Ep. 86 - Leaning on your Future The Art of Winning
-
- Entrepreneurship
In today's The Art of Winning episode, our host Ashton Levarek explores the concept of living in the past or the future and how it affects our lives. He discusses how our current version of ourselves is based on interpretations of memories - and how living in the past can limit our potential. Ashton will explain how high performers and successful people tend to look toward their ideal selves in the future while being careful not to project fear into it. He also explores the Buddhist way of thinking - to be present at the moment - and why leaning into the future is still suggested for those trying to achieve goals and dreams. He will talk about bringing intention into the present moment before starting any new task - so that you can move forward with clarity and purpose, becoming successful in many aspects of life, such as health, wealth, happiness, and relationships.

[00:00 - 07:31] Why We Take Direction in Life From the Past
· Our current version of ourselves is the culmination of all our experiences and everything we've done up to this point in life.
· We often take cues from past experiences, even though they don't exist in reality.
· High performers and successful people live in the future, looking at their ideal version of themselves in 1, 3, 5, and 10 years.
· Buddhist way of thinking suggests being in the present moment.
· For those trying to build a business, get into better shape, or meet the love of their life, leaning into the future is key.
[07:31 - 15:18] Intentionally Creating Your Best Version of Yourself
· Relying on the past or envisioning the future is not productive
· A friend of mine wrote a book about becoming a millionaire by picking up dog poop
· He kept rolling over profits and going bigger and bigger every time
· Leaning into your capabilities rather than your past
· Being intentional with relationships, health, wealth, and happiness
· Take 60 seconds to pause before starting any new thing
