“It’s like that old saying, ‘Physician, heal thyself’.
You’ve got to find it for yourself first; then, you can give it away.”
Sydney Banks

This week I’m re-running an article I wrote last year because it relates directly to something I’m in the process of creating. This was originally released as part 5 in the series of articles on the 10 professional practice multipliers from the Exponential Practice Scorecard https://www.jamiesmart.com/scorecard/. Whether you’re a transformation professional or not, you’re going to discover that the scorecard’s 10 multipliers apply to almost everyone (at least, with a little creativity). This week, we’ll be looking at Multiplier Number 5 – Transformational Impact. Read More →

1. A quote I’m resonating with this week
I’m a huge fan of Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s excellent book, Antifragile: Things That Gain from Disorder. The notion of ‘anti fragility’ continues to be offer incredibly powerful perspective for me, and has led to all kinds of positive effects in my life and my work. In fact, I referred to him and his work in RESULTS (pages 71-74). Here’s a Taleb-tidbit to whet your appetite:

“The irony of the process of thought control: the more energy you put into trying to control your ideas and what you think about,
the more your ideas end up controlling you.” Read More →

It’s enthusiasm time again. Let me know what you think via twitter at @JamieSmartCom, on my Facebook page, or on my blog here.

1. A quote I’m resonating with this week
‘Today, the Luddites are generally seen as wrong-headed and backward technophobes, when in fact they were not anti-technology,
but, in the words of Ronnie Bray, “anti-starvation.” Suffice it to say, that had automation delivered on its promise
to maintain or create jobs, at least in the short term, there would have been no Luddite backlash.’ Read More →

For this episode we’re doing something different. This is a recording of an interview I did with my dear friend and colleague Garret Kramer, six years ago. Both he and I have continued growing and evolving since we recorded this, but there’s still plenty of gold in here. Garret Kramer is a coach, trainer and the founder of Inner Sports. He has provided consulting and/or crisis management services to hundreds of athletes and coaches; from well known professionals, Olympians, and teams, to high school and collegiate players across a multitude of sports. A former collegiate ice hockey player, Garret is credited with bringing the inside-out understanding to the athletic community at large. And one of the interesting things about Garret is he’s the author of two books, Stillpower: The Inner Source of Athletic Excellence, and The Path of No Resistance: Why Overcoming is Simpler than You Think.
