The Jason Wright Show

This is always so much fun for me. I love having the girls home for the holidays. In this episode like the others they’ve been on we just riff, recall favorite holiday movies and put Rylan’s boyfriend in the hot seat. It was a blast. I love you girls. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Sabina Nawaz is a leader. So much so that Sabina Nawaz coaches leaders. There are so many times I pinch myself for the amazing guests I get to visit with on the Jason Wright Show. This was one of those times. Enjoy this conversation with a remarkable human being. Coaching is not just about the skill and experience of a coach but the chemistry between the coach and the client. Here’s some inf...

Goals are great. I love goals. I have goals. However, goals don’t change your life. Behaviors and habits change your life. If you were to say to me you had a goal to lose 20 lbs. there is nothing you could do to lose the 20 lbs right here and now. However, you could go for a walk right now and proceed to go for a post dinner walk every night. One is an aspiration. The other is a behavior. Th...

So this guy keeps coming up in my feed on YouTube. He’s funny. He offers quick, sharp political commentary with a conservative slant. Comedy, conservative and comedian are not three things you see a lot. Wes Austin has found a way to satisfy is creative outlet in a funny and engaging way. I admire anyone willing to step out and nurture their passions, and Wes is doing just that. I also admir...

We are living in strange times. One of the biggest misconceptions of Christianity is it’s something once you decide to adopt then you must adhere to some hard and fast set of rules. This is something many refer to as ‘religiosity’ or ‘legalism.’ In this conversation with my Pastor Daniel Turner we riff on sin, the love of God and what the life of the Christian looks l...

I’ve often said when I turned 40 my ‘I don’t give a sh** meter went way up. It wasn’t a cognitive thing. It required no effort. Something just organically happened. I’m not sure what, but it did. Now I’m 47 and I realize I might have had it wrong. I didn’t increase my list of things I don’t care about. I just became more acutely aware of the things I do care about. It’s funny. When you focus inten...

I’m. a lucky guy. The Jason Wright show gives me the opportunity to meet truly special people and make lifelong friends. That’s the case here with my interview with Greg Cagle. Greg is a leader’s leader. He has been up. He’s been down and he’s learned from his entire journey. His ability to learn from past tragedy and apply it his ongoing success has made him one of t...

The Jason Wright Show Monday Mission While we might be good multi-taskers this does not mean the multiple tasks will be exceptionally performed. Further, it means we are diluting our energy as well as our effectiveness. So often people get obsessed with managing time. By this they mean getting as much done in the time they have. This is wrong-headed. We should instead be focused on managing energy...

Happy Friday! In this BFE I discuss Tom Brady’s marriage is not improving always in ALL ways. Elon Musk proves to his millennial Twitts that reality eventually smacks you in the face. Ryan Reynolds shows what it means to be a cool, decent celebrity in a an era of mostly jackass, self loving narcissists. Happy Friday!

Matt Kaeberlien is one of the leading researchers on the science of aging. I was beyond honored to have him on the show to discuss this now almost clieche question: “Is aging a disease?” Although the FDA and other health professionals don’t want to categorizes it as such, aging has many of the similarities of a disease. This being the case we can, if willing, combat aging in a pr...

There is a power to asking ourselves questions instead of always giving our brain answers like, “You got this. You’re a badass. You’re a winner. You’re good enough, smart enough and doggonit people like you.” Instead ask yourself, “How will you fix this? What makes you a badass? What is the solution to this problem?” The simple fact is the brain loves ques...

It’s 2:30 a.m. All of the sudden it happens. The damn smoke alarm is chirping. Why? Is it a dead battery? Is it some sort of special alarm reserved for Zombie attacks? What is going on? Then in starts. You try to make it stop. You press the little protruding button on the outside. Nothing. The chirp continues. Then you try to dial in your code on the alarm pad. Nothing. Still chirp…&#8...

The Resurrected, Conquering Jesus In the fifth and final installment of his bestselling  Jesus  series, David Limbaugh digs into the New Testament epistles with passion and imagination, showing that the testimony of Jesus’ earliest followers provides irrefutable proof of His resurrection.

Sr. Aide to Henry Kissinger, Winston Lord was asked to prepare a speech for Kissinger. Upon completion he handed it to his boss. Contacting his boss a little later for feedback Kissinger replies, “Are you sure this is the best you can do? Lord replies “Henry, I thought so, but I’ll try again.” Lord then goes back to the drawing board, tweaks, revises and resubmits another a draft a few days...

Each of us face obstacles and struggles. Each of us have been given a life and mind to determine what to make of it. In this chapter Giovanni must begin to decide to whom does the stone and more importantly his life ultimately belong? As Viktor Frankl said, “If one can’t change their circumstances, one must change themself.”

So that has proven to be one of the dumbest most backward things I have ever said in my life. It turns out not only is marriage the best thing that has ever happened to me, it is good for others as well. Married couples live longer, have less strokes and are happier on the whole than those who are not. There is also many other ancillary benefits to marriage. However, with the redefinition of..well...

We’ve all made them-the proverbial Ben Franklin pros vs. cons list. However, these really aren’t all that effective. The reason is because they tend to be clouded by our self fulfilling prophecies. We want what we want, and as a result we tend to not be very objective when making these lists. We will ‘yea but’ a con off the list because of our inside information. We know we...

So my boy Josh Tomlin stopped in today to discuss what’s going on with the boys of October. We also covered such topics as the proper etiquette when shaking hands and the value of a well executed bro hug. As always the conversation was fun, lively and complete with stupidity. Just like Josh and I. Enjoy the show! #MLB #JoshTomlin #BroHug

Many studies have explored the association between gratitude and depression, but no meta-analysis has been reported. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to fill that gap. The meta-analysis synthesized the association in 70 reported effect sizes from 62 published and unpublished articles, involving a total of 26,427 child, adolescent, and adult participants. The studies were completed by differen...

I’ve mentioned before ‘The Stone Chiseler’ was inspired by Viktor Frankl’s ‘Man’s Search for Meaning.’ One of my favorite quotes of Frankl’s is “Between action and reaction is space.” We all have a choice to determine how we react in any circumstance. Granted sometimes it is much harder than others. However, if we can master this ‘s...

I am a recovering fixed mindset sufferer. For years I was so much more worried about performance and how others perceived me I let it limit jobs I took, opportunities I pursued you name it. I was so worried that if I failed at something, it would mean I was a failure and that’s how others would see me. However, since adopting a growth mindset much of that has changed. I now attempt things th...
