    2023/11/30

    How many people do you know who were inducted into TEN - yeah, you heard it - TEN different Halls of Fame?!

    How many coaches do you know who were the National Coach of the Year 8 times? Or won 6 National Championships? Coached the ONLY undefeated team in NCAA Division 1 Golf history? Is the PAC 12 Conference Coach of THE CENTURY?!?! And the list goes on.

    Well, you're about to meet her. Coach Linda Vollstedt is her name and I sat down recently with her to have an epic conversation during which she was remarkably generous with sharing her secrets to extreme success.

    And you might be surprised by some of the methodologies that she relied upon to win so damn much. LOVE is one of them. LOVE. And she preaches that unapologetically. When someone says to her, "Oh you used 'soft skills'?" she just points to the trophy case and says, "If those are soft, I guess."

    Don't miss this episode.

  • TOUGH TALKS - E128 - The Role of Emotional Quotient (EQ) in Success with Dr. William Maxwell
    2023/11/07

    I interviewed my dear friend and mentor, Dr. William Maxwell. We delved into EQ (emotional quotient) and its relevance in predicting success. We talked about the power of thinking and its impact on our lives. Dr. Maxwell shared how he initially became fascinated with thinking and the importance of addressing the falling IQ of children. The conversation touched on the potential for humans to evolve beyond racism and the role of travel in broadening perspectives. Dr. Maxwell emphasized the importance of family strength and the impact it has on a child's success, the idea that every child is a potential genius, and we explored ways to strengthen the mind, such as listening to great music and playing games. Dr. Maxwell shared the Inventive Quotient, a series of games he designed to enhance intelligence and problem-solving skills. And we wrapped our conversation with his belief in the evolution of the human race toward universal thinking. Here are some highlights and key takeaways you can expect: - How we use our mind shapes our lives, and by getting our mind right, everything else falls into place. - The falling IQ of children is a serious problem that needs to be addressed. - EQ (emotional quotient) is a better predictor of success than IQ (intelligence quotient). - Humans have the potential to evolve beyond racism and embrace universal thinking. - Family strength is the number one determinant of success, and the love and support from family play a vital role in a child's development. - Every child has the potential to be a genius, and it is important to create an environment that nurtures their talents and interests. - Listening to great music and playing games can strengthen the mind and enhance cognitive abilities. - The human race is evolving toward universal thinking and embracing the interconnectedness of all beings. Key Episode References: • "Thinking" - Edited by William Maxwell: A book on the expanding frontier of human thought • "The Biology of Love" by Humberto Maturana: A book on the biological and emotional basis of love and human relationships • "Culture Against Man" by Jules Henry: A book on the negative effects of American culture on individual and social well-being • "The Geography of Genius" by Eric Weiner: A book on the connection between place and creativity throughout history • "Super Parenting: Child Rearing for the New Millennium" by William Maxwell: A book on the best practices to nurture genius in children • "Physics of the Impossible" by Michio Kaku: A book on the scientific exploration of the world of phasers, force fields, teleportation, and time travel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics_of_the_Impossible • "Beyond Einstein" by Michio Kaku: A book on the cosmic quest for the theory of the universe • Oneness University (India): A center for learning and enlightenment inspired by Sri Amma and Sri Bhagavan • Inventive Quotient Game - Available for purchase through American Creek Academy (under construction): A patented course in logical reasoning for children
