To aspire means to seek to attain or accomplish a particular goal, and to aspire higher is to dream bigger and to soar. It's also the name of a book by Ken Lindner, one of the world's most respected and successful broadcast agents, and in this episode Ken makes it clear that it all comes down to the power of choices and making decisions.
Key takeaways:
- Our life choices and decisions impact our feelings of self-esteem, self-love and self-image
- Talent is potential and the key to realizing potential is making great choices that go along with the talent.
- Eyesight isn’t necessarily insight
- Find your advocates and allies
- You will grow when you are ready to grow
Strategy is essential to making good choices and Ken, a star tennis player in college, shares this wonderful anecdote about how he once beat Arthur Ashe in a tournament, then ranked 5th in the world:
I had seen him play in a tournament and I actually charted out how he hit his shots, where he hit his shots...I knew where he was gonna go and I knew that when I would approach on his backhand nine times out of ten, he was going to go down the line on his attempted approach. He didn't like changing it up to go cross court. So the problem was I sort of ambushed him because I knew everything about him. He knew nothing about me and I was very comfortable. I was good enough at that time to execute my game plan well enough to win the set.
Ken is the founder and CEO of one of the world’s most well-respected and successful television news and hosting agencies, Ken Lindner & Associates, Inc. (“KLA”).
