By reframing how we think about ourselves, we can plant the seeds of confidence, positivity, and success in our subconscious mind.


    The discussion then moves to understanding what the subconscious mind is and how it works. The team at Always Improving explains the value of cultivating a positive subconscious and how tools like ikigai can guide us to live with clarity and purpose. Murphy’s insights make it clear that our inner mind holds the key to unlocking our potential and that aligning our thoughts with our goals can lead to profound success.


    From there, Mike and Mark explore actionable strategies for reprogramming the subconscious. Drawing on wisdom from Four Minute Books and Always Improving, they explain how to use techniques like visualization, the placebo effect, and active communication with the subconscious mind. These practical tips will help you tap into your hidden potential and steer your life toward fulfillment and achievement.


    The episode concludes with a powerful call to action from Joseph Murphy: focus your energy and attention on what you want to achieve, and watch your subconscious magnify those desires into reality. Whether you’re seeking personal growth, professional success, or a more profound sense of purpose, Murphy’s insights provide a roadmap for turning dreams into reality.

  • Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It with Chris Voss (Never Split the Difference)
    Nov 12 2024
    In this eye-opening episode, hosts Mike and Mark explore the transformative negotiation techniques of former FBI hostage negotiator Chris Voss, as outlined in his bestselling book Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It. Drawing from his years of experience in high-stakes negotiations, Voss redefines what it means to “win” a negotiation by focusing on human psychology, empathy, and strategic communication.Episode Links• 📘 Episode Webpage• 🎥 Watch on YouTube• 📖 Never Split the Difference Book Summary: [Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It]Become a Moonshots Member: Join us on Patreon for exclusive content and deeper dives into groundbreaking ideas.Key Concepts and Techniques Explored in the Episode 1. Tactical Empathy and Building Rapport • Mike and Mark begin by exploring Voss’s concept of tactical empathy, a nuanced skill beyond surface-level listening. Tactical empathy involves deeply understanding and acknowledging the emotions and motivations of the other party. By employing empathy tactically, Voss believes you can forge a stronger connection and create trust, which can ultimately guide the other party toward a mutually beneficial outcome. 2. Mastering the Power of “Why” • The hosts then delve into strategically using “why” in negotiations. Voss explains that asking “why” thoughtfully can prompt people to think more deeply about their choices, often leading them to reveal core motivations or insecurities. By guiding the other party to reflect, negotiators can uncover valuable insights that facilitate collaborative decision-making. 3. The “Jedi Mind Trick” of Mirroring • Mike and Mark examine the art of mirroring, one of Voss’s most practical techniques. By repeating the last few words spoken by the other party, a negotiator can encourage deeper sharing while building an unspoken bond. This technique requires little effort but can profoundly affect the conversation’s flow, creating a more comfortable and open environment. 4. Using “I,” “You,” and “It” to Shape Perception • In this section, Voss’s insights on language choice come into focus. He explains that specific pronouns—“I,” “you,” and “it”—carry different weights in conversation. Each one subtly impacts the direction and tone of the negotiation. For instance, “you” can direct attention, while “it” can help depersonalize tense topics. Mike and Mark share examples of how this subtle shift can change the course of any negotiation. 5. The Surprising Value of Silence • Voss’s unconventional advice to use silence as a negotiation tool is another highlight. Rather than filling every pause, allowing silence in conversation creates an opportunity for the other party to open up. Silence is often uncomfortable, and people instinctively fill it—sometimes with critical information or additional offers. Mike and Mark discuss how practicing silence can be a powerful way to encourage others to reveal more and lead the negotiation to a more advantageous position. 6. Creating a Value Proposition and the Ackerman Bargaining Model • As the episode unfolds, Mike and Mark discuss the importance of clearly presenting your value proposition. Voss argues that negotiators create a collaborative foundation by starting with what the other party values. Then, through the Ackerman Model, a systematic approach to reaching target prices, Voss teaches how to make offers in gradual increments to drive negotiations forward. 7. Seeing “No” as an Opportunity • In a final, counterintuitive insight, Voss reframes “No” as a potential gateway rather than a barrier. Encouraging the other party to say “No” gives them a sense of control, often opening the door for more authentic conversation. Although contrary to conventional negotiation strategies, Mike and Mark discuss how this technique can unlock constructive dialogue and facilitate honest discussions.Throughout the episode, Mike and Mark reflect on how these techniques apply not just in business negotiations but in everyday interactions, from personal relationships to team discussions. With real-life examples and relatable insights, the hosts make Voss’s techniques accessible and actionable for all listeners, regardless of their negotiation experience.Episode Links • 📘 Episode Webpage • 🎥 Watch on YouTube • 📖 Never Split the Difference Book Summary: [Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It]Become a Moonshots Member: Join us on Patreon for exclusive content and deeper dives into groundbreaking ideas.

  • Atomic Habits: Proven Strategies to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones
    Oct 29 2024
    In this thought-provoking episode of the Moonshots Podcast, hosts Mike and Mark unpack the groundbreaking insights of James Clear's Atomic Habits. Known for its highly actionable approach, Clear’s book presents a powerful system for personal and professional growth, showing how small changes can compound into significant life transformations.The hosts begin with a compelling discussion on why habits are crucial for long-term success. They share Clear’s philosophy that habits aren’t just about behavior but about cultivating an identity. Clear’s unique method focuses on “identity-based habits,” encouraging us to adopt habits that reflect the kind of person we aspire to become rather than merely aiming for specific outcomes. Mike and Mark dig into the mechanics behind this shift, offering listeners ways to create habits that align with their values and vision for the future.Moving into behavior and mindset change, Mike and Mark explore Clear’s Four Laws of Behavior Change: make it obvious, make it attractive, make it easy, and make it satisfying. This system is a roadmap for cultivating good habits and eradicating bad ones.
