#370: Steve Herz: Don't Take Yes For An Answer
Notes:
- Sustaining excellence =
- Curiosity - Genuine interest
- A desire to learn and grow
- Finding uncommon commonalities:
- His parents went to Ohio University (which is where I graduated)
- Do your homework prior to meeting someone (as Steve did on me)
- Be actionable and intentional
- Meet someone on their turf. ACKNOWLEDGE them.
- Turner Smith:
- "Don't Take Yes For An Answer" -- Beware of the counter-fit yes. They are not helpful.
- "Don't live in an echo chamber of Yes."
- Seek feedback - Turner Smith not only didn't give Steve an offer... He gave him specific feedback as to why. Changed his life.
- Tough love with kindness
- Read the book: Seabiscuit. Knowing when to use carrots vs. sticks.
- Taking his shot with Alfred Geller - "I met him in a elevator and only had a few seconds. I asked to work with him... He said, 'meet me in my office at 8:00am tomorrow.'"
- "I downloaded his brain."
- "You need to perfect your A. W. E."
- Authority
- Warmth
- Energy
- John Kasich didn't use his voice properly. "Change your voice, change your life."
- Mid-level manager advice:
- "Act like you've been there before (like Barry Sanders)." Internalize it.
- "When you're walking your dog, who is walking who?"
- Providing feedback to his clients:
- "Joe Tessitore couldn't figure out how to modulate his voice."
- Don't get into the "vortex of mediocrity:"
- The most painful thing in the world is unfulfilled potential.
- Find the people who are able to give you critical feedback and listen.
- When he started his company, he called it IF after Rudyard Kipling's poem by the same name which says, "If you can dream-- and not make dreams your master… yours is the Earth and everything that's in it."
- We are ALL in sales: Steven Shapiro, member of the board of overseers of University of Pennsylvania Law School, "We have a saying at the firm: You can buy a pound of brains at the butcher. I walk through the halls of the university, and there are many brilliant future lawyers. But they can't look you in the eye in the hallway. In 15 years, this person may be writing law on the tax code, but they're probably not going to have a lot of clients." You know where lawyers, or salespeople, or consultants go when they don't bring in business? Neither do I. Because you rarely hear about them ever again."

Passion Struck with John R. Miles
By shows
You built the life you were supposed to want. So why doesn't it feel like enough?<br /><br />Passion Struck with John R. Miles is the #1 alternative health podcast exploring the deepest questions of human well-being — how we think, how we feel, how we connect, and how we build lives that don't quietly hollow us out from the inside. Hosted by bestselling author, Navy veteran, and former Fortune 50 executive John R. Miles, this is the show for anyone who wants to understand themselves more deeply and live more fully.<br /><br />Every week, John sits down with the world's leading voices across neuroscience, psychology, medicine, philosophy, sports, business, and the arts — guests like Seth Godin, Ryan Holiday, Susan Cain, Mark Hyman, Angela Duckworth, and Arthur Brooks. Together, they explore what it actually takes to build a life that feels like yours—how to strengthen your mind and body, build relationships that sustain you, find purpose before you’ve lost it or reclaim it after you have, and break free from stress, numbness, and the quiet drift of going through the motions.<br /><br />Whether you're 26 and trying to build your life the right way from the start, or 43 and wondering why the life you built doesn't feel like yours, this show meets you exactly where you are. Because the questions you're carrying deserve real answers.<br /><br />New episodes every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.<br /><br />85 Million Downloads | Gold Stevie Award | Davey Gold for Social Impact
