On this Episode of Progress Always, Aaron Morrison—“the Mindset Mechanic”—joins me to unpack the shift from blue-collar leadership to inner leadership: taking radical responsibility, rewiring beliefs, and building discipline that actually sticks. We dive into escaping the “scale or bail” trap, communicating about emotions (not from them), and turning confirmation bias into your ally.
Key takeaways
1) Ownership Over Externalizing: transformation starts when you become “at cause” for your results.
2) Discipline that lasts: anchor lessons so you don’t backslide into the old identity.
3) Communicate about emotion, not from it—message intended = message received.
4) Flip confirmation bias: hunt evidence you are worthy, capable, and ready—daily.
5) Two-Minute Reset: simple nervous-system downshift to get back to calm and clear.
Quotes
“We’re not always at fault for our circumstances—but we are responsible for our outcomes.”
“Labels are limitations; outcome beats ego.”
“It’s not the miss that breaks you—it’s the fixation on missing.”
“Affirmations feel silly until they feel true—say them as if now.”
“The most powerful force is staying consistent with who you believe you are.”
