MBL Minute: The Beginner's Mind And I Am   Episode Notes     The Beginner's Mind Sometimes our thinking mind and what we believe to know to be true prevents us from seeing things as they really are.  A beginner’s mind is present, focused and lacking any judgment. It is to be curious about everything. Having a beginners mind helps us to learn and grow.  It enables us to get past old, pre-conceived ideas of people and situations.  It strengthens our belief in our self. It help us to be honest with our self and others.     I Am   I am not what I am going to do or what I have already done.  I am a unique vibrational energy that is conscious, connected, timeless and eternal.   I AM. I just am.  Diminishing our ego enables our humanity to shine through.  Our physical body is ruled by our largely unconscious egos.  Ego is focused on labels, beliefs, accumulating possessions, roles and thoughts.  It wants something to be different than it is and is focused on past or future, never on the reality of the present moment.      Program:  http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   MBL Inc. www.MasterofBusinessLeadership.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music: https://www.bensound.com

MBL Minute: Kawhi Leonard's Leadership And Higher Consciousness   Episode Notes   Kawhi Leonard’s Leadership   Kawhi Leonard is considered by many to be one of the greatest NBA players to ever play the game yet it is who he is as a person that is most impressive.  He is not the “quiet assassin” some sports commentators have suggested.  On the contrary, he is an authentic leader, able to see what others cannot because they have been blinded by their walls.  The emotional labor he practices has enabled him to lower his walls by becoming less resistive, judgmental and attached to outcome in both on and off the court situations.      Higher Consciousness   The person most present is most influential.  We can develop greater presence by learning to become less resistant, judgmental and attached to outcome.  We would be surprised to realize how little time we spend being actually present.  A higher consciousness reduces the mindless and habitual fight, flight or freeze response to the anxiety that change and innovation creates.  This enables us to stay more aware and focused on the reality of the present moment.     Program:  http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   MBL Inc. www.MasterofBusinessLeadership.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music: https://www.bensound.com  

Episode #36: Signature Strengths   Money was invented to reflect the value of the relationships and exchanges we have with each other.  There is no inherent value in a piece of paper or a shiny stone.  Their only value is the collective fictional one we agree to give them.    The ability of individuals and organizations to create value and carry out transactions across borders is accelerating.  Money has become more than a static unit of value.  The way we buy, sell and pay for things is changing.  The transactional friction inherent in banks, currency exchanges and other financial institutions will be eliminated in this emerging global economy.    The authenticity and emotional intelligence we and our company demonstrate in the service of others will determine the value of our relationships and exchanges.  Whether reflected in paper, digital or programmable currencies this is our true source of wealth.   Thanks so much for listening!  If you like the show please subscribe to Master of Business Leadership and rate and review it wherever you get your podcasts.  It really does help new listeners discover the show.   Program:   http://bit.ly/5-Steps-To-Mastery   iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/master-of-business-leadership-podcast/id1335503365   Stitcher https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/master-of-business-leadership?refid=stpr   Libsyn http://masterofbusinessleadership.libsyn.com   Phil Johnson on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/philipjpjohnson   Music http://www.bensound.com
