and re-listen to it as much as we are.

Time isn't the main thing, it's the only thing. - Miles Davis
A few weeks ago we did an episode on motivation and we covered some of the major points from a keynote speech Dr. Ram heard from Daniel Pink. He was so fascinated by some of the concepts that he talked about during the event, he had to dig deeper specifically into one of his books called “When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing.”
Today we are going to cover the main takeaways you need to know to unlock your Unlimited Potential! If you haven’t already read When here is some context about the book. It was published in 2018, and the book is made of data and research he gathered through 700 different scientific studies to get a better understanding of how big of a role timing plays in our life.
He looked at the different facets of society and culture in fields like economics, anthropology, social psychology, and others. And his goal was to give us a look as to why we make the decisions we do. But not only that. When we make these decisions, why we make them when we do rather.
He looked at fields like economics, anthropology, social psychology, and others with the goal of giving us a look at why we make the decisions we do. Not only that, when we do. Hit play to learn about the power of timing, how to optimize every second of your day, what you can do to make your business or workplace more efficient, and so much more.

At the end of the day, we all want to go to bed at night knowing we performed at our best…and every morning we should be motivated to perform at an even higher level than the day before. But what actually gives us this type of motivation? In this two-part series, we hope to answer that question and more. 
If you haven’t listened to parts one and two of this conversation, go back and do so before jumping in! We cover a few powerful concepts and contexts we think all leaders should know. If you have already heard episodes 78, and 79, hit play to hear the conclusion to our deep dive conversation on the topic of all things “motivation!”
Today's episode is actually inspired by a keynote speech Dr. Ram heard recently at a conference. The speech was called “5 ways of increasing performance amongst yourself or those you work with” by entrepreneurs and author Daniel Pink. 
The speech was so inspiring Dr. Ram took pages of notes during the presentation. Obviously, we knew he had to bring this level of gold to the podcast for you! At this point in this conversation, we have made a compelling case for leaders about what it takes on a practical and physiological level to motivate your team. 
We have covered five simple research back methods that you can start implementing immediately. In this show, we want to drive home the concept and difference between “extrinsic and intrinsic motivation” and share how some of the biggest companies in the world like Google are using these tips and tricks. 
Whether you are a leader to many, a parent to one, or just someone who wants to get better at encouraging people, we hope this series is exactly what you need to unlock your next level of potential. There is greatness inside of you, we are just here to help bring it out!
