00:00 – Intro
Shane introduces himself and FQ3C – a behavioral achievement model focused on measuring personal progress.
00:40 – The Problem with Tracking Behavior
Shane explains how society relies on external models but lacks tools for tracking personal behavior on an individual level.
01:40 – Debunking Popular Motivational Myths
The danger of believing “just be consistent,” “just believe,” or “just take action.” Illustrations include jail time, candy bars, and toilets.
03:50 – Why Behavior Isn’t One-Dimensional
FQ3C includes 12 variables, but the 5 most transformative ones are:
Frequency
Quality
Consistency
Continuity
Clarity
05:00 – Smart Goals Are Dangerous
Shane challenges the effectiveness of SMART goals, explaining how they create a false sense of direction.
06:30 – Bagel Analogy
A humorous and powerful metaphor about running toward a goal, obstacles (cars, people, hot dogs), and improving continuity.
08:00 – Continuity Means Changing Your Environment
Why most “energy vampires” are people you trust. Reclaiming control over your surroundings is critical to progress.
09:50 – PTSD & Support Systems
Shane shares examples of when and why you need counseling, even after multiple failed attempts.
11:00 – You Can Start Over
A motivational reminder that you can hop on a Greyhound and change your life today.
12:00 – Applying the Model Across Life Areas
FQ3C works across business, faith, healing, and personal transformation. It’s not limited to one area.
13:00 – Data, Clarity & Environmental Barriers
Why clarity needs real data and awareness of limiting beliefs.
14:00 – How to Identify Vampires
Start with your goal. Then assess who supports it, who’s neutral, and who’s holding you back.
16:00 – Three Methods for Cutting Ties
Severance: Ghosting with intention
Handoff: Referring them to help resources
Line in the Sand: Setting conditions and enforcing them with love
20:00 – Character Revealed in Distance
Let people show their true behavior once you stop giving. Most won’t reach out. Shane shares his own 8-month identity reset story.
22:30 – Business Relationships & Boundaries
How this applies to team dynamics and toxic work environments. You can’t stay where you don’t align.
25:30 – Brutal Honesty & Setting Conditions in Love
Why setting boundaries is a sign of respect, not rejection. Holding people to standards benefits both sides.
27:00 – FQ3C: A Prerequisite to All Other Models
This isn’t personality typing—it’s for anyone (even plants). It’s the foundation for all meaningful achievement.
30:00 – Real World Results
Shane wrote a 62,000-word book in 16 days using the model. It’s about clarity and consistency, not magic.
32:00 – Insurance, Therapy & Behavioral Tracking
FQ3C can help bridge the gap between therapy outcomes and insurance requi
