In our last episode, we talked about a having a positive mindset and growth mindset. In this episode, we are going to talk about what I label as category 2. Category 2 is having a higher order thinking skills like innovation, critical thinking, and problem solving. I have done an entire episode on bloom’s taxonomy in season 1 about 2 years ago. If you haven’t listened to that one, it’s a good episode for even more background info. Having higher order thinking skills like innovation, critical thinking, and problem solving will show that you are value added to any organization and worth investing in

In our last episode, we talked about an overview of life skills and how important they are. In this episode, we are going to talk about what I label as category 1. Category 1 is having a positive mindset and growth mindset. They are different, but almost the same. If you haven’t listened to the last episode, I would ask that you go back and listen to that one first to just get some background info before we dive into this topic. As we talked about earlier, life skills are critical to our success in the workplace and in life.

We're back with another episode of Tim stating the obvious. In our last episode, we talked about self-worth and value. In this episode, we are going to talk about how important it is to learn life skills along the way. These two topics go hand in hand - I have found that the more self-worth and value you have on yourself, the better life skills a person has. There is a small debate over what soft skills are versus what life skills are. People get them confused all the time and think they are interchangeable; however, they are not. You know, it really says something when 90% of major companies worry about whether the person they hired would represent the company well.

We're back with another episode of Tim stating the obvious. In our last episode, we talked about focus and time management. In this episode, we are going to talk about how important it is to know yourself-worth and value. We underestimate our worth every day, and that compounded. Let’s think of like the stock market. There is VALUE in a specific stock and it performs well, but the company talks badly about itself, therefore the stock gets devalued over time, and people lose confidence in the stock, which becomes even more devalued and worthless. In the same way, we need to think about our own worth and value.

In the last episode, we talked about how to increase mental focus strength. In this episode, we are going to be talking about focus and time management. When I talk about time management, I am talking about we process and organize our days to get the most out of activities that we need to complete. Effective Time Management comes down to a couple of things. It all boils down to how well you prioritize, schedule, focus, and how well disciplined you are. It’s a complete approach. It is not a one size fits all. I am curious, how do you time manage? What methods have you found effective? Do you use any of these methods and, if so, how have they worked for you?

I think if this year for you has been anything like it has for me, you may be tired towards the end of the year due to the market trying to make up for last years losses and everyone trying to reach their goals. This can become discouraging. In this quick episode we talk about 3 ways in which you can finish this year strong and set yourself up for success for next year.

Have you ever thought to yourself, “I wish I had thought of that earlier?” This series is about goal setting and preparing for next year and setting our goals ahead of time before we get overcome by events. You can achieve much more if we take the time now as we wind down the year. We can do an after action review or post mort um on our goals last year to see what you did well and not so well. Next year has yet to be written in the history books. -Now is the time to set our goals and shape our environments so we can be productive to achieve our goals in 2022. In this episode, we talk about how to set goals now and prepare for the next year. #goalsetting #newyear #makeithappen
