What would your perfect life look like? Everyone has trials and tribulations in life. How you react to those challenges determines how “perfect” you think your life is. The key to getting what you want out of this life is living with intention. Like this? Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/. Thank you for Watching the Passion Struck podcast. In this powerful interview, John R. Miles and his guest Dara Kurtz discuss creating a crazy perfect life. Creating a Crazy Perfect Life John R. Miles and Dara Kurtz discuss the tremendous change in her life brought on by a breast cancer diagnosis.  Dara makes it clear that getting a cancer diagnosis is not a death sentence. She believes that it is your attitude that will dictate so much of how you navigate through it. She views time as our most precious resource and discusses how she has altered her time management and the incredible results it brought in helping her create a crazy perfect life. We discuss how her definition of living a successful life was altered and how she started focusing on spending her days doing activities that feed her soul. Why it's vital to stay the course and not tip over the apple cart. But many people fail to do that and don't change. Why the way you choose to wake up and be positive about your outlook is up to you to create. How the Failure to make choices is a choice. You're living this life and your image and all of the things that go along with that. And it's not easy to wake up one day and say, you know, hey, this isn't actually what I want to be doing. And not everyone's going to like that. And not everyone's going to like the new version of you. Or maybe you make a change. It will trigger things for other people that they don't want to think about for themselves. So it's safer to stay the course. It really just all came down to redefining success for myself.

There is such a fine line between confidence and ego. You can have faith in your abilities and be a forceful leader without an ego. In this podcast, John R. Miles discusses what the ego is, how to know if your ego is running your life, why your ego is holding you back, and 5 ways to recognize if you have an ego problem. Like this? Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/.  Is Our Ego Getting in Our Way? We cross the lines into ego when we can't (or won't try to) understand perceptions.  Understanding another person's perception is different than agreeing.  We may disagree, but if we can't understand where another person is coming from we can at least have a dialog.  When our knee-jerk reaction is to dismiss without seeking to learn, it is ego getting in the way.

Saskia Lightstar thought she was living it big when she enjoyed the party girl lifestyle in South Africa. It turns out it was her low point, as she dealt with eating disorders and self-image issues. Then her biggest test came when she learned she had cancer. It was at that point after beating breast cancer she learned the true meaning of how to create our best self. It starts with self-love and kindness. Like this? Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/. In this powerful Passion Struck podcast interview, John R. Miles and Saskia Lightstar discuss creating our best selves. For Saskia, it started by her understanding her self-narrative and that it needed to change. Why she considers herself a cancer misfit, and how that has completely changed her outlook on life. Creating Our Best Self In 2013, following her treatment for breast cancer, Saskia found that she was struggling to adapt to her new life. For her, the emotions that were put aside during her breast cancer treatment returned, and she felt stuck in a no man's land, overwhelmed with remorse, fear,  and sadness. Saskia Lightstar felt like a cancer misfit, healed physically but still struggling mentally and emotionally with the trauma she'd endured.  Saskia fell into a deep, deep depression. After cancer, she would try to look up the topic of life after treatment or support after cancer treatment, and she couldn't find anything. There's so much information when you're diagnosed, and you're going through it, and then suddenly, just because you're finished the treatment, it's like you're done.  It was a good two or three years that she was quite a lost soul. And it was that rock bottom. For Saskia, that made her think, "Okay, you know what, I need to find a way out of this." And that's where her journey really began. Her book, The Cancer Misfit, is to catch survivors and take them to that bit when you don't know what's next, how you're feeling, or who you are anymore. That's why She is dedicating her life to helping other cancer survivors, so they don't go through the same misery as she did. Hot to Create Our Best Self Show Notes

In this powerful Passion Struck podcast episode, John R. Miles breaks down why we need to stop playing small and instead play big. He goes through what it means to play small vs playing big and 7 skills you can use to play big and live a no regrets life. Why So Many Are Playing Small in Their Life Did you know that Two-thirds of Brits and over seventy percent of Americans feel they are living an unfulfilled life, according to new research? When we are not living to our full capability, it is the very definition of playing small in our life. That is why it is so vital that we start playing big and living a no regrets life. Despite an overwhelming majority of people saying they have a bucket list, most of us have only ticked off between one and five items on it. That is because we fall into the trap of security, comfort, and fear. Those things holding us back from living the passion-driven life we are meant to live. In this episode, you will understand why it is so detrimental to play small and the criteria for doing so. Also, what it means to play big and how that can have a profound impact on your happiness. New Interviews with the World's GREATEST high achievers will be posted every Tuesday with a Momentum Friday inspirational message! Enjoy!!   PLAYING SMALL SHOW NOTES

We all have to communicate painful or sensitive information at some point in our careers. And, while it's important, to tell the truth, we need to think about how we do it. Tact allows us to be honest while respecting a person's feelings. Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/. When we communicate tactfully, we can preserve relationships, build credibility, and demonstrate thoughtfulness. In today’s episode of the Passion Struck, John R. Miles examines what tact is, and looks at how you can develop this important quality. John discusses how tact and diplomacy are skills centered around an understanding of other people and being sensitive to their opinions, beliefs, ideas, and feelings. Developing effective tact and diplomacy skills requires practice and good judgment.  These skills are not limited to use informal communications, such as in the workplace: tact and diplomacy are also important when developing and maintaining friendships, romantic relationships, and relationships in the family.

Just like “death and taxes,” conflict is inevitable! Why? Because no two individuals have the same needs and concerns. That is why it is essential to understand how to resolve conflict in 5 steps.  Like this? Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/. In this powerful Momentum Friday Episode, John R. Miles discusses unhealthy vs. healthy conflict resolution and understanding the different conflict management styles. Conflict, or more specifically, interpersonal conflict, is a fact of life and organizational life. It often emerges when people are stressed, for example, when there are changes on the horizon or when everyone is under pressure because of a looming deadline. However, conflict can also arise in relationships and situations outside work. How to Resolve Conflict in a Healthy Way But there is a difference between healthy and unhealthy conflict. Without conflict, we don’t have robust relationships, create a future vision, and don’t move the needle. But unhealthy conflict ends up eating away at trust and shared values. That is why diplomacy is so important to bringing about healthy conflict management. According to the Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI), used by human resource (HR) professionals worldwide, there are five major styles to resolve conflict—collaborating, competing, avoiding, accommodating, and compromising. Knowing when and how to use each style can help resolve conflict and improve the working environment or interpersonal relationships. New Interviews with the World's GREATEST high achievers will be posted every Tuesday with a Momentum Friday inspirational message! Show Notes

• How Dell produced unhealthy conflict
• Why conflict management is inevitable
• Explaining the 5 conflict management styles
• How conflict creates trust and shared values

Miles and Sydney Wong discuss her journey from McGill University to becoming a financial analyst to now leading a startup accelerator in Montreal, CA. We go into why balance, your self-narrative, and routine is so vital in becoming a lean startup.

She broadened the research to understand the success metrics that investors, government grantors, and banks are looking for when funding startups. The VenturX metrics were reverse-engineered to provide quality startups the best chances for funding and success. The rest is history!!!

Do you know how to turn your time into productivity? This search for a more productive life has led to a particular miscategorization about what time management is and how it relates to productivity-- the simple truth is that it is far more than simply having a to-do list and checking this off of it.  The most productive people do not concentrate on doing more things. This is actually the opposite of being productive. If you really want to be effective, you've got to make a point of doing the right things with your time. This starts by realizing It's Your Time.  Like this? Please subscribe, and join me on my new platform for personal development: https://passionstruck.com/.  Turn Your Time Into Productivity Thank you for listening to the Passion Struck podcast. In this powerful interview, John R. Miles and Abigail Barnes discuss Time Management and how to use this vital resource to increase your productivity in your career and your life.  It begs the question, why are we all so obsessed with productivity? It's probably because staying on task and avoiding distraction is more challenging to accomplish than your actual work in this digital age. Not to mention the feeling of having a productive day is somewhat euphoric.  New Interviews with the World's GREATEST high achievers will be posted every Tuesday with a Momentum Friday inspirational message!

According to the 2020 National Veterans Suicide Prevention Annual report, suicide rates continue to increase in the U.S. adult population. There is also a growing correlation between post-traumatic stress disorder and suicide risk. In this episode of the Passion Struck Podcast, John R. Miles interviews Charles P. Smith on the growing suicide rate among veterans, active-duty military members, and the general population. Charles served 10 years as a Marine Corps officer. Through his TedX, viewed by over 2 million, and this podcast, he is trying to bring a voice to the voiceless. We discuss how mental illness is the same if not more important as physical health, yet it is viewed completely differently. If someone's mental health isn't there, we need to talk about it. This is a subject that we need to focus on in this growing dilemma that seems to be ignored by the highest levels of the military. Charles provides shocking information that since September 11th, there have been over 115,000 veterans who have taken their lives through suicide. This number was fact check by the TedX team. The reality is that if you include active duty members, it is over 138,000 - a 20:1 ratio of suicides in the military community compared to those who lost their lives in combat.   We also discuss these statistics on why we need to focus more on suicide rates at the highest levels of the military and government. And the growing link between post-traumatic stress disorder and suicide rates.  Statistics on suicide rates It is a staggering statistic that 46,510 American adults died by suicide in 2018, compared with 31,610 in 2005. The average rose from 86.6 per day in 2005 to 124.4 in 2017 and 127.4 in 2018. That is a 47.1% increase, and the rate of suicides in veterans is 1.5x that of the general population.  Across the nation, the number of suicide deaths has been rising since the turn of the millennium.  Overall, from 2005 to 2018, the age- and sex-adjusted suicide rates among Veterans were higher and rose faster than those among non-Veteran U.S. adults. Reports: https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2020/11/12/suicide-rate-among-veterans-up-again-slightly-despite-focus-on-prevention-efforts/https://www.mentalhealth.va.gov/docs/data-sheets/2020/2020-National-Veteran-Suicide-Prevention-Annual-Report-11-2020-508.pdf Post-traumatic stress disorder and suicide rates The National Center for PTSD 2017 report found an association between post-traumatic stress disorder and suicide. And, the association between PTSD and suicide is particularly relevant to military members and Veterans. Among US Army service members from 2001–2009, those who died by suicide were almost 13x more likely to have received a diagnosis of PTSD than all Army service members in the same time period. One study examined all suicide deaths from 1994–2006 using the Danish national healthcare and social registries and found that persons with PTSD had 5.3x the death rate from suicide than persons without PTSD. A subsequent study examined death from suicide among all persons diagnosed with PTSD in Denmark from 1995–2011 and found that after adjustment for demographics and pre-existing comorbid psychiatric diagnoses, persons with PTSD had 13x the rate of suicide than persons without PTSD. Reports: https://www.ptsd.va.gov/publications/rq_docs/V28N4.pdfhttps://www.verywellmind.com/ptsd-and-suicide-2797540 Quotes From Charles P. Smith "These people who take that step to take their life, they are in pain we can't understand." "When they take their life, they think that they are becoming less of a burden on others when the reality is it actually hurts the people that they love."

"This is a way to give a voice to the now voiceless."

"And when you look at the statistics, in particular, in the veteran community, the suicide rate is one and a half times that in the general population." ENGAGE CHARLES P. SMITH LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charles-p-smith/ Charles is a servant leader and passionate veteran’s advocate. He recently had the honor of becoming a TED Talk speaker on the topic of veteran suicide. He felt compelled to raise awareness of this serious and important issue following the death by suicide of his own executive officer in May 2019. Charles P.

And applying it to your life. New Interviews with the World's GREATEST high achievers will be posted every Tuesday with a Momentum Friday inspirational message! In today's discussion, Ron Lutz and I will discuss some of the mutual experiences we had working together at Lowe's Home Improvement. Primarily, a joint project we worked on was the first in the company's history of applying the agile methodology to our software development projects. We discuss the keys that made this project such a success and why agile software development takes involvement not only from the software team but, even more importantly, the business team it is supporting. Ron talks about how this initiative saved the company over $400 Million and the keys that made the project such a success. We explore the importance of serving others versus serving ourselves and why becoming a servant leader is so important as we approach this all-digital future that we're entering into. Ron shares words of advice on how you be a servant leader both in your career and personal life and so much more. Enjoy!! What You Will Learn In the Show About Servant Leadership

Quotes From Ron Lutz "And your notion, that agile solution made perfect sense to me at the time, in terms of our dynamic need relative to the business, we were trying to stand up, it worked flawlessly." "For every week that we could take out of the build cycle, that was half a million dollars of incremental sales per week." "I turned around one day, and I said, Wait a minute, am I truly fulfilled? Am I actually giving all the value back to Lowe's that I feel like Lowe's deserves? Frankly, am I staying true to who I am?" "We need to know ourselves very well." "Every voice along with the continuum matters. Everyone's activity is a value add an activity; everyone should have the ability to be able to say if we did this, it would have this cause and effect."

Are you living to your true capability, your purpose in life, your future potential? According to a number of recent studies from Gallup, Gartner, and Bill and Melinda Gates - The majority of us are not. I believe that is because of our self-governor. And you know what that governor is? It is our MINDS!!! And when it starts facing fear or adversity, it shuts down. You can think of our governor as our survival mechanism is our safety blanket as that crutch. When things start to get very painful, your mind ends up taking control and then tells you and your body that you need to be doing something else, anything other than putting yourself into that uncomfortable place. In this episode, you will learn why as few as 15% of all people globally live their lives to their full abilities.  You will learn the three ways to recognize your self-governors and then how to stop applying a governor to your capabilities and unlocking a passion-driven life.   Enjoy!

Quotes from John R. Miles "It (2019 Gallup Survey) found that only 15% of all those employees, 1 billion of them are actually engaged at work. You look at that another way. That means that an astronomical 85% of the planet's full-time workers are dissatisfied with their jobs."   "We are living our capability, our purpose in life, our future potential with a governor that we apply to ourselves. And you know what that Governor is? It is our MINDS. And when it starts facing fear or adversity, it shuts down."   "When you can start taking control of your mind, you can start removing the governor from your life."   "I used to think that I would really motivate myself and really live up to my full potential by telling myself day in and day out that I really wasn't."   "If you want to live your life to its fullest capability truly and to start to accomplish what you're set out to do, it might be time to take that brutally honest look at your current reality."   "Your mind knows exactly who you are; it knows your innermost fears, it knows what you're most insecure about. And it does an amazing job of taking you away from any of those things, to a place of safety."   "I'm being the best that I can be right here. Right now. I taking off that Governor and allowing myself to put away all the lies and accept myself for who I am." --- Resources From Today's Show https://leftronic.com/blog/job-satisfaction-statistics/ https://www.inc.com/adam-robinson/new-study-finds-nearly-half-of-employees-are-dissatisfied-with-their-jobs-here-are-3-ways-to-improve-your-employees-experience.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on-small-business/wp/2017/10/19/study-71-percent-of-employees-are-looking-for-new-jobs/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/jackkelly/2019/10/25/more-than-half-of-us-workers-are-unhappy-in-their-jobs-heres-why-and-what-needs-to-be-done-now/?sh=599eddc20247 https://news.gallup.com/opinion/chairman/212045/world-broken-workplace.aspx?g_source=position1&g_medium=related&g_campaign=tiles ----- --Follow Passion Struck on Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/passion_struck_podcast/ -- Navy veteran, multi-industry CEO, and Author John R.

In this powerful Momentum Friday Episode, John R. Miles discusses implementing the daily routine recommended for peak performance through the Ivy Lee Method. New Interviews with the World's GREATEST high achievers will be posted every Tuesday with a Momentum Friday inspirational message! In the early 1900s, the Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, or Elon Musk of that time was a gentleman named Charles M Schwab. And if you're not familiar with him, he was an American steel magnate as the CEO of Bethlehem Steel. Charles Schwab was looking for ways to improve the efficiency and productivity of the company and turned to his friend Oil Tycoon John D. Rockefeller, who suggested to Schwab that he should consult with Ivy Lee, a prominent Public Relations expert at the time. And, he was lucky he did. Following Lee's involvement, Bethlehem Steel became the largest shipbuilder globally and the second-largest steel manufacturer.  Later in life, Schwab credited the Ivy Lee Method for his Bethlehem's success, which resulted in Schwab amassing a $200 Million fortune, equivalent in purchasing power to about $6.35 billion today.

"If you take just one thing away from this critical message, it should be this do the most important thing first every day." "And you may be asking yourself, why does this work? It sounds so simple. And that's precisely what it is. It is simple in a word. It's minimalism." "The truth is that simplicity works. It works in business, and it works in life.

- Quotes From VADM William "Ted" Carter, President of the University of Nebraska System "Plebe summer was transformative for me, mainly because it was that time when you realize you can't really do anything on your own. It's all being part of a team. But also, you had to deliver yourself." "It (Winter Classic) was a spectacle. It was no kidding a Super Bowl-level event. The capitals ended up winning the game. The gold medal curlers pushed the puck out to center ice on a stone; it landed right in the middle of center ice, and then I got to take the puck off the stone and drop the puck." "I looked at the honor concept as it was written when I took over as superintendent, and I realized that it was a need of something, maybe to be more modernized so it would resonate with the Midshipman of today." "We are such a centerpiece of the entire state of Nebraska. I mean, I talked about, you know, being in the public eye when I was a superintendent, the Naval Academy, this is to that level, and maybe even a little bit more. I mean, Nebraska is an agricultural state. 90% of the entire landmass is farmland or ranches. So that is the number one economic driver of the entire state, but a close second is the University." "We very well could get to a point where we're launching airplanes off of an aircraft carrier, somewhere in the Indian Ocean, or the South Pacific and tankers, and many of the missions that had historically had pilots and naval flight officers in it may not be there." "You got to be ready for your moment. And don't shy from it; take it." "One of the things I've learned is that no matter who you come in contact with, you got to treat everybody fairly with dignity and respect and never underestimate anybody." --Follow Walter "Ted" Carter here: Twitter: https://twitter.com/UofNE_President LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/waltertedcarter/ University of Nebraska: https://nebraska.edu/president NHL Winter Classic: https://www.nhl.com/news/stadium-series-at-navy-marine-corps-memorial-stadium-will-bring-pageantry/c-296376666 --Follow Passion Struck on Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/passion_struck_podcast/ -- Navy veteran, multi-industry CEO, and Author John R.

John discusses how growth seekers often, over and over, allow themselves to subsist in a chronic passion-less lifestyle driven by the choices that take them further from their dreams. He provides 4 ways to understand if you have a time management problem and provides some of the most common time wasters. And much more. Enjoy!! What You Will Learn In this Episode

• We All Have One Precious Commodity We Waste
• Something All Too Common In People He Has Mentored
• What You Are Potentially Giving Up
• Are Your Priorities in Alignment
• 3 Ways You Can Recognize If You Have A Time Problem
• The Most Common Time Wasters
• Changing How We Talk About Time
• Why Wasting Your Time Is The Problem

Quotes From John R. Miles "A lack of time is not the problem wasting time and filling your life with unimportant things is the problem." "Figure out what is most important to you, not what others think not what others are doing, not what others are telling you." "You have control over your life, your choices, how you allocate your time, and what you give it to." " I think the underlying assumption when it comes to Time management is that for every activity you engage in, you are by default, giving up the ability to engage in every other possible activity. And, that is where so many get stuck." "In essence, I think rather than a time allocation problem, what most people face is a prioritization problem."

In our discussion, Chris gives a unique perspective on how a single pivotal event changed his life and made him who he is today. We discuss why sometimes an extra year of maturity when we are young can be the make or break to helping us achieve our goals, whether it is SEAL BUDs training, combat, spacewalks, or being a leader, why the thing you are doing in your life right now is so important. In BUDs training, he learned that he could either positively influence others or take energy away from them by his attitude, energy, and motivation. Training is vital to success, whether in the military, an astronaut, or a leader in an organization—his leadership lessons from winning two Bronze Stars (with Valor) during his time in combat.

Like the more available bandwidth you have, you can have that rubber band stretched out further and further, and you can look deeper ahead of you." “Being able to be the person who gives support and gives energy, at the same time where you can take it from others, is something that I learned in SEAL training.” Follow Chris Cassidy Here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/astro_seal/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Astro_SEAL NASA: https://www.nasa.gov/astronauts/biographies/christopher-j-cassidy/biography -- Follow Passion Struck Podcast Instagram -https://www.instagram.com/passion_struck_podcast Full Show Notes: https://passionstruck.com/passion-struck-podcast/ - Combat veteran, multi-industry CEO, and Author John R.
