31: Who’s Really Choosing Your Beliefs?

“Your future thoughts are downstream from what you consume today”. In this episode of The Middle-Aged & Miserable Podcast, Pat and Chris expose how social media algorithms and 24/7 news shift your attention toward outrage and fear, then show you how to reverse it. If your beliefs about yourself and the world have turned darker, your energy is dropping, or you’re arguing about things you can’t control, you’re likely being programmed by your inputs.You’ll learn the Information Consumption Audit - a simple, repeatable system to map your top five inputs, measure the emotional aftertaste, and decide what to mute, remove, or replace. Then we walk you through training your algorithm: deliberately liking, completing, and saving content that supports your goals (career, business, purpose) while muting keywords and unsubscribing from feeds that hijack your attention. We also cover how digital peer groups now act as your “five people” - and how to curate a positive proxy peer group with uplifting podcasts and communities.Run the audit once a month. Soon, you’ll feel calmer, more focused, and back in the driving seat of your life.If you are interested in accelerating your professional success in your career or business and your wealth, we can help you. We do this by upgrading your unconscious programming, mindset and habits, so you can get the success you want (whatever that is for you).
