This episode begins with some proven techniques that will instantly make you look better and smarter to the people you meet. http://www.menshealth.com/best-life/12-ways-to-look-smarter While we all know it is important to be a good listener – but beyond listening is “validation.” When you validate the person you are talking with, great things start to happen, according to Michael Sorenson author of the book I Hear You: The Surprisingly Simple Skill Behind Extraordinary Relationships (https://amzn.to/2Kao7JL). He joins me to discuss the importance of validation and why it is so powerful. Washing your hands frequently is always good advice for staying healthy. What you may not know is that washing your hands may also help you wash away bad luck and bad experiences. Listen as I explain this strange phenomenon.https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/07/110721095844.htm Mental toughness is not something reserved for elite athletes or elite soldiers. You, I and anyone else can develop mental toughness according Jason Selk, former director of mental training for the 2011 World Series Champions, the St. Louis Cardinals and author of the book Organize Tomorrow Today (https://amzn.to/3eo5m3B).
