Welcome to The Jason Wright Show! In today’s thought-provoking monologue, we delve deep into the concept of fear and explore whether we often find ourselves fearing the wrong things. Drawing inspiration from Proverbs 7:1, which states that the beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord, we will ponder the profound wisdom encapsulated in this ancient proverb. Fear is an innate human emotion, and it plays a significant role in shaping our decisions and actions. But what if, as suggested by the renowned psychologist and thinker Jordan Peterson, our focus should not solely be on courage, but on fearing the right things? Join us as we unpack this intriguing perspective and discover how it can transform the way we approach fear in our lives. Throughout this monologue, we’ll reflect on various aspects of fear: The Nature of Fear: What is fear, and why do we experience it? We’ll delve into the psychology behind fear to better understand its roots and manifestations. The Wisdom of Proverbs: We’ll explore the biblical wisdom found in Proverbs 7:1, where it is stated that the beginning of wisdom is fear of the Lord. What does this mean, and how can it guide us in our lives? Jordan Peterson’s Perspective: Discover the insights of Jordan Peterson, a prominent voice in psychology and philosophy, as he emphasizes the importance of fearing the right things for personal growth and development. Overcoming Fear: We’ll discuss practical strategies for overcoming irrational fears and redirecting our focus towards what truly matters.

Wow! What a fascinating life. David Packouz has lived such a crazy life a portion of it was worthy of a blockbuster film-“War Dogs” War Dogs Official Trailer-David Packouz was portrayed by Miles Teller This was such a great conversation with a serial entrepreneur who has gone from boom to bust and finally to normal. David Mordechai Packouz (born February 16, 1982) is an American former arms dealer, musician, and inventor. In 2005, Mr. Paccoes joined Ephraim DiVeroli of DiVeroli’s arms company AEY Inc. By the end of 2006, the company had won 149 contracts worth approximately $10.5 million. In early 2007, AEY won a $300 million U.S. government contract to supply the Afghan Army with 100 million rounds of AK-47 ammunition, millions of rounds of SVD Dragunov sniper rifles, aeronautical rockets and other ammunition. . The ammunition that AEY secured in Albania to fulfill the contract originally came from China and violated a clause in the contract between AEY and the US military that prohibited Chinese ammunition. Pakouz recognized that its products were banned and unacceptable, and contributed to the cover-up of the munitions’ origins. As a result of this contract and the propaganda around the arms dealer’s age, when AEY closed the ammunition deal, Paccoes was 25 and Diveroli was 21, prompting the U.S. Army to begin reviewing contracting procedures. Paccoes was sentenced to seven months in prison. House arrest for conspiracy to defraud the United States. He is the central subject of the 2016 Todd Phillips drama film War Dogs. Pakouz himself has a cameo in the film as a guitarist and singer in a retirement home. Packouz invented the guitar pedal drum machine BeatBuddy and is currently CEO of music technology company Singular Sound.

So it begins. The <50 Project. I am on a mission to slow and or reverse my biological age as much as I possibly can. To that end, I’ve engaged the assistance of my friend Dr. Gus Vickery, M.D. In this episode we are going to discuss where the journey begins. We go over each and every biological marker test I will take to get a picture of where we’re starting from. Then once the reports are in I will share with you, The Jason Wright Show audience, just how old I really am biologically. From there I will document my efforts to slow the clocks. I think this will be a fun journey with many ups and downs, and I want you to be alone for the ride! ——————————————————— Follow me on Social Media Intagram Twitter YouTube FaceBook LinkedIn ———————————————————– Grab a Copy of My Books “The Stone Chiseler” “Push Play: Taking Your Life Off Pause” ——————————————————– Want to Improve always in ALL ways?  Please checkout The Vitruvian Lab, my personal training and coaching site for both live and on-line training for: Health and Longevity Mindset Optimization Behavioral Science Business Mentoring ——————————————————– Thank you for listening to The Jason Wright Show.

Title: The Power of Words: How Self-Talk Can Sabotage Our Goals and Actions Introduction Words have an incredible influence over our lives, from shaping our thoughts and beliefs to guiding our actions and decisions. But have you ever considered how the words you tell yourself can either drive you towards your goals or sabotage your efforts? In this blog, we will delve into the impact of self-talk on our aspirations, particularly in the context of procrastination. We’ll also draw inspiration from W. Clement Stone’s “Do it now” philosophy and discuss how initiatives like the Jason Wright Show’s Authentic Health Fridays with Dr. Gus Vickery aim to help individuals optimize their health. The Power of Self-Talk Our inner dialogue, or self-talk, can either be our greatest ally or our most formidable adversary. The words we choose to use when thinking or speaking about our goals and actions can significantly influence the outcomes we achieve. Negative self-talk, filled with doubt and procrastination, can be particularly damaging. Procrastination: The Silent Goal Killer Procrastination, often fueled by negative self-talk, is one of the most insidious ways our goals are derailed. When we tell ourselves, “I’ll start tomorrow,” or “I’m not ready yet,” we create mental barriers that hinder progress. Procrastination robs us of precious time and prevents us from reaching our full potential. W. Clement Stone’s “Do it now” Philosophy W. Clement Stone, a successful businessman and philanthropist, believed in the power of immediate action. His mantra, “Do it now,” emphasizes the importance of taking swift and decisive steps towards one’s goals. Stone understood that procrastination is the enemy of progress and that the words we tell ourselves should always propel us forward. Authentic Health Fridays with Dr. Gus Vickery In the pursuit of our goals, whether they relate to our health, career, or personal development, it’s crucial to have the right guidance and support. The Jason Wright Show’s “Authentic Health Fridays with Dr. Gus Vickery” is one such initiative that aims to empower individuals to optimize their health based on their body’s unique design. Dr. Gus Vickery, a renowned expert in the field of health and wellness, encourages individuals to make positive changes in their lives by adopting a personalized approach to health. By understanding their bodies and needs, people can set realistic goals and overcome the negative self-talk that often sabotages their health journeys. The words we tell ourselves have the power to shape our destinies. Negative self-talk, driven by procrastination, can be a formidable obstacle on our path to success. To overcome these hurdles, we can draw inspiration from W. Clement Stone’s “Do it now” philosophy and seek guidance from experts like Dr. Gus Vickery on initiatives like the Jason Wright Show’s Authentic Health Fridays. Remember, the words you choose can either hold you back or propel you forward; choose them wisely and watch your goals become reality.

Breaking Bad Habits: The Power of Identity-Based Habits Today, we’re diving into the fascinating world of habit formation and how you can break free from those pesky bad habits that have been holding you back. We’ll explore the groundbreaking insights of James Clear, author of “Atomic Habits,” and discover the transformative concept of identity-based habits. Habits and Identity: Habits play a significant role in our lives, influencing our success, well-being, and overall happiness. James Clear’s book, “Atomic Habits,” has become a beacon of guidance for anyone looking to understand and harness the power of habits. Clear emphasizes the importance of identity-based habits, a concept that goes beyond the mere act of habit formation and delves deep into the core of our identities. The traditional approach to habit change often focuses on the behavior itself. For instance, if you want to quit smoking, you might focus on resisting the urge to light up. However, this approach can be limiting because it neglects the underlying beliefs and identity that drive the behavior. Identity-Based Habits Defined: Identity-based habits are grounded in the idea that true behavior change begins by first shifting your identity, the way you perceive yourself. Instead of trying to change what you do, you start by changing who you believe you are. This concept recognizes that we are more likely to stick with habits that align with our self-image. For instance, if you see yourself as a non-smoker rather than someone trying to quit smoking, the decision to decline a cigarette becomes less of a battle. Your identity has already integrated the habit, making it more natural and less strenuous to maintain. The Habit Loop: To understand identity-based habits better, let’s revisit the habit loop, a fundamental concept in “Atomic Habits.” The habit loop consists of three components: cue, routine, and reward. Traditionally, people focus on modifying the routine, but identity-based habits go deeper. Cue: This is the trigger that initiates the habit. Routine: The actual behavior or action. Reward: The positive outcome or feeling associated with completing the routine. Identity-based habits insert a crucial fourth element into this loop: Identity: The self-image or belief that underlies the habit. Practical Steps for Embracing Identity-Based Habits: Self-reflection: Begin by examining your current self-image. What identities are shaping your habits? Identify both the positive and negative aspects of your identity. Define your desired identity: Clearly articulate who you want to become. Instead of saying, “I want to lose weight,” say, “I am someone who values and prioritizes health.” Align habits with identity: Map out the behaviors that align with your desired identity. Break them down into smaller, manageable steps to make them more achievable. Consistency is key: Practice these identity-based habits consistently. Remember, you are not changing behaviors; you are transforming your identity. Embrace setbacks: Understand that changing your identity and habits is a journey with ups and downs. Don’t be discouraged by setbacks; instead, use them as opportunities for growth. Conclusion: Breaking bad habits and building new, positive ones is a transformative journey. James Clear’s concept of identity-based habits, as outlined in “Atomic Habits,” provides a powerful framework to help you make lasting changes in your life. By aligning your habits with your desired identity, you can unlock your full potential and create a life that reflects the person you aspire to be. Remember, it’s not just about what you do; it’s about who you believe you are. Embrace your new identity, and watch as your habits naturally fall in line with the life you’ve always wanted. So, go ahead, rewrite your story, and let your identity-based habits pave the way to a brighter future. ———————————————————Follow me on Social MediaIntagramTwitterYouTubeFaceBookLinkedIn———————————————————–Grab a Copy of My Books“The Stone Chiseler”“Push Play: Taking Your Life Off Pause”——————————————————–Want to Improve always in ALL ways? Please checkout The Vitruvian Lab, my personal training and coaching site for both live and on-line training for:Health and LongevityMindset OptimizationBehavioral ScienceBusiness Mentoring——————————————————–Thank you for listening to The Jason Wright Show.

Title: Taking Massive Action: The Key to Securing Your Financial Future In the journey towards financial success, one pivotal moment stands out—the moment when you make the conscious decision to take massive action. This decision is the cornerstone of getting your financial future in order and setting the stage for a life of financial freedom and security. Today, we’ll delve into why taking massive action on your finances is absolutely critical. 1. Overcoming Procrastination Procrastination is the enemy of progress when it comes to your finances. How many times have you thought about creating a budget, paying off debt, or starting an investment portfolio but kept delaying it for another day? Making the decision to take massive action means saying goodbye to procrastination and taking the first step. It’s about acknowledging that there will never be a perfect time to start, so why not begin today? 2. Setting Clear Goals Massive action goes hand in hand with setting clear financial goals. When you decide to take charge of your financial future, you’re also deciding to define what that future looks like. Whether your goals include buying a home, retiring early, or building an emergency fund, taking massive action is the driving force behind achieving those objectives. 3. Learning and Growing Financial education is an ongoing process. By taking massive action, you commit to continuously learning and growing in your financial knowledge. You seek out resources, attend workshops, and read books to expand your financial IQ. This dedication to learning ensures that you make informed decisions, ultimately leading to better financial outcomes. 4. Embracing Discipline Financial success often requires discipline, and taking massive action means embracing this discipline wholeheartedly. You create a budget, stick to it, and resist the urge to splurge on unnecessary expenses. Discipline also means consistently saving and investing, even when it’s tempting to spend that extra money. 5. Harnessing the Power of Compound Interest Lastly, taking massive action allows you to harness the incredible power of compound interest. The earlier you start saving and investing, the more time your money has to grow exponentially. This can significantly impact your long-term financial security, making the decision to take action even more critical. The Reticular Activating System (RAS) is a fascinating part of our brain that plays a crucial role in helping us reach our goals by filtering and prioritizing information from our surroundings. It acts as a kind of selective attention system, determining what information is relevant and important to us at any given moment. Here’s how the RAS can assist in achieving our goals: Enhancing Focus: The RAS helps us focus on what matters most by filtering out irrelevant information. When you set a clear goal, your RAS becomes attuned to any information or opportunities related to that goal. It’s like giving your brain a specific target to focus on amidst the noise of everyday life. Increased Awareness: Your RAS can heighten your awareness of resources and opportunities that were previously overlooked. For example, if you’re working on a career goal, your RAS may make you more alert to job openings, networking events, or training programs that align with your objectives. Motivation and Goal Alignment: The RAS can influence your motivation and decision-making. When you have a well-defined goal, your brain actively seeks stimuli and experiences that align with that goal. This can provide a continuous source of motivation and drive to take action towards achieving it. Improved Problem Solving: As your RAS focuses on your goals, it can also help you find creative solutions to obstacles or challenges that may arise. When your brain is tuned into a specific objective, it’s more likely to generate ideas and insights that can help you overcome roadblocks. Positive Self-Talk: The RAS can influence your internal dialogue and beliefs about your ability to reach your goals. When you consistently reinforce your objectives and achievements, your self-esteem and confidence can rise, making it easier to stay committed to your goals. Filtering Negative Influences: On the flip side, the RAS can help you filter out negative influences and distractions that could deter you from your goals. By focusing on what’s important, you become less susceptible to being sidetracked by unproductive activities. Improved Memory: The RAS can enhance memory retention for information related to your goals. It prioritizes the storage and retrieval of relevant data, which can be beneficial when learning new skills or acquiring knowledge necessary for achieving your goals. The Reticular Activating System serves as your brain’s personal assistant, helping you stay on track and work towards your goals. By clearly defining your objectives and consistently reinforcing them, you can leverage the power of the RAS to increase your awareness, motivation, and problem-solving abilities, ultimately improving your chances of success.
