As the new year rolls around, we are always faced with this sense of a fresh start. Optimism. New goals. New challenges. Somehow a better version of ourselves.
A few years have passed, and unfortunately we’ve also seen ourselves drift from who we intended to be. In fact, studies have shown that by January 17, most people already failed their “New Year’s Resolutions”.
What is up with this? After a while, I quit asking myself that, and sought the help of someone smarter than me. :)
Enter Josh Froc. Most young kids, around 5 years old, go through a (very annoying) phase of asking “why”. Over, and over, and over.
Josh never stopped. Today, he’s a certified Positive Intelligence Coach, and he helps people understand what motivates them, and what matters to them. He has spent years studying habit formation and behavioural change, and is hugely influenced by Dr. Benjamin Hardy. One of the problems he most loves to help with, is the secret anxiety that drives many high performers to be great- and turn that into the joy of challenge.
In this podcast episode, we discussed how most entrepreneurs treat the New Year in terms of goal setting, motivation, and perseverance. We talked about…
How entrepreneurs usually like going fast, always love to find the shortest way to go somewhere, and they always focus on moving forward, forgetting one very important thing…
Easy tricks to tick things off your to do box, whether it’s a day’s to-do list or a lifelong bucket list
Two strategies for starting the year with a positive mindset no matter what happened last year
The surprising illustration of the scale of the human consciousness, and how you can use this to “demand feeling better”
His best advice for overcoming resistance to new goals (and blaming the busy-ness of life)
The simplest thing people almost never do, but is so useful…. When it comes to goal setting
The power of vision x affirmation x accountability
Over the last 3 years Josh has run a morning club for entrepreneurs, starting at 5AM and helping them get clear on what matters, and start the day with positive momentum.
