Hockey, Communication, and Unconditional Love with TEDx Speaker, Doug Gordon - Pt.1

In this episode of Wake Up To Real Love, Dawn is joined by an award-winning and internationally renowned professional consultant, TEDx speaker,  and CEO and corporate trainer, Doug Gordon. Together they discuss Doug’s journey from national hockey player to certified mental wellness practitioner, why our parents are teachers and why you should give out unconditional love without expectation.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• There are lots of things that you can learn from playing in a sports team that can be brought into the corporate world as well. Managing your emotions and controlling your state of mind is one.
• Communication and presentation skills are very important in sales the better you present the more money you’re going to make. Why? Because with better communication comes more aligned and positive relationships.
• Our parents are teachers and everybody has their own past relationships and experiences that are seen from different angles and perspectives in life. So always ask the question to understand someone, rather than making assumptions.
• So many people experience such hardship and challenges in their life that they end up carrying baggage around. But you have to figure out how to have resilience and create results and aincredible life.
• Give without the expectation of anything in return, that's unconditional love. Unconditional love is not transactional, it’s given out of the love to help, support and encourage your partner.
