Reading Irresistible by Adam Alter and he postulates that a streak is a bad thing, which it is if it rules you; however, when you rule the streak it is the best growth system on the planet.  Anything taken to an extreme can be a bad thing.  In this podcast we talk about choosing your streaks and not letting them choose you.

Habits, routines, streaks, and goals are tools in your growth tool belt.  Understanding each tool and how to use it gives you power to be who you want to be professionally or personally.  In this podcast we discuss each tool, how we use it, and what it has done to keep us growing toward who we want to be.

As new parents we attended a parenting conference where the speakers said, "Every child is a different tree, you need to figure out what the best soil is to help them grow."  In this podcast we talk about raising children, helping them figure out who they want to be and how you might apply streaking.  We also discuss how the pandemic disrupted the routine of school and some of the things we have done to compensate.  Enjoy!

The leader who is inspirational is the one who is consistent.  They aren't the leader that does everything the best all the time, they just do their best to be consistent.  In this podcast we discuss the Streaking leader and what we have seen in a leader that inspires a higher level of performance through consistency.  Even better is the Streaking leader provides the foundation for growth.  How do you inspire teams and organizations?  Be a Streaking leader.

There is a certain amount of adrenaline that carries a person through a portion of either a highly anticipated event or a completely unexpected one. The actions taken to prevent the spread of Covid-19 was completely unexpected.  When the adrenaline wears off what keeps you going?  In this conversation Jeff and Jami discuss the "blah" day or the day the adrenaline is gone and how something simple, laughably simple, keeps you moving to who you want to be. 

In this episode Jeff and Jami talk about consistent professional progression in uncertain times.  How does streaking help you keep grounded and growing?  How do you improve yourself professionally to be even more marketable? Jeff talks about his professional "be statement," how he chose it, and what it has done to keep him on course through these uncharted waters.  Enjoy!

We are in week three of Corona virus quarantine and making progress on the projects that we have wanted to get done for years.  Lily made an awesome presentation on themed dinners to have some fun during quarantine (by the way none of us have the virus).  Being who you want to be is a deliberate choice.  We talk about how deliberately choosing who we want to be has shaped what we choose to do.  Send in your story to be considered the streaker of the week.

We have been deep in the book publishing pond and have emerged on the bank to start podcasting again.  In this podcast we discuss the publishing process and what a neat experience it has been and continues to be.  Also we discuss how streaking in uncertain times gives you an anchor or sanity.  We also reveal the subtitle of the book.  Enjoy.

Jeff asks the question, "should I end my foreign language streak?"  In this podcast we explore aligning streaks with who you want to be.  What if one of your streaks doesn't exactly align with who you want to be, what do you do with it?  Do you end it?

If you want employ consistency to be who you want to be, then just check the box!  It is, in fact, important to check the box.  It is a record that you are doing the deliberate things you want to do to be the person you want to be.  If we could choose a word to remove from the english language it would be the word "just".  "I'm just reading one paragraph" or "I'm just writing one sentence'" or "I'm just reviewing one vocabulary word."  If you are focusing on what you are doing in that moment you are focusing on the wrong thing.  The focus is on how many days in a row you are doing just that thing.  Writing just one sentence for 1,211 days consecutively is much more than just writing a sentence, it is doing what you need to do to become who you want to become. It is winning - consistently! Keep Streaking!
