Episode 102: The One With The Bedtime Story

Did you know that your brain functions in a different state as you're drifting off to sleep, and as you're awakening?Your subconscious is more open to suggestions during this phase, and that's why I try to stay away from all the negative stuff before I go to sleep, and for a while after I awake. That's what inspired me to drop this episode as a "bedtime story." I found this story really inspiring. So many of us have a wonderful idea but talk ourselves out of taking action for one reason or another. It's that tape our subconscious mind plays over and over, telling us all the reasons why something WON'T work.But what if we recorded a NEW tape? One that inspired us to take inspired action? One that encouraged us to believe in ourselves and our ideas so that we could start living an intentional life?It's my hope that you listen to this as you're drifting off to sleep tonight. And if you fall asleep while listening, that's totally OK! You know why? Because your subconscious mind is still paying attention! And that matters - maybe even more than you realize.Want to grab a copy of this book?

BLOOD ON THE TRACKS Season 4: The Brian Wilson Story iHeartPodcasts and Double Elvis In 1966, Brian Wilson planned to follow up the Beach Boys' groundbreaking album Pet Sounds with an even bigger musical statement. He was writing a teenage symphony to God. That album, Smile, was never finished. Instead, Brian slowly unraveled, as the pressure to make something profound weighed heavy on him. He worried that he wasn’t good enough. He worried that he was a failure in the eyes of the record company, his band, his peers, and his own father. He thought his house was bugged. He thought the music he was making conjured some strange voodoo that had a disastrous impact on the real world. He became paranoid. He self-medicated with amphetamines, hash, and LSD. He held meetings in his swimming pool. He imagined people who weren’t there. And eventually, in 1967, he went off the proverbial deep end. Did the real Brian Wilson ever resurface?
