Great post! I too am a SH junkie. But I always use my mp3's as a source of daily inspiration like a fresh shower in the morning. They have helped me move towards a dream of operating a exceptional B&B in the country. Thanks to inspirational folks like you Jason and Jacob we are a month away from moving into our new home on 5 acres that was specifically designed for the purpose of a B&B. It all started years ago when we stayed at a B&B during a very turbulent and stressful time in my life and it was such a relaxing experience that all I could ever think of was how cool of a job it would be to make other people feel as relaxed as I was. n nThrough great teachers I learned to appreciate my "job" as a tool to help me achieve my purpose. It was very transformational. n nKeep spreading the goodness! n
Job as a tool to help rock your purpose… that's a language i speak! Great stuff!
Paul! What an amazing story! Congrats on making it happen for you and your family, such a huge accomplishment! ACTION BABY!!! Thanks for the love!
Hi Jason, I'm committing myself to finding two new jobs I can apply for by Sunday, complete with cover-letters. I tend to be perfectionist about the cover letters, but it's time that I accept imperfections and present myself as I am. Like you said, Action is top priority. Wish me luck!
LUCK!!!
Hey Lauren! Wonderfully specific goals! I think its great that you are going to take action and just make it happen! I always say "don't let good be the enemy of perfect", trust in your self and your abilities, get the cover letters ready and PRESS SEND 🙂 n nGood luck, you are going to ROCK IT!
nice!!! awsome video!! my commitment is with my body and health! i wanna take care of the food i eat and making time to workout.:) lets do that!!!:))))
Heck yeah Vane!! Go for it! Can't wait to see your progress!
Great dance moves at the end there, Jacob. 🙂 n nI am going to get to work reading about SEO and sticking to my workout plan.
LOL. Burning Man lives on!
Hey Rachel, yeah I think Jacob could totally have a 2nd career as a Lady Gaga Backup dancer!!! HAHA! n nGood for you Rachel for the workout plan, thats awesome! Remember not to spend TOO much time researching the SEO and start taking some action on getting it implemented 🙂
Jason, this definitely speaks to my current situation in life right now! Here are some of my (very mundane) action steps I feel I can take for the next five days: n1. Write one new post. n2. Proofread my old posts. n3. Add photos. n4. Fix my newsletter box thingy. n5. Take a portrait for my website. n nLoved the video guys, thanks!
Rolando! Dude whats up! These are not mundane to me at all! These are all ACTION which is never a mundane task! Way to go man, you are going to crush these hard! Can't wait to see the results! n nThanks man! n nJG
Hey Jason, wanted to get back to this thread and share what went down: n nSo I completed all of these except for 1 & 3; I wrote daily though, so I don't feel to bad about the first :). I did, however, manage to reach to someone to be my 1st potential "client." It didn't work out too well, but I'm glad I actually tried to "break the seal" and get my first buck (remember the minimum viable product from the last vid?). n nThanks a lot, Jason. You've been a great role model and this past week was really helpful in building momentum.
Ro! Thanks for the update! You DEFINITELY took ACTION my friend and i'm SUPER proud of you! Well done! n nThat's so awesome about the 1st potential client man, and its totally ok if it didnt go exactly as planned. Its a fantastic learning experience and just as jacob told me when i first started coaching, the best way to become a better coach…IS TO COACH! Same goes for you, the best way to become better at getting clients is to practice getting clients! You are gonna rock it bro! n nMuch love, I'm so happy this was helpful for you! n nJG
Jason, I agree totally. I had an English teacher who told me, "if you want to be a writer, WRITE! nDid I follow that advice? No. Along with action there must be resolve to show up every day. I just kept getting sidetracked along the way. nHmm, Do you have any advice for people with ADD?
I was a "shelf help" worker too. Now I'm having an affair with at least six different on-line gurus like yourself. n
LOL @ the on-line affairs with gurus! Awareness is key, from awareness comes choice my friend! n nI have had issues in the past with staying focused and always wanting to multi-task or let myself take a quick 5 minute break (which turns in to 30) to check email and then it takes me equally as long to get back into the swing of things. n nI like to set the timer on my iphone for an hour at a time and work ONLY on one task/project/item at that time. No e-mail, facebook, reading, phone calls, NADA! Then when that hour is up, i can decide to set the timer again for the same task, a different task or to take a mental break. n nThe other thing I do to try to help myself not be tempted to check email all the time is that I have removed all of the shortcuts to email on my desktop and taskbar of my computer. Now I have to click start –> programs –> microsoft office –> Microsoft outlook. Just having this extra barrier really helps to keep me on track. n nA few of my other videos may help too: n* Setting up barriers for things you do not want to do instead of relying on willpower: http://www.meometry.com/willpower-stepladder/ n n* My number one tool to be more productive: http://www.meometry.com/my-number-one-tool-to-be-… n nNow of COURSE, you have to promise that if you watch these, you will take IMMEDIATE action after to make the make them a part of your life 🙂 n nLots of love and thanks for sharing Maureen! n nJG
Ah I love you JG! You kick ass my friend. Ok this week I am going to plan my first out of town meditation workshop! It has been sitting in the 'I'm to chicken' pile long enough! Time to jump on board the action train. Thank you!
You know I love you too Cara! GET IT GIRL, those people need you and your awesomeness in their lives! Give it to em! n nJG
I see you JG! — Yes, taking action is key. Loved the "L-O-L my friends" as well as the cameo by Jacob. You are on fire. I love your work and wisdom. You inspire me. Hugs, high-fives and all that good stuff. You rock!
HAHA!! I spend way too much time on social media and email obviously! n nThanks for the love T, you know you inspire me right back! n nJG
Loved the vid guys. This one really hit home. I have stacks upon stacks of "shelf"-help books, which are incredible at collecting dust. Instead of heading over to Barnes and Noble or Amazon this week, I'm going to take ACTION on these five things: n-Listen to my daily Japanese audio lesson. n-Learn/Review daily list of Kanji (Japanese characters). n-Write three pages of free-flow first thing in the morning. n-Meditate five minutes a day. n-Send an important email to a friend that I've been procrastinating on. n nKeep up the excellent work!
This is SO GREAT! These are actions steps that do not only improve your life BUT (especially with the last one) improve the lives of those around you! That is the best kind of action my friend! Keep rockin it! n nJG – See more at: https://www.sensophy.com/confessions-selfhelp-whor…

*Just* got around to this! Great vid!! Self help/ personal growth addict here! nAction steps: nGratitude journal nGet back on the meditation mat (a.m. AND p.m. – the PM medi is VERY powerful!) nTake a breath when I judge another : ( nConnect AND feel my self in my body, as guided my Jacob on the call this week… nxo. nMuch gratitude, Jason! and Jacob! : )
mmm, "take a breath when I judge another"..thats a GREAT one! Bravo for having the awareness to know that acceptance of others can be very healthy and help to remove some stress. Love your dedication to yourself and others in this one. n nLots of love V! n nJG
Good points! Reading a self help book without practicing what it preaches offers you entertainment value only. Learn, do, and put heavy emphasis on the doing. n nRyan
Thanks Ryan! I appreciate the comment. You are absolutely right! Entertainment (or edu-tainment) is great but ya gotta getz ta the doin! n nThanks again bro! n nJG
Jason, n nLoved the title of this post. Simply awesome! I have been a bit of a selfhelp whore myself and have consumed quite a few books in my time. Perhaps not out on the street corner tricking for personal development, but certainly too much reading and not enough of the big "A" word. n nI agree with you completely. I still think slef help books have a place, they can give nuggets of wisdom and inspiration/motivation, but without solid action backing them up, you would be better served wasting your time looking at pictures of LOLCatz
HAHA LOL Catz never get old! Thanks for the insights SJ! I still love reading PD/SH books, but i'm trying to be more selective about the ones that may fill in gaps in my knowledge base OR will do something to help me with trends i'm seeing from my clients. Nuggets o' wisdom are always important, especially when they are used as motivation for change! n nThanks again! n nJG
Some challenging stuff right there. There are so many people who go thru the personal development routing of books, cd's, video, seminars, coaching but do they ever really become successful. I have now found one who actually wants to see you get real results! I loved it, hope you will too. A Bug Free Mind, check it out.
So believe this! But dont do it! Will be less hypocrit! Amazing to know that there are other ppl with the same addiction out there haha rnSelf help books!theyre dangerous! Jason man thanks for giving a express lane out of the “rat race”.rnI will act Now! rnJust Gotta get emotions and body to agree to mind haha
Awesome video, JG. I’m going to paint, draw, and paint some more. Every day.
