Here we go. This is your transformation station. I am your host on this journey to a better life, a better version of ourselves. And on today's episode, we are on week 30. This is your week 30 call to action to your transformation. We are challenging ourselves every day to make ourselves better. And this week's challenge. We are looking to define our own leadership philosophy, our value proposition, our brand. And how do we do that? First things

first? Do

you wanna know what a million bucks feels like to have inside your hands? One? That'd be pretty damn hard to actually hold a million dollars, but to feel like a million bucks. You should have felt that feeling last week on that challenge, getting out there and motivate somebody, somebody outside your social group, tell them that they're doing a good job and they need to keep up the good work. Now try to, can do it consistently. You did it once. Good job. You get a pat on the back now stay on top of it and do it. Do it for somebody new every day and don't do it because I told you to do it because you want to, that is what's going to transform your character. Character development is this week's focused where we look into defining our philosophy. We are dividing our philosophy through Paul Adler's critical thinking framework. I will link this information in the show notes. We are going to utilize a critical thinking model and we are going to rehearse it, regurgitate it, and start implementing it into our daily lives. It will be the underpinning factor on how you view everything. This is going to help you grow into your next new version. Your next improved version of yourselves, critical thinking is the most. Of thinking about any subject content or problem in which the thinker improves the quality of his or her thinking by skillfully taking charge of the structure inherent in the thinking imposing intellectual standards upon them, we are going to incorporate three principles, the elements of thought. Our intellectual standard that should be applied to the elements of reasoning. And lastly, the intellectual traits, this will be associated with a well cultivated, critical thinker, that results from being consistent and discipline in the application of the intellectual standards to the elements of thought, that means you are going to be doing this daily seven day challenge. Before I share this information. I want your commitment to stay true to this for seven days, seven consecutive days. If you miss one, you start over. If you can stay true to this for seven consecutive days, you will begin. Your transformation, but why, why start with developing our critical thinking out of everything? If we were to say, I can teach you how to speak. If you want to read faster, or would you like to learn how to read more efficiently and understand the content that you're reading? What would you choose? You probably would start with the crawl walk, run theory, right? You would want to be able to understand what you're reading before you can start reading quickly. This is what we're doing. We are defining our philosophy through a universal intellectual standard in today's society. We have a massive amount of information. We are subject to the media where you're subject to people's opinions. We're subject to podcasts such as your transformation stage. Guy, we came and forget biases and logical fallacies, but that's a whole nother monster. We need to look at our elements of thought our reasoning, we have to take into account. All of our reasoning has a purpose. All of our reason has attempt to figure something out, to settle some question, to solve some sort of a problem. All the reasoning is based on assumptions. All the reason is done from a point of view is based on data, information and evidence. All the reason is expressed through and shaped by concepts and ideas. All of our reasoning contains inferences interpretations and which we draw conclusions and give meaning to death. Within all that it leads somewhere and has implications and consequences. We have to develop a universal intellectual standard and the way we think and the way we hold ourselves accountable. And we are going to do that through our elements of thought, to determine the quality of our reasons. You want to have these intellectual standards in the back of your mind and everything you do, and every thought you think clarity, could you elaborate? Could you illustrate what you mean? Could you give me an example accurate? How can we check on that? How can we find out if that's true? How can we verify or test that theory? Precision, could you be more specific? Could you give me more details? Could you be more exact depth? What factors make this difficult? What are some of the complexities of this question? What are some of the difficulties we need to deal with? Relevance? How does that relate to the problem? How does that bear on the question? How does that help us with the issue breadth? Do we need to look at this from another perspective? Do we need to consider another point of view? Do we need to look at this in other ways, logic, does this all make sense? Does your first paragraph fit in with the last one? Just what you say, follow from the evidence sniffing. Is this the most important problem to consider? Is this the central idea to focus on which of these facts are most important? Lastly, fairness is my thinking justifiable to the context am I taking to account? The thinking of others is my purpose fair given to the situation in my, using my conscience. And keeping with educated usage or my distorting them to get what I want being consistent in the application of standard. Thinking to the elements of thinking was assault in the development of intellectual traits. These are the, the law. These are the intellectual traits I have set for myself. As my future self to carry intellectual humility, intellectual courage, intellectual empathy, intellectual autonomy, intellectual integrity, intellectual perseverance confidence in my reason and fair mindedness. You will start to develop these following characteristics. You will start to raise vital questions and problems. You will formulate them clearly, and precisely you will gather and assess relevant information using abstract ideas to UN. Effectively come to a well-reasoned conclusion and solutions, you'll test them against relevant criteria in a standard thing. Open-mindedly within alternative systems of thought, recognize and assessing a need to be. There are assumptions, the implications, practical consequences. You will begin to communicate effectively with others, figuring out a solutions to complex problems. Doing this staying consistent. This is your creed, your morning routine. This is the heart and soul of your morning routine right here. Every week you will be brought

key pieces.

Of the life-changing advice that will change you for the rest of your life. If you stay consistent with every week's challenge, you will begin living your future self today, except I'm only one step ahead, just so I ensure. You are getting the right information.
