Have you ever looked in the mirror and been disappointed with who’s looking back, or even worse, horrified by who you’ve become? After awakening in his bathtub, practically dead and not sure how to face another day, Jesse decided he didn’t want to die - he wanted to live differently. From that moment on, he decided to figure out how to do just that, live differently - and to become the person who utilizes his potential instead of continuously squandering it. In 2017, after two decades of battling addiction, Jesse embarked on a life-altering path toward long-term addiction recovery.

Prioritizing what you want most over what you want now

Ep #284: Okay, this episode is totally Jesse-isms and pumping you up. From inspirational propaganda to my many voices to diatribes - if you love it when I get all Jesse and excite you, this episode is for you!

I will also delve into the idea that easy decisions often lead to a challenging life, while tough choices can afford us our best future. I toss in the 'crab bucket' phenomenon, where individuals can be pulled down by their environment when attempting to change. We also contrast the temptation of immediate pleasures, like donuts and pizza, with the long-term health benefits of choosing broccoli and fish - metaphorically, because I am not against sugar, I LOVE SUGAR. Throughout the episode, I'll highlight how often people lose sight of their ultimate goals by getting caught up in the moment instead of emphasizing the importance of viewing actions as stepping stones toward a desired outcome. I'll also explore the progression from curiosity to interest, then passion, and finally purpose, underscoring the significance of understanding the deeper 'why' behind our actions. I will encourage you in this episode, that is for sure. What you choose to do from there is all up to you and your willingness to reflect on your life choices and the impacts of those choices on your future.

Thank you to Chicago, Sacramento, my two Floridas, L.A., Detroit, Asheville, and the Tribe for being such a blessing in my life!

Just hit play, and let's dive in with open minds and hearts—you are in the right place, at the right time—right now.
