To Hell And Back - Losing Everything And Finding Meaning With Tony McGrath

Having an internal locus of control can change the trajectory of your day, your career, and your life to a significant degree. From reactive and uncertain to in-control and confident.   Your locus of control is somewhere on the spectrum between external (things happen to me) and internal (I make things happen).   Internal locus of control is realizing that you have choice, and then exercising the power to choose in any given moment.    Cultivating an internal locus of control is a process that requires time and practice until it becomes a habit, and eventually integrates into your personality.   In this episode, we'll explore five ways to build an internal locus of control.   --   Resources:   1) Top Executive Locus of Control and Its Relationship to Strategy-Making, Structure, and Environment   2) Develop An Internal Locus of Control   3) A Study on Locus of Control and its Impact on Employees’ Performance   4) Culture and Entrepreneurial Potential - A 9 Country Study of Locus Of Control And Innovativeness   --   Connect with me:   Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ernestbarbaric/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ebarbaric Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ebarbaric/   --   Leave a question or comment for the show: ArtOfMeaningfulWork.com

How To Get Unstuck & Find Your Calling With Shawn Askinosie - Criminal Lawyer Turned Chocolatier.

In this episode you’ll learn three simple insights that will help you take control of your time, get more out of your waking hours, and do more meaningful work - in this year.   1) Learn to embrace your imperfections - they are what sets you apart from everyone else.   2) Prototype your way forward - rather than setting big goals for yourself and your business, and arrive dissapointed... make small tests and prototype instead. You'll enjoy the journey and arrive at a better destination.   3) Rocks. Pebbles. Sand - make time for the things that matter before your calendar gets filled up with meaningless and unproductive tasks. Book time off for family, unplugging, spending time in nature, working on your book, whatever. Make sure that 12 months from now you are not regretting how you spent your time.   -- Links: Gifts Of Imperfection - Brene Brown: http://amzn.to/2CxMNGM Designing Your Life - Bill Burnett: http://amzn.to/2CwSogE Leave a podcast review: http://ernestbarbaric.com/itunes/ Connect with me on Twitter at https://twitter.com/ebarbaric
