    Podcast Summary

    • Define your unique version of successTake time to reflect on what success means to you personally and write it down to guide your goals and motivation

      Defining success is a crucial first step towards achieving it. According to Rob Dial from the MWF Motivation Podcast, success means different things to different people, and it can change over time. Therefore, it's essential to take some time to reflect on what success means to you personally. This could be financial wealth, happiness, personal growth, or something else entirely. By defining your unique definition of success, you'll have a clearer vision of what you're working towards and be more likely to stay motivated and focused on your goals. So, take out a pen and paper and ask yourself, "What do I see as successful?" The answer to that question will help guide you on your path to achieving your version of success.

    • Define your personal success and set clear goalsTo achieve success, define what it means to you, set specific, measurable, and attainable goals, and make a plan to reach them.

      In order to achieve success, it's crucial to set clear and specific goals. Vague goals like "making more money than last year" or "losing weight" may not provide a clear path to achieving success. Instead, it's important to define what success means to you personally and set specific, measurable, and attainable goals. For example, aiming to make $100,000 or losing 20 pounds are more effective goals as they provide a clear target. By defining success and setting clear goals, you increase the likelihood of achieving them. Remember, success means different things to different people, so it's essential to define it on your own terms. Once you have a clear goal, make a plan to reach it and stay focused on your objective.

    • Define success, set specific goals, create a plan, and remind yourself dailyWriting down goals increases success chances by 3% over those who don't set or forget goals

      Having a clear, written-down plan and reminding yourself of it daily is crucial for achieving success. According to a Harvard study, only 3% of students who wrote down their goals were more successful than the 97% who didn't set or forget their goals. Therefore, following this successful pattern, it's essential to define what success means to you, set specific goals, create a plan, and consistently remind yourself of it each morning and night. By doing so, you'll increase your chances of reaching your desired destination. So, get a pen and paper, write down your goals, and never forget the path to your success.

    • Reflect and set goals weekly for personal growthWeekly self-reflection and goal setting help improve and make each week better than the last. Identify personal definition of success and focus on actions bringing happiness and fulfillment.

      Defining success, setting a clear goal, making a detailed plan, and consistently reviewing progress are key to personal growth and achieving success. Most people fail because they lack a plan or do not follow through with it. To improve and make each week better than the last, set aside time every Sunday for self-reflection and goal setting. Success means different things to different people, so it's essential to identify what it means to you and focus on actions that bring happiness and fulfillment. Treat your personal growth journey as seriously as managing a budget, with a clear plan and consistent effort.

    • Reflect and Adjust Daily to Reach GoalsDaily self-reflection and goal-setting leads to progress and success. Adjust as needed to stay on track.

      Consistent self-reflection and goal-setting are key to achieving success. By evaluating your progress every night, every morning, and every Sunday, you can make adjustments and stay on track to meet your goals. It may not be easy, but with dedication and a positive mindset, it is attainable. Remember, share this message with someone who could benefit from it and make it your mission to brighten someone's day.

    What Are You Addicted To?

    In today's episode, I'm taking a deep dive into how we can reclaim our brains from addictive living and stop numbing those tough emotions and past traumas. We’ll explore the fascinating world of our nervous system, understanding the difference between the stressed-out sympathetic state and the restful parasympathetic state. I'll share my personal journey with addiction, the common ways we numb ourselves (hello, workaholics and Netflix binge-watchers!), and how to develop better self-regulation and coping strategies. Let’s increase our self-awareness and start healing from the inside out, so we can truly create the life we want.

Together, we'll learn how to spot these patterns, challenge them, and ultimately reframe our thoughts to lead more positive, fulfilling lives.

    How To Reprogram Your Subconscious Mind

    How To Reprogram Your Subconscious Mind

    Today, I'm exploring how our early experiences and surroundings shape who we become—and more importantly—how we can rewrite those scripts to create the life we truly want. Think of our minds like super-complex computers; they run on programs we pick up from childhood onward. These programs influence everything from our behaviors to how we think about ourselves and the world.

    From the moment we're born, we're soaking up information like sponges. It's fascinating to see how much of what we learn comes from observing those around us, especially during those crucial early years. I'll be sharing insights on how to uncover these subconscious programs, challenge them, and ultimately, rewrite them to align with your goals and dreams. If you're ready to take charge of your programming and steer your life in a new direction, this episode is for you!

    Dr. Sandro Formica - Living Life on Your Own Terms

    Dr. Sandro Formica - Living Life on Your Own Terms

    Today's guest is my wonderful friend, Dr. Sandro Formica. Sandro and I met at the World Happiness Summit, and naturally we bonded over our shared mission of spreading and legitimizing the pursuit and study of happiness and fulfillment. Sandro has taken an unconventional path in academia and life, living every day in full commitment to his Life Purpose. He lives to get others to this point, increasing individual and organizational performance based on applied, scientific evidence. He teaches "The Science of Happiness and Personal Empowerment" at Florida International University.

    As you'll hear in the conversation, Sandro radiates that easygoing, wise Italian vibe. His anecdotes about his mother are both heartwarming and hilarious. He is a joy to speak with and listen to, and his insights and wisdom will lead you to take a close look at whether or not you're living the life and doing the work that your needs, values, and purpose want you to do.

    Listen as we discuss:

    • How his first thought during quarantine was: "I wish I could hug mama."
    • How the COVID-19 pandemic affected his native Italy (which at the time of recording was a disastrous situation) vs. Miami, his home.
    • The realization that out of the roughly 20,000 hours we receive of fundamental education from preschool through high school, we can barely remember 10% of it.
    • How we can measure the intangible by gauging how much our needs are being fulfilled, and the firm truth that having our needs met will lead to a basic happiness.
    • The needs not being met by the pandemic: Safety, socializing, touch.
    • The question: Why is the feeling of having your needs met based on subjective perception? Some people have it all and feel unsafe, and yet others are as vulnerable as it gets and feel safe and secure.
    • A small mention of squirrels, again, because apparently everyone thinks they're awesome.
    • How Sandro would calm someone going through a lockdown induced panic
    • How it's crucial to align your work and life plan with your values, needs, and purpose, in that order.
    • How Sandro was living life and getting a PhD in a field he didn't really care about in order to gain his mother's approval, only to realize he didn't really know himself.
    • The timeless value and curative power of vulnerability.
