We’re not always ready to embrace feedback proactively because of the emotions it can evoke. But, we need it to develop. In this cast I explore some techniques I’ve learned and had shared with me.

A little bit catching up, highlights of IBtP for August, a card from Holstee, and the main topic. We are at war with things that want our most valuable resource, our mind. This is about the art of creating space.

It is about the art of focus in getting the right things, at the right times, for the right reasons. Our minds are constantly battling to stay focused. Attention management is the new productivity tool to find mastery in. Just practicing time management isn’t enough.

It’s hard to receive feedback. Especially when that feedback feels personal and very hard to hear. Having some simple strategies at ready can make a big difference in how you receive it and learn from it to grow.

Learned a couple Sanskrit words that made me really think differently when I use them as lenses for reflection. How do we sit better with who we are? We can start, by admitting who we are.

I explore some questions that struck me as profound during last week’s research for the cast and IBtP. Helps to take a moment to capture something that knocks you off center, write it down before you forget how it made you feel, and then come back to explore it later. I take you through my filters and my perspective on 4 questions I wrote down last week.

Today’s episode brings a audio compliment to “You All In Yet”. I unpack a little bit more behind some ways to find your passion, feed it, balance it, and how to keep it healthy.

I explore trying to be aware of the pitfalls we face in giving urgent matters more attention than what’s really important through a couple Reflection questions.

What Character Are You? Another Holstee draw. This time I picked a question to explore that aligns with creativity as the theme. Ended up being a perfect card to talk through with Avengers: Endgame out this past weekend.

A dip into Holstee Reflection Cards, reflecting habits, and intention.
