Raising your AQ (Awareness Quotient)

Terry Bean is a TedX speaker, and the founder of Trybean, a coaching, consulting, and speaking agency designed to maximize human potential that focuses on maximizing human potential, not just sales.

This episode is about Awareness Quotient (AQ), and how Terry Bean learned about it. Terry emphasizes the importance of being aware of oneself, as well as being aware of what others know about you. He suggests prioritizing tasks and focusing on the five to six most important ones. He also suggests being aware of one's circadian rhythm and energy levels, and suggests activities such as meditation, yoga, and exercise that can help with increasing awareness. Lastly, he suggests being mindful of what and when you eat, as it can have a large impact on your energy levels.

 

Takeaways

 

1. AQ (Awareness Quotient) helps us get a much better feel of who we are (internal awareness) while making sure others know what a good opportunity is for us (external awareness).
2. Take care of the 5 pillars of your health: spiritual, mental, physical, relationship, and financial health.
3. More important than what you know and who you know is how you are known. Establish reputation and remain consistent with your message.
