Episode 24 (15:45) - Why mental clarity and presence give top performance
What stops you from reaching your goals? How do you remove stops and distractions? How do you stop distracting yourself when you must be at peak performance? How is esports different from more physical sports when it comes to mental training?
These are some of the elements I cover in this podcast episode. Drawing from decades of coaching and mental training of top performers, I reflect on what can help you gain sharp focus and reach your goals.

Episode 19 (9:05) - On global warming
At the tail end of my interview (https://isene.org/2019/02/RelevantMen.html) on Annmarie Bhola's Breaking Ground podcast, she asked me about my views on global warming. We had an interesting exchange that turned out as a podcast in its own right. We decided it would be a nice joint venture to present this interview on Geir's Everything.

Not only in RPGs, but in life in general - improvisation is an invaluable skill that will help you in contless situation. But how do you balance improvisation, planning and the role-playing game system itself? What is the benefits of planning, and when do you simply "wing it"?

Episode 13 (39:20) - Can collaboration be good business?
Why is collaboration good business? Why share? What does shipping have in common with the pharmaceutical industry?
What is “ant hill innovation”, and how does that concept relate to the IT industry?
In this podcast I cover a lot of ground - from the two types of collaboration and sharing to examples of industries where collaboration is common place to industries where it is shunned. I talk about Intellectual Property Rights; patents, copyright and trade marks. I cover examples of how those concepts can in fact stifle innovation and how limiting such protections can lead to more prosperity. Sharing can be more than just caring, it can be good and sound business.
