In a recent conference where Gary Vaynerchuk was answering questions, he said “People love to be romantic about their judgment in character; thus it deems them non-actionable when it most matters”. This episode is about: Not being attached to your past decisions or maneuvers Make it more about firing, or cancelling, and not about hiring Being adaptable over time instead of fixed in place out of weakness Giving weight to your own mobility, instead of to reputation management Podcast too strong we are rolling out through December. Episode 37 on December 7. Join the train while the track is still visible~

How do he do it? 16 episodes in 16 days with episode 36 on December 6. In this one, I talk about: the power of story to connect with people how you can set focus on what you can do instead of missed opportunities commentary on potential future podcast discussion We are on the podcast train and it is zooming out to space.

Fires happen in Southern California, or near Los Angeles, and a few are currently burning away. This prompted me to do this episode on how to manage during such instances, and those of earthquakes and other disasters, and to think about them in advance. Couple of fires going on right now (Thomas Fire and Creek Fire) Understanding the elements that take place in the area you live in Keeping in mind what is valuable for you to take or leave Organizing your possessions at all times so you are aware of what you have Aside from this content, I hope all of you are doing smoothly, and will continue with book and related content in the near future. Shout outs to the firefighters who battle against fires, stopping them at tops of mountains or before they get to housing regions.

We are back at it with some Sapolsky for you. This is a summary of chapters 9 through 12 in his book “Behave”, and I took in-depth notes on these chapters regarding human behavior. Some of the topics in this episode are: collectivist versus individualist cultures and their different thinking how culture impacts action how behavior evolved in terms of kin selection and pairing to family and extended family us versus them thinking, and how Others are viewed by Us groups levels of hierarchy in society and how noted they are by all animals, but especially people This book is packed with information. The next episode that includes content on it will be on chapters 13 through 17(which is the last chapter), and then I will do a recap.
