Stop Setting Goals — Become the Person Who Wins - E192

Stop Setting Goals — Become the Person Who Wins - E192

Learn the identity-first mindset that helps you become the person you want to be, long before proof shows up. New personal growth podcast — listen now.

Ninety-two percent of people who set a goal this year will abandon it before spring. Not from lack of motivation — because they tried to change what they do without deciding who they are first. Today, Dr. JC breaks down the identity-first mindset: how your habits, your routines, even how you respond to a diagnosis, are votes for who you've already decided to become. By the end of this episode, you'll stop asking what you want — and start asking who you're becoming.
