Leaders, Use Words of Encouragement


Takeaways:
  • Positive psychology is a powerful tool leaders can use to build rapport and uplift team members.
  • Words of encouragement should be used only when you mean them, because insincerity is easily recognized and can cause major damage to your credibility.
  • Phrases to try:
    • I appreciate you and all that you do for our team.
    • I trust your judgment and your decision-making skills.
    • I have confidence in your ability to handle this project.

Top 3 Meditation Apps to Try 


Takeaways:
  • Headspace is great for beginners, and offers a free trial. You'll start with a 5 minutes and go up to 10 minutes. Con is it can get it a little repetitive.
  • Calm is versatile in meditations and music, and using celebrity voices to guide you to sleep. Con is the cost isn't reflective of the value.
  • With 1,000s of meditations, Insight Timer is the best of all three. It's got varied lengths and the free version has all the bells and whistles.

How to Change the Trajectory of Your Career

  • Mastering communication involves being clear, concise, and persuasive in both written and verbal forms. Presentations, non-verbal cues, and simple, effective writing all contribute to conveying your value and building trust.
  • Being dependable means having an ownership mindset, being proactive, punctual, and consistently meeting expectations. Dependability is a key trait that leaders, entrepreneurs, and successful individuals share.
  • Communication and dependability are two soft skills that can significantly alter your career trajectory. These skills foster strong relationships, inspire confidence, and build a reputation for reliability and leadership.

A New Model of Grief


Takeaways:
  • Presents a new model of grief, emphasizing that healing is not linear and there is no "right" way to grieve.
  • The Dual Process Model explains that there are two states in grieving: one where you're actively experiencing grief (tears, emotions, and all), and another restorative state where you're engaging in everyday activities, like relaxing with friends or watching Netflix.
  • It's common to feel guilty during the restorative state, but it's actually natural to oscillate between these two states as part of the grieving process.
