In this episode, I’m launching a brand-new series, Why We Do What We Do, where we’ll explore the psychological and emotional patterns that shape our actions.

Today, I’m sharing five strategies to help you draw a line in the sand and make a conscious decision to stop doing the things that don’t move the needle in your life. You’ll walk away with practical tools to shift your mindset, take action, and finally break the habits that prevent you from clearing your to-do list and achieving your goals.

It's a new year, and I wanted to focus on something that I believe most people want: to be happier in 2025. Not just short-term happiness or brief moments of joy but a sustained sense of peace and fulfillment. According to the Harvard Study of Adult Development, the biggest predictor of happiness is the quality of our relationships. So, I'll explore the science of happiness and practice daily gratitude, specifically gratitude journaling. I'll also introduce you to a concept I call "consciousness conditioning," which is the practice of training your mind and nurturing your emotional well-being to elevate your experience of life. Ultimately, happiness isn't something that happens to us—it's something you create. By focusing on relationships, gratitude, and purpose-driven living, you can make 2025 your happiest year yet. KEY TAKEAWAYS Sustained happiness comes from contentment and nurturing meaningful relationships The quality of your relationships is the single biggest factor in long-term happiness How a daily gratitude practice can significantly improve your well-being by focusing on what’s good in life.

Setting big goals can be overwhelming, which is why many people fall short and eventually give up on them. But by breaking your bigger goals into smaller goals, you create momentum, which leads to daily dopamine releases (the “feel good” chemical) that generate perpetual feelings of motivation. In today’s episode, I’m sharing four (4) proven strategies that will help you rewire your brain and stay on track to make it easier to achieve whatever goals you’ve set for yourself. You’ll learn how being aware of your brain’s neuroplasticity can help you close the gap between your desires and reality. So whether your biggest goals are to earn more money, get healthier, or level up your relationships with friends and family, putting these steps into action will help keep you motivated, overcome mental blocks that get in your way, and visualize what it will feel like to accomplish your goals by creating daily habits that create small wins to keep you motivated. KEY TAKEAWAYS The psychology of setting goals and triggering dopamine releases by achieving them Setting and visualizing specific goals helps rewire your brain with neuroplasticity How visualization helps close the gap between a vision and reality The power of focusing on tiny wins to create momentum Overcome mental blocks like procrastination or fear of failure with implementation intentions Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/568 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

If you missed the first 3 episodes, I highly recommend you check those out first because we're tying it all together in today's 4th and final part of the series: Turning Resolutions into Results. I used to think success was all about dreaming and achieving the most significant goals I could. While that's great in theory, it often left me stuck and feeling anxious.

By focusing on habits, routines, and the accountability you need to stay on track, these steps will make achieving your goals feel effortless and almost automatic.

Last week, we kicked off our 4-part “Your Miracle Year 2025” series with Episode #1: Reflecting Strategically on Your 2024. Today, we’re focusing on your next crucial step: Connecting Your Vision to Your Values for 2025. For most of us, setting new goals creates optimism and excitement—in the beginning. But as the days or weeks go by, that excitement often starts to fade. Life happens, priorities shift, and the goals feel less urgent and are set aside. So, how do we keep the fire burning and stay on track? Today, I’ll share the strategy that’s been a game-changer for me for over 20 years in every area of life by elevating my goals from nice-to-haves to musts. And it all starts with identifying your foundational values and then clarifying a vision for your future that aligns with your values. I’ll walk you through the exact process of creating a vision that is deeply meaningful to you, one that feels so real and exciting you can’t help but take action. Then, I’ll break down how you can turn that vision into achievable goals designed to help you stay motivated. These steps will help you wake up each day ready to crush your goals with confidence and focus on bigger and better things waiting for you in 2025. KEY TAKEAWAYS If it’s not on your schedule, it’s not getting done A vision without action is only a dream Accountability is the secret weapon that helps you stay on track The purpose of a goal is not to reach the goal, it’s to give you direction and purpose you’re clear on what you want, momentum naturally follows Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/565 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

As each year comes to a close, many people will take some time to look back and reflect. And for a lot of us, we end up feeling that we didn’t accomplish as much as we wanted.

Today’s episode kicks off a special four-part Miracle Year Series, in which I share my strategies and tools for reflecting on 2024 and creating a vision for 2025. This will all lead up to the Miracle Year Live Event on January 8th, when we’ll bring everything together.

In a world where we feel pressure to do more, be more, work harder, and have it all – it’s no wonder so many of us are tired of trying to hustle our way into the perfect life. But what if the secret to finally achieving freedom, financial success, and an overall life of abundance was right here, hidden in plain sight? That’s what we’re discussing with today’s guest, the incredibly inspiring Cathy Heller. Cathy is a teacher, author, and host of the Abundant Ever After podcast, which has over 50 million downloads. In today’s episode, based on her newest book, Abundant Ever After: Tools for Creating a Life of Prosperity and Ease, Cathy reveals that abundance is not something to be chased—it’s something to be accessed from within. She breaks down how to tap into gratitude and abundance, even when life is hard. You’ll learn simple, practical tools to shift your mindset and rewire those sneaky scarcity beliefs that hold you back. In a world filled with constant noise, pressure, and comparison, Heller reminds us that life’s richness goes far beyond material possessions and that our deepest desires—love, joy, peace—are always (and already) within reach. KEY TAKEAWAYS Abundance isn’t something you work for, it’s something you tap into The first step to waking up is realizing how often we’re running on autopilot Get out of your head and into your body - that’s where clarity begins We don’t see the world as it is. We see the world as we are Your thoughts shape your life, so choose them as carefully as your actions Want more abundance?

I'm sure you’ve probably heard the phrase, "It's not how you start; it's how you finish that counts." In today's episode, I'll be inviting you to make December the best month of your life and telling you WHY and HOW to do it. As the holiday season approaches, many people create resolutions and personal goals for the new year. What I'd like you to consider is that how you finish the year will impact how you start off in the new year. One reason why most New Year's resolutions fail is because of the unproductive habits that we create (or fail to create) in December. Whether you have financial or health goals, today’s show will help keep you on track to start the new year with momentum. If you challenge yourself to make December your best month ever, you'll be able to pursue and achieve every meaningful goal that you set for yourself with confidence. KEY TAKEAWAYS Your achievements matter, but so do the moments with the people you care about You can’t control every result, but you can control the habits and processes that lead to success Small wins now build big momentum later The real win isn’t hitting the goal - it’s becoming the kind of person who achieves Goals are great but never forget WHY you want to accomplish them Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/562 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Last week, I shared a quote from Mark Groves on Instagram about reconciling our differences, especially in the context of voting and politics. Unsurprisingly, the responses varied—some resonated deeply, while others disagreed. And that's okay because it brought to light a truth I've been reflecting on all week: Love and understanding aren't conditional. They're not reserved for those who agree with us or share our worldview. Every single person is worthy of compassion, regardless of their background or beliefs. In today's episode, you'll walk away with a simple question that will transform how you approach your relationships with friends, family members, or anyone with different views and opinions. This simple but powerful mindset shift will help you understand where they're coming from and empower you to show up with empathy, love, and understanding, even in the most challenging interactions. In a world that often feels very divided, this can help us create a ripple effect of kindness and understanding when it's needed most. KEY TAKEAWAYS Seeing the world through unconditional love changes everything Everyone’s fighting their own battles, even if you can’t see them When someone’s being harsh, that’s when they need kindness the most People aren’t inherently good or bad - it all comes down to their choices Love won’t fix everything, but it works wonders for the struggles inside you Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/561 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

For those of you who follow me on Instagram, you may have seen the post I made on the morning of the US Election last week, long before the results were known. That post was about finding a positive way to move forward, no matter who won. Not surprisingly, it generated many comments and reactions, some positive and some negative, which is to be expected with any presidential election—especially this one. Now that the election is over, and whether you are celebrating or mourning the results, I want to offer an empowering perspective on how we can accept reality exactly as it is, take personal responsibility for our lives, and move forward effectively. The only way I know how is by accepting reality exactly as it is and focusing on the things that are within our control. What other choice do you have? While politicians create policies, they don’t control your growth, your relationships, or your mindset. Only you have that power. So, I invite you to take a deep breath… and listen to this episode with an open heart and an open mind. I love you so much, and I sincerely hope today’s episode leaves you feeling at peace with the things you cannot change and empowered to focus your energy on the things that you can control. KEY TAKEAWAYS We all have more in common than we think Focusing on things outside of our control prevents us from moving forward The most important choice we make is how we show up each day Taking full ownership of your life is the first step to real change.

This week, we’re taking it one step further and exploring how to build the life you truly want to live by understanding the connection between your inner beliefs and your ability to create your external reality. I will walk you through the practical strategies that helped me escape from feeling unfocused, undisciplined, and unsuccessful to building a life I’m proud of. These are simple strategies you can start applying today in any area where you want to see change, whether it’s relationships, finances, or your health.

In today’s episode, I’m doing something that I rarely do. This is a throwback to episode# 324, which was all about creating your own reality. The big reason is that this episode will be a perfect setup for next week’s episode, which will focus on creating your own external reality. So stay tuned for that. But first, let’s dive into today’s episode. How would you describe your current reality? Are you primarily experiencing states of love, joy, bliss, and enthusiasm? Or do you find yourself enduring feelings of stress, anxiety, fear, and general negativity – more often than you’d like? If you’re feeling the latter more than the former, there is no better time than now to remember that your reality is determined by what you focus on—habitually and over an extended period of time—and you have the power within you to create a reality that both feels great and enables you to transform any area of your life. If you’re feeling anything less than optimum, right now, I want to extend a challenge to you. In today’s episode, I talk about how I’ve transformed my Scribing practice to gain more clarity, solve my problems, and ultimately create the reality I want to live in – and how you can do the same. KEY TAKEAWAYS The first lesson I learned about personal growth at the age of 19 - and what made me realize how negative my reality had become. How thinking gradually affects us, why it takes us so long to notice, and the exercise I want you to do to clearly understand your current reality. The difference between journaling by hand vs. using a smartphone or computer – and why one may be more effective than the other. . How to envision your new, positive, upgraded reality. Why you should start free writing every day - and why all the wisdom you need is already within you.

We all want to feel appreciated, and one of the most powerful ways to show love and gratitude to someone is through the art of gift-giving. Especially when the gift is both incredibly thoughtful and unexpected, which is something I learned from one of the best to ever do it. Today’s episode is a tribute to one of my dearest friends, John Ruhlin, who tragically passed away recently. John was the author of Giftology, a book that has completely transformed how I think about leveraging the power of thoughtful gift-giving to optimize my personal and professional relationships. John was literally one of the best gift-givers in the world and a great friend to everyone in his orbit. For 25 years, I had the privilege of learning countless things from him. Today, I’m sharing 5 key lessons he taught me on how to build better relationships through the art of radical generosity. When giving someone a gift is done right, it can strengthen the bonds with the people you love and even transform your professional and personal relationships. John made it an art form, and I’m excited to pass on his wisdom to you. If you’d like to support John’s legacy further, you can get a 70% discount for his Referral Partner Transformation course. All proceeds will go directly to John’s wife, Lindsey, and their four beautiful daughters. KEY TAKEAWAYS Go beyond the usual and create genuine “Wow” moments with your gifts Go all in when it comes to appreciating others Make the gift about them, not you How to make sure your gift hits the mark and with their loved ones too You don’t need to spend a fortune to get the perfect gift Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/557 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Have you ever had times in your life where you feel like you’re taking two steps forward and one step back? Or maybe even three or four steps back? Most people do. But it’s important to remember that personal growth isn’t always a straight line of progress. And nobody is perfect every single day. In today’s episode, I’m sharing two journaling exercises to help you reclaim who you truly are. I’ll encourage you to grab your journal and reflect on a time when you were at your absolute best. Think of everything you’ve overcome and accomplished in your life, and prepare to write a letter to yourself in the 3rd person. This exercise only works if you’re prepared to be brutally honest with yourself. That means being real about how you’re feeling right now and how you feel about the people around you. These two steps aren’t just about identifying where you need to grow emotionally, physically, or spiritually. They’re also about recognizing and appreciating how far you’ve already come so you can move forward with renewed energy and bring the people in your life along for the ride. KEY TAKEAWAYS Acknowledge your challenges instead of running away from them You can’t solve a problem if you don’t recognize there is one Transform your life by transforming yourself Nobody is perfect every day, and that’s completely OK Sharing your insecurities takes courage and encourages others to do the same Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/556 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Do you ever talk with God (or whatever you call that voice of wisdom that seems to know better than you do)? In other words, rather than praying or meditating and hoping something magical happens, do you ever pray or meditate to set an intention and then quiet your mind to receive valuable clarity, wisdom, and guidance specific to your needs? I usually do this first thing in the morning (during my SAVERS) and right before bed, and when I do, I consistently receive what I refer to as “downloads.” I call them downloads because they enter my consciousness so fast that I find myself writing as quickly as possible without any conscious thought. I’m not thinking; I’m just taking dictation. In today’s episode, I’ll share how you can use periods of purposeful Silence to receive wisdom and create extraordinary breakthroughs without needing to follow a specific spiritual path. Whether you’re religious, atheist, agnostic, or simply someone searching for answers, this process can be transformative for you. KEY TAKEAWAYS There is a universal intelligence that we can all tap into Letting go of control makes room for the extraordinary We crave certainty, but the universe is beyond our understanding Hold your beliefs confidently, but stay open to other possibilities Three book recommendations to help you deepen this ability Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/554 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

And the best part is, you can use these steps to improve your finances, relationships, or even your mental and physical health.

So, you can be a shining example of resilience and leadership that others look up to and follow. KEY TAKEAWAYS You're not actually out of control; you just feel that way Focusing on what’s out of your control only makes you feel more powerless You can’t control what you don’t prioritize How you live your life gives other people permission to do the same unconsciously Leadership opportunities are all around us, every day Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/550 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Consider that the fastest way to improve any aspect of your life is to find someone who has already succeeded in that area and then model that person. With that in mind, which area(s) of your life do you want to improve, and whom are you modeling to accelerate your improvement? That’s what today’s episode is all about. You’ll learn why figuring out everything on your own is a long and unnecessary road to success. I’ll break down how you can draw from the experiences of others and skip the trial-and-error phase as a shortcut to self-improvement. I’ll also explain why I’ve been studying and modeling Jesus Christ (in a non-religious way) to hold myself to a higher moral standard. Even if you don’t consider yourself religious or spiritual, I hope you’ll stick with me as I continue sharing my journey of learning from others to help us all become better leaders, spread love, and stand for unity in an ever-increasing world of divisiveness. KEY TAKEAWAYS How attending my longtime friend’s funeral inspired me to model his spirit Why following in someone’s footsteps is the quickest path to success Questions to consider whom you’re modeling right now Why books are like having mentors on demand You can plan all you want, but if you’re not putting it into practice and living what you learn, it’s just potential that’s going nowhere.

Religion can be a very polarizing and even taboo topic. That’s why most people shy away from it at work, dinner parties, and family gatherings. But today, I want to challenge the notion that our differences define us and approach this sensitive topic from the perspective of unity. Regardless of whether you believe in a God or a divine force or are undecided about the existence of something greater, I believe the core thread that unites us all is a shared spirit that transcends those labels. In this episode, I’m sharing my journey with faith and spirituality and reflecting on the experiences that have shaped my understanding. It’s easy to conflate being religious with being spiritual, but there’s an important distinction there, and understanding it can open up a whole new perspective on what it means to seek something bigger than yourself. I’ll also explore the common values across various religious practices as they can be powerful tools for living a meaningful life, regardless of where you stand on the spiritual spectrum. My hope is to leave you with a fresh way of seeing the world, one that inspires hope and focuses less on the lines that separate us and more on the similarities that bring us together and help us build more empathy, connection, and respect in our everyday interactions. KEY TAKEAWAYS The difference between religion and spirituality Why Jesus is considered one of the most influential leaders of all time Finding unity begins with recognizing shared values and goals Everyone deserves to be treated with kindness, no matter what they believe Human connection is more than just physical presence Discovering the universal spirit that unites all religions Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/548 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

A few days ago, I received the devastating news that one of my dearest and closest friends, John Ruhin, author of Gift-ology, had passed away at only 45 years old. John has been a very close friend for over 20 years, a father to 4 young girls (4-13), and a devoted husband. If you’ve ever lost someone dear to you, you know how profoundly shattering that moment is. But amidst the heartache, there’s an undeniable truth: while we cannot change the reality of loss, but we can (and must) choose how we respond to it. So, for today’s episode, I want to honor my friend and share 3 steps for coping with both your mortality and the inevitable loss of those you love. (In full transparency, I recorded this the day after I found out about John’s passing, so it was still very raw.) Accepting the reality and inevitability of death—our own and our loved ones—can be one of the hardest but most necessary steps in this process. It’s a truth we often avoid, but facing it head-on allows us to find peace and help others do the same. Then, we can live in a way that reflects their values, like the generosity John embodied, and we not only honor their memory but also enrich our own lives and the lives of those around us. KEY TAKEAWAYS Death is as natural as birth There’s no value in wishing the inevitable were different The inevitability of death is certain, but the way we live our lives is our choice The suffering we experience often comes from our resistance to accepting reality Your beliefs and worldview deeply influence the quality of your life The legacy you leave behind and the care you show to your loved ones are enduring acts of love It’s better to feel than to suppress painful emotions Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/547 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by having too many goals but not enough time to achieve them all? Been there, done that - taking on too much at once and failing to make meaningful progress in the areas of my life that matter most. And that is the reason why I’m sharing my three-step formula for achieving your goals. This process helped me become one of the top salespeople at Cutco, 10x my coaching business, sell millions of books, and take care of my body during cancer recovery. It’s a formula I still use to this day. I’ll also help you to identify your #1 most important goal and develop an action plan and daily routines to make it easier to achieve. Once you complete that goal, you’ll see how easy it is to apply this method to all your other goals. This way, the entire goal-achievement journey becomes less of a grind and actually becomes something you, and everyone around you, can enjoy.

Which aspects of your life do you most want/need to improve? Take a moment to think honestly about your answer... Whatever area of your life you’d like to improve, I’ve found few philosophies more accurate and effective than Jim Rohn’s: “Your level of success will rarely exceed your level of personal development.” In other words, it’s who we become that determines our ability to create the life we want. And I’ve found this to be true in virtually every area of my life—finances, health, parenting, marriage, spirituality, mental and emotional well-being—you name it. That’s why I’m thrilled to introduce today’s guest, René Rodriguez. René is not only an expert in personal development and author of the WSJ best-seller Amplify Your Influence, but he is also one of the wisest and most effective communicators that I know. He has shared the stage with Tony Robbins, Ed Mylett, Gary Vaynerchuk, and many more. In today’s conversation, we discuss how to take your personal development to the next level so that you can take your success—in every area of your life—to the next level and beyond. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why the answers to life are found in often overlooked cliches Why your ability to influence yourself and others is crucial to success The voice you use on your kids becomes their inner voice as adults Reinforce the behaviors that lead to the goal, not the goal itself True leaders are defined by the influence that remains even in their absence The potential impact of AI on the future of personal development Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/545 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

How much simpler would life be if we could just speak our biggest hopes and dreams into existence? Obviously, life isn’t that simple. You’ve heard me talk about affirmations over the years, but today, we’re talking about the difference between affirmations and afformations, and the difference is more than a vowel. Dr. Noah St. John is an author and international keynote speaker. He is also known as a breakthrough coach and the “Father of Afformations.” He’s helped over 2 million people worldwide, and his clients have added over $3 billion in sales by following his legendary methods. Today, he talks about why affirmations often fall flat and guides us through his innovative “Afformations” to help us create lasting change, whether in love, fitness, health, or business. We also discuss how focusing on external achievements often blocks people, especially entrepreneurs, from reaching higher levels of personal development and wealth. He shares practical steps to help anyone master their “inner game” to overcome self-doubt, attract abundance, and achieve all their wildest ambitions. P.S. You can receive Noah's latest book for free by visiting: 7FigureExpertBook.

I have a confession: in the last few years, I gave up on my dreams. Or more accurately, I stopped dreaming altogether. Somewhere in the midst of the chaos than began in 2020, the future started to feel more uncertain than ever. Maybe you can relate? Of course, these last few years haven't given us much more certainty. However, life has always been unpredictable.

Chances are, many of you either know someone who’s fighting cancer, or perhaps you’re even facing this battle yourself right now. When I was diagnosed with terminal cancer back in 2016, the path forward was unclear. Traditional medicine and well-meaning doctors pointed me down the usual path, but something inside me said, “No, there’s got to be another way.” Today, I’m sharing how I found another way and beat cancer. I want to make one thing clear, a cancer diagnosis is not the end. When I was first diagnosed, I decided right then I wouldn’t be among the 80% who don’t make it.

Today’s episode was inspired by a comment on a post I made in our Miracle Morning Community Facebook Group. Someone asked how I built the Miracle Morning into a worldwide movement. As you may know, one of my “impossible goals” was to change one million lives one morning at a time by selling a million copies of my self-published book. The truth is, I failed miserably in that first year and was 987,000 copies short of my goal. But the lesson from that was that I didn’t give up and found the right people to help me achieve those goals. So today, I’ll explain step by step how I took my Miracle Morning routine and transformed it into what it is today. You’ll learn how to overcome your fears and self-doubt, pursue your biggest dreams, hold yourself accountable, and commit to achieving your biggest goals. KEY TAKEAWAYS A fear of failure is normal, but not trying guarantees failure The exponential value of creating and growing an email list The importance of just getting started, being authentic and taking the first step The greatest form of accountability is setting a target and committing to it Instead of asking how to do something, ask who can help you achieve that goal.
