When it comes to peak performance, go be bold, but not stupid | Carla Fowler MD PhD. on Your Personal Growth, Personal Brand Podcast Your Personal Growth, Personal Brand Podcast

    • Self-Improvement

Carla Fowler, a DOUBLE DOCTOR (MD & PhD), believes you need to run good experiments in order to be a peak performer.

A good experiment has two characteristics:

1. Look at the upside: what do I stand to gain, and what do I stand to lose?

Ideally this scale is skewed in your favor where the potential for gain is significantly higher than the cost and potential of failure.

2. How am I going to learn something from this? 

No matter how the experiment goes, it's important that you are ready to take away some learnings and apply it to future experiments and to be able to apply it to improve your own performance (or that of your product, family, team, or business).

We covered so much ground and had such a great conversation in this episode, I know you'll love every minute of it!

Carla has a special gift for my listeners! Check it out here: https://www.thaxa.com/p/your-personal-growth-personal-brand-podcast

We also talked about:

-How/why she got two doctorate level degrees

-Don't just outwork your problems, do this instead

-Why books are the most powerful learning tool in the world

-Why sales doesn't have to be icky

-The best way to make behavior change

-And possibly the best parting wisdom so far on the show: "Go be bold, but not stupid."

And so much more!
