In this episode, Jose Bolaños and I take a deep dive into the science and practice of self-observation, which is a powerful tool for understanding and transforming our habits. We break down the concept into practical stages, showing how self-awareness plays a critical role in recognizing patterns of behavior that often go unnoticed.

Today, Jose and I explore the idea of iteration - how it shows up in both life and business. We talk about the process behind writing our upcoming book and how creativity doesn’t always follow a straight line. Sometimes, you hit a wall, and stepping back actually helps you see things more clearly. It’s interesting how that space for reflection brings new insights. We also get into the importance of failure as a real part of growth—it teaches us more than success often does. The key takeaway here? Action. The more we iterate, the more we improve. This process never really stops, and that’s what makes it so powerful. Takeaways: - Iteration is a natural part of life and business. - Different strategies can lead to progress until they don't. - The creative process is not linear, it requires flexibility. - Taking breaks can provide new insights and perspectives. - Learning from failures is crucial for growth. - Adapting to change is essential for business success. - Curiosity and enthusiasm drive great work. - Dying empty means taking action on what matters now. - Trusting the process can lead to unexpected breakthroughs. - Iteration is an infinite process that fosters continuous improvement.

Jose and I dive into what it really means to do remarkable work in a world full of mediocrity. We explore the idea that great work comes from creating something that excites and challenges you personally, while also resonating with others. It’s about finding that sweet spot where your passions align with the work you're doing and staying true to yourself, even when external validation isn’t there. This balance keeps the enthusiasm and curiosity alive, which are so important for pushing through tough moments and truly excelling. From there, we shift the conversation to focus and perseverance—finishing what you start and avoiding distractions while still giving yourself room to dream and explore new ideas. It’s also about knowing when a project or partnership doesn’t align with who you are and making the choice to move on. Ultimately, doing remarkable work starts with self-awareness, understanding what drives you, and leaning into that with authenticity and purpose. Takeaways: - Doing great work and being remarkable is one of the best business strategies available. - Enthusiasm, curiosity, and interest are key to doing great work. - Finding the balance between creating what others want and staying true to one's own interests is crucial. - Ignoring external validation and focusing on originality can lead to great work. - Perseverance and commitment are necessary to overcome challenges and achieve great work. Great work is achieved by being true to oneself and finding alignment with personal passions and talents. - Enthusiasm and curiosity are key drivers of extraordinary work. - Avoid distractions and finish what you start, but also allow your mind to wander and generate new ideas. - Don't feel trapped in projects or partnerships that don't align with your true self. - Self-exploration and self-knowledge are essential in creating great work.

In this episode, Jose and I dive deep into the world of feedback—how to give it, how to receive it, and why it’s so crucial for our growth, both personally and professionally. We start by breaking down the Johari window, a powerful tool that helps us understand ourselves better. It’s made up of four key areas: - The arena (what everyone sees) - The facade (what we keep to ourselves) - The blind spot (what others see in us that we don’t) - And the unknown (those hidden aspects we’re not even aware of). Our chat highlights why expanding the public arena—what’s known and shared—is so important. It’s about being open, embracing feedback, and using it to enhance not just our performance but also our relationships. We also touch on the book Difficult Conversations, which is a game-changer when it comes to navigating those tough talks and giving meaningful feedback. Throughout our conversation, we explore different types of feedback, like biofeedback, 360 feedback, and even the tricky unsolicited kind. We share personal stories about how feedback has shaped us, offering insights into the challenges and rewards of embracing it. Takeaways: - Feedback is essential for personal and professional growth. - The Johari window framework helps individuals understand their public, private, and hidden aspects. - Expanding the public arena and being open to feedback can lead to improved performance and relationships. - Giving and receiving feedback requires assertiveness, evidence, and respect. - Feedback should be based on behaviors and not personal attacks. - The book 'Difficult Conversations' is a valuable resource for handling feedback and difficult conversations. Feedback is essential for personal and professional growth. - Biofeedback is a technique that helps individuals control automatic body functions to improve their medical condition. - 360 feedback involves receiving feedback from multiple sources, including superiors, peers, and subordinates. - Unsolicited feedback can be valuable but should be given with caution and sensitivity. - As leaders, it is important to ask for feedback and create a culture of open communication. - Feedback can be challenging to receive, but it is a gift that can lead to self-improvement. - Feedback should be approached with curiosity and a willingness to consider its truth. - Managing emotions and staying grounded is crucial when receiving feedback. - Providing feedback requires empathy, understanding, and consideration of the recipient's readiness to receive it. - Feedback can be a catalyst for positive change and better relationships.

I sit down with Jose to dig into the fascinating idea that luck isn't just some random, mystical force but something we can actually create and harness in our lives. We dive into the concept that luck is a lot like catching waves - it's about positioning yourself in the right place and being ready to seize opportunities when they arise. Throughout our conversation, we explore how being open to synchronicity and unexpected connections can play a huge role in shaping our luck. We also discuss the delicate balance of good and bad luck, and why it’s so important to stay humble and grateful, no matter what kind of luck you’re experiencing. Today is all about shifting your mindset from waiting for luck to strike to actively creating it. Takeaways: - Luck is not purely random, but can be created and harnessed by positioning oneself to take advantage of opportunities. - Catching waves and catching luck are similar concepts that require positioning, awareness, and the ability to ride the wave or opportunity. - Synchronicity is a sign that you are on the right path and everything is falling into place. - Bad luck and good luck coexist, and experiencing both can help us appreciate the good times and grow from the challenges. - Staying humble, grateful, and level-headed is important in both good and bad luck situations.

I’m diving into what it’s really like to lead a remote team in this crazy VUCA world we live in - where things are constantly shifting, uncertain, and sometimes downright confusing. As someone who’s been through the trenches of managing a hybrid business model, I can tell you that balancing communication, time zones, and technology is no walk in the park. But it’s not all challenges, there are lessons to be learned along the way. I’ll be sharing some of my own experiences because, honestly, remote team management is all about keeping things real. One thing I’ve found crucial is the importance of open and honest communication. Without it, everything else starts to unravel. But communication isn’t the only key to success. Technology plays a big role too, and while tools are essential, it’s about so much more than just that. It’s about ensuring that every single team member feels included and valued, regardless of where they are in the world. This is where well-defined roles and processes come into play, keeping everything running smoothly and helping the team stay connected and on track. Takeaways: - Leading remote teams in a VUCA world requires open and honest communication. - Clear and simple language is crucial for effective communication in remote teams. - Making remote team members feel included is essential for team cohesion. - Technology can both facilitate and hinder remote team management, so it should be used strategically. - Well-defined roles and processes are necessary for successful remote work. - Leaders should consider the VUCA aspects of each team member and role and be adaptable in the face of challenges.

Jose and I get real about the ups and downs of workplace performance issues and how we can tackle them together. We talk about the tough yet crucial task of resolving conflicts and guiding our team members toward better performance. It's not just about pointing out what's wrong but also about removing barriers and offering constructive feedback. Leading a team comes with its own set of challenges, and we don't shy away from discussing these realities. We even break down a handy flowchart to address poor performance, giving you a clear roadmap to follow when issues arise. But it’s not all about the problems; we also touch on the often-overlooked consequences of both good and poor performance. We emphasize the importance of recognizing and rewarding good work while also addressing poor performance with empathy and understanding. Leadership isn’t just about managing tasks—it’s about connecting with your team on a human level and fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.
