The Jim Fortin Podcast

Start Your Transformation NowIn this episode you discover why you’ve worked really hard, put in all the effort, the hours, the blood sweat and tears and you’re still not getting the results you want. If you’re like most people you are working backward—working from the “have do be” model. If I had the money then I could hire someone and grow my business. This is a broken model! The model that you want to start working from is what I call “be do have” model. “Who or how do I have to be to do the things that I choose to do to have the success that I want?”In this episode I talk about: [5:06] Are you working from and identity that sabotages you? [9:20] How perfectionism didn’t stop me from getting this podcast out [11:45] How most people are working backward [14:10] The “be do have” model (if you’re not using this, you’re sabotaging yourself!) [18:22] Why people are setting goals in the wrong way [24:37] The reason you haven’t created what you want to create in life [30:40] Who are you really? Where were you before you landed on this planet? [32:57] A powerful question to start asking yourself Transformational Takeaway: What am I committed to and how or who do I have to be to achieve _____?Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaLet's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowYou probably believe in the Law of Attraction, but if you’re like most people you’re struggling with money. And this is because you’re most likely using law of attraction against you. If this is you, listen to this episode now because we're about to change all that for you!People who have money work from prosperity consciousness. They are engaging the Law of Attraction in a way that actually attracts money for them, instead of repelling money for them. When it comes to money, most people focus on not having it and they focus on lack. What you put out in thought is what you attract back, and most people engage in the Law of Attraction because they need money, and therefore are in fear and desperation, and that’s what they are vibrating and feeling and attracting back.In this episode, you are going to learn how to manage your emotions which affect your frequency, what your prosperity consciousness is, how you feel about being rich, and separating your money from your work.In this episode I talk about: [2:49] Everything you have in your life or don’t have is reflecting who and how you’re BEing unconsciously, and who and how you are BEing in your thought. The universe does not test you, it reflects you. [9:28] HUGE myth: Money comes from hard work! [15:40] Exact steps that you need to master to use the Law of Attraction to actually bring money to you as opposed to repelling money for you like it did in the past. [49:10] One of the easiest ways to change your prosperity consciousness. Transformational Takeaway: Wherever you have your attention, wherever you have your emotions, that’s what you attract. Use the Law of Attraction to attract money instead of repelling money. Focus on emotional abundance. I must be emotionally abundant if I want to attract financial abundance.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaThe Kybalion: A Study of Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and GreeceDisclosure: Some of the links above are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a small commission if you make a purchase.Let's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowJim Rohn said, “Never start your day until you finish it on paper,” and I say, “Never start your day until you finish it in your mind”.I kept this episode short and simple and I talk about my morning routine.Most of us get “swept away” by the world the minute we open our eyes in the morning, and we lose ourselves in the world.In this episode I talk about: [3:12] How simple and powerful a morning routine can be [4:57] How I start my day [6:11] Where I start my day in my home [9:27] And, the power of setting your morning intent. I cannot stress enough the importance of setting your intent every morning and soon I’ll follow up with an episode on the Power of Intention.Transformational Takeaway: Never start your day until you have first finished it in your mind.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaLet's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowWhat I talk about in this episode I’ve mentioned before but I talk about it here with a metaphor that hits home for everyone.Honestly, many years ago I used to read tons of books, think positively and thought that I was a good manager of my thinking, but that was far from the truth – despite my belief that it was so.In this episode I talk about: [3:16] The metaphor for the mind and thought management [4:13] The correlation between thinking and outcomes in life [5:09] Why it’s important to be careful with your thoughts [7:08] Why just “thinking positive” is not the answer [9:54] How the universe shows no mercy upon our thoughts [20:11] And, why it’s essential that you become aware of your skill to manage your thoughts. James Allen, written back in the 1880s, wrote a book called As A Man Thinketh, and the entire book is aligned with this short podcast, because…Transformational Takeaway: You’re the “foreman” of your mind, and your life is a reflection of how good of a foreman you are.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaEpisode 9: How The Law Of Attraction Repels The Money And Abundance You WantLet's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowLife is all about structure and full of structure and most of us are “structured” beings, yet, most of us also use structure to keep ourselves trapped in our current situations.The truth is this, to transform our life we have to break our structures and ways of thinking and BEing.Whatever you have or don’t have in life right now is a reflection of your “structures.”In this episode I talk about: [5:49] Why you have to break your structures to transform your life [6:52] The structures that keep you trapped [7:42] The definition of structures [10:27] Why we have to change ourselves [11:16] Why not changing your structures amounts to no change in life [12:01] The fact that your inside structures determine your outside structures [17:19] Structures are not just analytical [23:32] And, the fact that we have to set our intent to change structures The reality is this, as I stated in the podcast opening, we live by structures of thinking, habit and being and if we don’t change that, nothing changes.My intention is that this episode gives you a new perspective on personal transformation and you begin to stop trying to change on the outside and you finally realize that you must first change on the inside.Transformational Takeaway: For life to change, you must change your structures.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaEpisode 49 : Using Your Subconscious Mind To Tap Into Who You Need To BE To Create The Life Of Your DreamsLet's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowThis was a great question that Peter asked. Also, the bigger part of his question was about creating extreme wealth like Gates, Bezos, Zuckerberg, etc without “working hard.”Peter asked if it was possible to create extreme wealth without working hard.In this episode I talk about: [3:01] The many variables to be found in his question [5:01] The degrees and variations of hard work [7:05] What constitutes “hard work?” [10:32] The role of prosperity consciousness is creating wealth [11:54] AND….the single factor that created extreme wealth for the people mentioned Many years ago I read the classic book, “The Science of Getting Rich” and there were many takeaways but there was one that has helped me “get rich,” and I share it in this podcast. I have found it to be foolproof and air-tight. And, if it worked for me, it will work for you. This one thing that I share with you in this podcast can make you rich, I promise!Transformational Takeaway: The easiest path to wealth is expansion for others.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought Formula“The Science of Getting Rich” by Wallace WattlesDisclosure: Some of the links above are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a small commission if you make a purchase.Let's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowNo matter what happens to you, it has no meaning except the meaning that you give it.The very same thing can happen to two different people and it’s obvious that each person will give it a different meaning…and reaction/response.The concept isn’t new however, so few people live by the power of this concept.In this episode I talk about: [1:18] Various scenarios that each of us give different meaning to [4:09] Why you give everything meaning [6:05] The fact that you’re a “meaning-making machine” [7:57] The implications of living from external meanings [9:25] When people are judging you they are simply giving meaning to you [15:48] What it means when people “die” [21:46] Why good/bad meanings lead to indecision And, like I say in every episode synopsis…a lot more.This concept has the absolute power to literally transform your life, yet, we have to integrate this concept and start working from it. This concept will set you free from the ups and downs of life.Transformational Takeaway: Nothing has any meaning except the meaning you give it.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaEPISODE 82: Q & A – How do I stop doubting myself?Let's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowI picked this Q & A question because I think so many people can relate to it.Also, I kept it simple in this episode as I gave you the counter thinking that I work from when it comes to things going “right or wrong” in my life.In this episode I talk about: [3:38] The interpretations we’re making when life is not going “right?” [6:31] The relativity of life going right [7:56] Attachments and expectations about how life is to be [9:05] And finally, perhaps things do happen for a lack of skills I really had one objective with this episode. The objective is to take you from understanding to knowing this week’s transformational takeaway.Transformational Takeaway: Things always have been, are now and will always be fine in life.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaLet's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowHow many times have you tried to change and failed and then said things like…“I’m so weak, I have no willpower, I can’t trust myself,” and the like?Well, the truth is this, when you’ve tried to change in the past and failed, it’s not about you personally, it’s about your habits. More specifically, it’s about your reptilian brain habits.So, when you’ve tried to change before and failed, it has nothing to do with weakness, it simply has to do with knowing how to work with your brain.In this episode I talk about: [2:30] How personalizing your habits is a mistake [3:50] Why your habits are not about “you” [5:29] Why you are not your habits [7:14] The fact that you’ve been indoctrinated into who you are [10:23] How your indoctrination keeps you trapped [18:03] Your money and health indoctrination [21:25] And, the reason you should choose your self-indoctrination I often tell people, “You’re not at the mercy of your circumstances, you’re at the mercy of your interpretations.” And, it’s vital that you not personalize your habits and your interpretations because you’re then working against yourself in your quest for change and transformation.Transformational Takeaway: You are not weak, you are not at the mercy of your circumstances and indoctrination, you are at the mercy of what you CHOOSE to indoctrinate yourself with, your self-talk and habits.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaEpisode 8: Reprogramming Your Subconscious Mind For Health, Wealth And HappinessLet's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Start Your Transformation NowIf you’ve tried to change before and failed you’ll love this short episode. It’s not your fault, it’s your brain and you’re not getting the changes you want because you’re working against your brain’s natural function.It’s epidemic…people trying to change yet they get little to no change in life and then they usually become more and more frustrated and just give up.In this episode I talk about: [2:44] Habits and episode # 83 [3:19] Subconscious reprogramming and episode # 80 [3:59] How all habits and patterns come from your reptilian brain [6:55] Why your brain craves predictability [10:06] Why you get anxious when you try to change [15:59] And, why change is so hard In this episode, I refer you back to a few others and then share the simple attitude you must embrace to create long term change in life.Transformational Takeaway: 1) Your reptilian brain loves predictability, 2) Your reptilian brain creates anxiety as a survival mechanism and, 3) Your old habits are simply that, habits.Mentioned Resources:Master Thought FormulaThe Power of your Subconscious Mind-Joseph MurphyEpisode 8: Reprogramming Your Subconscious Mind For Health, Wealth And HappinessEPISODE 80: Q&A – How do I increase my self-worth?EPISODE 83: You speak your life into existence.Disclosure: Some of the links above are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a small commission if you make a purchase.Let's Connect: Instagram Facebook YouTube LinkedIn LIKED THE EPISODE?If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.
