The Round 12 Show: MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Episode #98 STAY CALM, STAY CENTERED, STAY FOCUSED

Welcome back to The Round 12 MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Podcast Show! Episode #98 "STAY CALM, STAY CENTERED, STAY FOCUSED!" We all want to stay calm when the pressure is on. We know what calm looks like but often times, it’s elusive to experience what it feels like when we need it most. All of us have experienced a situation where we went overboard, or didn’t respond in the most elegant manner. And while we kick ourselves for not being able to chill, we definitely know we could have done better. So during todays episode, we’ll take a look at the calm concept and see if we can access the tools and reasoning to pursue it. HERE'S HOPIN', YOU'RE COPIN!

Welcome back to The Round 12 MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Podcast Show! Episode #97 "CHANGE IS GOOD!" I like the idea of change, and the marvelous results that can come from it.

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT CHANGE? Let's explore the topic and see...

The Round 12 Show: MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Episode #93 MENTAL STRENGTH

Welcome back to The Round 12 MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Podcast Show! Episode #93 "MENTAL STRENGTH! ...How To Build It, and How To Keep It!" Quite often, we find ourselves in moments of doubt, confusion, fear, anxiety, and even failure. We become so afraid that we lose sight of our meaning in life. We forget about our passions and our dreams. We forget who we are and who we have worked to be. Instead of living in hope and wonder for the future, we cast shadows upon our own destiny because of fear, and the fear of fear, and the fear of failure. This episode explores Mental Strength and how we stay the course. Remember, there are always empowering ways to approach challenge... RESPECT YOURSELF for all you have done... and Stay Strong!

The Round 12 Show: MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Episode #92 THE POWER OF PLAY

Welcome back to The Round 12 MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Podcast Show! Episode #92 "THE POWER OF PLAY!" Play allows us to learn how to be creative and helps nurture critical thinking, personality development, and adaptive pathways for us in childhood. The benefits of play are far-reaching, but we often give up play as adults for more serious pursuits such as our careers, our relationships, and our families—all of which are valid pursuits. But what if we could tap into play to enhance our life experiences, our professions, our relationships, and our family lives as adults as well? Take a listen to this weeks episode, as the reminder to KEEP PLAYING! "Play Is The Highest Form of Research." - Albert Einstein

The Round 12 Show: MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Episode #90 I WAS BORN AT NIGHT, BUT NOT LAST NIGHT

Welcome back to The Round 12 MOTIVATIONAL MASTERY Podcast Show! Episode #90 "I WAS BORN AT NIGHT... BUT IT WASN'T LAST NIGHT!" This weeks’ episode examines studies that show how we make snap judgments about competence, and value based on facial features denoting trustworthiness and dominance. These initial judgments color our perceptions about the individual or individuals like them from then on. While researchers found that the "most trustworthy" perceived faces had certain characteristics... they also determined that we should be wary of The Split-Second Judgment... BECAUSE SMILING FACES & FEATURES, DON'T ALWAYS TELL THE WHOLE STORY!
