I think it’s fair to say that oftentimes when we hear the word ‘Belief’, we immediately associate it with something either Spiritual or Political – two of the three things my mother told me to never bring up in polite conversation.
And yet, whether we recognize it or not, all of us are navigating through life by operating on a set of beliefs. Some of them are constant but many evolve, and some even drop away all together.
As my guest this week explores in his latest book, we hold beliefs about things like relationships, family, and character that can make our lives richer, but can just as easily jade our view of others, ourselves, and the world writ-large.
After coaching Division 1 football for nearly a decade, Jack W. Williams entered the business world holding leadership roles as Vice President and COO of a regional service firm followed by becoming a SVP in a Fortune 500 company. Since that time he has led several businesses and served on three Boards.
In 1993 he formed the IDEALS Foundation which works with high school students in the area of leadership, role modeling and life / soft skills training.
In 2008, Jack left his position as president of a regional company to devote full-time to his Foundation and his consulting business, the Timbridge Group, and most recently he’s the author of “The Question: A Guide to Answering Life’s Most Important Question.”
It’s a wonderful conversation about the power of understanding our core-beliefs, why you can’t split your priorities in half, and the difference between Telling a person what to do and Teaching them what to do.
Enjoy the show.
