  Ep 191: Motivation vs. Contentment

  Sep 22, 202628 minS1

  What’s the driving force for your motivation? What’s your relationship to contentment? And what’s the relationship between motivation and contentment for you? Without deep and honest reflection, we will default to our automatic ways of being, which are generally driven by fear. As we know, a life generally driven by fear impacts health and relationships in an unsustainable way.  What’s the driving force of motivation? I want to be motivated by love and inspiration Being intentional with motivational tactics Can I be at peace while striving, growing, and wanting different things? Where is the line between truly being content and wanting to grow? If we just focus on results, we’ll never be content Going deeper with contentment of life purpose Battle between desire and realistic expectations Going deeper within vs. tactically looking outward for motivation ------------------------- CONNECT WITH JEFF: Website: https://jeffmillercoaching.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffmillercoaching/ IG: @jeffmillercoaching FB: https://www.facebook.com/jeff.miller.7965 Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/jeffmillercoaching CONNECT WITH TATSU: Website: https://tatsuyafushimi.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatsuyafushimi/ IG: @tatsuyafushimi FB: https://www.facebook.com/tatsuya.fushimi.9/ Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/tatsuyafushimi

  Ep 190: Self-Worth Is A Journey Into The Heart

  Sep 15, 202628 min

  Self-worth and self-esteem are not interchangeable. Many people are unaware of the distinction, which causes a lot of confusion and misunderstanding internally and with others. Much of Western society fosters an attachment to self-esteem rather than cultivates a strong foundation of self-worth. With constant advertising, marketing, and propaganda everywhere, we are at a major disadvantage in cultivating true self-worth. Cultivating self-worth is a lifelong journey for those willing and courageous enough to explore the depths of the heart. Self-worth vs. self-esteem What’s actually driving your chase for more? Advertising and marketing target insecurities and lack Western culture teaches your self-worth is your bank account The ego’s constant adaptation Shifting towards deeper self-worth Self-worth is a journey deep into your heart ------------------------- CONNECT WITH JEFF: Website: https://jeffmillercoaching.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffmillercoaching/ IG: @jeffmillercoaching FB: https://www.facebook.com/jeff.miller.7965 Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/jeffmillercoaching CONNECT WITH TATSU: Website: https://tatsuyafushimi.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatsuyafushimi/ IG: @tatsuyafushimi FB: https://www.facebook.com/tatsuya.fushimi.9/ Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/tatsuyafushimi

  Ep 189: O.F.G. September

  Sep 8, 202622 minS1

  O.F.G. means opportunities for growth. Every situation we experience presents a seemingly infinite number of growth opportunities towards becoming the highest version of ourselves. However, it is up to us to train our minds to identify the opportunities and to integrate our hearts in the process. In this series of episodes, Jeff and Tatsu share their thought processes and struggles when triggered by people and events in their lives. Noticing a familiar energetic pull back towards consistent reading Self-judgment from “falling off” a good habit Moving with the flow of life strengthened faith in self Watching my 8-year-old son get blind sided for the first time in football Responding vs. reacting Initial thought and feeling when son got blind sided ------------------------- CONNECT WITH JEFF: Website: https://jeffmillercoaching.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffmillercoaching/ IG: @jeffmillercoaching FB: https://www.facebook.com/jeff.miller.7965 Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/jeffmillercoaching CONNECT WITH TATSU: Website: https://tatsuyafushimi.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatsuyafushimi/ IG: @tatsuyafushimi FB: https://www.facebook.com/tatsuya.fushimi.9/ Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/tatsuyafushimi

  Episode #188

  Ep 188: Chasing Security Is Counterintuitive

  Sep 1, 202628 minS1

  Why do we chase the idea of security? Where does the belief in a lack of security come from? Are we addressing the root consciously or the symptoms unconsciously? In our need for security, we dance the fine line between control and responsibility. Oftentimes, we try to over-control and mask it as responsibility. Whether the security we want is financial, health-related, or in relationships, ultimately, we want peace of mind. And peace of mind begins and ends with full acceptance of who we are. Is security a facade we are chasing? We’re all chasing peace of mind Reinforcing the belief that I’m not secure People are so used to using fear as the fuel We think that control creates security Being secure with who you are and how you operate The fear of not being financially secure is easily exploited ------------------------- CONNECT WITH JEFF: Website: https://jeffmillercoaching.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffmillercoaching/ IG: @jeffmillercoaching FB: https://www.facebook.com/jeff.miller.7965 Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/jeffmillercoaching CONNECT WITH TATSU: Website: https://tatsuyafushimi.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatsuyafushimi/ IG: @tatsuyafushimi FB: https://www.facebook.com/tatsuya.fushimi.9/ Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/tatsuyafushimi

  Ep 187: Nostalgia Is A Gateway To Transformation

  Aug 25, 202628 minS1

  What are you nostalgic about? Is nostalgia simply a remembrance of the past? Maybe it is pointing to something missing in your current life. Are you living in a way that your future self will deem nostalgic? Are you feeling deeply every day? Deep emotions make memories nostalgic. Your nostalgic memories can be an access point to life transformation. Identifying the emotional value you received apart from the nostalgic events themselves can be life-changing.  Nostalgia is a bittersweet emotional state Is nostalgia a clue to glean something from the past? Can we purposely create nostalgia for the future? Spontaneous and ego-created nostalgia Curiosity around seemingly random memories Maybe there are feelings I want to create now for future nostalgia Cynicism stunts energy that fosters nostalgic experiences ------------------------- CONNECT WITH JEFF: Website: https://jeffmillercoaching.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffmillercoaching/ IG: @jeffmillercoaching FB: https://www.facebook.com/jeff.miller.7965 Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/jeffmillercoaching CONNECT WITH TATSU: Website: https://tatsuyafushimi.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tatsuyafushimi/ IG: @tatsuyafushimi FB: https://www.facebook.com/tatsuya.fushimi.9/ Books: https://www.amazon.com/author/tatsuyafushimi
