  • Connect with Adam Quiney [here (https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamquiney/overlay/contact-info/)] Take Your Heroic Identity Revealer here (https://donnietuttle.com/). In this podcast interview, Donnie and Lord Adam Quiney discuss the concept of personality and its permanence. Lord Adam Quiney challenges the notion that personality is permanent and argues that people often get caught in the belief that it is. He shares a personal example of how he learned to adapt his behavior and developed certain patterns to cope with his fear of awkwardness and discomfort in social situations. Over time, these patterns became automatic and he started identifying himself as an introvert. They also touch upon the idea of playing both sides of the pendulum, where Lord Adam Quiney developed skills in superficial small talk to navigate certain situations, leading him to label himself as an extrovert. However, he points out that these labels and divisions don't truly reflect who we are at our core. Lord Adam Quiney expresses his thoughts on the StrengthsFinder assessment and suggests that while it can be helpful, it often combines someone's essence with survival mechanisms or strategies they have learned to employ. He encourages people to focus on how they want to experience life and not limit themselves to predefined personality constructs. The conversation then shifts to the idea of making life a game and removing the stress and pressure of striving to become something specific. Lord Adam Quiney shares his personal experience of realizing that he had created a successful life and practice without relying on hard work and hustle. He emphasizes the importance of being present with fears and acknowledging that the life one craves may not align with preconceived notions of what success should look like. The concept of ontological coaching and leadership is introduced, highlighting the study of being and how it operates below the surface of actions and behaviors. Lord Adam Quiney explains that through ontological coaching, coaches learn to listen, hear, speak, and be with people in a way that goes beyond surface-level tools and tactics. Donnie and Lord Adam Quiney agree that being is more important than doing and that once someone can own their being, actions and strategies naturally flow from that state. They discuss how owning the being can have transformative effects, such as in sales, where being steady and sure can inform all the necessary tactics without explicitly focusing on them. The podcast episode concludes with Lord Adam Quiney sharing a client story about a CEO who showed up to coaching with great commitment. He highlights the transformative power of being and the positive changes he has witnessed in his clients when they embrace their true being. Overall, this podcast delves into the concept of personality, the limitations of predefined labels, the importance of being versus doing, and the transformative potential of embracing one's true being.
