Living Lucky® Podcast with Jason and Jana Banana

We are on this earth to love and be loved. Start with yourself.  We are too often ready to help others and lend a hand, but very slow to ask for or accept help. When you look in the mirror, do you see your favorite features first or do you see what you want to change?  Start looking for what you love.  Love more. Loving yourself is very empowering.  Learn to love yourself. Learn to accept help.  L...

If you are looking for answers, you need to start with the questions.  Every answer is just waiting for the right questions to be asked.  This is one of the reasons we absolutely LOVE working with our clients and why they have such transformations.

Productivity Tip from one of Jason's coaches, Jason Golderg.  If you want to be super productive, pretend you are filming a TV show about who you are as your Optimal Self, the cameras are rolling from the moment your wake-up bell goes off in the morning and they are ALWAYS ON you.  Jason's book, Prison Break   is a great read and resource. If you can get in this mindset, your optimal sel...

If you think you don't have 10 minutes to give yourself in the morning, your life is more out of control than think and will improve more than you can imagine in your current state of mind.

The fact is, we have triggers.  Some of us don't even recognize our triggers and that is why the Spin Positive Tool is so important. 1.  Take a breath and Be aware of the feeling when it hits, feel it, address it and see what it is telling you. 2.  Be grateful for the feeling because it is just an indicator of you thoughts and beliefs.  3. Take the lessons from it and decide what your next be...

Thanks for the song "Same God" for making Jason tear up ever time it gets to the line "I may not face Goliath, but I've got my own giants!"

Do you ever wonder why you are working so hard and not getting anywhere? Dr. Wayne Dyer says that wherever we are in life, at some point in our past we made an appointment with ourselves to be there.  When we take the time to look back over our own linear histories, it is easy to see how the "Life Process"  has unfolded to deliver us into the Present.  We can see our footsteps in the san...

Today we look at the fun situation of "He said, She heard.  She said, He heard."  Do you ever wonder if you and your spouse, or partner,  are even having the same conversation?

In survival mode, your brain, wants to keep you protected.  It...
