In every crisis, there’s more than just the facts — there’s the way those facts are delivered. The difference between panic, calm, and readiness often comes down to one thing: the messenger.

In this episode of MotivationU, Bob dives into the power of the messenger’s tone and presence. From a small-town weather report during a fierce storm… to the way parents pass down their reactions to fear… to the role of leadership in turbulent business times — you’ll discover why emotional calibration is a critical skill.

Learn how to find the “sweet spot” between overreacting and underplaying, so you can steady others in their storms — and set the tone for courage, clarity, and confidence.

What if arrogance isn’t what you think it is?

In this episode of MotivationU – Where Fire Meets Focus, Bob breaks down the three faces of arrogance:

– Projected Arrogance: when people mistake quiet confidence for cockiness.

– Earned Arrogance: when hard-fought success walks with pride.

– Unearned Arrogance: when someone rides someone else’s coattails—and pretends they built it.

This episode will help you see arrogance differently—and maybe even spot where it lives in your world.

🎧 Listen now to sharpen your instincts, reframe your reactions, and learn how to tell the difference between confidence and costume.

There will come a day when there are more days behind us instead of in front. Make sure you reach out to those who reach out to you or those that you should reach out to. It is a sad day when you can no longer reach out to them...

“Not every closed door is locked. Push.” — what a perfect reminder that obstacles are often only perceived, not real. Some doors in life only look closed because we haven’t had the courage—or the curiosity—to push.

So many people reach a stage in life where they start to believe the BIG moments are behind them...that they've peaked, that they've done their best work, fought their best battles, and what's left is just "managing the rest" Sometimes it takes a simple drive to help you discover the fact you can still accomplish something, that what you thought was the end can be proved otherwise...that the road of your future is still where it always has been, under your feet!

Introduction to the new podcast. How the idea came about. What to expect. This is the beginning for the MotivationU podcast, Y? . It all started with Elon Musks' X and what comes after X? Y, of course.

It is much more than a discussion about X, it is a discover of you and how to ask better questions. It is for the student, the teacher, the salesperson and the buyer. We want to learn to ask better questions, to be a better leader and finally to be a better person.

We at times fear the answer, maybe it is because we are not asking the right question...we will explore.

We will explore opinions and thoughts...

We will ask the Y of X...

Not calling out names...but still we want to ask...
