Achieve Your Goals with Hal Elrod

Last week, my good friend Mike Dillard sent out an email where he analyzed the tumultuous events happening across the world right now. As war broke out between Russia and Ukraine, he wrote powerfully about how we got here, the breakdown of our supply chains, and he shared 10 Ways We Can Prepare for What's Coming . Today, I'm reading Mike's email, from top to bottom, and sharing my commentary along...

Do you ever struggle with your significant other, or with any of the other important relationships in your life (family, friends, co-workers, etc.)? Today's episode is designed to empower you from the perspective that it only takes ONE person to transform a relationship,  a concept that I first learned from Stacey & Paul Martino, co-authors of The Miracle Morning for Transforming Your Relationship...

Are you familiar with Daybreaker ? Seven years ago, my friend Brianna Greenspan asked me if I was familiar with it (which I wasn't). She said, "It's amazing! It's like a LIVE Miracle Morning!" and she described it as a 3-hour experiential event that combines a high energy dance party with meditation, yoga, affirmations, and more. Needless to say, I was intrigued! :^) So, I reached out to the found...

Right now, the collective consciousness of humanity is facing major challenges. As a society, many of us struggle with our fears of the future and the unknown, as well as our tendencies to judge other people, and people are divided. To make matters worse, our media and our government perpetuate these divisions, which engenders and intensifies conflict among us. This is what makes the Miracle Morni...

While we may not all openly identify as "addicts," we are all in some way addicted to something that is detrimental to us in ways that we often don't recognize. It could be drugs, food, social media, work habits, exercise, yelling, destructive thought patterns, or something else. Whatever it is, we are all prone to becoming addicted to things that don't serve us.   This has never been more true th...

I mentioned this in an email I sent you on Monday (Subject Line: Your Community Needs YOU Now More Than Ever), and today I'm delivering a podcast to you on this topic. As a society and as human beings, we're facing unprecedented challenges. Like never before, people are disconnected, lonely, divided, and prone to conflict. In this moment, however, we have the power to step up and lead our communit...

Through social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, we have the opportunity to share ideas, help one another, and give each other inspiration like never before. In this episode–a social media mashup of sorts–I'm excited to expand upon some of the best advice from my most recent social posts. The topics I talk about today were picked based on the posts that got the most engagement...

I used to listen to music just for the sound. If I loved the beat, someone's voice, or a rhythm, that's all I needed. But over the last five years, I've started to care just as much about lyrics as the melodies—and it's made me much more grateful for the powerful messaging in conscious music. My guest today is Rob Riccardo, who is literally one of my favorite musicians of all time! His lyrics upli...

A mentor of mine once told me, "Set your life to consistent rhythms—it's the only way to freedom." Once you've set your goals, how do you set yourself up with consistent rhythms to achieve them? What are the rituals and routines that will enable you to succeed, and how do you schedule them into your day? Last week, we talked about living life in a rhythm of 30-day challenges to consistently improv...

Is there any aspect of your life that you'd like to improve, transform, and take to the next level within the next month? I've become a big fan of 30-day challenges, as they've helped me up-level my life in all kinds of different areas, including parenting, marriage, health, spirituality, finances, business, and more. Each month I intentionally choose one area of my life that I want to take to the...

I don't know about you, but I'm much more effective when I keep things simple (and easy to remember). :^) In 2022, I'm using a 3-letter strategy to guide me. These three letters are something I can remember every day and serve as my North Star to handle any challenges I'm faced with and continue making progress toward my most important goals. Like the S.A.V.E.R.S, these three letters are easy to r...

Today, we continue with part 3 of our 4-part series on making 2022 your best year ever. If you haven't heard Part 1 or Part 2 , I definitely recommend that you go back and listen. In today's episode, I introduce you to what I call "inverted goals." Unlike a traditional goal which focuses on a predetermined outcome (e.g., I want to lose 10lbs), an inverted goal focuses on a predetermined process (e...

Last week, I shared "An Unconventional Way to Make 2022 Your Best Year Ever" and the premise of that episode was to measure your Best Year through a new paradigm, and that paradigm was based on the one thing you have complete control of:  How you show up everyday . We broke that into two aspects: Your MINDSET and your BEHAVIORS. Today's episode is about "Getting Your Mind Right" or more formally "...

Today's podcast is the first in a 4-part series, each designed to set you up to do everything in your power to make 2022 your best year yet. We're beginning the series with an encore presentation of one of the highest rated episodes that I recorded for you last year, which will give you an "Unconventional Approach to Make This Your Best Year Yet" and set the stage for the next three episodes. As w...

How do you go from doing work that makes you money to doing work that fulfills you—and could even be called your dream job? To help you answer this question I'm speaking with Ken Coleman. Ken is a career expert, as well as the host of The Ken Coleman Show, where he helps people discover not just what they were born to do, but how to turn their dream career into a reality. He explores this even fur...

What was the first personal development book you ever read? How did it impact you? For me, it was How to Win Friends & Influence People when I was 19 years old. It introduced me to the concepts of personal growth and personal development. It kickstarted my first career and was the catalyst for my decision to dedicate myself to lifelong personal development. My friend, Brian Johnson, embodies this...

We are all carrying some level of guilt, shame, or regret. We've all done things that aren't in alignment with our values, or that we'd do differently now if given the opportunity. We also carry some degree of hurt, anger, or resentment toward people who we believe wronged us. What would life be like to live completely free from ALL this emotional turmoil? How can we release ourselves from the wei...

I know this is a departure from topics I normally address on the podcast, but I hope you'll listen and take this episode seriously, as well as read this email for more details and resources. I took the time to record this for you from a place of moral obligation.  I don't know if you're aware, but we are experiencing a severe, unprecedented global supply chain crisis, and I've been researching and...

Today, I'm excited to introduce you to the authors of one of my all-time favorite books, Mathew Micheletti and Ashley Cottrell. Known worldwide as "The Yoga Couple" to their 500,000+ followers, they're also the authors of a book that I haven't stopped recommending since I read it: The Inner Work: An Invitation to True Freedom and Lasting Happiness.   Their book astounded me. It's one of the best b...

Today, I'm bringing you a conversation with my dear friends, Mike & Lindsay McCarthy, who are also the co-authors for the two newest Miracle Morning books:   The first is the Updated & Expanded 2nd edition of The Miracle Morning for Parents & Families ( available on Amazon ) .  And the second...  Is the brand new Miracle Morning for Parents & Families PLAYBOOK ( also available on Amazon ) which gi...

What would you do if you had no responsibilities? If you could get rid of your job, all of your bills, and not have to answer to anyone—how would you spend your days? My friend and filmmaker, Nick Conedera (director of The Miracle Morning Movie ) decided to answer that question for himself. He burned his possessions (literally), got rid of everything he owned, and spent three (3) years living in a...

Have you noticed how divided we have become as a society? The media is constantly pushing narratives that categorize people into groups, fostering animosity and even hate towards those who have different beliefs and opinions than we do.  When we focus on our differences, we feel disconnected from one another. It not only hurts us as individuals, but collectively as a society. When we choose to see...

As individuals, it is our ability to live in alignment with our values that determines our level of fulfillment. No matter what you value — health, family, freedom, safety, contribution etc. — when your thoughts, words, and actions are in alignment with what you value most, you are living a fulfilled life.  But are their shared values that matter most for ALL of us? That's ultimately up to you to...

Is it possible to live your life completely free from fear? Today, I propose that it is and explain how you can do it. In a previous episode on this topic (Episode #355: Freedom From Your Fears ), I talked about the differences between unconscious and conscious fears, why we are the ones who create nearly all of the fear we experience, and why it might not be possible to be fearless, but we can fe...

Every day, we're faced with the reality that humanity is divided right now, possibly more than ever. I'm seeing people be outright hateful to each other, in ways I've simply never seen before. Even wishing harm upon others has become all too common. I fear that humanity is losing the shared values that are necessary for us to sustain peace and unity.  If you and I aren't the change we want to see...
