Tuning In: Unconventional Conversations About Human Nature At Work podcast

19:29

When the going gets tough, the tough get going... Or at least that's the theory! But what happens when we 'think' we're doing everything right and yet we still feel tight inside, Or we have jaw pain. Or stomach problems. Are we silently suffering even when we think we're getting it all 'right'?

#007 The Paradox of Success: your relationship with success is more important than your strategies. 25:34

We all know that feeling of wanting something so, so desperately that we end up squeezing the life out of it. We've seen it a million times: the over-eager boyfriend or girlfriend who wants to get married after the first date, the colleague who wants the promotion yet fails time and again to those who see to work less hard at it... Why is this? And how do we 'let go' just enough without becoming complacent? Surely commitment and focus are the very things that get us what we want?? At the heart of this question is a paradox: what we're calling 'the paradox of success'. Tune in today to listen to Cathy and Maren discuss the relationship between ambition, attachment, and achievement. What are these things anyway and how do we learn to see through them to become the highest performer in all areas of our life and work? Understanding how to dance with this is how you will achieve the most success, and how you'll love your life (and work) along the way. Enjoy!…

"You have to have commitment!" we hear. But is it really the driver of performance and relationships that it appears to be? What if we have it backwards? What if commitment isn't the 'thing' we need more of? What if it's a result of, and not the cause of deep connection and engagement with whatever it is we're doing. In this fascinating conversation we explore the nature of commitment and the implications of this unconventional perspective. Tune in and change the way you look at relationships at home and at work!…

#004 Decisions: taking the weight out of 'difficult' decisions 29:46

7 years тому29:46

In this episode we explore what it is that makes some decisions 'difficult'. Many times we're not actually making better decisions, we're simply looking for a better crystal ball to predict the future. When we see that there is no way to truly see into the future, we can put our energy, time and resources, into understanding why some decisions are 'difficult' in the first place and, from that new perspective, new solutions will emerge effortlessly.…
