Spiritual Foundations

How do you respond when someone asks, \u201cHow are you today?\u201d

If you\u2019re like most people you respond with something like:

  • \u201cFine\u201d
  • \u201cOkay\u201d
  • \u201cI\u2019m hangin' in there\u201d

This may come as news to you, but you get to decide how you process your day.

In this episode I give you some reasons why you should carefully consider the instructions you give your brain, because what you say is often what you experience.

Tip Of The Week

If one of your goals this year is to take a trip\u2026enroll in course\u2026get in better shape\u2026or anything else you\u2019re likely to not do when it\u2019s no longer convenient\u2026today\u2019s tip is for you!

Most of us struggle to achieve our goals, that\u2019s because there\u2019s a big difference between having a goal and achieving a goal\u2014stickK works by helping people eliminate this gap by using a Commitment Contract.

A Commitment Contract is a binding agreement you sign with yourself to ensure that you follow through with your intentions\u2014and it does this by utilizing the psychological power of loss aversion and accountability to drive behavior change.

By asking users to sign Commitment Contracts, stickK helps users define their goal, acknowledge what it\u2019ll take to accomplish it, and leverage the power of putting money on the line to turn that goal into a reality.

Quote Worth Note

Seth Godin tells this story in \u201cWhat To Do When It\u2019s Your Turn (And It\u2019s Always Your Turn\u201d\u2026

\u201cStephen King, one of the most beloved, famous and bestselling authors ever, often goes to writer\u2019s conferences. After he talks for a little bit he says, \u2018Any questions?\u2019

Inevitably, someone raises their hand\u2014I\u2019m paraphrasing here\u2014and says, \u2018Mr. King, you are one of the most beloved, famous, and bestselling authors ever. What kind of pencil do you use to write your books?\u2019 It\u2019s almost as if knowing what kind of pencil Stephen King uses will help them be more like Stephen King.\u201d

It\u2019s not the pencil.

It\u2019s not the computer.

It\u2019s not the app.

Or as they say in music\u2026 \u201cIt\u2019s not the gear, it\u2019s the ear.\u201d
