110: Master These 3 Forces to Gain Control of Your Life
What do you actually control in this life? And how can you control more of it? We are all constantly told to focus only on those things we can control, and ignore those we cannot. But understanding what parts of our life we do actually control may be simpler than you realize. Rob is here to tell you that it’s nothing more than these forces: your thoughts, actions and emotions. That’s literally it. Everything you have control over in your entire life is one of those three things. In this episode, we talk through how these essential elements integrate to make up your entire existence. Also, how you can gain control of each of them and make them work together to control a much greater portion of your life. With that sort of power, you can purposefully guide your life toward its absolute ideal. Learn more about this episode.

109: How to Always Keep Momentum
Are you depressed? Or did you just lose momentum? Momentum is more important to your existence and your happiness than you may realize. It is the thing that drives you toward the future you desire. If you maintain forward motion, you don’t have time to dwell. But when you stop, you stagnate and leave room for anxiety to creep in. If you find yourself moving backward, you could be on the road to depression. In this episode, Rob details how to always keep momentum going, constantly moving forward toward a better future and a harmonious life. As a key driver of wellbeing, momentum is volatile, and thus can be lost or reversed if not actively maintained. The key is to understand momentum, what it feels like, and how to perpetuate it every day to avoid disruption and escalate progress. Learn more about this episode.

108: High Quality Energy vs. Low Quality Energy
Do you understand the structure of your energy? The driving force of your life is energy. And the more you understand what it is, and the difference between feeling high quality energy and low quality or negative energy, the better you can optimize your life for the former. In this episode, Rob dives in on the components that determine the quality of your energy. When you have knowledge about what you’re doing, when you truly understand something, it makes it easy, success is more likely, and that provides high quality energy. When you’re clear about your goals and where you’re going, you can get excited and feel more motivated about every step it takes to get there. These factors contribute to belief that you will achieve next steps. Versus, when your future aspirations are vague, you don’t really understand the thing you’re trying to do, and thus you don’t have any logical reason to believe in yourself. These things create low quality energy, make everything harder, and prevent you from living the life you deserve. Learn more about this episode.

107: Your Health and Decision-Making are Completely Intertwined
Health has as much effect on how you think as it does on how you look. When we think about improving our health, it is most often associated with looking better and generally feeling better. But there is also a direct correlation between the quality of your health and the quality of your decision-making. When you are eating right, exercising and getting enough sleep, your mind is clearer. When your brain is sharp, you procrastinate less, you process information faster, you contextualize inputs properly, and you’re able to be more decisive in important moments. Setting your mind up for consistent, successful decision-making will ultimately have a compounding positive effect on your overall life. And it all begins with committing to improving and maintaining your health. Learn more about this episode. Subscribe to Dyrdek Machine Join our Machinist Community Want to be on the show?

106: The #1 Reason You Need Systems & Automation in Your Life
Automate your way toward energy neutrality and effortlessness. The reality is that you have limited time and energy to deploy on this thing you call your life. They are both finite resources. And even if you don’t realize it, you are constantly driving aspects of your life toward a state of energy neutral. Unfortunately, bad habits and destructive systems can be a part of this if you don’t consciously control them. The elements that have a profoundly positive effect on your life, such as your health and fitness, diet, and clarity of goals, take effort up front, but if you are able to automate them toward energy neutrality, you can improve your everyday life with little to no effort on an ongoing basis. This episode is a deep dive into the process and philosophy of systematizing and automating the net positive aspects, and identifying and eliminating the negative habits to achieve a more fulfilling, effortless existence.

105: Think of Manifestation as a Magic Goal
What is it that you most want to manifest? In this episode, Rob takes us on a deep dive into what it takes to manifest that which you desire, through the lens of clarity. The clearer you are in knowing what you want the future to be, the more likely you will be able to manifest it through your present and future actions. Manifestation is not just wishing or hoping something will happen and expecting the desired result. It is a skill that must be developed over time, working in tandem with a crystal clear picture of how one wishes to shape the future. It requires the ability to place yourself in the future in your mind, feel the feelings, smell the smells, hear the sounds, and trick your mind into believing the images you conjure are real. Whether or not you believe in magic, by learning to manifest through clarity and practice, it sure can seem like it. Learn more about this episode.
