The HERO ShowSystematically Building Wealth by Working and Growing Together“I was born a hero, but my superpowers were dormant. I was bitten by a radioactive spider when my mentor came. It turned my light on and got me excited about how life can be different. I did start with a job and do what the masses do. We think it’s going to propel us to success, but the reality is we are still building someone’s business.”

My Adventures in HomebrewingKevik with Richard PreissSo this week we talked with Escarpment Labs Co Founder Richard Preiss about Kveik Yeast and what makes them such a unique ingredient to beer making.
This yeast is relatively new to North America and comes from Norway. In the olden days all Norwegian farmers brewed beer from their own grain. The yeast was kept by the farmers themselves between brews. If someone had a brew go sour, or found that the yeast in any way had gone bad or died, they were supplied with new, healthy yeast from a neighboring farm. As the farming was modernized...2020-11-0723 min
The HERO ShowA Fresh Perspective On Self-Improvement for Entrepreneurs and Changemakers“There were countless times I’ve wanted to quit. If I stop tomorrow, life would be so much easier.

The HERO ShowHow Leadership & Proper Delegation Skills Can Help Scale Your Business“As a leader, you have to be thinking strategically. You must think about your visions — thinking ahead in every problem, and figuring out a way. You must have time and space that helps you look at where you are in your business and how you can create a sustainable future. Do the analysis, answer the questions such as, ‘Why are we here?

The HERO ShowReframing the Human Relationship with the Natural World“We, as humans, are doing injustice to the world. We do not respect our place in the natural systems and not understanding how much we are reliant on nature. I think COVID-19 has been a mixed blessing in some way. Despite all the damage it has done to humanity, it has shown us just how connected we are with natural systems. Finally we come to realize just how intimately interconnected we are with the earth and its ecosystems.”

The HERO ShowHow to Become a High-Performing Leader in Your Industry“Empathy, I define it as showing people that you understand them and care how they feel. I think if we're going to solve any of these problems, whether it's racial injustice, whether it's a coronavirus pandemic, whether it's climate change, it's going to start by being able to take some perspective and step into other people's shoes. And it's going to take some listening and being able to not just listening cognitively, but actually feeling what people feel.”

But when you know somebody else is relying on you, then you want to be their hero. When your team is counting on you, now you can say, ‘I have to get it done for my team members who are depending on me,’ versus ‘I'm doing it for myself,’ and end up not getting done because it's just for me.”

And that simple principle has made a huge difference for me going from obscurity to becoming the Bye-Bye Boring Bio Expert who's world recognized for this expertise.

The HERO ShowBecoming Your Very Best Expression to Make Learning Fun and Easy for Everyone“So many people think that they don't have the ability to teach their children. They either think they don't know enough, don't have the time, or don't have the ability. We try to tell them that they've been doing it all along. So many people ask me, “How do I teach something I don't know?” If your child can use the bathroom on their own, can dress themselves, and can feed themselves that means you already know how to teach them because they didn't just pick those up on their own.”

I could wallow in my pity and be a downtrodden and depressed about how my life has turned so dramatically or I can look at all the positive things in my life and be thankful for them. That’s what I chose. I chose the attitude of gratitude. By doing that, I have not only set myself up for future success, I have also motivated and inspired others to do the same.”

I gave them a 50% cut instead of just suspending payment during those months.

The rule of law in the Philippines is that if you're into leasing, you pay from July to December for the months owed in April to June.”

The HERO ShowShine Your Bright to Find the Happy & Joy Inside You“One thing that's always resonated with me is fear. And I've been very conscious about saying if I'm afraid of something, I asked myself why I'm afraid and then I almost do it anyway because I'm also fearful that the first time I let fear win, my world is going to get smaller and I'm not gonna step outside of my containment bubble I put myself in. So it makes total sense and that's kind of my checkpoint for myself is if I'm afraid I'm gonna do that.”

But I kind of realized even early just going into freshman year sitting in my dorm, trying to think of ideas to drop out of college. Things like that. I just think I never really was meant to be a person that works a nine to five job. So that's probably how I became an entrepreneur. -I think I was just pretty much, I guess, born to do that.”

But when you look at how companies have been built in the past century — when a new member comes, they come with their own network and sensibilities. These people are left alone and work with their own sensibilities, moral compass, methods, and they're not completely watered down by the company they're working in.”

The HERO ShowDiscover the Benefits of Increasing Employee Wellbeing to Your Business Part 2“Perfectionism caused me to procrastinate. And then, the progress and momentum started to wane. So I started to accept, "Start now, get perfect later." I realized that perfectionism is the lowest rating you could give yourself because your floor becomes your ceiling and you don't have anywhere to move. I started to rewire my understanding of myself, remove perfectionism from the calendar, and replace it with optimism.”
