Published: May 19, 2019, 2 p.m.

Dr Jason Fox is the leadership guy for people who can't stand motivational speakers. People come to him for his fresh perspectives, contemporary philosophies and ideas in motivation design. He shows Fortune 500 brands like\xa0Microsoft, HP, Cisco, Oracle, Toyota, and Xero how to go deep into uncharted territory. This fascinating conversation goes into thinking, productivity, and productive deep thinking. \xa0 When people ask Jason what he does, how does he like to reply? To talk about one's self in a\xa0covered attempt is to convince you of one's\xa0character. Why is this best done as a\xa0character? Your authentic self or true self can be dangerous. Why? The authentic self or true self is a\xa0fallacy; there is no\xa0authentic self. Where does Jason stand? We discuss the Alter Ego Effect by former guest Todd Herman. The Wizard is Jason's word for the year. Did Jason\xa0attach values to the word for this year? Jason believes we put on armour to protect ourselves to survive. What is that protection? Jason is guilty of overthinking stuff. Des that get in the\xa0way of getting stuff done? Strategy today is driven by two things - bandwagonism or incrementalism. Jason explains. We are\xa0being kept\xa0captive by outdated views on productivity. What are the old\xa0notions? When we say it's a\xa0values conflict - could it just be an excuse not to get it\xa0done? How does Jason use his journal?\xa0How\xa0is it set up to log,\xa0capture, and\xa0retrieve ideas\xa0from the\xa0past? \xa0 \xa0 LINKS \xa0 Dr Jason Fox https://www.drjasonfox.com \xa0 Dr Jason Fox\xa0podcast\xa0 https://www.drjasonfox.com/podcast \xa0 Todd Herman https://toddherman.me/about/ \xa0 The Alter Ego Effect on Amazon https://amzn.to/2vrM0oS \xa0 The Mojo Radio Show on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/themojoradioshowpodcast \xa0 \xa0 The Mojo Radio Show http://www.themojoradioshow.com \xa0 The Mojo Radio Show on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/TheMojoRadioShowPodcast/ \xa0 The Mojo Radio Show on Twitter https://twitter.com/tmrspod \xa0 The Mojo Radio Show Answering Machine 08 7200 6656 08 7200 MOJO \xa0 The Mojo Radio Show copyright Gary Bertwistle & Darren Robertson \xa0 Products or companies we discuss are not paid endorsements.
