A New & Better Way to Make Commitments & The Magic of Math




Something You Should Know show

Summary: What do you think of when you think about making commitment? To me, commitment means hard work and sacrifice with a hope of something good happening later. But maybe that’s not the best way to look at it. Commitment is necessary, so maybe we need a better way of thinking about it – or a better way to make peace with the idea of commitment. Listen to my conversation with Heidi Reeder author of Commit to Win and I think you will come away a fresh view of commitment. Also, how healthy are you? It’s an important question to ask – because you are probably right whatever your answer is. Also on the podcast today, the science of making a good first impression. And, if you are like me, you didn’t love math in school. But we are going to talk with Professor Arthur Benjamin author of The Magic of Math who is going to convince you – or try to anyway – that math is fun and as an adult, you do use a lot of what you learned in school.
