Mindsip insights from this episode:
Thin slice your daily purpose to overcome paralysis
To avoid being paralyzed by the search for a grand purpose, practice 'thin slicing' by asking yourself, 'What is my purpose for today?'.
Enhance middle-tier skills to build momentum
Instead of focusing on your biggest weaknesses, which can be discouraging, start by improving a skill in the middle of your stack to create a positive slipstream of momentum.
Shift from extraction to unlocking potential in leadership
The best companies are moving from an 'extraction model' that burns people out to an 'unlock model' that cultivates the dormant potential within their people.
Overcome fear of judgment to unlock potential
The single greatest constrictor of human potential is the obsessive, private worry about what other people are thinking about you.
Plan your future to enhance current performance
An NBA study revealed that players who had an idea of their post-career plans actually performed better and had longer careers in the league.
Recognize spotlight effect to reduce self-consciousness
The 'spotlight effect' is the cognitive bias where we think the world is watching us, when in reality, everyone else is just as worried about how they appear.
Recognize social nature to overcome fear of rejection
We are not individuals who learned to be social; we are social animals who have learned to identify as separate selves, which is why fear of rejection is so foundational.
Establish your personal roundtable for valuable insights
To filter whose opinions matter, establish a personal 'roundtable' of 4-12 people who have context on your life and have experienced high-pressure environments.
