SF #226 – We Are Who We Are

November 19, 2015 by Success Freaks

On this episode of Success Freaks, we open with one topic and organically change direction to another.  We SF #226 - We Are Who We Are - ALBUM ART-ARlearn about Mordant’s visit with IRUSA, and that ‘People are people’ (♫ so, why should it beeeeee… ♫).  Our conversation uses a different group of people to show similarity.  In the Level Up, we discuss ‘acceptance vs tolerance’.  And in On Beyond, we  argue about owning our behavior vs. the consideration of all.

What begins as a show about team building, quickly morphs into a frank discussion about Mordant’s experience at the Islamic Relief USA offices, the similarities in people different from us, diversity, racism, and moving from prejudice to tolerance and onto acceptance.  Join the Success Freaks as they take a look at some of the difficulty inherent in moving out from your comfort zone of knowing only people who are familiar to you to having new friends with different backgrounds.

SF #220 – Do Your Duty

October 15, 2015 by Success Freaks

SF#220 FB WallMordant & McFall tackle controversy in their usual Success-Freaky way by talking about what’s going on in Kentucky and how to hold onto your beliefs while doing your job….  Or, get the hell out of the way while maintaining who you hold yourself to be.

In this episode of Success Freaks, the guys open with Birthdays, Weekend Adventures, and discuss how Belief is related to doing your Duty.  Mordant brings a Star Trek quote into the discussion of Belief coming into contrast with your J.O.B.  We’ll answer the question: Belief vs. Job Possibilities?  In the Level Up, Charles suggests that you should Understand your Choices and Mordant encourages you to set yourself & others up to succeed and remove yourself from a job that infringes on your belief.  And, in On Beyond, they tackle what Sacrifice can mean in a heated and very entertaining way!

SF 208 – “Communication Lies in the Response You Get”

July 6, 2015 by Success Freaks

In the light of the decisions made by the Supreme Court recently, the need for better communication has made itself readily apparent.  Mordant & McFall discuss interactions they had as a result miscommunication about these decisions.  They then chat about how to get the results you desire by communicating better.  Things even get a little heated towards the end in the On Beyond section.

On this episode of Success Freaks, Mordant & McFall address the decisions made by the Supreme Court of the United States and how that affects communication.  They discuss the meaning of the show as well as Charles’ controversial Facebook post.  Charles covers the “Why?” of the controversy and Mordant explains “Echo Chambers.”  In the Level Up section we tell you to take responsibility for your message and that you need more controversy in your life.  And in On Beyond, it gets heated, educational, and very fun.

SF #170 – A Proactive Helping Hand

October 12, 2014 by Success Freaks

What does it mean to lend a helping hand…and when, exactly, are you supposed to do that?  When you see them struggling in need?  Or should you wait for them to ask for your help?  Wouldn’t it be considered nosy…butting in…rude for you to “come to the rescue” uninvited?

Having been faced with situations similar to these recently, Mordant & McFall launch headlong into the show, discussing what it means to lend a Proactive Helping Hand.  The conversation ebbs and flows, winding through differing layers of making yourself available and being of service to others.  Discover when to wait to be asked for aid and when to jump in, how much might be too much, as well as the good and bad of interventions.  With lots of laughter all ‘round, your Success Freaks show you how being Proactive – Willing, Ready, and Swift – works best when it comes to Lending a Helping Hand.

TOSOL #55 – Down With O.P.P. (Other People’s Perceptions)?

August 1, 2012 by Success Freaks

Why do we allow Other People’s Perceptions to affect us?  Why do we put so much “stock” in what other people think of us?  Can we change from a person constantly brought down by other people’s opinions to one with a positive sense of self-worth?  On the flip-side, how should one deal with overly positive feedback?

In this episode, our You’re-Not-the-Boss-of-Me hosts, Mordant & McFall, discuss how the words, actions, and opinions of others can negatively affect us.  We further learn how to overcome these obstacles by realizing:

>>It’s none of your business what others think of you.

>>Only you can decide what your life is about – what’s important and   what’s not important.

>>Remember, they are as “afraid” of you as you are of them.

>>When it comes to your life, you are responsible – yours is the opinion that matters.

Highlights:

***TOSOL #54 – “Ass In Chair”

***Mordant’s Blog – Down With O.P.P. (Other People’s Perceptions)?

***Chick-fil-a
