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.
