We just returned from a whirlwind weekend in Pittsburgh for MAPS Coaching Spring Masterminds. This is “where like-minded individuals meet to crowdsource best-practice solutions to their most pressing business planning problems.”
And in true Team Callahan style we mixed in a little play with our work.
Here are some of our favorite nuggets, ideas, and quotes from the event:
Valorie Kondos Field
(Former Head Coach of gymnastics at UCLA)
- “When you count your blessings every single day you starve out the voices of stress, anxiety, etc.”
- “Athletics is a master class in life lessons that you will not learn in a classroom.”
- “Change your mind, change your outcome.”
Brianna Wiest
(Author of “The Mountain is You”)
- “Even when we feel we are at max capacity we are only at 10% of our true potential. Expand your perimeter of possibility. We have no idea what we are truly capable of.”
- “Widen the gap between your reaction (emotion) and your response.”
- “We prepare the child for the path. We do not prepare the path for the child.”
Jen Davis
(VP of MAPS Coaching at KW)
- “When it gets hard, remember what you wanted when you started.”
- Highly productive people do three things:
- They protect their mindset
- They protect the mindset of their clients
- They protect the mindset of their Team
Jordan Freed
(Our very own business Coach)
- “Growth is the intentional expansion of your comfort zone.”
Dusty Oglesby
(Director of BOLD)
- “You’re responsible for the climate of your mind.”
- “Who do you choose to become? And who are you becoming in the process?”
- “You’re going to have high notes and low notes in your life. Don’t miss the beauty of the symphony or the becoming.”
And then for a little play we headed over to the Pittsburgh Steelers stadium for a VIP experience and happy hour with our KW MAPS Coaching friends.
So long Pittsburgh!
