The people you surround yourself with massively influence you. Consider how much easier it is to accomplish a goal when you have a support system cheering you on. Or unfortunately, how easy it is to let go of a dream when everyone around you is telling you to forget about it.

So how does this positive support system work?

What can you accomplish when you have one?

And what should you be looking for when you’re looking for people to be a part of your inner circle?

Jason Wojo and Polish Peter are answering these questions and more today! They’ve both experienced what it’s like to have your life transformed by an empowering inner circle, and they’re sharing their insight so you can have high-level people walking alongside you as well.

Are you your best self after you spend all day overworked in your job or business? Most of us would agree that we aren’t, yet for many of us, our life outside of work is the sacrifice we make to achieve what we consider “success”....But what is it all for anyway? Are we really “successful” when we do this?

This week, Mark Dolfini goes over TONS of common perspectives that small business owners have that aren’t actually getting them where they want to go in life. This includes fixating on a number of doors (usually a high number), prioritizing the business at the expense of everything else, looking only at the numbers to make decisions (and not considering the emotional effects or the sacrifices) and so much more. Mark, like us at Lifeonaire, believes that the solution to these problems is to have a personal Vision to guide you. With one, you get to set up your job or business so that it works FOR YOU.

And listen, we know we harp on this Vision thing a lot, but it’s because we believe in it so much. We KNOW they work. So what are you waiting for? Listen in, and get ready to put your Vision to paper today!

We’ve all seen it in ourselves and others: our New Year's Resolutions fizzling out by March. 

What if this year, instead of doing a New Years Resolution the way everyone else does them, you wrote your Vision?

A Vision is a detailed picture of what you want your life to look like (and yes, it includes even your wildest dreams that you think you could never possibly achieve). Now, this may sound A LOT like just a detailed set of New Year's Resolutions, but there are a few essential differences that cause people with visions to actually achieve the lives they desire, and unfortunately cause a large number of people with resolutions to run out of steam.

So, do you want to make 2022 the year where you accomplish what you desire? Listen in to learn how to make that happen!

“Savage Gentleman” may sound oxymoronic. But in fact, Josh Tyler believes that developing these two contradictory sides of ourselves can help us be capable, strong, well-rounded people.

Perhaps you’ve got a great job and family, but you feel like something’s missing. Maybe the convenience of the modern world has caused you to lose touch with your adventurous ambitions. Or maybe you engage with your primal side, but it seems that there’s no place for ruggedness and sophistication to come together in one person.

In this episode —one Wojo refers to as one of his all-time favorites —the guys dive into how you can cultivate both of these sides of yourself so you can be truly capable of anything. Listen in to discover how you can tap into the best version of yourself, your Savage Gentleman!

Anxiety is a common roadblock that limits many people from having the life they want. When Jodi Howe, of The Air That I Breathe podcast, realized how much anxiety was running her life, she started taking back ownership one step at a time, and she’s here to share how!

Jodi, Wojo, and Peter discussed TONS of thought provoking questions that many of us have about how anxiety works and ultimately how to overcome it. They covered:

• What does a partnership with God to manage anxiety look like? (hint, it’s not simply praying anxiety away)
• What do triggers do to our minds, and what happens when we surround ourselves with positive things?
• How do we know when it’s time to challenge our fears versus knowing our limits?
• How do we determine if our anxiety is coming from trying to have too much or too little control?

So if you feel like fear gets in your way, don’t go anywhere. Get ready to reduce toxicity in your life and start seeing some powerful changes!

We have a special episode for you today! In this legacy episode, Lifeonaire founder Steve Cook interviewed Dan Alborn, and he shared his incredible story about quitting his job, starting his business, and committing to his vision. Believe it or not, it only took him months to achieve everything he wanted and then some!

Now, most people don't move as fast as Dan, but his story points to something incredible. It’s a testament to the uncanny power of writing down what you want, the importance of pushing through fear to dedicate yourself to a promising plan, the essential element of simplicity, and the delicious motivation that comes from watching the life you want start appearing before your eyes.

So if you’re hesitant about this whole vision thing, or if you haven’t really given it a shot, stop what you’re doing and listen to this episode. Let Dan help you decide TODAY to write your vision and start living intentionally in a way you never have before!

Steve and Laura once read that if they had 100 doors, they’d have freedom. By almost accomplishing this goal, they found its promise to be far from the truth.
