Achieve Your Goals with Hal Elrod

What if the fastest way to unlock clarity, connection, and emotional healing wasn't through another mindset shift but through your breathwork? Don't knock it before you try it.

589: Learn Less to Achieve More with Pat Flynn

Achieve Your Goals with Hal Elrod

From an early age, we’re taught that the more you know, the better. But times have changed, as must our approach to learning. More information is overwhelming, confusing, and slows us down. If information alone were the answer, we’d all be exactly where we want to be. The true indicator of success or failure isn’t the volume of what you know but how effectively you apply that knowledge. Whether it’s consuming podcasts and books or keeping up with social media on top of our work and family life, many of us spend time learning but struggle to implement what we’ve learned. ...

583: The Blueprint for Inner Bliss

Achieve Your Goals with Hal Elrod

We spend our lives balancing two forces: the actions we take (what we do) and the emotions that shape our inner world (how we feel). Last week, I addressed the first with a podcast episode titled The Shortcut to Self-Discipline (), which teaches how we can get ourselves to do what we need to do, when we need to do it—whether we feel like it or not.

How do you feel about the current state of our world? Personally, I’ve got mixed feelings. On one hand, this is a crazy time in human history. People are dying, millions are unemployed, and many of our freedoms are being threatened or altogether taken away. All of this saddens me.

However, on the other hand, people from all walks of life are uniting and working together to incite change. Protests are happening around the world, corrupt police officers are being held accountable, and people are courageously speaking up against injustice. All of this gives me hope.

The cause that has been at the forefront of my mind is racial equality. This is a topic that is new to me, so I’m listening and learning as much as I can. I’ve realized that racism is more than just words, beliefs and actions. It includes all the barriers that prevent people from enjoying dignity and equality because of their race.

Joining me today, to talk about this and much more, is my good friend Preston Smiles. Preston is the author of Love Louder, and he is a wise, courageous leader who has been unafraid to stand up for what he believes in. He has a uniquely modern, love-based approach to living, and today you’ll gain his insights on everything from the “four levels of consciousness” to Preston’s experiences as a black person in America, and ultimately how we can all elevate our consciousness to be better and live well as we do difficult, necessary work within ourselves, our families, and our communities.

Every time I talk with Preston, I walk away feeling inspired, empowered, and equipped to be a better version of myself, and I believe that you will as well.
