In 2022, a study published in Psychology Today found that 88% of people feel worse after procrastinating. Procrastination is undoubtedly one of the most common barriers to success—but what if you could break free from it starting today?
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. There’s no denying the fact that we get an immediate sense of relief when we procrastinate. But the downside is we sabotage ourselves and create additional stress in the process.
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.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll know that I’ve always believed in the power of affirmations to transform lives, and this episode will reinforce why they’re such a game-changer. You’ll hear how two simple words, “I am,” helped one of my favorite people go from a broke 19-year-old to a millionaire in just three years.
Dan McCormick is a keynote speaker, business coach, entrepreneur, and author of Awakening Who “I Am”: Two Words to Ignite Your Transformation. He shares how his personal development journey was inspired by reading books by Zig Ziglar and Og Mandino and how he used affirmations to rebuild his self-worth and self-esteem to transform his life.
In our conversation, we’ll explore the nuances of affirmations. You’ll hear why Dan believes starting your mornings on social media impedes your success and how applying simple yet profound daily practices can help you overcome limiting beliefs and unlock your potential for transformational success and happiness.

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.

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.

Over the past few weeks in the Miracle Year Series, we've been laying the foundation to make 2025 your best year ever. 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. What I've learned is that it's not about reaching for the sky and achieving life-changing goals. It's about the small, consistent steps that actually move the needle.
Today, I'll share three simple but powerful steps to help you follow through on your goals, even on those days when you're struggling to motivate yourself. 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.
As a reminder, this series culminates with the Miracle Year Live Event on January 8th. This event brings everything we've covered full circle, so grab your spot by visiting MiracleYearLive.com
