Every day, we're faced with the reality that humanity is divided right now, possibly more than ever. I'm seeing people be outright hateful to each other, in ways I've simply never seen before. Even wishing harm upon others has become all too common. I fear that humanity is losing the shared values that are necessary for us to sustain peace and unity.  If you and I aren't the change we want to see in the world—if we don't stand for love, compassion, respect, forgiveness, freedom, and allowing each other the dignity to each choose how we live our lives—we, as a species, may be in more trouble than any of us can even imagine.  But how can we love, respect, and forgive people who have wronged us, or who we view as a threat to our own safety? How can we honor our own values while getting along with people who may not share our values? Is it possible for us to remember that we are ALL fundamentally the same—human beings on this journey we call life—and to focus on and find common ground in our shared humanity, as opposed to our relatively superficial differences?  In today's episode, I want to unpack these questions and really try to answer them. It starts with you, and it starts with me. I want to talk about how we treat and view other people, the bigger picture of what's going on with humanity, and what we can do to create unity and stop sowing division during this critical time in history. Key Takeaways Why focusing on our differences instead of our commonalities is driving us apart. How the media is conditioning us to fear, hate, and wish harm on others. Why choosing to view people from a space of unconditional love doesn't condone their behavior—and why hating someone hurts you more than them. The value of truly living life in alignment with your values. Why we're all deserving of unconditional love.

Can you remember that indescribable feeling of first falling in love with someone? What if that peak state could be activated within you, at any given time?  We often associate the word love with a romantic relationship. And when we fall in love with someone, we give all the credit for those feelings to that person. But the other person is really just the stimulus for achieving that state of being. The truth is, that state is always available to us, and some would argue, it's our default spiritual state.  We've been talking a lot lately about how to harness your ability to choose how you experience each moment of your life, regardless of your outer circumstances. Today, we're going to dive deeper into that theme from a different angle, specifically discussing how you can choose to make love your default way of experiencing life, even when life is difficult (aka sucks). Key Takeaways Why love in our society is misunderstood and almost always thought of in terms of romantic love—and why love is our fundamental state. How COVID has helped me live in a state of love and joy, even as I've faced setbacks and challenges. How approaching meditation in a different way can help you get into an optimal state. Why living intentionally and consciously accepting life as it is can help you stop emotions from getting the best of you.

For today's podcast, I'm inviting you to choose to be either Person A or Person B, addressing the implications of the choice you make, and sharing insights on how to effectively choose.  There are huge differences between these two people, and choosing to be one over the other can determine our quality of life. For me, I've found that the conscious choice makes all the difference in my quality of life, my mental and emotional well-being, my degree of success and almost every other aspect of my being. In this episode, I want to give you an eye-opening look into how you are choosing to show up and who you're choosing to be, no matter what's going on in the world or in your life. Key Takeaways How we as human beings can choose how we feel about every moment of our lives. Why no one consciously chooses unhappiness, and what really makes us unhappy. Wisdom from Margaret Wheatley's book, Who Do We Choose To Be? How to answer a question as loaded as “What should we focus on?” Why people can survive tragedy without being resigned to letting it define them.

Today's podcast covers precisely how to experience two (2) types of freedom that we all want: Outer Freedom and Inner Freedom. Outer Freedom is the ability to get yourself to do what you need to do—even when you don't feel like it—in order to produce the results, outcomes, and circumstances that you want, in every aspect of your life. Inner Freedom is the ability to get yourself to feel exactly how you want to feel (happy, confident, calm, etc.), regardless of what's happening in your life. How do you get yourself to do what you need to do–even when you don't feel motivated to do something? When you can do things that produce results, you have outer freedom. How do you get yourself to feel the emotional and mental states that would enable you to enjoy this one life you've been given, even in the midst of tragedy, trauma, and forces outside of your control? When you access your ability to choose the way you feel, regardless of your circumstances, you have inner freedom. In today's conversation, I'm going to share with you the most effective strategy I've ever implemented to achieve outer freedom. Then, I'm going to walk you through seven steps, in the form of questions, that you can use to quickly (if not immediately) access the inner freedom you were born with. Key Takeaways How I motivate myself to get things done, even when I don't want to do them–and why it's okay to not be perfect. How to get yourself to start doing the things you don't want to do–and why committing to action while being unattached to results can make all the difference. Why fear inevitably leads us to procrastinate. Questions to ask yourself on your journey to inner freedom. And so… much… more! :^) Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/393 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Today's episode is a very real, raw, and authentic conversation with someone who's become a total inspiration to me, Eric Hansen. Despite living through unimaginable circumstances, he has figured out how to embody what I've been talking about for the past year… Inner Freedom.  Eric is a recovering drug addict who began using at the age of 12, raised by his mother who was also an addict. He has been homeless multiple times, and he's been in and out of jail and prison. While he was in prison, he discovered this podcast, and it transformed his outlook on life.  Currently out for four months, employed, and living in a halfway house, Eric is still navigating difficult health struggles and various painful consequences of his previous actions. However, his internal quality of life and his ability to experience the inner freedom that we all seek, are truly exceptional. He's building a following in the Miracle Morning Community Facebook group, where he has posted every single day, for 96 consecutive days.  I've been so inspired by him that I knew I needed to talk to him on the very same podcast that changed his life.  In this extraordinary conversation, Eric tells the story of how he fell from success to homelessness, how to recover from hitting rock-bottom, and how to truly take responsibility for–and choose how we experience–our lives. Key Takeaways How Eric discovered the Achieve Your Goals podcast while in prison, and the immediate impact it had on him. What the Miracle Morning has done for Eric that nothing else did. How Eric's career in sales thrived as he fell further and further into cocaine addiction and his family fell apart. How Eric stays accountable to himself, even in the toughest times. How Eric was able to further his education during his most recent stint in jail–and why episode #338 of this show, “Freedom from Your Emotional Pain,” impacted him like nothing else.

“How's life?” can often be a loaded question, especially with the state of the world right now. If you ask most people, they'll run through an inventory of their circumstances. You might hear them talk about what's going well, but, more often than not, you'll hear about their problems, financial challenges, difficulties at work, struggles in their marriage, or other less-than-stellar circumstances.  And when we're not talking about our problems/circumstances, we're thinking about them. We tend to listen to the voice in our head, stressing about the present and worrying about the future, and unconsciously allowing our emotional well-being to suffer.  But what if there is more to life than our circumstances? What if life is actually the experience we're having in the present moment? And what if you could learn how to transcend the voice in your head and live the majority of your life in the present moment?  In today's episode, I want to teach you two techniques you can use to stop the voice in your head from taking over and give you the power to truly live in the present moment. Even if you're already familiar with them, I want you to look at them in a new way, combine them, and discover how they can help you be here now–and live free from fear, stress, and anxiety. Key Takeaways How to assess how often you're fully present.  Where stress, fear, overwhelm, and regret come from.  Why our brains are prone to amplifying and focusing on problems when we try to solve them. How to not let the voice in your head create your reality.  How a mantra can help you bring your life into alignment on your terms.  My 7-day challenge that will enable you to begin quickly living in the present moment.

When you're experiencing stress, fear, anxiety, overwhelm, depression, or any other challenging emotional state, how can you regain control of the way you feel?   Today was supposed to be another “Ask Me Anything” episode, where I answer listener questions. However, as I began to address the first question: What do you believe about Jesus, God, and the Bible, I found myself thinking about the difficult situations and resulting emotions that many people are facing right now.  If you've experienced emotional distress, are concerned with the future, or are afraid of the unknown, today's episode will provide you with some practical advice you can use to rise above your challenges and take control of your emotional state. Key Takeaways Why I don't identify with any political party or religious sect—and how to find your own truth. How we create layers of protection, to protect our psyche, over the course of our lives. Why it's so important to get back in touch with who you really are. How inner freedom gives you the power to choose how to experience life in any given moment. What to do when your emotional state isn't serving you—and how to double down on taking control of your emotions during challenging times.

Today's episode of the podcast is going to cover three somewhat random and unrelated (yet very important) topics. I'm talking about: Four profound lessons learned from the BEST vacation of my life – and how you can immediately apply them to enhance your daily life. Major disruptions in our food supply chain and how to prepare for the very realistic possibility of coming food shortages. Why the book I'm reading right now is SO good that it may have led me to stop writing my newest book. Why these topics? In short, they all tie back to health, safety, freedom, and happiness.  Key Takeaways Four guiding principles to enhance your everyday life. What to consider when it comes to adding value to your loved one's life in really simple but meaningful ways. How to “eat for energy” and why I'm so intentional about the foods I consume (and exactly what I eat from when I wake up until I go to bed). Why you have the power to choose your perspective and interpret life however you choose. How I've been preparing for potential food emergencies without becoming a paranoid prepper. Why The Inner Work has had such a huge impact on me—and how to make sense of when other people appear to have received the same message from the universe that you have.

Do you consider yourself to be an optimist, a pessimist, or a realist? Optimism, pessimism, and realism are three different paradigms that impact how we approach life and interpret life's events. For some, they're even identities. When we face difficult times, our dominant paradigm tends to become amplified, which can be the determining factor in whether we suffer or thrive. I've experienced this in a unique way. For many years of my life, I was what I would call a delusional optimist. While this helped me through some difficult times, it also stopped me from healthily processing negative emotions and events, and I had to learn quite a few tough lessons the hard way. In this episode, I want to dive deep into the differences between optimism, pessimism, and realism–and help you identify how these paradigms can be most useful and effective as you optimize and make the most of the life you live. Key Takeaways What it really means to be an optimist, a pessimist, or a realist. Why so many self-identified realists are focused on the negative–and why it's just as realistic to be excited about the possibilities and positives in life. The dangers of blind or delusional optimism–and how it can make it extremely difficult to process or make sense of negative emotions. An exercise you can do to truly understand what's going on in your life and reframe your reality. The genius of being able to hold two opposing ideas in your mind simultaneously. The ABCs of realistic optimism.

Would you say that you're truly happy? In 2020, I got to a place where I was so depressed that I told my wife and my friends, “I don't remember what it feels like to be happy.” That was after I had already sent my wife a desperate text message one night that read, “I don't want to worry you, but I feel like I don't want to live, and I don't know what to do.”  I was so scared that I'd never be able to get back to a place of happiness again and couldn't remember how to get there. But over the course of the past year, I've gone from being the most unhappy I've ever been to arguably the happiest I've ever been in my life. It wasn't a change in circumstances that led me there, it was a change in how I approach and view my life. In today's episode of the podcast, I want to share the three steps I took to get from being completely unhappy to feeling like I'm living life in a state of joy, peace, love, and gratitude—everything that makes up the feeling of happiness. Key Takeaways Why two people whose lives look exactly the same often feel completely different. Why happy people find joy in everything they do and unhappy people constantly experience emotional turmoil. The reason why there's no cookie cutter approach to happiness—and how you can remove the obstacles that stop you from feeling happy. The power of choosing to be happy—and what this actually entails. What happens when we accept the unchangeable, stop resisting reality, and be at peace with things exactly as they are. How to find joy in everything you do and make every moment the best moment of your life.

Today I'm talking with Gino Wickman, arguably one of the most influential entrepreneurs in modern history and bestselling author of Traction, Get a Grip, and Rocket Fuel.

Let's be honest, life can really suck sometimes. Life can be difficult. On our worst days, life can feel downright unbearable. So, how can we be happy and enjoy our lives, more often than not? On last week's podcast, we began to answer this question by exploring How to Make Every Moment the Best Moment of Your Life (in case you missed that episode, I highly recommend you listen to it here first before you dive into this one).  This week, we're picking up where last week left off. By evaluating what enabled me to go to bed the other night, feeling like I had lived my best day ever, I've found a repeatable formula you can use to create the best day of your life, on any given day.  Today I'm sharing with you what I now do that enables me to make any day the best day of my life, why I do it, and how you can too. Key Takeaways Why the best day of your life exists in isolation and not in comparison to the other days you've lived. How to stop the things that are all but guaranteed to happen from ruining the best day of your life. (e.g. traffic, disappointments, difficult people, etc.) Why living in alignment with your values is the key to experiencing a feeling of total satisfaction, fulfillment, and contentment. The common obstacles to living your best day and how to tackle them, one by one. The three-step formula for living the best day of your life.

If I were to ask you to recall the best moment of your life, what comes to mind…? I think most people would recall a significant event or occasion, such as the birth of a child, their wedding day, running a marathon, or the day that they got to ______ (fill in the blank with some exceptional experience). For most, the best moment would likely be an event or circumstance and the positive emotions they experienced as a result, which prompts them to identify it as their best moment. But what if the best moment of your life wasn't measured by external circumstances? What if it was something you chose rather than something that occurred randomly? If that were the case, could one choose to make any, or every moment the best moment of their life? Might that be possible? And if it was possible to choose to experience any moment as the best moment of your life, if you had that ability, what would be the repercussions of using that ability daily? How might it impact the quality of your life? Today, we're exploring this idea of the best moment of your life; what it's about, if we have the power to create and experience it, if it's left to chance, and if it's random. I'm also going to share why people struggle with implementing this concept, and how you can overcome the struggles in a way that can significantly and immediately enhance the quality of your life. Ultimately, in this episode I share how you can begin experiencing any moment as the best moment of your life—literally—even during extremely difficult circumstances. Key Takeaways Why pitting external circumstances against the internal experience is key to achieving inner freedom—and why inner freedom is (arguably) more important than your external circumstances. How to create your inner experience during trying and emotionally painful times. The power of accepting the moment as-is to invite emotional peace, inner peace, and emotional freedom. How to be an island of sanity for the people closest to you in chaotic times. Ways to make any given moment the best moment of your life and live in a state of perpetual fulfillment.

A few weeks ago, I did a podcast episode where I shared with you a behind-the-scenes look at my next book. On that episode, I announced that we're going to try a new “Ask Me Anything” format on the podcast, and I invited you to submit your questions, with a promise to answer them on future episodes.  Today is our first “Ask Me Anything” episode and I'm answering your questions—and over the last few weeks, y'all have sent in A LOT of questions! :^)  The questions I'm answering today are about finding purpose in life, emotional intelligence, optimizing your mindset, and a number of other topics.  If you would like to ask me a question, please go to HalElrod.com/AMA to submit it. Depending on how this goes, I'll keep a running list of questions and answer as many as I can—perhaps as often as once or twice a month! Key Takeaways How to find purpose and hope in an uncertain future—and why you get to decide what your life is all about. How to redefine success by defining your values. What we can do to learn optimism and develop internal motivation to live out unwavering faith in the face of worry, doubt, and negativity. How to separate yourself from outcomes as you work to hit your goals—and why committing to the process without getting attached to the result is the secret to success. My simple strategy to ensure that I drink enough water to stay hydrated. How to write an affirmation to help ensure you will commit yourself to achieve your goal, no matter how challenging it is.

Have you ever taken the time to examine your identity and how it’s impacted your life? For most of us, that’s not something we ever even think of doing. Our identity kind of runs in the background, and yet it impacts everything we do.  Every day we show up and live our lives based on who we believe we are and how we perceive ourselves—and these beliefs can either help us or hurt us. In essence, what we believe about ourselves—good OR bad—is what we become. Today, we’re going to bring our unexamined identities to the surface and I’m going to share actionable steps you can take to intentionally and strategically upgrade your identity in order to upgrade your reality. Key Takeaways How anyone can upgrade their identity to improve any aspect of their life. Why so many top performers activate an “alter ego” so they can perform at their best. How I upgraded my identity as a father to transcend mediocrity and show up for my kids as “Superdad.” How you can conceptualize what it means to be a peak performer in any environment and define your ideal identity. What you can do to create an opportunity for virtually instant transformation. The four simple steps you can take to identify which aspects of your identity you need to improve, what might be holding you back, what you want to change, and how to live it.

Ever since my last book published (The Miracle Equation), I’ve been working on a new book that I truly believe will be my most important contribution to date. Recently, I had a bit of an unconventional idea, which is for you, me, and our community to co-create the book together. In order to do that, I’ve already been sharing and testing concepts from the book on this podcast over the last few months, and on today’s episode I want to go one step further: I want to break down the current manuscript with you, chapter-by-chapter, and get your thoughts and feedback. As of now, the book is tentatively titled The Miracle Life and is about showing you how to experience what I call “true freedom” by accessing your inherent ability to choose how you experience life in every moment, regardless of your circumstances. Also, as part of the process of co-creating this book with you, I’ll be doing an “Ask Me Anything” episode soon, to learn what you most want help with. And I set up a page for you to submit any question you have for me. So, if you have a question that you’d like to ask me—any question at all—please submit it at HalElrod.com/AMA. I look forward to answering your question on an upcoming podcast episode! KEY TAKEAWAYS The factors that hold us back from experiencing true freedom. What it means to achieve the “next level” of success and fulfillment in the most important area(s) of your life—and how to make that happen. The value of changing the rules of how you play the game of life. How to find true joy in the perfection of every moment, exactly as it is. Why this new book will NOT end in a 30-day Challenge, but instead it will be a 30-day Sabbatical.

Finding the balance between work life and family life isn’t always easy. Whether you’re a father, a mother, or a spouse without kids, there’s no feeling quite like that of thriving in your personal relationships. But it takes hard work, setting priorities, and a strong community to truly thrive.  Today, I’m speaking to one of my closest friends, Jon Vroman. We just spent four days together at a retreat led by his organization, Front Row Dads – a group for entrepreneurial-minded dads who believe in family first. Since 2016, I’ve watched Jon help men and their families learn, grow, and level up.  In this conversation, Jon and I talk about what he’s learned from five years of leading Front Row Dads. You’ll learn how to create breakthroughs in your relationships, rethink the act of resolving conflict, improve your emotional intelligence, and discover actionable strategies to enhance and even master your family life.  And if you like this episode, Jon and I will also be hosting a FREE online group masterclass—specifically for husband and fathers—called “Family Man Mastery” on Tuesday, June 1st at 12:00 p.m. EST. If you’re interested, you can go to FrontRowDads.com/Hal to sign up now. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: The importance of modeling good relationships for your kids, no matter what kind of family you have. How to transform your marriage by focusing on being the perfect partner for your spouse. How to unpack and make sense of what happens when you’re triggered. How to reframe situations when you feel like you’re truly out of alignment with your spouse. What you can do to build a legacy in real-time for your children to treasure in the years and decades to come. And much more! :^) Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/377 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

How does one go from completely lacking confidence and not using their voice to being able to effectively inspire, lead, and influence others? How do you get over your fear of saying the wrong thing, or feeling unqualified? And how do you transform yourself, become fearless, and help others change their lives for the better? Here to help me answer these questions is my good friend, Brianna Greenspan. Brianna and I first met when she hired me to be her life & business coach over 15 years ago. Now, she uses her voice to further the Miracle Morning mission, hosting the official Miracle Morning Clubhouse room for over 2,000 people each day (live from 8:00-10:00 a.m. Eastern time). She is also the co-creator of The Miracle Morning Art of Affirmations, a positive affirmation coloring book for adults and kids. Today, Brianna joins the podcast to share the process she went through to conquer her fears of putting herself out there and sharing her message with the world. She talks about how you can model her transformation, develop confidence and amplify your voice to help others. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: How Brianna conquered some tough health challenges to show up in her life like never before. How Brianna used the Miracle Morning practice to unmute herself after decades of being a person who never raised her hand in class or spoke in public. What Clubhouse is, how Brianna is using it to build a new side of the Miracle Morning community, and how it is transforming lives. How Brianna has started Miracle Morning programs in schools across the world.  How to use your voice to inspire fellow leaders and change the world at scale. Steps you can take right now to start using your voice to share your message with the world.  Why humanity needs individual personal leadership right now.

Today we’re answering the following questions, together:  Do goals still matter, or should we just focus on being in the moment and enjoying our lives?  Or can we do both?  And if goals do matter, is there any part of the process of achieving a goal that is more important for us to focus on than the goal itself?  And if there is a part of the process of achieving our goals that deserves more of our focus, what is that and how can we harness it to achieve and experience everything we want in life?  I’ve recently overcome some struggles when it comes to setting and achieving goals, and in this episode, I’m asking questions as I explore and share how my perspective and practice has changed over time.  You’ll learn some of the pros and cons of goal setting, how to identify the real purpose of your goals (and why it’s rarely about successfully achieving them), and some simple steps on how to effectively set goals and establish effective behaviors. KEY TAKEAWAYS How goal setting can stop you from being present. Why we often falsely believe that achieving our goals means that we’ve succeeded - and why our feeling of satisfaction after achieving a goal can ring so hollow. Why moving in the direction of a goal matters more than hitting a target or achieving a specific outcome.  The process I learned at 19 to set and achieve goals - and how accountability helped me pursue sales records, write books, and grow every business I’ve ever aspired to build.

Okay, so I’m going to start by warning you that today’s podcast episode (and this email) might be a little more “woo-woo” than you’re used to from me. :^)  I recorded today’s episode a few days ago, directly after I experienced one of the best Miracle Mornings of my life. I went deeper into meditation than I usually do, opening myself up to a message I felt I needed to receive, and got back something more direct, specific, and experiential than I expected. I felt like I was given the secret to accessing heaven on earth. And after I finished my meditation, I went out and lived it. I was able to look at myself with unconditional love, see the perfection in each moment, and be present to what came to me as the holy trinity of miracles: body + planet + spirit. I told you today’s a little woo-woo. :^)  In this episode, I encourage you to ask yourself, “What is heaven on Earth, and how can I experience it?” I also share a perspective I had as to what constitutes heaven on earth might be like, and why it may just be available to us at all times. KEY TAKEAWAYS The holy trinity of miracles Why the human race was given everything we need to experience heaven on earth (and how we might have messed it up)  How meditation can help us connect and communicate with a higher consciousness Why life is a buffet of ideas, concepts, principles, and practices - and how to find what works best for you How to work on loving yourself, being yourself, and living freely Why unlearning everything gives us the power to be truly present Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/374 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Today’s podcast episode is a blend of relevant wisdom and helpful resources that will (hopefully) add significant value to your world. I’m sharing some of my most recent insights and breakthroughs (aka wisdom) as well as some of the tools, resources, songs, movies, and books that are significantly enhancing my life right now.  My intention with today’s show is to share this wisdom and these resources to help you optimize your physical and mental well-being, to be happier, to better understand your purpose in the world, and to live your life in the present moment. KEY TAKEAWAYS The specific therapy I recently discovered that almost instantaneously cured my body after 20 years of chronic damage - and how it can help treat headaches, TMJ, and a wide variety of other conditions. What it means to elevate your consciousness and why it’s a worthwhile pursuit that transforms your life.  The valuable principles, philosophies, and practices I’ve learned from reading and re-reading Awareness by Anthony DeMello and Transcending Levels of Consciousness by David Hawkins. Why I recommend watching this one particular documentary albeit with a slight disclaimer. How Rob Riccardo’s album The Fire In Me inspires listeners to transcend ego and do the work. [Miracle Morning Pro Tip] The one thing you can immediately start doing to wake up feeling alert and energized every morning.

Today’s guest has touched the hearts and minds of millions of people worldwide, helping them to upgrade their lives with his teachings of self-mastery, radical self-acceptance, and inspired action. I’m referring to my good friend, and one of the most enlightened individuals I’ve ever met, Jesse Elder.  Jesse is a speaker, mentor, entrepreneur, and all around lover of life. In our unscripted and uncensored conversation today, Jesse and I touch on a variety of topics, including the balance between ambition and happiness, why you don’t have to wait to experience freedom and joy, dealing with negative opinions, preparing for disasters, and much more.  If you want to better understand how you can expand your life (not out of fear) and experience more freedom and joy, this episode is for you! During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: Why it’s so hard to make a difference in the world if you’re not having fun. Why people who focus their energy on producing amazing free content break Jesse’s heart. The difference between rejection and refusal - and why the responses you get from people often have nothing to do with you personally. How being curious and hungry can bring out curiosity and hunger in others. The value of being prepared for disasters, war, and power outages - and why it’s important to be “aware, but not afraid” and “prepared, but not paranoid.” Why Jesse sees his life as indestructible.

How do you define happiness? And what if you had the power to be genuinely happy, all the time, no matter what was going on in your life?  We’ve been conditioned to believe that happiness is something to be attained through achievement, success, and validation from others. Oftentimes, we make the mistake of treating happiness like it’s some sort of goal we must reach...   “If only I had more money…” “If only I had a different career…” “If only I had better relationships...” “If only I had a more… different... better…”  The truth is that happiness isn’t something you attain; it’s within you. It’s available to you 24/7, and it isn’t dependent on anything outside of you. You just need to understand how to tap into it.  In today’s episode, I’m going to give you the tools to experience true happiness — even during difficult times — and teach you how to consistently wake up every day feeling like it’s the best day of your life (because it truly can be). KEY TAKEAWAYS Redefining happiness and success – and why these things normally overlap. Why seeking validation from others makes your happiness conditional - and is both dangerous and highly addictive. How we can choose to be happy independent of our conditions, even when facing adversity. Why choosing unconditional happiness doesn’t mean rejecting sadness or depression.  The three components of my current definition of happiness, how it has evolved over time, and ideas to create your own.

Have you ever thought about writing a book? Have you considered the impact that writing a book can make on your life and your financial security? Did you know that you can literally write and publish a book in as little as 90 days? Personally, I can tell you that writing and self-publishing my book The Miracle Morning is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, because it enabled me to help millions of other people while providing financial security for my family. So, I’m committed to help as many other people as possible to experience those benefits.  In today’s podcast episode, you’ll get to listen in on my conversation with my long time friend, bestselling author and founder of Self-Publishing School, Chandler Bolt. You’ll hear Chandler’s incredible story (that you can learn from and model) of how he self-published his first book at 20 years old and turned that into a $26 million business by age 27! But first…  * ANNOUNCEMENT * Before you listen to today's episode, I have an exciting announcement to share with you. Next week, I’ll be co-hosting two live online Masterclasses (at no cost to you) with my long time friend, bestselling author and founder of Self-Publishing School, Chandler Bolt. One Masterclass is for aspiring authors who want to write a book, and the other is for new or established authors who want to sell more books: LIVE Masterclass #1: How to Write & Publish a Bestselling Book in as Little as 90 Days that Grows Your Impact, Income, and Business When: March 30th (Tuesday at 1:00pm EST (10:00am PST) Click here to register now LIVE Masterclass #2: The Proven Path to Sell More Books: How to Sell Your First (or Next) 10,000 Copies When: April 1st at 1:00pm EST (10:00am PST) Click here to register now Again, there is NO CHARGE to you for either of these live Masterclasses. So, if you’ve ever wanted to publish a book to get your message out to the world and create passive income, today’s podcast episode is a must-listen, and I recommend registering for one of the Masterclasses. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: Why and how to establish “proof of concept” before you write your book or start your business.  Why a book has the unique power to change lives decades or centuries later. How to identify what you should write your book about.  The three things holding people back from writing books - and the two big reasons people should write them.  How Chandler kick started his career by volunteering at events he couldn’t afford to attend.  How Self-Publishing School started because people kept asking Chandler for advice - and how he went from ZERO to $1.32 million in sales in 11 months. The difference between taking risks and being risky.

Do you struggle with your visualization practice? I know I do - it’s the least strong of my S.A.V.E.R.S. and something I’m always looking to better understand, enhance, and otherwise improve.  This is why today’s episode is guest hosted by my good friend, Chip Franks. In addition to being an incredible author, stroke survivor, father, and husband, Chip is an expert when it comes to the Miracle Morning and each of the S.A.V.E.R.S. And when he surprised me with this podcast episode that he recorded specifically for our community, I immediately wanted to share it with you.  Today, Chip goes deep into visualization. You’ll learn why it’s the least understood of the S.A.V.E.R.S., what makes it so important, and discover 10 ways to get creative with your visualization practice. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: #1: Be clear on what you want to visualize, and use your goals or a feeling that you want to have happen in your life to guide your visualization. #2: Take the hammer approach instead of the butterfly approach. #3: Engage every sense in your visualization to make the experience more awesome. #4: Deeply feel your visualization to give your subconscious something to work on. #5: Use the two-part visualization to imagine not just your end goal, but the steps you’ll take to get there. #6: Visualize in both the first- and third-person. #7: Push through the hard parts to conquer obstacles and prevent yourself from failing prematurely. #8: Create deep intention with no attachments. #9: Use visualization to act perfectly. #10: Combine visualization with your other S.A.V.E.R.S. to bring the best out of everything.

Ever since I finished writing my last book (The Miracle Equation), I’ve been actively learning and evolving in an attempt to figure out one thing: how can I best contribute to humanity? In other words, what do all of us need that I might be able to help people experience?  Through daily meditation and prayer, engaging with your community, and consistently reading and learning, I have become more and more clear. I’m currently deep into the research phase, which means I’m reading and re-reading 6 or 7 books right now, as well as constantly striving to become the person I need to be to live and ultimately deliver that message.  Rather than make you wait until a new book, in today’s episode, I’d like to share with you what I’ve been learning as I’ve experienced it. I want to give you some new distinctions, insights, lessons, strategies, and knowledge that you can use to improve your own life - however they may serve you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why my main goal right now is to achieve inner freedom and to be in a place where no circumstances, and nothing anyone says or does can affect my emotional state - and why it’s okay if I never get there. The power of surrender.  Why it’s impossible not to be selfish as we work to become the best versions of ourselves - and why that’s okay. The books I’ve been diving into over the last year - and what I’ve learned from them.

A few weeks ago, John Lee Dumas and I had a conversation about his new book, The Common Path to Uncommon Success: A Roadmap to Financial Freedom and Fulfillment, and we’ve both been blown away by the response. I got a huge number of comments, emails, and responses, and John got more emails after our podcast than any other he’s ever recorded. One of the questions I was asked was simply, “What are the 17 steps to uncommon success?” With John’s book still weeks away from release, I asked him if he’d be willing to pull back the curtain and share ALL of these steps with the Miracle Morning Community - and he was gracious enough to say, “Yes, let’s do it!” Today, John returns to the podcast for the second time in less than 30 days—something I’ve never done before—to share all 17 steps to uncommon success, with my added insights and commentary. KEY TAKEAWAYS How a single quote (from Albert Einstein) transformed John Lee Dumas’ life more between the ages of 32 and 41 than he did in his first three decades on Earth. The life-changing power of the ripple effect. John’s 17 steps to achieve Uncommon Success (taken from 3,000+ interviews).  How John was able to get the BEST person to interview for each step.  How you can apply each step to create your own path to uncommon success.  And much more… Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/367 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Today, you’re in for a treat! This episode is quite a bit different than our usual format, but I promise it’s packed with a ton of value. It’s actually a replay taken from a 2-hour Clubhouse welcome party that I did for The Miracle Morning Community.  In case you’re not familiar with Clubhouse, it’s basically an audio-only chatting app where individuals can host and join different conversations. It’s sort of like a live podcast, except the major difference is that the audience is able to raise their hand and be invited onto a virtual stage to interact and participate with the speakers.  A few weeks ago, my friend Gary Henderson offered to host a welcome party as a way for me to connect and communicate with people in our community and beyond. During this 2-hour session, you’ll hear an interview between me and a group of carefully selected moderators. We then shift gears and open up the dialogue to a Q&A format so people listening could join in.  We touch on A LOT of Miracle Morning related topics, but in a way that you’ve never experienced before. The beauty of Clubhouse is that it’s not just a one-way discussion. I’m getting questions in real-time that people are struggling with, and through this platform, we get to work out the answers together. KEY TAKEAWAYS What does it mean to elevate our consciousness and how does that collectively elevate the consciousness of humanity? How to take control of your inner world. What happens on the outside doesn’t have to dictate what happens on the inside!  Why every challenge we face is an opportunity to help other people ease their suffering.  Why your resistance to reality is the cause of all of your emotional pain and suffering - and what you can do instead to overcome life’s biggest challenges.  Stories from the most difficult moments of my life, including my recent struggle with depression and losing my will to live.  Why our dependence on smartphones is detrimental to our mental and emotional well being - and where I believe we should be focusing our attention instead!  How to transform your state of mind at ANY moment, using Emotional Optimization Meditation. 3 steps you can use to create real results with your affirmations and visualizations - and the 2 biggest reasons why most affirmations never come true.  How I use the S.A.V.E.R.S to optimize my own mental and emotional well being.  Q&A with a ton of Clubhouse listeners!

We can all see struggle and hardship in the world, and we all want to make a difference. But how do we get our ideas off the ground and give back in authentic, effective ways? Autumn Strier had a grand vision to help families in need, and she now lives in service of that vision every day. She’s the founder and CEO of Miracles for Kids, an organization I discovered a few months back and immediately started supporting. They help families with critically ill children fight bankruptcy, homelessness, hunger and depression, giving them the resources and strength they need to fight for their kids’ lives.  Thanks to you and everyone who supported The Miracle Morning Movie, we donated $9,200 from the ticket sales, and committed to donate an additional $1,000 per month, every month. Today, Autumn and I are talking about how the kindness and generosity of others can help people build the lives they want, what happens when you get over self-doubt and believe in yourself, and the powerful ripple effect that you can create when you discover how you can best give back. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: How being on the receiving end of charity as a child and working since the age of 10 inspired Autumn to give back as she grew up. How Autumn turned a family friend’s unused employee contribution fund and tax I.D. letter into a thriving nonprofit despite already having a full-time job, a traveling husband, a two-year-old, and a baby weeks away from being born with a critical illness.  Why people considering starting charities should look for a unique angle and be ready to pivot - just like if you’re launching a business. What Miracles For Kids is doing to help families during the pandemic - and how you can support this wonderful organization.

There’s no way around it: we all live in a society where we have to earn money in order to pay for the things we need. However, that doesn’t mean that the money we earn has to be directly linked to our time, or that we have to spend our lives doing things we don’t enjoy in order to provide for ourselves and those we love.  John Lee Dumas knows this very well. On his award-winning podcast Entrepreneurs On Fire, which has over 100,000,000 listens, he’s interviewed more than 2,700 of the world’s most successful leaders in business. In his new book, The Common Path to Uncommon Success, he takes what he’s learned from those 2,700 interviews and lays out a proven 17-step roadmap to help his readers achieve financial security, freedom and fulfillment. In our conversation today, John and I talk about how he was able to overcome PTSD in order to build a multi-million dollar business, how his 17-step system is helping people to achieve their goals, and why it’s time to stop being uncomfortable when it comes to talking about money. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: How John found his footing as he confronted PTSD, professional failure, and depression after serving in the US military. Why every single highly successful entrepreneur has followed John’s 17 steps, whether they know it or not.  How to find your big idea, discover your niche, and create a solid content production plan. How building the financial life you want gives you the freedom and power to give back to the people and organizations you care about the most.

A lot of us want more time, more money, and more freedom, but we don’t know how to make it happen. We don’t know what steps to take, what we need to do, or how to get started. This is why Ray Higdon’s message spoke to me, and I’m pleased to say that today’s podcast exceeded my expectations. Ray is the author of the new book, Time, Money, Freedom: 10 Simple Rules to Redefine What’s Possible and Radically Reshape Your Life. In it, he and his wife Jessica share how they achieved personal and financial independence - and give their readers a step-by-step process to build confidence and take control of their lives. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: Ray’s childhood story of overcoming an abusive relationship with his stepmother. Why Ray decided to write the book, Time, Money, Freedom. Why anyone can create a great life despite a bad past. How your hardships can inspire others and positively impact the world. The concept of “plucking your weeds” - identifying and changing areas of your life that are incongruent with your values.  Why more money = more good!  The power of vulnerability - and why sharing your story is the inspiration others need!  Why success shouldn’t be associated with monetary gains or status - and a much better way to measure it. Having a WHY that makes you cry and the secret to making real progress towards it.

What are your financial goals for 2021? Entering into the New Year, we often talk about transforming our health, our relationships, and our careers - but what about our finances? I don’t know about you, but I’ve been guilty of making mistakes when it comes to setting goals for income, savings, and wealth creation. Fortunately, there’s no better time to change than now.  Joining me today to talk about this is Robert Gonzalez. Robert is the founder and CEO of MyBooks.PRO, a profitability and bookkeeping company that works with individuals and entrepreneurs. I’ve known Robert for fifteen years, and I was his coach back in 2009 – helping him with leadership and business strategies. Now, our roles have been reversed, as I coach with him – specifically on my finances.  In this episode, Robert and I are talking about how to track your fin During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: The common mistakes that people make when it comes to their finances. The difference between using QuickBooks and working with a financial coach. What makes financial goals not that different from the other goals we set for ourselves each year - and how to hold yourself to them, even if you have variable income. Tools you can use to create automatic savings and solve your budget problems. The four stages of financial freedom.

I’m not sure if our world has ever been this divided. From my vantage point, I’ve never seen so much judgement, condemnation, hatred, and vitriol toward one another, especially between people of different belief systems.  The reality is that we’re all human beings. We’re all part of the human family, and no matter how our beliefs might differ from one another, we’re all a lot more alike than we are different. We all want to be happy, to be healthy, to have freedom, to feel safe, and to feel respected. Inspired by a Facebook Live session I did last week, today’s episode is about the consequences of judging and condemning others, the power of unconditional love (and why it’s not the same thing as tolerating harmful or abusive behavior), and how this radical gesture has the power to help us heal the world. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: The consequences of judging others based on your own life experiences. Why human beings have so much more in common than we do differences. How unconditional love can heal the world, beginning with healing yourself.  How do you love someone who has wronged you?  Trading in your judgement for empathy. The difference between blame and responsibility.  What it means to be part of a human family. Why putting labels on people makes it impossible to appreciate, respect, or love them.

What does it mean to achieve financial freedom? Is it being able to provide for our families and not worry about making our next rent or mortgage payment? Is it having sources of passive income that pay the bills whether you work or not ? Is it the ability to focus solely on what you want to do in life, as opposed to what you need to do?

He empowers people to stop thinking that money can only come from stress, toil, and time, and shares strategies and principles designed to create real, tangible passive cash flow streams. If you value building, growing, and protecting your wealth, today’s episode is for you. Justin isn’t just sharing his philosophy when it comes to money, but real-world advice that you can immediately implement to improve your financial situation. During today’s conversation, here’s what you’ll learn: How lifestyle investing uses money as a vehicle for freedom. The steps Justin took while working full-time to create passive income streams. How Justin chooses and structures investments to maximize returns and minimize risk. Why anyone can become a lifestyle investor. The traditional investment advice that Justin finds risky.

For every single one of us, 2020 was a year unlike any other in history. For many, it was arguably the most difficult year of their lives. For some, it was a great year. My question for all of us to consider is, what determines whether a year is good or bad?  On last week’s podcast, I shared an unconventional approach to making 2021 your best year yet. I talked about why having a good year or a bad year has less to do with your results and more to do with how you choose to show up and experience each day. In other words, if you commit to show up at your best each day, regardless of your results, wouldn’t that be the recipe to creating your best year ever? Well, this week, we’re focusing on more of the tangible side of things — the specific goals and measurable outcomes that you want to achieve in your life. You’re going to hear how to apply the Miracle Equation to your life in 2021, in order to move your biggest goals from possible, to probable, to inevitable and to create results beyond what you’ve ever imagined possible. Today, you’ll learn the 5-steps to Achieve Your Biggest Goals and Dreams: Step 1: Accept and Love Your Life Unconditionally Step 2: Redefine the Purpose of Your Goals Step 3: Maintain Unwavering Faith Step 4: Put Forth Extraordinary Effort Step 5: Maintain the Miracle Equation Until the Last Possible Moment Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/358 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

What a year 2020 has been for all of us. No one could have predicted what was to come, and while I’ve heard from people that this was either their best or worst year ever, almost all of us have faced unprecedented challenges, adversity, and even opportunities along the way. As we leave this year behind, on today’s podcast I’m inviting you to consider entering into 2021 with an unconventional paradigm—that creating the best year of your life has less to do with what you accomplish (your results) or what happens to/for you (your circumstance), and everything to do with how you choose to show up and experience each day.  I’m also going to give you some strategies that you can immediately begin implementing to make 2021 your best year yet. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why having a good year or a bad year has less to do with your results and more to do with how you show up every day. How a difficult year (see 2020) can give you everything you need to become the person that you need to be to create everything else you want in life.  How to get clarity and set goals in eight different areas. The value of unwavering faith and resilience.  The power of support and accountability networks - and how to find (or create) one.

Today’s episode is a continuation from last week’s Freedom From Fear (Part 1). If you missed that episode, I highly recommend you click here to go back and listen to it before digging into this one.

You’ll learn how fear can make you a better person, practices you can use to overcome emotional states that are holding you back, and what you can do to live a life of joy and gratitude. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why fear disappears when you actually encounter the things you were afraid of for so long.  Why you can’t just snap your fingers and get over your fears.  How to use two affirmations to replace fear with unwavering faith – even in the face of the things you fear the most.   Three (3) strategies you can use when you experience fear.  How to cater emotional optimization meditation (EOM) as a part of your daily practice for transcending fear.

We’re all afraid of different things. It’s a natural part of the human experience. In fact, fear is what helps to protect us. However, fear can also become destructive and detrimental to our mental, emotional, and physical well-being.  Right now, there’s a global collective fear of the unknown like never before, as well as our individual fears (both conscious and unconscious) that we each need to examine, understand, and free ourselves from. Today’s episode is the first in a two-part series. We’re going to talk about what fear really is, what causes it, how it affects us, and how you can break free from fear. KEY TAKEAWAYS The difference between “unconscious” fears and “conscious” fears.  What exactly fear is, when it serves us, and when it doesn’t.  Why fear is a self-created, intangible illusion - and how to use self-love and thinking from a place of power to transcend it.  Why it’s not possible to be “fearless” but it is to fear less - and how to take a 20,000 foot view to understand and use your fears to your advantage. How to avoid spending unnecessarily time in the fear state, even as you face intense challenges, trauma, and setbacks.

Have you ever had the opportunity to talk with a true master in the realms of mindfulness and meditation? Over the years, I’ve read books and learned from various experts, but none with today’s level of mastery.  Today’s guest, Shinzen Young, has practiced and taught meditation for over 50 years and is considered to be a true master. He is the co-director of the SEMA (Sonication-Enhanced Mindfulness Acquisition) Lab doing neuroscience research at the University of Arizona, and author of one of the most practical books I’ve ever read on the subject: The Science of Enlightenment: How Meditation Works. In a conversation I’ve been looking forward to for a long time, Shinzen and I dive deep into what makes a mindfulness practice so valuable, overcoming limiting beliefs and setbacks, and what you should do to make your next practice even better. KEY TAKEAWAYS How to develop the fundamental attention skills that allow us to succeed not just in meditation, but in life. Why it’s so important to establish and maintain goals to have an effective, meaningful, lifelong meditation practice. Why meditation is not the whole story for human happiness - and the negative effects it can have on people.  What happened when Shinzen procrastinated and had to return an advance to a major publisher after failing to deliver his first book.  Why Shinzen recommends you do more of what you’re already doing in your mindfulness practice - and do it better.

Creating the life that you desire is a daily endeavor. It’s done by stringing together intentional, productive, meaningful days, one day at a time. And one of the best ways to do that is to use strategic questions to direct your focus and actions in order to optimize each day of your life. Last week I sent you an email titled “ONE question to help you experience your most meaningful Thanksgiving ever.” Well, I’ve since pondered the value of applying that ONE question—not just on holidays—but EVERY single day, in order to create the most meaningful LIFE possible. So, for today’s podcast, I’m exploring how asking, answering, and applying ONE question can help you to create and experience the life you desire, day-after-day-after-day, every single day, for years to come. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why it’s so important to be intentional about how you show up every day. My Top 5 answers to this ONE question. The power of being at peace with the things you can’t change - and why we can always choose between inner peace and inner turmoil. The difference between intellectual gratitude and heartfelt, earth-shattering gratitude. Why you sometimes have to believe in the belief someone else has in you until your own belief catches up.

Do you have a clear vision for what the next 10 years of your life will be like? If not, would you like my help creating one? If you have one, do you think it would be beneficial to revisit it? Last week, I came across a journal entry I wrote back in 2016. It was titled “The Miracle Morning Movement 10 Year Vision.” When I reread it, I was inspired by some of the possibilities, amazed to realize how much of it had already come true, and reminded that we can all benefit from creating and maintaining a 10-year vision that drives our behavior each day.   I want you to be able to look back on this moment and say to yourself, “I did it. I got clear on the life I was committed to creating, what I needed to do, who I needed to become to create the most fulfilling life I could imagine, and I made it happen.” Today, Shawn joins me to talk about the astounding problems with our healthcare system, the importance of diet and exercise in illness prevention, and the major cultural changes that need to happen to help us become a healthier society. KEY TAKEAWAYS First, you’re going to hear a detailed example of a 10-year vision to show you what it looks like when things come to fruition. Then we’re going to explore why creating a 10-year vision is worth your time. Finally, you’re going to learn a step-by-step process you can use to create a 10-year vision of your own.

When I was younger, I made a decision about my diet that forever changed my life: I will value the impact that food has on my body above the taste. At first, nothing changed overnight, but that decision gradually became my guiding principle so much so that I rarely put anything in my body that doesn’t add value to my health and energy. When it comes to our health, and building our immunity to avoid viruses, disease, and illness, what we eat is arguably the single most important decision we can make. This year has made it more obvious than ever that the United States is the sickest nation in human history, and many people are being drastically affected by preventable illnesses. However, with all this instability comes an incredible opportunity to change. Researcher and bestselling author, Shawn Stevenson—who joined me on the podcast previously to talk about his book Sleep Smarter—has just released his new book, Eat Smarter: Use the Power of Food to Reboot Your Metabolism, Upgrade Your Brain, and Transform Your Life. Today, Shawn joins me to talk about the astounding problems with our healthcare system, the importance of diet and exercise in illness prevention, and the major cultural changes that need to happen to help us become a healthier society. KEY TAKEAWAYS The major underlying issues affecting the health of so many people right now that aren’t being discussed - and what we can do about it. How the COVID-19 pandemic has amplified the effects of years of ignoring chronic illness. How stress and uncertainty make us physically sicker by suppressing immune function. How to improve and optimize your gut bacteria and the other microorganisms that inhabit your body.

When you hear the word freedom, what do you think about? Today I’m talking about how we can all achieve what I consider to be the ultimate freedom or specifically “inner freedom” – the ability to choose how you experience every aspect of your life in each moment.  When we have inner freedom, we are in control of our inner world and our experience of life, no matter what’s going on. You have the ability to choose your experience of every aspect of your life, including how you experience other people. If you can attain inner freedom, you win. It doesn’t matter what’s going on in your life, in your bank account, at work, in the government, or in how other people show up—you’re in control.  Today, I want to talk about how to achieve such a state of inner freedom, even during the most difficult times. You’ll learn why worrying is usually an unnecessary use of our energy, how to transcend inner turmoil, and experience life exactly as you choose.   Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/350 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

I think you’re going to love today’s podcast episode!  Maybe I’m a little biased, but I really had a blast with this one. :^D  It’s a “behind the scenes” conversation from last week, between me and The Miracle Morning Movie team – Director (Nick Conedera) and Producer (Theresa Laurico) – on what it took to make this film.  How do you make a documentary? How do you take an idea, especially if you don’t know what you’re doing, and turn it into a full-length feature film for an audience of millions?  I’ve spent the last several years trying to answer these questions as I’ve worked on the Miracle Morning Movie. Nick and Theresa have provided me with invaluable guidance and support on this journey. They are some of my closest friends, a big part of my life, and advocates of the Miracle Morning mission and movement – and they helped inspire this incredible vision and turn it into a reality. Today, you’ll learn the story behind the Miracle Morning Movie, how we built a powerful network of people all over the world to contribute to the film, and the many challenges, delays, and complications we all faced along the way.   Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit HalElrod.com/349 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

This is truly one of my favorite interviews I’ve ever done. I’ve been a fan of John Assaraf for over a decade. Like millions of people did, I discovered him through his appearance in the 500-million+ copy selling documentary, The Secret.  John is also a NY Times bestselling author and the founder of NeuroGym, where he helps equip people with the tools to repattern, rescript, and reshape their subconscious patterns.  Today, John joins the podcast to talk about the neuroscience beneath goal achievement, how thoughts lead to behavior that generates results, and the “innercises” you can start doing now to figure out how to start forging a path forward, eliminate obstacles, and create a clear path to your goals.

We all struggle. It’s part of life. Whether our struggle is due to a lack of clarity, a lack of confidence, feeling overwhelmed, stressed, frustrated or something else – struggle is an almost inevitable part of being human.   So, how do we proceed to pursue and achieve our goals in the midst of the struggle? Whether your struggle is mental, emotional, physical, logistical, financial—or all of the above—you may find yourself asking, “What’s the most important thing for me to I do right now? Do I have what it takes? How can I pull this off?” I’ve been experiencing all of the above as I’m working to launch The Miracle Morning Movie world premiere on 12/12/2020. When I sat down to record this podcast, I was feeling overwhelmed and frustrated, and this episode was born from my own attempt to transcend the struggles that I’m facing right now.  Today, I want to help you understand what you’re struggling with, find clarity, and take on the challenges you need to face in order to succeed and achieve your goals.
