Description

About Ana Melikian: Ana is an optimist who had to overcome two bouts with cancer to learn that pursuing happiness is a fallacy and that choosing happiness is a much more powerful strategy to tap into your highest potential. Either by working with leaders and their teams or other coaches and consultants, Ana supports her clients to break through their mindset limitations and upgrade their psychological operating system so that they achieve better results than ever in work, in life, enjoying the process all throughout. She's the host of the Mindset Zone Podcast which has been selected for Huffington Post's "15 Podcasts That Will Leave You Pondering Life's Big Questions".    In this episode, Jordan and Ana  discuss:

• From pursuit to choice 
• Confronting your critical voice 
• How the Navy SEALs Ethos relates to executive Leadership 
• Ana's interview with the grandson of Holocaust survorViktor Frankl

• Your internal critic/bully often has your best interest at heart. However-it may not be correct in its beliefs and judgements.
• Forcing yourself to be happy is the best way to be miserable. Rather, focus on knowing and achieving your purpose.
• Choosing happiness requires changes in your Thinking-Feelings-Behaviors. Not just thinking and mindset.
• Making a positive impact and leaving a positive legacy is the key. 
• Switching the language and intention of choosing happiness instead of pursuing it is very empowering. It emphasizes your power to choose. 

"Happiness doesn't need to be a goal; it can be a way of being." —  Ana Melikian
