On this episode of Mindset Hackers, I chat with Former Wall Street Lawyer, now an Executive Coach Hana Dhanji and we talk about the trappings of 'chasing success', the dopamine treadmill, and how to get off.

So many of us high performers try to control outcomes yet we miss out on the signs that the Universe is leaving right in front of us. We are always in a constant state of evolution and therefore what we know or can see at any given point, doesn't always give us the answers we need, but we need to trust that it will come into focus.

Hana has also been on the treadmill of success in her own path and she shares her backstory with us of chasing to become a Wall Street Lawyer and work in some of the biggest cities such as New York and Dubai, but realized that she was out of alignment.

Yesterday in my office my toddler was messing around and pulled out a notebook.

I picked it up, pages all crumbled because she was messing with it.

This was the page it was on, dated October 5th, 2021.

It was having a big moment of fear, doubt and insecurity and I decided to write it down so I would remember it.

Last year I had a successful second launch of my LinkedIn course in Feb which ended later March.

I didn't launch it again right away, and the months dragged on and I felt resistance to doing it again.

That resistance told me that I needed to because there were lessons I still needed to learn.

The third launch is usually the magic number, so I finally got around to it in October.

The first day I launched was absolutely crickets, no sales and this is where the self doubt came on so strong.

I remember wanting to just shrink back and quit this whole journey.

That was my ego talking and it was afraid of...

Did you know your Subconscious Mind is responsible for 99.99 Percent of the information that is processed in your brain?

Today on Mindset Hackers we are going to dive into how the subconscious is keeping you on autopilot for so many things that you don't realize, and most of the time it's holding you back instead of moving you forward.

What if you could flip the switch and re-wire your subconscious mind to work FOR you instead of against you?

Don't believe me that its holding you back? In this episode I dive into a couple of minor examples of how the subconscious mind has held me back but the reality is it's affecting us far more than we realize.

The truth is our mind is wired to keep us alive, to keep us safe, and our modern world the dangers aren't the same as when we were living in the prehistoric times where we had to live in scarcity and in a tribe.

I'll share 5 tips that I personally use to re-program my subconscious to align myself with success.

Don't get me wrong, I do the...

Listen to this short 3 minute guided meditation with affirmations each morning for 30 days, as early as possible when you are just waking up and your mind is in a 'theta state', the in between and lucid state between the dream world and being awake to program your subconscious.

You can also listen to as a primer before you start your work day, while you are stretching or about to work out.

I use these very affirmations to program my subconscious mind and will be bringing you various guided affirmations each week in between my normal podcasts.

This episode of Mindset Hackers contains the following affirmations on abundance:

I have and abundant mindset.

I am grateful for everything I have in my life.

I cherish the abundance of happiness that each day brings.

I openly share the abundance that I recieve.

Life is full of potential to create abundance.

Today I will be prosperous and manifest abundance in my life.

Abundance in this universe is unlimited and I will harness the power to...

How do I do it? 
In the most recent episode of the Mindset Hackers podcast...

In this episode of Mindset Hackers, my good friend Halie Avolio and I talk about imposter syndrome and the many ways it can show up, and how to start blazing your own trail and not doing things based on the expectations of others.

Imposter syndrome is usually the feeling of:

I'm not worthy
"Who am I to"
What if they find out I'm a fraud?
They have so much more experience than I do

But Hallie explains that Imposter Syndrome isn't just not having the 'skillset' of someone who is further along the path that you, but it can also be not living in alignment with your true self, therefore giving you this feeling of not being worthy.

Bronnie Ware, in her book "The 5 Regrets Of The Dying" she talks about the number 1 regret of the dying is: I wish I had lived a life true to myself.

Hallie goes deep into how living a life that aligns with our CORE values, it puts us back into alignment and recommends journaling every day and writing down what YOUR core values are.

Hallie also challenges you to...

On Mindset Hackers I will give you the 5 step formula for crushing your biggest goals and how to stay on top of them through the entire year.

It's the 3rd week of January and its the time where most people start letting off the gas on their goals. They say that 92% of people fail at their new years resolution, yet we hear all about S.M.A.R.T goals in the corporate world.

SMART Goals are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time Bound.

What is attainable? Everything! What is realistic? Codeword for 'I don't want you to fail so be realistic'.

Ultra-athlete, best selling author and former Navy Seal David Goggins knows all about the breaking through what we think is 'realistic'.

In his mind, he calls this the 'governor', like the device that is on a sports car that limits how fast it can go. A Porsche could go 190 without a governor, but at 135 miles per hour its cuts off the gas and prevents it from going that fast.

According to David Goggins, when we start to want to tap...

In this episode of Mindset Hackers I detail how I start the my day and create enough momentum to destroy any obstacle that comes in my path, and that would also include the limiting beliefs that (could) hold me back.

I'll share with you the 4 mantras/affirmations that I say to my self several hundreds of times during the year.

I say these over and over, as I take a cold shower every morning, because I am reprogramming my mind to be able to figure out anything. How to be more mentally tough. How to be more resourceful. How to keep going.

The book that I recommend in this episode is "Mindset" by Carol Dweck where she coined the term 'Growth Mindset' and 'Fixed Mindset'. This is an excellent read and one that I find more and more value in the traits of how highly successful people look at things like learning, failure, adaptability and ego.

Start using these 4 mantras and do them every day like I do and you'll start to program yourself with the traits of a growth mindset and be able to...

Did you know that the failure rate of New Years Goals is about 92%?

What is it about the 8% that actually do hit their big hairy and audacious goals?

In this episode of Mindset Hackers, my mindset twinner Hallie Avolio and I jump into why people fail at their goals and what to do to set your year off in the right way.

Hallie shares her 4 step process on setting intentions for the year.

We also dive into the concept of embodiment, the ‘feeling’ of what it is that you want to experience, and why it’s so important to use the feeling to precede the actual experience.

As Dr. Joe Dispenza says, the pathway to manifestation is to use intention to cast a line out into the quantum field and the elevated emotion is what reels it back in to create the actual experience.

This is YOUR year my friends, don’t let it be like every single other year where you set a goal, then forget about it after week number 3 or let it sit written down on a piece of paper and then stuffed...
