Better U -- A Motivational Podcast

In this episode I share a story of the morning as I recorded this episode. When you don't feel like doing what you said you were going to do, you STILL have to do it. You cannot lose the battle with your mind. You have to keep going and keep working to improve your ability to NOT lose the battle with your mind! When your mind says no, you have to overcome that and say YES!

Prudence is defined as, in my words, the ability to, when you come to a "T" in the road, make a right when you KNOW you must go right. Prudence is one of the 5 facets of conscientiousness. I did an episode a LONG time ago and I wanted to revisit these facets and talk about them solely on their own episodes!

I found this Instagram quote that said "You can either have reasons or results. Not both". I really like that quote because it exemplifies how excuses happen to everyone, but what separates the successful from those that don't succeed is the ability to not have reasons. ONLY RESULTS. So if you can work to minimize the reasons, you can then work to maximize the results.

The 33% Rule states this: Spend 33% of your time with people you can mentor and coach. Spend 33% of your time with people who are where you are right now. Spend 33% of your time with people you can learn from. This concept allows us to fully understand and focus in on where we are spending our time and how we can better ourselves every day by focusing on this. You can do this through face to face, or from reading/listening to a podcast/ watching a speech to both learn from and mentor others!!

This episode goes over the theory of the Hedonic Treadmill and how it relates to long term happiness in our lives. It is not the materialistic things that make us happy, but rather enjoying and cherishing the things that we do have. I talk about the theory of the Hedonic Treadmill and then I go over 7 steps to get off of the Hedonic Treadmill.Make sure to FOLLOW us on all social media @BetterUShow, SHARE this podcast with a friend or a family member, and don't forget to SUBSCRIBE!!!

The main thing that I want for you is TO BE HAPPY. I want you to be happy with your life. Happiness does not stem from trying to impress others just so that they like you. NO.

Kensho and Satori are two ways for us to grow through life. Kensho is the growth through pain. Satori is the growth through new insights. No matter where you are on this journey in life, we all experience both kinds. While majority of our growth is through Kensho, we do still have to allow ourselves Satori growth, by immersing ourselves in motivational topics through reading, podcasts, YouTube videos and more!!!
