  • Mike’s Mind: Taking a Survey of You (Episode 283)

    Have you ever taken a survey of you? A true survey from an outsider's perspective? In this episode I talk about the importance of doing just that. We all have our blind spots about things we might do a little better, but we also have blind spots about things we do exceptionally well. 

    I've done this twice so far in almost 20 years, and in this episode, I tell you how to do it and why it's important.

  • David Wood - What to Do When Mice are the Elephants in the Room (Episode 282)
    A former Consulting Actuary to Fortune 100 companies -- including Sony Music, Chanel and Exxon -- David Wood left his cushy Park Avenue job 20 years ago to build the world's largest coaching business. He became #1 on Google for "life coaching," serving an audience of 150,000 coaches and coaching thousands of hours across 12 countries.

    Alongside his clients' successes, David is no stranger to overcoming challenges himself, having overcome a full collapse of his paraglider and a fractured spine, witnessing the death of his sister at age 7, severe anxiety and depression, and a national Gong Show!

    He is the author of "Get Paid for Who You Are," and most recently "Mouse in the Room - Because the Elephant Isn't Alone."  He was nominated to the exclusive Transformational Leadership Council alongside such thought leaders as Don Miguel Ruiz, John Gray, and Marianne Williamson.

    In this episode, David talks about the importance of naming your mice, the hurdle of instant gratification and being unapologetically authentic. What does it mean to have 30% more courage?

    Hear about the art of dealing with rejection, when not to follow your courage, and get David’s advice to his younger self, all on today’s episode of How'd It Happen.

  • Mike’s Mind: Credibility Habits (Episode 281)

    In this episode, I talk about Credibility.  I recently had the honor of giving the commencement address at a local private high school, and I wanted what I said to resonate not only with the graduates but with their parents and anyone else in the audience.  I don't go through the entire commencement speech, but I wanted to impart what I consider to be the three keys that are necessary to develop and build the very best, most authentic and most valuable version of you. Those three keys lend themselves to building credibility.

    Listen to this episode as I take you through the 3 keys, but I also provide a few other simple habits that I've learned will help you develop and build the very best, most authentic and most valuable version of you.

  • Mike’s Mind: Why I didn't Know My WHY (Episode 279)

    In this episode, I talk about knowing your WHY -- and why I didn't know my WHY.

    It seems there's a lot of pressure about knowing your WHY. It feels to me like knowing your WHY or feeling like you need to know your WHY can be just as paralyzing as it can be exciting.  I suppose it's because if you know your WHY, you can actually make 'it' happen.

    Listen to the episode to hear my take on the journey to find your WHY.

  • Mike’s Mind: Oura Ring (#277)

    In this fun little solo episode, I talk to you about my sleep tool called "Oura Ring."  It actually does a lot more than analyze how well someone sleeps, but that's my number one favorite feature of the ring.  It keeps track of your total sleep, your time in bed, your sleep efficiency (your REM, deep and light sleep), it keeps your heart rate, keeps track of movement and restfulness. This new technology was smart enough to alert me that I had COVID before I actually had any symptoms.  Maybe having this kind of information could be helpful to you, would maybe "gamify" you as it gamified me! It might have a positive impact on your life!

  • Mike’s Mind: Who You Hang Out With (#275)

    In this episode, I talk about who you hang out with and Jim Rohn's concept that  you are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.  Or, show me your friends, and I'll show you your future.

    That might be true at certain times of your life, but as I go through the exercise of applying that idea to my own life, I come to some important revelations that I'd like to share with you in the hopes that you might some value in my experience.
