Manifest Your Greatness

In this episode I dive into the differences between dopamine and oxytocin and how these hormones impact our sense of fulfillment and drive.While dopamine delivers short-lived rushes of personal achievement, oxytocin fosters a deeper, sustained sense of satisfaction derived from positively impacting others. That means balancing personal and professional goals with actions that support a greater good are key to leaving behind a lasting legacy.01:17 Understanding Dopamine and Its Effects03:45 The Power of Oxytocin05:19 Balancing Dopamine and Oxytocin for a Greater Good14:21 Making a Lasting Impact: Real-Life Applications19:59 My Challenge to You!

In this episode, I discuss the often overlooked and underestimated challenges we face in pursuit of our goals. Hurdles like negative thoughts, self-sabotage, ruminating on past failures and fixating on what we can't control constantly conspire to trip you up along your path towards greatness. Fortunately, there are some practical and actionable methods that you can use to discover and thwart your own negative intentions. 01:30 Understanding Self-Sabotage 02:37 Personal Example of Self-Sabotage 04:42 The Justification Trap 08:26 Overcoming Past Failures 11:34 The Role of Fear 13:11 Embracing Discomfort 16:40 The Importance of Flexibility in Planning Get your copy of my latest book, The Power of Reframing on Amazon.com here Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

In this episode of the Manifest Your Greatness podcast, I delve into the importance of incorporating a daily healing practice to manage stress and promote overall well-being.

In this episode I focus on distinguishing between 'thoughts' and 'thinking' and how this distinction impacts our daily lives. Thinking is an active process of interpreting information based on past experiences and knowledge, creating subjective realities. Thoughts however are new ideas we receive from beyond our analytical minds that hold the potential for new exciting realities. Like clearing a runway for an inbound aircraft to land, we need to create mental space in order to receive thoughts. 00:12 Understanding Thoughts vs. Thinking 01:25 The Power of Subjective Reality 04:27 How Our Thinking Shapes Our Feelings 06:32 The Impact of Thinking on Relationships and Stress 09:10 Creating Space for New Thoughts 16:13 Managing Stress and Emotions Through Mindful Thinking 18:18 Embracing New Thoughts for Breakthroughs Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

While passion fuels life's journey, it is the adherence to principles such as hard work, adaptability, and continuous learning that sustains long-term success. These same principles are invaluable when navigating life's numerous and often unexpected setbacks. When we ensure that our decisions are guided by our most honored, unwavering principles, we pave the way for a fulfilling and purpose-driven journey towards greatness. 00:45 The Catalyst of Change: A Personal Journey 02:29 Embracing the Layoff: A Turning Point 06:50 The Principle vs. Passion Debate 08:02 Risk and Reward: Rethinking Employment Security 10:51 Principles Over Passion: The Path to Success 15:04 Entrepreneurship and Risk Management 18:41 Principles, Passion, and Your Future Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

This episode delves into the inevitable pains and rewards of personal transformation. I discuss how transformation involves enduring both physical and psychological discomfort. However, pain associated with transformation in the pursuit of personal growth is temporary and the rewards long-lasting, whereas paid as a result of stagnation is compounding and chronic. While any goal worthy of pursuing includes discomfort, embracing transformation is the only avenue that leads to long lasting personal greatness 00:37 Understanding Transformation and Its Challenges 01:32 The Journey of Personal Upgrade: Becoming You 2.0 02:18 Embracing Life's Transitions for Growth 05:03 The Comfort in Routine vs. The Thrill of Change 07:06 Rediscovering the Excitement of the Unknown 08:49 Crafting Your Vision for You 2.0 Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

In this episode I share the counterintuitive but definitely not counterproductive approach of taking a step back when facing mental roadblocks or feeling stuck, especially when under pressure. When the stakes are high and ideas run low, the importance of engaging in playful, creative activities that are mentally stimulating but enjoyable, cannot be overstated. Rather than being a waste of time, activities like these allow the brain to subconsciously process challenges, potentially leading to creative breakthroughs. 00:33 Navigating Mental Roadblocks 01:18 The Power of Taking a Step Back 03:30 Engaging in Creative Activities for Breakthroughs 05:57 Personal Anecdote: A Breakthrough Moment 07:49 Embracing the Process: Giving Yourself Space and Time to Get Unstuck --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

In this episode I discuss the often overlooked yet crucial practice of taking time off for personal development and well-being. Stepping away from our fast-paced routines to recharge physically, emotionally, and mentally is a key ingredient to long term success. Breaks can enhance creativity, problem-solving abilities, and overall health while providing opportunities for introspection and alignment with personal values and goals. Pressing pause on your hustle from time to time gives you the priceless opportunity to evaluate whether you are living in harmony with your deepest desires and aspirations, or if you have unknowingly allowed other motivations to pull you off course. Rest and recovery is an essential aspect of self-care and a pathway to manifesting true greatness. 00:13 The Importance of Taking Time Off 00:49 Recharging Beyond Personal Satisfaction 01:02 Unlocking Creativity and Problem-Solving 01:20 The Power of Stillness and Reflection 01:42 Embracing Quietude for Breakthroughs 02:02 The Busy Life Dilemma 02:22 The Courage to Press Pause 03:05 True Breaks for Mental Health 03:58 Activities That Truly Refresh 04:44 Reflect and Realigning 07:09 Embracing Time Off --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

This episode focuses on how to navigate through difficult situations by utilizing tools and skills to help manifest inner greatness. I'll share personal experiences of overcoming a significant financial loss due to fraud, and illustrate the importance of skills such as surrendering to reality, centering, reframing challenges, and maintaining presence amidst chaos.

In this episode, esteemed guest Dr. Kimo Alameda discusses key challenges facing the local community of Hawai'i Island. Topics range from the island's housing crisis, renewable energy projects, to strengthening local businesses and the alarming rise of fentanyl-related deaths. Dr. Kimo shares how a tragic bicycle accident at a young age set in motion cascading experiences that led him to becoming a counselor, psychologist, and ultimately a visionary leader in healthcare. While many of the topics discussed during today's episode are explored within the context of Hawai'i Island, the universal nature of these topics is relevant to communities far beyond the shores of Hawai'i and offer insight into how everyone can actively engage in addressing similar challenges in their own communities. 04:20 Dr. Kimo's Early Life Experiences 08:25 Dr. Kimo's Career Shift and Contributions to Health Centers 12:18 Understanding Addiction and Fentanyl Crisis 18:05 Addressing the Island Housing Crisis 20:41 The Struggle of Home Ownership 21:43 One Solution: Accessory Dwelling Units 22:13 The Importance of Family Cohesion 23:24 The Promise and Pitfalls of Renewable Energy 26:08 The Need for Economic Sustainability 26:33 Empowering Local Businesses 29:19 The Challenges and Opportunities for Local Farmers 31:19 Three Pillars of a Vibrant Community: Live, Work & Play Learn more about Dr. Kimo Alameda here:https://www.kimoformayor.com/ Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

In this episode we explore the importance of tenacity and trajectory in our pursuit of life-transforming goals. Tenacity in this context is about going after something persistently but also in a balanced and efficient way to maintain longevity and performance. Trajectory in this sense refers to the path taken in achieving a goal which includes course correcting and adjusting as new information and experiences continue to refine and sometimes reshape our goals. Transformation in this formula is depicted not as a final stage but rather a continuous cycle of achievement and setting new goals for further growth. Both tenacity and trajectory are critical factors enabling this transformative journey to unfold. 02:18 The Three Key Factors: Tenacity, Trajectory, and Transformation 02:41 Understanding Tenacity 03:13 The Role of Trajectory 04:11 The Power of Transformation 04:39 The Importance of Goal Setting and Adaptability 06:08 The Concept of Tenacity Revisited 08:06 The Importance of Trajectory Adjustments 10:29 Understanding Transformation as a Continuous Process 15:33 The Challenge: Evaluating Your Tenacity and Trajectory Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact⁠⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

If you're like me, then you've probably established some audacious goals for this new year. With the best intensions, you've set out on the path of progress towards these goals only to be thwarted by setbacks related to their imposing scale and associated complexities. You may be realizing you've potentially bit off more than you can chew. Or, you may be questioning if a particular goal you've set is really the goal you truly desire. You may be tempted to give up on your goals when these questions of doubt arise, but hang in there. It's at times like these we stand to gain the most insight into what we're truly after. These moments help illuminate what a better your really looks like and how your goals may, or may not, be on your critical path to becoming.

We've all had the experience of setting a well-intended goal, creating a well thought out plan, and then not achieving the results we were after. If we reflect on why we came up short, we may ask ourselves questions like “What did I miss?” Or perhaps “Where did I go wrong?” Well imagine having a simple yet reliable roadmap to guide you step by step towards your desired results.  In today's episode I'm going to explore the SMART framework, and explain how you can use it to set goals with clarity thereby creating a pathway that maximizes your potential for success and growth. 03:14 Personal Story: My First Half Marathon 04:04 Identifying the Problem: Lack of Specificity 04:54 Introducing the SMART Goals Framework 05:47 Deep Dive into SMART Criteria 08:02 Applying SMART Goals to Real Life Scenarios 12:03 Time Management in SMART Goals Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact⁠⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

When you are struck by a new idea that sparks your creativity, and you swell with optimism as you contemplate the possibilities, it's easy to be swept away in the moment and want to embrace the idea with all you've got. But how do you know if that spark of inspiration is being fueled by genuine intuition, or by your ego masquerading as your intuition? In this episode, I explore how to discern between ego-driven ideas and intuition-driven ones, focusing on aspects such as motivation, emotion, time perspective and the paradigms of scarcity vs abundance. 03:03 Personal Story: Choosing Between Studying Business and Japanese Language 09:00 Understanding Ego and Intuition 10:05 Differentiating Between Ego and Intuition 13:35 Seeking Fulfillment VS External Validation Explore lots of additional resources to help you Manifest the Greatness That You Already Possess Deep Inside at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ To book your free coaching consultation with Curtis, visit ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://manifestyourgreatness.com/contact⁠⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/curtis-j-washington/support

What is it that you are meant to do? What activities do you do that bring out your spark from within? We all know certain things that we enjoy doing. And when we find ourselves doing things we'd rather not, we tell ourselves that we have to do those things and have no choice. But the truth is that every activity we participate in, whether we enjoy it or not, we do have a choice. The difference is that some of our choices are extrinsically motivated while others are intrinsically motivated. In today's episode, I'm going to share a powerful exercise that can help you identify and transform some of your extrinsically motivated activities into intrinsically motivated activities that you actually enjoy and look forward to.

We all know that we are the most vulnerable when we are stressed. Consequently, in these moments of weakness we all are more susceptible to making choices that self-sabotage our best intentions. HALT stands for Hungry, Angry, Lonely and Tired. These are not only the most common stressors, but also the most cognitively debilitating. In today's episode I'll explore how the HALT method, which was originally created as part of Alcoholic Anonymous' renown 12-Step Principles of Recovery, can be effectively leveraged by anyone to avoid the adverse effects of the most common, pervasive and potentially destructive stressors that routinely impact us all.

When setting an ambitious, audacious goal, it's easy to feel from time to time that it's too lofty to achieve. Every time that doubt surfaces, focus, discipline and progress towards that goal will suffer. That's why it's important to continue to dig deep and to focus on leveling up a little each day. Like compound interest, a 5% improvement in your performance over yesterday, last week, or last month translates into exponential growth over time. Self reflecting, self evaluating (as opposed to self criticizing/judging), and then consistently making what may seem like negligible course corrections, skill upgrades, or efficiency improvements here and there are essential to catapult yourself towards your goals. In this episode I will introduce several effective approaches that will help you achieve more by making small, simple tweaks to your daily routine. Remember, It's impossible to achieve the life that you truly want without upgrading the way you currently live.

Each new day brings with it new, often unforeseen challenges which can make it difficult to start striving for a meaningful new goal. What's more, your schedule seems to be overloaded for the foreseeable future with so many other "important" things. It can be tempting to postpone embarking on an exciting, potentially life-enriching journey because you don't know where to start, or because there's just too much else going on and it doesn't feel like the right time. The truth is, it's never the right time to shake things up for the sake of expanding your horizons, learning new skills, or committing to a major lifestyle change. The time to commit to taking the next step in your journey of continuous improvement is now.
