Your Best Self (YBS): Recent Episodes
Wilfred Bain
What does being your best self mean? This feels like a loaded phrase. Does it mean that I have my finances together? Does it mean that I am great in my relationships? Am I succeeding in my career? What about my finances, does being my best self mean that I have my finances figured out?
This is what we will talk about in 'Your Best Self'. We'll explore career, finances, relationships, faith and everything that makes up the whole person.
Listen, Learn and Enjoy!
In this episode we discuss being positioned for value. We can all receive value from many different sources. So, the question is, are you positioned for value?
This podcast episode recounts an experience where I pre-judged a person without understanding their story.
The story of an old colleague of mine who in one moment of poor judgment, lost two jobs at the same time.
We all want success, but it takes work. And we should not be tempted to just to be as good as everybody else, but to be our best selves to the limit!
One of the things I’ve learned in my career (and life) is that feedback, whether you perceive it to be positive or negative, is part of the recipe for success. It is for this reason that every time I get to know somebody, or begin to work closely with somebody, I always tell them the same thing: “Do not be afraid to tell me that I have something in my nose.”.
In this episode we're discussing the genesis of why I tell people to do that and why feedback is so vital to every relationship and situations.
We all know ways in which people can get in their own way. We know either from getting in our own way, or watching others. This series was inspired by a both a period of extreme self-awareness and watching a few colleagues harm themselves. I hope that all those who listen gain some insights and are inspired to look inward.
