With so much change going on in the world,  it's easy to feel sometimes like you're at the mercy of events outside your control, right?

In yesterday's episode, I talked about Jack Canfield's Success Formula and how your response determines your outcome. Today, I'll dive deeper into the three things you control that allow you to have the best response possible: your thoughts, your visualizations, and your actions.

So if you feel like events are controlling your life, listen to this episode and discover how you can take control of your response.

I don't talk much about math on the show, but today I share a simple formula that can change your life. It's E+R=O.

Jack Canfield, author of "The Success Principles" refers to this as the Success Formula. In today's episode, I unpack this simple idea and describe the most important element in the equation. Hint: it's the one you have the most control over.

Think about the last 24 hours in your life. Is there something that you did during that time that you loved? Just one thing?

If I said, tell me one thing that you loved in the last 24 hours, could you?

In today's episode, I talk about how powerful it can be to actively reflect on our just completed day, and ask one simple question: What did I love most about today?

There are several possible answers to this question, and each can lead to more happiness in your days ahead. Join me as I explore this question, and how I've personally used it recently.

Listen up. Today I share some information I got from listening to Arnold Schwarzenegger. You may have heard of him. He's accomplished a few things in his life. In today's show, I talk about the power of focusing on doing one thing at a time. Of course, this makes sense. But this advice works.

In Arnold's new podcast and newsletter (links below), he talks about his own routine of being singularly focused on doing one thing at time. Once done, he checks that off his list and moves on.

When you have a lot going on, it's easy to get distracted by everything that you have to do. You can look at your to do list and see all of those things. And sometimes that can feel overwhelming. But you do realize you can't do the entire list all at once, can you?  No, you can't. Take it from Arnold.

As always, thanks for listening!

Do you want more from life? More success, more abundance, better health, stronger relationships? If you want all that, you need to give that much in return.

That's according to Deepak Chopra's book, "The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success." In this episode, I look at Law 32, the Law of Giving.

(Last week in Episode #099, I looked at the first law, the Law of Pure Potentiality. You can find that law here: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2102555/12612587

All the episodes in the series are here:

#099: Deepak Chopra's 1st Spiritual Law of Success - The Law of Pure Potentiality
#106: Deepak Chopra's 2nd Spiritual Law of Success - The Law of Giving
#113: Deepak Chopra's 3rd Spiritual Law of Success - The Law of Karma
#120: Deepak Chopra's 4th Spiritual Law of Success - The Law of Least Effort

Here are the two affirmations that Deepak Chopra shares:

Wherever I go, and whoever I encounter, I will bring them a gift.

Today, I will gratefully receive all the gifts that life has to offer me.

Have you ever been in an argument or debate with someone who seems to have a strong opinion but lacks the knowledge to back it up? It can be frustrating to have a conversation with someone who doesn't seem to know what they're talking about.

In this episode I explore the power of asking the question, "What do you know?" as a way to challenge someone's opinion and get them to share the knowledge they are basing it on. I also talk about a famous movie scene from "Annie Hall" that perfectly illustrates this kind of situation.

Drawing on insights from the book "Exactly What To Say: The Magic Words for Influence and Impact" by Phil M. Jones, I share how using this phrase can either open up a constructive discussion based on facts or give you a better understanding of where someone's unreasonable perspective is coming from.

So next time you find yourself in a debate without some  to settle the argument, try using the magic words, "What do you know about?" to better position your points and gain a deeper understanding of the other person's viewpoint.

As always, thanks for listening!

You know when you go the beach, and you stand at the edge of the waves, and they come in and wash over your feet. If you stand there long enough, you’ll begin to sink in. The sand will wash over your feet, enveloping them.

Over time, enough waves come and go. And soon, you’re stuck.

(METAPHOR ALERT!!)

In today's episode, I consider if sometimes life can get a little too comfortable, and like standing at the edge of the waves, we become stuck, and maybe even sink in.

I also share a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson, from his essay "Circles":

“People wish to be settled; only as far as they are unsettled is there any hope for them.”

Is there someplace in life where you're a little too comfortable, and maybe you've become stuck?

Remember 11th grade chemistry and all the cool experiments you did? As adults, I don't think we experiment enough. I think Ralph Waldo Emerson might have agreed with me on this.

In a quote from his essay "Circles," Emerson says, "I unsettle all things. No facts to me are sacred; none are profane. I simply experiment, an endless seeker with no Past at my back."

In this episode, I explore what Emerson means by experimentation and how it can benefit us.

• I discuss the importance of keeping an open mind and disregarding labels when experimenting.
• I also talk about differentiating between simply trying something and conducting a more formal experiment.

If you're interested in exploring the concept of experimentation in your life, join me in this exploration of Ralph Waldo Emerson's thoughts on being an "endless seeker."

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you're moving from one activity to another and struggling to shift gears? Maybe you just got home from a long day at work, and you're feeling tired, stressed, and frustrated, but you know you need to show up as the best version of yourself for your family. 

How can you transition from one situation to another more effectively?

In this episode I share a three-step process for mastering transitions and shifting gears from one activity to another. This idea comes from Brendon Burchard's "High Performance Habits," and allows you to let go of tension, setting intentions, and show up as the best version of yourself in any situation.

Key points from the episode include:

• The importance of transitioning effectively, especially when working from home where the lines between work and personal life can blur
• The concept of "mental sorbet" as a way to cleanse the palate between activities and show up fresh for the next one
• The three-step process for mastering transitions

As we face transition moments every day, it's important to have a strategy in place for shifting gears effectively. By implementing this three-step process, you can release tension, set positive intentions, and show up as the best version of yourself in any situation.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the constant barrage of news? Do you find yourself checking the headlines multiple times a day? 

In this episode I talk about the benefits of going on a 24-hour news detox, including reduced stress, improved focus and productivity, and increased mindfulness and self-awareness.

• Going on a news detox can reduce stress and anxiety by giving yourself a chance to step back and recharge.
• Taking a break from the news can improve focus and productivity by allowing you to concentrate on the things that actually matter to you.
• Going on a news detox can increase mindfulness and self-awareness by giving you the time and space to become more aware of your own thoughts and feelings.

If you're feeling overwhelmed by the constant news cycle, consider taking a break and giving yourself the chance to recharge and refocus.
