Happy Mindset Monday!
Jerrid Sebesta told me something I can't stop thinking about.
Most people who feel stuck try to fix it with more. More hustle. More discipline. Another goal. Another strategy.
He says the problem is usually four layers down.
Jerrid is a keynote speaker, Amazon bestselling author of Life-Undeferred, and what he calls a performance reprogrammer. He walks people through four layers: your actions, your beliefs, your identity, and underneath it all, the source code that got written when you were a kid.
And here's the part that got me. He says he can get someone on the phone and, in about twelve minutes, connect the result they're not getting today to a piece of code that got written thirty or forty years ago.
We got into a lot in this one.
Why more effort can actually reinforce the wrong pattern
The difference between performance and presence (I opened up about my own here)
His ocean and hurricane metaphor for where peace actually lives
Why he stopped "chasing" goals, and what the word chasing is really telling you
The three thoughts I come back to every single morning
And then Jerrid shared the story of his mom. Being in the room when she passed. Realizing that tens of thousands of phone calls over forty years had been preparing him for the work he does now.
That part stayed with me for days.
If you're doing everything right and it still feels heavy, this one's worth your time. You might not need to work harder. You might need to get honest about who's doing the work.
