Rob continues his fascinating look at the philosophies of Leo Tolstoy, and the insightful ways in which his teachings can positively impact coaching and mentoring practices.
In this episode, Rob discusses the importance of self-knowledge, the power of words, why we should obey the voice of our conscience, and why we should always stand by our own philosophies.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Every journey begins with self-knowledge. We must know ourselves before we can effectively understand our ability to influence.
- Words have the power to create worlds, change lives and shape those around us. Never underestimate the value of well-chosen language.
- Knowledge should not be measured in quantity, but quality. Focus your attention on the things that matter and build your library of knowledge around it.
- Understanding rights and responsibilities is fundamental to societal success, organisational success, and individual happiness and progress.
