Wake Up With Wonder

Are you a WONDERKILLER?!?!

In this episode the host Jason B. Godoy dives into his recent discovery that he may have been a wonder killer his whole life, which perhaps explains why wonder is so important to him. About half way through the episode he shares and embarrassing deep dark secret of something he has hidden since 5th grade. Seriously, please don't tell this secret to anyone! 

Lets find out if your a wonderkiller or what that even means... (See below/listen)

Are you someone who can be anal, annoying, rarely lets rhetorical questions go unanswered and perhaps maybe a little bit of a know it all?​

It is completely OK if you are or even if you think you might be.

One thing for certain is that I can assure you if you are reading this it means you are not a wonderkiller.

It might be just a severe case of generalized anxiety. You know the highly functioning type of anxiety where your inability to relax looks like a superpower and people believe you are a master of time.

Or better yet it could simply be that you are an enlightened and a conscientious being. This means you are detail orientated, you are mindful, and you care deeply about the experiences of others.

Being conscientious is a positive character trait and could be viewed as a job requirement or desired skill set in most environments.

The challenge comes with balancing out being conscientiousness and not being a perfectionist.

The power comes from utilizing tools that allow us to be aware of our own anxieties so we can remain grounded, calm and under control.

The gift comes in the moments of calmness and self-reflection.

To learn how to utilize this tool, receive the gift and experience the power for yourself you can listen by clicking the link below.

If you truly believe you are a wonderkiller and want to switch your mindset to that of a wonderer direct message me on social media and say "I am tired of being a Wonderkiller." ​

#wakeupwithwonder - Enjoy the show and remember to Never stop wondering! See you next on Wonder Wednesday, have a wonderful day!

Did you ever run away as a kid? Hmm well maybe you at least thought about doing it.

Now how many times have you thought about running away as an adult?

Running away from responsibilities, running away from commitments, or maybe just running away from life!

I would say it is safe to say that you are not alone if you have had these feelings even as an adult.

In fact, I wanted to share with you the 4 principles that have helped me to pony up and tackle obstacles head on instead of running away from my problems.

1) Collision creates connection

2) What resists persists

3) Hate is a cop-out

4) Love Conquers hate

Now when I face a tough conversation, feelings of laziness, sorry excuses, other people’s problems this frame allows me to push forward and step up to the adversity that lies ahead.

If you listen to the full episode not only will you hear examples and applications for each of these principles, but

You will hear an example of the “I hate you” exercise and how it can be applied in moments of confrontation particularly with young children or young adults.

If you are tired of running away from your problems, running away from your responsibilities or commitments send me a DM at the social media handles below and say "I'm tired of running away!" --> I'd love to connect and help you become the person you truly want to be.

Want to be happy? There is no magic pill..

The reality is that our brains are conditioned to sabotage our day to day interactions and in fact hinder us from being happy.

Now even though there’s no magic pill to being happy what if I told you there is a type of intelligence that has been scientifically proven to be the best predictor of how happy we can actually be relative to our own personal human potential.

This concept of Positive Intelligence or PQ not only impacts our ability to be happy but it can also increase our potential to produce meaningful work.

PQ simply put is the measure of our brains positive mental muscles (aka the SAGE) versus the negative ones (the Saboteur). Think of the sage as the positive voice of certainty within your or our wise mind and the saboteur as the negative voices in your hear or our survival mind.

Unlike our IQ but similar to our emotional intelligence (EQ) the positive muscles in our brain can actually be strengthened and developed over time with specific exercises.

Working towards strengthening our positive mental muscles will allow us to develop a more alert yet calm, balanced, sensory aware and creative mindset.

So how can we strengthen our PQ Muscles?

1.) Discover your primary Saboteur and begin weakening it; essentially limit the voices, thoughts and impulses put out by your survival mind.

*** You can take an assessment to discover you primary saboteur at https://www.positiveintelligence.com/assessments/ ***

2.) Strengthen your sage and connect deeper with that positive voice of certainty within you; this is done through the power of perspective and will allow you to tap into the 5 positive superpowers of our brain.

3.) Do 100+ daily PQ reps to strengthen your PQ muscles. Essentially this is consciously pausing for 10 seconds at any moment in your day to become completely aware of any one of your 5 senses for the entirety of those 10 seconds.

In today’s podcast episode we will go more in depth on this concept of our negative versus positive mind and I give actual examples of how you can strengthen your PQ muscles.

Thank you and have a wonderful day!

When life happens and someone challenges your opinion or an action you’ve taken, how do you know your doing the right thing?

Do you just sort of feel it within yourself like an underlying sense of confidence and certainty. Perhaps you have to call a friend or family member and ask them to validate your decision.

Maybe you just don’t give a fuck and ignore their response or opinion all together. Worst of all people even take the opinion or criticism of others personally and allow it to crumble their internal world.

You see when you have a CODE or a set of values to live by it makes life so much easier!

So now when someone projects their beliefs and opinions onto you all you have to do is ask yourself:  ----->  "Am I living out my CODE?"

You may have you’re own code for life but I’d like to share with you the simple Wonderers CODE.

1.) Absolute – Absolutely truthful to the best of our knowledge, absolutely willing to call people out on BS and absolutely yourself all the time.

2.) Acute – Acute details, acute feelings, acute emotions and acute facts. The more precise and vulnerable we can get with these things the more results, deeper connections and bigger lessons we are going to experience.

3.) Application – We share only applicable information that is relevant to the current circumstances.

4.) Answers – We constantly seek to gain more clarity to find new possibilities, to get closer to the truth and most importantly to get results!

The CODE is simple and with repeated practice over time it can become a way of life.

The more absolutely truthful you are with yourself and others then the more acute the information you will be able to share. The more acute the information you share the more applicable it becomes to you and everyone else because we are all connected. The more applicable life becomes then the closer you will get to answers, truth and results.

To listen to the code in action and a live example of how it functions in my life tune into this episode. 

Racism is a highly sensitive subject so I will do my best to not only define it but to also propose a new supportive viewpoint.

Racism, also referred to as Racialism is consciously defined by a set of actions, practices or beliefs reflective of ideologies that make it justifiable to divide humans into invisible categories of exclusively biological containers called races. Due to the unconscious adapted behavioral traits and certain cultural or behavioral features exhibited by some races and not others their may be an underlying bias that there is superiority among some races.

Do you see the problem and where the segregation can arise from? Now consider the possibility that…

Racism is simply an expression of human conflict that has developed from our evolved capacity as humans to function together collectively in groups. Our reliance on our individual self defines everyone else that can be considered as a them within the frame of our world.

As a result of society functioning in groups the conflict arises when one group becomes classified as the out-group at which point they begin operating from a place of hate. At this point the out or hate group is a mirror image of the in-group, which is operating from a place of love.

By expressing racism in this manner it eliminates the notion of right and wrong and boils racism down to a concept of good and evil.

From this viewpoint of good and evil we can simply define racism as (unearned power) fear and extreme greed.

If the out or hate group is operating from a place of fear and greed it can become toxic and addictive. They can never get enough material objects because what they really crave, what they fear to truly have can not be bought with greed. These haters or racists are chasing power and wealth but what they do not know is that their heart really desires is love, intimacy, connection, self-acceptance and rich relationships.

Now that you are aware, how can you approach racism differently? The change starts with you and you can hear more tips in today’s podcast.

In this episode I sit down with my first ever coach, a mentor and now a friend Ryan P. Lampe. We talk about his mentors over @Wakeupwarrior and their quote about "ruthless commitment." Ryan shares how he applied this concept of ruthless commitment to his life to overcome a crippling disability, to start a surfing podcast and create a coaching community of his own, to unlock sexuality and the divine feminine inside of his wife, to create deeper genuine connection with his kids and to evolve into a better version of himself every day. Ryan lives by his quote "I am not committed to my results but I am my commitment." He uses this to inspire and lead his new coaching program "Wildly Connected" where he helps married men have better sex and create fearless relationships with their wives. Ryan is a passionate dad, coach, husband, multiple businessman and more! At one point he hosted his own surfing podcast, was in the military and was even a pastor. Stay tuned until the end of the episode where we talk about feeling from the heart and allowing ourselves permission to feel dark emotions and fully own the light emotions. At the very end of this segment we talk about trips to the nude beach and how they help to inspire wonder! 

Some tips that we discuss to promote wonder are:

Feeling your feelings, connecting with your heart, embracing the dark and light sides of life, seeing beyond your current reality, using your emotions to create a vision,  using wonder to unlock sexuality, float tanks and other methods to just being free to be and experience life.

As a result of this podcast episode at the beginning of June (1st) we will begin our new monthly challenge the "I AM MY COMMITMENT" challenge. You can learn more about this free challenge by joining our FREE discord community at https://discord.gg/tHdjkG8
