概要

It sounds simple, yet it’s amazing how many people take advice from someone who is an absolute mess.

More than 20 years ago, John Addison spoke at a convention in Oklahoma City, shortly after becoming co-CEO of Primerica. The speech was recorded, and it became the thing he has received more feedback on than anything else he’s ever done. People kept asking him to update it, and he did, because the message matters more now than it did then.

In 2002, social media was barely a blip. Today, the craziest ideas and the worst advice are a few seconds away on any platform. This six-part series is a reminder to be deliberate about who you listen to, and it’s a call for leaders who are positive, focused, and willing to tell people the truth.

Whether you lead a company, a team, or a family, who you listen to shapes where you end up.

    When someone said “we have a crisis,” John’s first question was “how many people are dead?” In this closing episode, he explains the difference between a crisis, a problem, and a situation, and why leaders should run toward adversity. He also describes the happiest time of his life, when money was tight and Christmas presents came from Big Lots, and argues that happiness can’t wait for better circumstances. If you take nothing else from the series, take this one.

    Some people fill your battery and some drain it. John talks about the power of association, and the equally real power of dis-association: how to let go of other people’s negativity without being a jerk, how to choose where your energy goes after the pandemic, and what the trees he plants on his farm taught him about knowing when you’re looking at a dead tree.
