Ep 129: Why Passively Consuming My Podcast is Getting You Nowhere with Carl Berryman
Are you an avid podcast listener who binges on shows but struggles to integrate the information actively into your life?
In this episode, we have back on the show—for a record third time— Mr. Carl J. Berryman, the host of the Inspired by Impact podcast and one of my closest brothers from another mother.
Carl had me on, along with Paul Salter, on his show, and we discussed the very important concept of INTENTIONALITY—of being intentional, deliberate, and directive with your actions after you hear something notable, helpful, inspirational, or profound in some way.
How are you using all this content you consume? If you&aposre a podcast listener like me, you&aposve probably binged shows, even Wits & Weights, which I&aposm happy for, but are you actively applying that information to your life?
Carl listens to this program and is an expert at implementing information, and he will demonstrate the Mental Muscle Up (MMU) approach to show you how to accomplish this yourself. All I ask is that you attempt it in this episode.
