When we are critical and judgmental, we can aim it either at ourselves where we end up with a lot of self-doubts or we could aim our judgment at others, or often we do both.

18:37

When we’re in our learner mindset, we’re open-minded, we’re accepting, we’re curious, and we are positioned to be collaborative.

23:42

Where does the beginning of the process to switch from a judger into more of a learner mindset, and how do we go about making that switch?

24:10

31:43

In any change orientation, it’s key to be aware of where you are. This is the first pillar of emotional intelligence.
