JON GORDON: The Real-World Power of Positive Leadership

In this episode of The Double Win Show, Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller talk with Jon Gordon, bestselling author of The Energy Bus and The Power of Positive Leadership. Jon shares his journey from negativity to a thriving, positive life and the principles he’s developed to help teams and individuals succeed.

From practical strategies for fueling positive energy to addressing the root causes of negativity, Jon’s wisdom is a must-hear for leaders striving to win at work and succeed at home.

Memorable Quotes

“Every one of us is going to have to overcome negativity, adversity, and challenges to ultimately define ourselves and our team's success. And the main message is: You have to overcome negativity with positivity.”
“You’re the driver. You decide the kind of ride it’s going to be… It’s all about ownership.”
“You write down your success of the day and every night you go to bed a success. Every morning you wake up a success. You’re now creating more and more success because what you focus on starts to show up more in your life.”
“The root for the Greek word ‘anxious’ means to separate and divide. And so someone who’s anxious, they feel separate and divided. What does fear do? Divides.”
“The change happened when I started to take walks of gratitude every day because I read you can’t be stressed and thankful at the same time.”
“You’re not the thoughts you think—you’re the thoughts you believe. Negative thoughts are going to come in all the time. What thoughts are you believing and what stories are you choosing to believe about yourself?”
“There’s a feeling that you’re winning [at work and at home] and yet at the same time, you’re probably always going to feel like. ‘What can I do better? And how can I do this more in both places?’ I call it positive discontent.”

Key Takeaways

You’re the Driver: Own your energy and your impact. Leaders set the tone for their teams and must model positivity.
Fuel Your Energy Daily: Practices like gratitude walks, journaling, and prayer can help leaders stay energized and engaged.
Address Negativity Head-On: Successful leaders confront issues directly, fostering accountability and growth without demeaning their teams.
Build Positive Team Cultures: Principles like “No Complaining Without a Solution” and “Love + Accountability” transform how teams function.
