Habits 2 Goals: The Habit Factor® Podcast with Martin Grunburg

"When your personal emergency brake is on, you're not going to go as fast, as far, or as efficiently as you should.”  On today's episode, we greet the week with a powerful Mind Bullett: Find your e-brake.  If the emergency brake is on when you drive your car, the vehicle will feel slow and sluggish, held back by some unseen force. When you realize it's the emergency brake and release it, your car surges forward at full power. This is a great metaphor for when you're trying to make a change in your life and move forward in the right direction. Sometimes you have your goal in mind and you're working to align your habits with that goal, but something is out of whack—something is out of alignment and holding you back. When your personal emergency brake is on, you're not going to go as fast, as far, or as efficiently as you could. You can be doing so many things right, but one bad habit could be stuck in the process and stalling your progress. Maybe it's drinking too much, or smoking, or holding on to anger. Whatever it is, it's time to release it. Listen in for a checkup on your habit alignment process, finding your own personal e-brake that's keeping you from your full potential, and how to release that bad habit and feel the power as you surge forward.  *** New listeners: By texting the word "HABITS" to the mobile phone number "33444" you will instantly receive your "hack"/habit tracker/habit development template, or you can download it here: thehabitfactor.com/templates.

"Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will." ~Suzy Kassem "Life is risky! As soon as you were born things got risky. Just how risky? Nobody gets out alive." ~Jim Rohn  On this Frequently Asked Friday, we tackle the question: How can I kill my doubt?  Leading with Suzy's brilliant observation above, MG reminds us that failure is really a prerequisite for success and since that is the case, it's doubt that proves to be the real enemy! Since doubt is rooted in fear and often related to past experiences, step one is to recognize that the past doesn't equal the future. Step two is to change the picture (what we're associating and visualizing) to be more positive. Step three is to take ACTION since doubt creates inaction!  Listen in for more about killing doubt to set yourself up for real success!

"When you find an upstream solution to the problems in your life, you change the downstream effects.”  Today's Mind Bullet is a powerful concept: Upstream.  In relation to problem-solving, "going upstream" means addressing the issue at its root cause, rather than just treating the ensuing symptoms. For example, Big Brothers Big Sisters of America goes upstream with the problem of incarcerated youth by providing kids with mentors early on to guide them. This comes at a fraction of the cost of prison.  Diet and exercise are upstream solutions to health problems. Upstream ways to reduce plastic waste, such as making straws optional and using reusable grocery bags, are making a huge impact on the environment.  What are some upstream solutions for your own life? If the downstream issue is a lack of savings, an upstream solution is checking your spending and saving. If your downstream issue is poor health, an upstream solution can be to change your diet or checking your alcohol intake.  Listen in to hear about finding the upstream solution to your personal and community challenges, and how habit and PARR come into play.  *** New listeners: By texting the word "HABITS" to the mobile phone number "33444" you will instantly receive your "hack"/habit tracker/habit development template, or you can download it here: thehabitfactor.com/templates.

"If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape one hundred days of sorrow." ~Chinese Proverb  On this Frequently Asked Friday, we tackle the question: How can I kill my negative emotions? Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering. There's no winning with emotions such as hate, anger, jealousy, and fear. (Although as we learned in Season 3's episode, The Value of Negative Emotions, there is a useful place for some of these feelings.) When negative emotions infiltrate your mind, how can you change gears? Creating space and changing your environment—getting out of your own head—is key. When you take a moment to make a good choice, growth and freedom can come as a result. Listen in for more on tips and techniques to deal with negative emotions, releasing and moving on before you're swallowed by negative emotions, and developing the habit of eliminating these emotions by substituting them with positive emotions.

"When you quiet the mind and think about developing a product, you realize there has to be a big idea behind the niche space you're targeting.” ~Mark Schmid Habits2Goals is proud to present a conversation with inventor, entrepreneur, and leader Mark Schmid, aka "Schmiddy." With 32 years of product design and brand launch experience, Mark has created multiple industry-leading companies in the action sports space.

He soon began inventing and marketing skateboarding products in a world before YouTube, successfully expanding into more action-sports ventures.   Listen in to hear more about what sparked Mark's unique entrepreneurial journey, how to generate space for creative vision, and how to become personally responsible for your own happiness and misery—in life and in business.   Enjoy the episode!

"No tomorrow. No today. No yesterday." ~Sheng-ts "Before enlightenment, chop wood and carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood and carry water.” ~Zen Proverb Today's Mind Bullet Monday takes us back...to the future. This subject matter is pulled directly from The Habit Factor®. Martin reads from the Epilogue sharing the story about the time his daughter, Eva (7), asked her mom, "When is the future created?" She then shared the question with Martin, who was left puzzled as though it were a Zen Koan. Ultimately, he shared the question on Facebook to which a friend responded, "Tomorrow! Tell Eva that the future is created tomorrow!" Gleaning insight shared by a great Zen master thousands of years ago, Martin realized the real answer. The true beauty, though, of the answer lies in the realization that it is our habits—NOW—regardless of our past, that plant the seeds of our future.  With this realization we can and should use the NOW to forge the habits that will lead us to our ideal future.

"When the student is ready, the master appears." ~Buddha "Action is the real measure of intelligence.” ~Napoleon Hill On this Frequently Asked Friday, we tackle the question: What's the Best Way to Learn? This topic harkens back to Season 3's Learning Mastery, which explored the idea that our minds are more ripe at certain times, so continually studying a subject will yield new insights.  Today we explore whether it's better to learn something by studying or doing. In most cases, doing—gaining the experience—will teach you more than any book, podcast, or conference ever could.  Sometimes we're hesitant to take action because we want everything to be just right. We want to have all the answers before we take a risk. But this robs us of the great learning experiences we gain by diving right it. Doing begets learning; learning comes from experience.  Two key learning criteria to keep in mind are curiosity and pain (Check out this article on Fast Company.) We all understand why curiosity is important; it's a desire to learn. But pain is a great teacher. Think of all the lessons you've learned in life, and you'll see how pain was involved. (Read about the Feynman Technique model for learning.) Listen in for more on how knowledge comes from experience, how pain is part of the process, and why diving in and taking action yields the best results.

"The key to a healthy 'no' is to remember the 'yes' that the 'no' is making space for.” Alan Cohen Today's Mind Bullet, Yes and No, is inspired by online "wisdom" that says the key to success is learning to say no . . . or yes. Billionaire Warren Buffet is quoted as saying that the key to his success is saying no, because saying no creates focus and helps you set priorities. Richard Branson, on the other hand, attributes his success to saying yes to everything, because saying yes means you're learning and growing. So which is it? Yes or no? Don't fall into the trap of dichotomous thinking. It's not about always saying yes or always saying no. It's about knowing when to say yes and when to say no.  Listen in to hear more about the dangers of dichotomous thinking, using your intuition to figure out when to say yes or no, and why there is a place for binary thinking, especially when it comes to tracking habits.  *** New listeners: By texting the word "HABITS" to the mobile phone number "33444" you will instantly receive your "hack"/habit tracker/habit development template, or you can download it here: thehabitfactor.com/templates.
