Achieving Clarity Podcast
Welcome to the Achieving Clarity Podcast. Hosted by Ben Morley, a retired U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel with 27 years flying the C-17 and C-141, missions to all seven continents, and now a national bestselling author, executive coach, and Lean Six Sigma consultant.
Each episode delivers a short, actionable idea you can use immediately in the cockpit of your career, your team, or your own life. Drawing on lessons from military leadership, high-stakes decision-making, and the process discipline of Lean Six Sigma, Ben breaks down what actually creates clarity, purpose, and effectiveness when the pressure is on.
No fluff. No filler. Just the brief—and the next step forward.

Steal Like An Artist
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we look at how the artist cultivates ideas for their work and how it can apply to you. What a good artist understands is that nothing comes from nowhere. All creative work builds on what came before. Nothing is completely original.
If we are free from the burden of trying to be completely original, to stop assuming that we must make something out of nothing, then we can embrace influence instead of running away from it.
