  • EP05: David O'Leary's Journey of Success

    Internal Leverage is an exploration into the inner game of business. Through interviews and anecdotes, we'll dive deep into the psychology, performance strategies, and daily routines of highly successful game changers and find out what gives them internal Leverage.

    In this new episode, mindset and performance coach Abraham Heisler speaks with David O'Leary, Creator and Executive Producer of the TV drama series Project Blue Book. We listen in to his journey from being a teacher to slugging it out in Hollywood and creating a TV series that has been played in the United States and all over the world.

    Essential points covered in this episode:

    ✔️ Starting as a test prep company tutor, becoming an assistant three times at different production companies and studios, and becoming an executive at three other places in his late 20s made David realize that he wasn't living an authentic life.

    ✔️ To pursue your creative passion, commit to the beginning and then and starting small. David dreamed of being a screenwriter, so he worked on his craft, developed it, put it into practice, and took those little steps to put himself forward. Eventually he started attracting some great opportunities.

    ✔️ Sometimes the "bad pitch" we have in life ends up as the most brilliant ideas. Let go of high-pressure expectations and allow yourself to be and do what you genuinely want to do.

    ✔️ Understand that you've got to go through the process of facing a bunch of failures. Focus on the process rather than the outcome, and you may probably do your best work yet.

    ✔️ What keeps your fascination and interests may be the direction that will allow you to explore that in a very public way and take thousands, even millions of people on that journey with you, like what David was able to do.

  • EP02: Take Back Control of Your Results

    In martial arts, strength and power alone are of little importance. To achieve superior strength requires LEVERAGE -- applying force to the right place and at the right angle from stability.

    In this new episode of the Internal Leverage Podcast, mindset and performance coach Abraham Heisler talks about leveraging the subconscious mind and gaining more significant levels of control over your results.

    Essential points covered in this episode: 

    • Soak in the fact that according to scientific research, your Conscious Mind makes up 12% percent of your total brain function (decisions, emotions, actions, behavior). In comparison, 88% percent make up the unintentional aspects of the Subconscious mind.
    •  Self-awareness is the absolute key to success. Creating the ability to be aware of ourselves in our thinking and practicing metacognition allows us to make better, more effective decisions and bring us closer contact with the results we're aiming to achieve.
    • Journaling is the back door to the subconscious. Instead of speaking affirmations, writing out your thoughts gives you added benefits. 
    •  Understand that your environment will determine your success. Finding a coach, mentor, and an accountability group increases your chances of following through the changes you are implementing within yourself.
