George Couros shares a gym reflection about the Mindset Monday seasons - this new season will be focusing on the Innovator’s Mindset and what it actually means. Couros reflects on how he built on the work by Annie Brock and Heather Hundley to include aspects of the innovator’s mindset. 


This episode focuses on the idea of effort and throughout the next five weeks, Couros will take viewers and listeners through the five situations he wrote about in The Innovator’s Mindset: effort, challenges, obstacles, criticism, and the success of others. 


As you listen to or watch this episode, consider ways to overpromise and over-deliver. How can expectations be set incredibly high and then how can we surpass those things? 


Couros reminds us that the highest expectations that we should live up to are our own. This is something that we can develop in ourselves. 


This episode of Mindset Monday gives a mix of personal stories, professional connections, and learning - all focused on the idea of effort!
