Inside Strategic Coach: Connecting Entrepreneurs With What Really Matters

The Foundation Of A Growth Mindset Is Just Guesses And Bets


Listen Later

Every entrepreneur would love to be able to predict the future, but of course it’s impossible. The future is always being created by every human being on the planet every day making guesses and bets about their individual future. There's no way of understanding or even detecting what kind of guesses and bets eight billion people are making today, when they weren’t even thinking about it yesterday. In this episode, business coaches Dan Sullivan and Shannon Waller explain the importance of understanding why it’s all about guessing and betting, and how you can make the best guesses and bets for business success and business growth in your future.


Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:

  • Why we’ll never get beyond technology just being reactive.
  • Why artificial intelligence is based on the past, not the future.
  • The big bet that Dan and Babs made before starting The Strategic Coach® Program in 1989.
  • How to find team members you don’t have to manage, monitor, or motivate.


Show Notes:

Humans have always had a desire to predict the future.


Technology can’t be superior to the human thinking that goes into it.


An entrepreneur betting on something means they commit their time, their activity, and in some cases, their money to a particular activity.


People have far more freedom on an individual basis now than they did a century ago.


Individual team members need to take themselves at least as seriously as management does.


Predictions are just guessing and betting based on what’s happened up until now.


You’re making a guess and a bet when you hire a team member.


If you look into how a technology is created, you know what to expect from it and what not to expect.


A great team member has to be great at what they do and great at playing with others.


Some people strive for a role they aren’t good at because in their minds it has higher status.
