What can a rude talking parrot teach us about leadership, growth, and wisdom?

After a brief moment of reflection—and a glance at the turkey beside him—the parrot emerges with a completely different perspective. While the story will make you laugh, the lesson is serious. Too many people insist on learning every lesson the hard way. Wise people learn from the experiences of others. They pay attention to the consequences of poor decisions, the rewards of good choices, and the examples all around them. In this episode you'll learn: • Why wisdom often comes from observation • How great leaders learn from the mistakes of others • The importance of being coachable before adversity strikes • Why humility accelerates growth • How to avoid life's unnecessary "freezer moments" The question isn't whether life is teaching lessons. The question is whether we're paying attention. Never Stop Getting Better.
