What’s Your Priority?

What’s Your Priority?

Blog by Rick0 comments

A question that often gets overlooked is “What does improving my life look like?” It’s easy to use other people’s metrics, but it’s crucial to find the metrics that matter the most for your own life.  Speaking for myself, it’s easy to assume that it means the same as the […]

Don’t Break Belonging

belonging by Rick0 comments

If you’re a leader seeking to build belonging in your organization or team or loose confederation of monster hunters or whatever, you’ve got to build trust.  Trust, interestingly enough, is measured by its weakest facet.  This means you can have all the credibility in the world, but if you don’t […]

Ukraine

Blog by Rick0 comments

I am not a foreign policy expert, nor a diplomat, nor a politician. At the end of the day, I’m some dude in California who talks about leadership and makes monster art. I have the privilege of never knowing what it’s like to live in a country where war is […]

Arbitrary Dates

Blog by Rick0 comments

Happy 2022, everyone. You might find today to be a momentous occasion, as it’s the start of a new calendar year. After all, we’ve created parades, funding and budget cycles, national holidays, and a bunch of other cultural norms around this day. So if that’s your jam, ride that inspiration […]

Falling On the Wagon

Falling On the Wagon

Blog by Rick0 comments

The term falling off the wagon usually refers to someone breaking a habit. It’s pretty apt in the way that it seems very intuitive that one can fall off a moving wagon if they simply lose their footing and get jostled by the natural bumpiness of the roads that a […]

Are You Busy or Lazy?

bias by Rick0 comments

That’s the question I was asking myself the other day. Given a culture where most famous thought leaders espouse waking up prior to the sun and working out, meditating, and doing daily pages prior to 7am, it makes sense as a night owl who regularly finds a groove between 11pm […]

Building in Public

Blog by Rick0 comments

I’ve been thinking a lot about Kaiju Coaching this weekend, and something I’ve come up with is that I’ve been pretty unclear about who I serve specifically.  “Leaders” and “those with impostor syndrome” are pretty general, and since I’ve also been reflecting on copywriting (probably because I’ll be head coaching […]

Joy As a Compass

Blog by Rick0 comments

This weekend I had the opportunity to check out Selena Soo’s three-day virtual conference. Long story short, I had an amazing time, but it also made me rethink about the daily blog, who’s it for, what’s it for, and whether or not it (in it’s current form) is serving me. […]

Spinach in My Teeth

bias by Rick0 comments

Without a mirror, it’s impossible to see ourselves. (Okay, yes, we have cameras, and modern technology, but work with me here for a minute).  Whether or not you have breakfast in your teeth, if your hair got messed up after your nap, or if it’s apparent that you literally rolled […]

Approval

belonging by Rick0 comments

It’s tempting to want to get picked. After all, it’s a great feeling as someone is articulating their desire for you, your skills, your talents, your value.  I’m not above this desire. Who doesn’t want to be chosen? But at the end of the day, the best thing we can […]
