Hey there, hero!

I ran across a quote by psychiatrist Thomas Szasz that called out a huge difference in how feedback/criticism/adjustments land with kids…as opposed to how that can land with adults.

And it comes down to what he called “...the willingness to suffer an injury to one's self-esteem.”

Adults don’t like to be questioned about their choices.

Kids? They usually don’t give a rat. They’re used to being guided by adults, and don’t know what they don’t know.

So…some advice in this episode about how to handle feedback from a coach, and not feel like you’ve been insulted.

And how DO you feel when you get feedback from a trainer/coach/consultant/teacher? Let me know in the comments below.

Hey there, hero!

Short and sweet: six words that might make your day a bit more impactful, and give you a bit more moxie and courage to do what we do as professional performers.

(I ask my students at the end of each of our live workouts if they had anything resonate for them during the session - a #1 takeaway - and as I traversed the web yesterday…Ms. Anjelou, in just those six concise words, handed me what was my #1 takeaway of yesterday.)

Thoughts? Let me know in the comments below.

Hey there, hero!

So…

…you didn't get the gig.

They went with someone else.

You're disappointed, and that's understandable. But what are you missing from the experience?

It can be a lot of valuable information and factual results.

I share some of the gifts we get when we don't get the job.

Were any of them forgotten? Are any of them a bit more valuable than you thought? Let me know in the comments below.
