Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people's thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one top ...

This subject turned out to be quite complicated. Sure there are elements of listening. I've written about them in my books and Tim shared them at the start of this conversation. Active listening is a pretty common idea. But if you start thinking about those things during a conversation you most certainly are not listening. Listen in (no pun intende…

Good news stays good. Bad news gets worse. But humans tend to bury bad news and share good. Why do we do that? When I proposed this topic I was thinking about "news" as happenings within a business or relationship. The idea that leaders never hear how bad things really are until they explode onto their desk. But other people in this conversation th…

Are plateaus always bad? How do you make the best use of them? Can you springboard from them? How do you even know when you're on one? Maybe it's actually the top of the mountain.

I never learned to play golf because I was too embarrassed to practice in public (I went to a driving range once and tried to hit exactly one ball).

There is a dichotomy between pride and humility. Too much pride is arrogance. Self sabotage and self doubt often parade as being humble. Where is the sweet spot?

Can you get the benefits of a crisis without the crisis part? A crisis by definition is bad. But that doesn't mean that only bad things have to come out of it.

Is it only curiosity? Is there a formula that can make anything interesting? Could we use it to help people engage in "boring" work? The topic is too broad for a single 10 minute conversation but Wayne Buckhanan and James Lee where kind enough to humor me and talk about the abstract idea. Take a listen.

This conversation came on the heels of the How to Spot a Liar (https://youtu.be/ZjURMhIys7M). Is allowing yourself to be lied to a personal failing?

This conversation came on the back of the "What is integrity" conversation (you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/3M0E16wAE7g ). As hard as it was to define integrity, it was even more challenging to pinpoint how to tell if someone has it. It seems easier to notice when they don't. What do you think?
