  • Cynicism Sucks #29

    “When there is a problem, be the one to solve it. Address the problem ahead of you and be the change your world needs.”

    The title says it all. I am here to remind you why being negative, pessimistic, and cynical is a waste of your time. With a few insights, I tell you how you can avoid cynicism and  properly embrace life's challenges.

  • Adversity, Mindset, Stoicism, And Role Models With Dan Stowell #28

    "We wait for an event to change, when really, we have the ability to change whenever."

    Welcome back to the show! I hope you and your loved ones had a great time celebrating this Memorial Day weekend. Ion Motive is heating back up with another guest interview featuring my friend Dan Stowell. Dan is the creator of a self improvement page called Nova Fusion, and is also working to become a life coach. In this episode we discussed a number of different topics, including how he overcame some of his personal struggles, how to develop a mindset that helps you  move forward, and so much more.

  • Men's Mental Health And The Principles Of Reason And Emotion #27

    The sole reason I made this episode is to encourage men to speak up about their mental health. In episode #27, I spend time explaining the concepts of "reason and emotion," including what they mean and what they do not mean. I conclude by discussing why speaking up about mental health is always a sign of strength and never weakness.

  • The Side of Self-Improvement We Neglect #23

    "Accept where you are at and take responsibility for where you will end up."

    In this episode, I remind you what self improvement is all about: Developing Character. It is necessary to focus on acting out better thoughts, behaviors, and actions, but equally as important to focus on removing the flawed parts about ourselves. Unfortunately, we often forget this part, which is I why I wanted to remind you of it today.

  • Go Out Into The Storm #22

    "You cannot expect to change in places that do not challenge you."

    I really enjoyed  making this episode, as I love when philosophy and psychology blend together. In it, I used the metaphor of a storm to explain the hidden meaning you find when you overcome a challenge that provoke fear, anxiety, worry, etc.
