Compounding Happiness

"By telling yourself repeatedly to 'just think positive,' you are denying your ability to experience the present moment. You are subjecting yourself to the past or projecting yourself into the future, both in hopes that it feels better than where you currently are. That mindset is what is creating the fear, not your actual circumstance." On this episode, I do a deep-dive into the negative effects of always "being positive." I discuss where this level of thinking was formed, ways to feel your emotions without them leading you into a downward spiral, the difference between positivity and optimism, and much more! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and check out my website for more content like this! https://www.jeremyfrisk.com/

“Giving your inspired energy to something will catapult it 100X what just this average, monotonous energy will do when you settle. And it usually takes patience to sit, wait, breathe, and relax your body so you’re fully prepared to go all in when (that opportunity) shows up.” On this episode, I am joined by Chris Marhefka, CEO and facilitator of Training Camp for the Soul! Chris’s background involves starting multiple businesses where he lived a life conditional on achieving. Now in his late 30’s, he’s leading men in releasing trauma and developing healthy, masculine leaders. We discuss unconscious belief patterns and developmental traumas, challenges that are often overlooked growing up in an upper middle class family, handling the guilt of “I should be happy but I’m not,” and losing your identity in personal development.

“Does how we show up for a situation in our minds affect physical reality? Time is one part physical, one part perception… so the answer is yes, you can affect your reality by shifting your perception.” On this episode, I am joined by Lisa Broderick as we dive into her new book, All the Time in the World. Lisa is a senior executive whose career has been defined by understanding how technology impacts society and changes behavior, specifically quantum science in this conversation! We discuss what time is and how we can use it to our advantage, why time slows down/speeds up in flow state, how the concept of time has changed historically, and rethinking the fundamentals of time itself in order to master it.
