The War Between Business And Art - Podcast

There are two ways to create something people will buy. One makes you money. The other changes the world. Most people only use one and that’s why they either stay broke or never lead.In this video, I break down:• Why artists struggle to make money• Why entrepreneurs limit their creativity• The difference between analyze-first vs create-first• Why “theory follows practice”• How to become both creative AND financially successfulIf you only analyze, you make predictable money but never create anything new.If you only create, you might change the world but never capture value from it.The people who win do both. That’s how you become a creative and financial force.Follow me on my socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshterryplaysFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshterryplays/X: https://x.com/joshterryplaysTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@UCOLdtkK1XqV6ikuHUqfetnQTo work with Josh Terry go to https://workwithjoshterry.com/

Most people don’t fail because they’re lazy. They fail because they’re playing the wrong game.There are three types of goals:– Moonshot (10x thinking)– Linear (step-by-step execution)– Exponential (small wins that compound)Each one works. But only if it matches where you are.If your goal makes you freeze, it’s not motivating you then it’s breaking you.In this video, I break down: • Why most people pick the wrong type of goal • Why “pushing harder” makes things worse • How to guarantee daily wins (even when you’re struggling) • How to combine vision, structure, and momentum • How to actually take action consistentlyThe goal isn’t to do more. It’s to make your actions winnable.Follow me on my socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshterryplaysFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshterryplays/X: https://x.com/joshterryplaysTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@UCOLdtkK1XqV6ikuHUqfetnQTo work with Josh Terry go to https://workwithjoshterry.com/

The Smarter Way to Break Bad Habits

Most people think addiction is about lack of discipline. It’s not. It’s about trying to feel better and not knowing how.In this episode, I explain why fighting urges makes them stronger, why “hunger” is something you can learn to tolerate, and how to redirect addictive impulses into behaviors that actually improve your life. This is not about forcing yourself to suffer. It’s about learning how to use your psychology instead of fighting it.Follow me on my socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshterryplaysFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/joshterryplays/X: https://x.com/joshterryplaysTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@UCOLdtkK1XqV6ikuHUqfetnQTo work with Josh Terry go to https://workwithjoshterry.com/

Ego vs reality

Most capable people don’t fail because they don’t try hard enough.
