Don’t Buy Into The “New Normal” The Jason Goldberg is Ruining Podcasting Podcast
-
- Self-Improvement
In this week’s episode, Jason creates and shares with the audience some great ways to deal with “the new normal”. The new normal (and the new abnormal as Jason points out) can be hard on people that already deal with issues such as sadness, depression and anxiety. Setting your mindset right is a #1 priority in this case.
“My belief is that, for most sane people, having the choice, you would never choose to be stressed or anxious or fearful. So if that’s the case, why don’t we just choose to be happy? Or joyful? Or peaceful? In these kinds of less than ideal situations?” – Jason Goldberg
Additionally, Jason highlights 3 quick ways to shift your mentality when you catch yourself fighting internal battles. If you knew that your current sadness and bad mood would only last for a specific period of time, would you still choose not to be gentle with yourself?
“We never truly know how anything is going to unfold in our lives. You are a pro at living in ambiguity and uncertainty because those are the basic building blocks of life and growth and creation and evolution.” – Jason Goldberg

About Jason Goldberg
What does an award-winning entrepreneur, a TEDx Speaker, a bacon-atarian (thats a vegetarian who still eats bacon), a funky sock lover, a former rapper (who opened for the Wu-Tang Clan - YES, really!) and a previously 332lb man (who has since lost over 130lbs despite his affinity for bacon) have in common?
They are all the same guy!
Jason “JG” Goldberg (so we’re really doing third person here huh?) is an international “Edutainer”, author of the #1 International Best-Seller “Prison Break” and creator of the Playful Prosperity AND Competition-Proof Business Immersion programs.
He has been a featured expert on media outlets including ABC, CBS, and FOX as well as teaching on the Mindvalley and SoulPancake platforms and creating a business in partnership with NASA and the space shuttle program while earning his MBA.
Now JG focuses on blending his signature mix of simple and transformational wisdom, practical business mentorship, and belly-busting humor to help coaches, speakers and online educators build “Competition-PROOF” businesses full of impact and influence (and have a ton of FUN in the process)!
As a sought-after international speaker and host, JG has shared the stage with some of the world’s greatest thought-leaders and innovators in human potential and performance including Jason Silva (Host of Nat Geo’s “Brain Games”), Dr. Sean Stephenson (The 3 Foot Giant), Don Miguel Ruiz (The Four Agreements), Vishen Lakhiani (CEO of Mindvalley), Steven Kotler (Stealing Fire), Marisa Peer (the UK’s psychotherapist to the stars) and so many others that he hopes will impress you if these other ones don’t! ;)
