Most people live exhausted, drained by fear of the future, distracted by noise, and buried under responsibilities that were never theirs to carry. In this episode of The 20 Minute Freedom Project, Josh Lopez dismantles one of the biggest lies keeping people stuck: the belief that everything is your responsibility. Using Stephen Covey’s circles and real stories from his own life, Josh shows you how to shift from overwhelm to ownership.
You’ll learn the difference between the Circle of Concern, the Circle of Influence, and the Circle of Control, and why almost everyone wastes their life in the wrong circle. Josh shares the moment that punched him in the mouth spiritually, the clarity that followed, and the simple exercise that instantly reduced his stress and reignited his creativity.
You’ll also discover the 3 traps that keep people stuck (overthinking the future, trying to control others, and mistaking worry for productivity), plus a four-step “Freedom Filter” you can apply today.
Notable quote: “You are not built to carry the weight of the world. You are built to carry the weight of your assignment.”
Actionable, raw, and practical. This episode delivers a mindset shift you’ll feel immediately.
