Ever wondered why you’re not getting the results you want in the gym, in your business and perhaps all the areas of your life?There could be many reasons but a huge reason is talked about in this episode, self-integrity. Are you being 100% integral with your word to yourself relative to your desired outcomes?
Do you eat the way you say you’ll eat? Do you go to the gym when you say you will go? Do you lead generate for your business like you say you will? Do you do what you say you’ll do when you say you’ll do it?
If you just said no to the above questions you’re going to love this episode because it’s all about self-integrity! It’s all about doing what you say you’re going to do when you say you’re going to do it.
In this episode I discuss:[2:46] How you can have a 100-500% increase in your productivity when you keep your word to yourself.[7:08] How I used to lie to myself about integrity (and you probably do too).[22:44] How we speak our lives into existence.[23:12] Why not keeping your word affects your self-esteem.And, of course, much much more.Self-Integrity is VITAL to your success in any activity and according to a Harvard business professor who studies it, it’s one of the most over-looked concepts in business and life.When we’re out of self-integrity, nothing works, we keep failing over and over in many areas of life that we think are important to us.Let me rephrase the last paragraph, things work in life but they rarely work the way we want when we’re out of integrity.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
Be 100% impeccable with your word to yourself.

In this episode, Jim Fortin reveals the one thing you must release if you truly want more from life: your emotional baggage. From guilt and fear to shame and self-judgment, Jim breaks down why clinging to these old emotions keeps you stuck at “first base” in life—safe but stagnant. Through powerful metaphors, real coaching stories, and deep subconscious insights, Jim explains how to finally let go so you can receive what your soul is really asking for.
Jim dives into the neuroscience and energetics behind why we resist letting go—even when it costs us everything we want. You’ll learn how we become emotionally enslaved by past events, why our brains trick us into choosing safety over growth, and how unresolved fears block the flow of abundance, joy, and personal power. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing the inner work but still stuck, this episode will help you understand why—and what to do next.
If you’re ready to stop circling the same fears and finally step into more, this episode will show you how to drop the weight and open the door to transformation.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
Why You Can’t Keep One Foot on First Base (01:12) Jim introduces a powerful metaphor that illustrates why holding on to the past blocks new opportunities.
Nathan’s Story: The Cost of Holding On (05:15) A coaching example that shows how unresolved shame and guilt can sabotage progress—no matter how much we say we want change.
The Furniture Metaphor: No Room for the New (11:40) Jim explains how holding on to emotional baggage leaves no space for new experiences or abundance.
How Your Fears Keep Circling Like Coyotes (24:45) A vivid story to help you see how fear continues to show up until you confront and conquer it.
Are You a Slave to Emotion? (22:30) Jim challenges listeners to consider whether their lives are being run by fear, shame, or the need for external validation.
Your Soul Is Waiting—Let It Out (20:30) A reminder that soulful living requires courage, not comfort—and that everything you want lies beyond fear.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You can’t have more in life until you let go of what’s weighing you down. Transformation isn’t about gaining—it’s about releasing. Fear, shame, guilt, and self-judgment don’t define you—they delay you. Let go to let in. You were never meant to carry the past forever. The life you want is already waiting… if you have the courage to put down what’s holding you back and reach for it.

Are you stuck trying to “figure life out” before taking your next step? In this episode, Jim Fortin unpacks the illusion behind this common mindset and reveals why overthinking keeps so many people trapped in a cycle of confusion, frustration, and inaction. Through real-life stories and his own experience, Jim explains why waiting for clarity often leads nowhere—and how taking inspired action is the true path to freedom and fulfillment.
Jim explores the psychological trap of needing all the answers before moving forward, a mindset that holds countless people in place. He introduces a powerful shift: clarity doesn’t come before action—it comes because of it. Whether you’re trying to make a big life move or simply feel stuck, this episode offers the key to break free from the paradox and reclaim your momentum.
If you’ve spent far too long trying to think your way to clarity, this episode is the wake-up call to stop overthinking and start living.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
Why Trying to “Figure It Out” Doesn’t Work (01:05) Jim explains why most people stay stuck not because they can’t move, but because they believe they need all the answers before doing so.
John’s Story: The Paralysis of Overthinking (03:00) A powerful example of how overthinking—and the need for certainty—can keep someone stagnant for years.
The Real Solution: Action Creates Clarity (06:45) Jim shares the philosophy “something leads to something” and shows how taking any action can unlock new opportunities and awareness.
How to Make Calculated, Inspired Risks (10:30) Jim contrasts reckless risk with intuitive, aligned decision-making—and how to know the difference.
When Analytical Thinking Becomes the Enemy (17:50) A discussion on why too much thinking actually blocks intuition, inspiration, and growth.
The Heart-Led Way to Move Forward (23:40) Jim introduces a more effective approach to decision-making—one guided by joy, peace, and your inner knowing.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You don’t need to “figure it all out” to start moving forward. In fact, the longer you wait for perfect clarity, the further you drift from the life you want. Clarity is born from action—not thought. Trust that taking one small, inspired step will reveal the next. Life always supports movement. And remember: everything always has been, is now, and always will be fine.

How often have you set goals or wanted something badly only to find that you fail over and over in achieving it?
If you can say yes to the line above, you’re not alone, this is the pattern for most people and the cause is simple, people are setting goals for things that are not in their self-image. People are trying to perform at levels that are outside their self-image and subconscious identity.
Many years ago I remember hearing the motivational speaker Les Brown said, “You cannot operate outside of the context of the vision you have for yourself.” Which basically means, you cannot be, do or have what you are not.
In this episode I talk about:[1:24] What your self-image is and how it was created[2:21] The cycle of self-identity reinforcement[5:57] The illusion of self-image[15:53] Why you’ll never live up to your full potential[27:22] How to reverse engineer your life from the inside out[31:01] And, How nothing in your life will change until you change
There’s an old Tibetan saying, “What you are on the inside is what you are on the outside.” If you want more in your life you must BE more in life.
There is absolutely no escape from this concept. You must first be it in your mind before you can have it in your life.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You cannot outperform yourself!

What would your life look like if you knew—without a doubt—that you were unstoppable? In part four of the Zero Limit Person series, Jim Fortin explores the final core identity in the series: “I Am Unstoppable Power.” Building on the previous episodes that unpacked “I Am Unlimited Source,” “I Am a Supreme Being,” and “I Am Infinite Abundance,” this powerful conclusion helps listeners strip away ego, doubt, and conditioning to reclaim their inherent, unlimited power.
Jim challenges the identity most people live from—one rooted in limitation, lack, and unworthiness—and replaces it with the truth of who we really are: reflections of infinite source. He dives into how our early social conditioning, false beliefs about worth, and ego attachments stop us from recognizing our true identity. Through examples, reflections, and practical insights, Jim reveals how unstoppable power isn’t something to achieve; it’s something to remember, feel, and live from.
If you’re ready to stop working from desperation and start aligning with the truth of who you are, this episode is your call to return to your natural state—limitless, powerful, and free.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
The Real Reason You Feel “Stuck” (02:20) Jim breaks down how ego and early social conditioning bury our awareness of our true, unstoppable power.
Why “Wanting” Blocks Manifestation (09:30) Desire comes from lack. Jim explains why recognizing your power is the key to manifesting what you want.
How to Begin Living from Your True Power (14:50) It’s not about achieving more—it’s about remembering that the power already lives in you.
Stop Settling and Start Aligning (19:40) Jim poses the question: If you knew you were unstoppable, would you still settle for less in life?
Rewriting Your Identity Through Feeling (26:30) Learn how feeling the truth of your power—not just thinking it—is what rewires your internal state.
The Morning Practice That Changes Everything (31:50) Jim shares a 5-minute daily practice to anchor your awareness in your identity as unstoppable power.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You don’t have to become unstoppable power—you already are. You are a reflection of source, of divine intelligence, of the same force that governs the universe. That means being unstoppable isn’t extraordinary—it’s natural. But it requires remembering. Strip away the layers of ego, doubt, and history that tell you otherwise. Sit with the truth: I am unstoppable power. Feel it. Live it. And let it guide every choice, every action, and every manifestation from this day forward.

If you’re like most people you go through your days never having enough time, always playing “catch up” and wondering what you can do differently to get things done, right? If this is you, then you’re going to love this podcast episode because getting everything done that you need to is not about managing your time, it’s about prioritizing your commitments and values. When you know what you value most and what you’re committed to, it’s then easy to understand how you need to prioritize your time. If you don’t know what you’re committed to you don’t know how you’re choosing and when you don’t know how you’re choosing you’re mismanaging your time.
Actually, the reason most people never have enough time is because they manage their day by time, and when you manage your day by time, you’ll never have enough time. Look at your own life and you’ll probably find that to be true. If you want to “catch up” and be productive and get things done then you must start managing your time by commitments and values.
In this episode I discuss:Managing your time is no longer about the clockWhenever you manage your time by time or circumstance, you will never have enough timePrioritize your time, energy, and effort to get you to bigger long-term rewards, than chasing your tail every single dayWhat am I committed to? Whatever you are committed to is what you want to prioritizeIf you don’t know what you are committed to, you don’t know how you’re choosing, then you do not know how you are investing or squandering your timeWhatever you’re in the habit of, is how you invest your timeWhat am I committed to and who do I have to BE to make it happen
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
Instead of working from the clock, and by the clock, where you want to start working from is, what am I committed to?

What if you’re not just capable of abundance—but are abundance itself? In part three of the Zero Limit Person series, Jim Fortin invites listeners to challenge everything they’ve been taught about prosperity and manifestation. This episode, I Am Infinite Abundance, unpacks the powerful truth that abundance isn’t something to chase—it’s something to know, embody, and live from.
Jim takes a bold stance against the noise and distraction of modern life that keeps us externally focused and disconnected from our true nature. Through clear examples and deep reflection, he explains why most people work backwards in life—believing they must "attract" abundance rather than realizing they already are it. He reveals how inner alignment with infinite source energy, not outer action, is the true key to prosperity.
If you’ve ever struggled with money, worth, or success, this episode is your invitation to stop chasing and start remembering who you really are.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
You Are Infinite Abundance, Not Just a Magnet for It (02:20) Jim explains the critical difference between attracting abundance and being abundance.
The Content vs. Context Distinction (05:30) Why most people fail to transform despite consuming content—and how to shift into real integration.
Why Silence Is the Gateway to Abundance (08:45) Jim shares a powerful self-reflection exercise and explains why so many fear being alone with themselves.
The Truth About Manifestation and Internal State (16:15) A compelling story about two massage therapists and how your being shapes your abundance—not your doing.
The Universe Doesn't Judge—It Responds (30:00) Even polarizing figures like Trump channel abundance. Why? Because they identify with it.
Money Is a Mirror of Your Inner Reality (35:30) Jim breaks down how fear repels abundance and why love and alignment are the true attractors.
Claim Your Identity as Source (40:48) You don’t become infinite abundance—you are it. It’s time to remember.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You are not separate from abundance. You are not something broken that needs fixing. You are consciousness, divine mind, infinite source—expressing through human form. The illusion of lack is just that: an illusion. When you stop chasing and start knowing, life responds. Infinite abundance isn’t something you “get.” It’s what you are. Remember this truth, live from this truth, and everything changes. Stop asking. Start being.

How many times have you tried to change and failed and then said things like…“I’m so weak, I have no willpower, I can’t trust myself,” and the like?
Well, the truth is this, when you’ve tried to change in the past and failed, it’s not about you personally, it’s about your habits. More specifically, it’s about your reptilian brain habits.
So, when you’ve tried to change before and failed, it has nothing to do with weakness, it simply has to do with knowing how to work with your brain.
In this episode I talk about:
[2:30] How personalizing your habits is a mistake
[3:50] Why your habits are not about “you”
[5:29] Why you are not your habits
[7:14] The fact that you’ve been indoctrinated into who you are
[10:23] How your indoctrination keeps you trapped
[18:03] Your money and health indoctrination
[21:25] And, the reason you should choose your self-indoctrination
I often tell people, “You’re not at the mercy of your circumstances, you’re at the mercy of your interpretations.” And, it’s vital that you not personalize your habits and your interpretations because you’re then working against yourself in your quest for change and transformation.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You are not weak, you are not at the mercy of your circumstances and indoctrination, you are at the mercy of what you CHOOSE to indoctrinate yourself with, your self-talk and habits.

What if the only thing holding you back from your full potential… is the identity you’ve been taught to believe in? In part two of his “Zero Limit Person” series, Jim Fortin takes you deeper into the shift from a limited, human identity to your true nature: a supreme being. He explains the difference between deductive and inductive reasoning and how most of us operate from a framework that keeps us small. In this episode, you’ll learn how to begin identifying as a cosmic, divine being—not from ego, but from truth.
Jim challenges societal and religious dogma and invites you to see beyond the conditioning you inherited by birth. He offers a liberating perspective: that you are not a nationality, a gender, or a name, but consciousness itself. When you embrace your true nature as source energy, you free yourself from fear, lack, division, and limitation.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to dissolve the illusion of separation and reclaim their true spiritual power.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
The Problem with Deductive Identity (02:00)
Why reasoning from your “human self” limits what you think is possible for your life.
How to Shift Into an Inductive Identity (04:30)
Jim explains how to reframe your self-understanding by reasoning from your true, cosmic essence.
The Dogma That Keeps You Small (10:00)
Why cultural and religious belief systems often strip away your inner power—and what to do about it.
“I Am a Supreme Being”: The Awareness to Live By (19:40)
A five-word identity shift that reclaims your power and reshapes your entire life.
How Division Blocks Transformation (17:30)
Jim explores how religion and nationality create separation—and prevent inner evolution.
The Eagle Who Thought It Was a Chicken (26:30)
A powerful metaphor for why most of us live far below our true potential.
What It Means to Truly Know Yourself (30:00)
You’ll never think your way to freedom—Jim explains why knowing, not analyzing, is the path to awakening.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You are not your religion, your passport, your fears, or even your thoughts. You are source. You are a supreme being—consciousness itself—expressing temporarily through human form. Let go of what you’ve been taught. The moment you know—not just believe—but truly know your divine nature, you awaken from the dream of limitation. Don’t try to think your way there. Sit with this awareness. Feel it. Let it rise within you. And when it does, you will no longer just learn transformation—you will be it.

Goals, for most of your life you’ve heard people talking about goals and why you should set them.
In this Q&A episode I talk about goals from a few different perspectives and I talk about why I don’t personally set them. Yes, you read that right, I don’t set goals.
In this episode I talk about:
[6:56] Working by a “12 week year”
[10:38] Why it’s important to break down goals into quarters
[11:32] Why tracking is so important if you set goals
[12:15] How “processing styles” can sabotage your goals
[14:29] The role of habits in your goal achievement
[15:23] How subconscious identity plays into your goals
[26:40] Why goal setting can be detrimental, research proven
[29:33] And, finally, why I personally do not set goals
I really enjoyed creating this episode. This is such an overrated topic, in my opinion, and it’s one that that has been drilled into our heads since we were kids.
So, I go a few different directions in this episode. If you want to set goals I talk about breaking them down. If you don’t want to set goals or you want a more healthy approach I talk about some Harvard research and my personal approach.
I had fun with this episode, I hope you enjoy it.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
Break goals into 12 weeks and trackable results. Know your brain based processing style so you can apply it to your goals. And, finally, counter intuitive I know, but don’t set goals when you work from BEing the goal first in your mind.

What if everything you believe about your limitations is false? In this opening episode of a brand-new series, Jim introduces the transformational concept of becoming a “Zero Limit Person.” He challenges the identities we’ve been indoctrinated into—identities that shape how we think, act, and live—and reminds us that we are not our culture, beliefs, or even our names. We are pure energy, straight from Source, with no limits—except those we’ve been taught to believe in.
Jim goes deeper by unpacking how our perceived limits are tied to our learned identity. He explains why starting from your current (limited) self will never get you to where you want to go—and instead offers a radical shift in thinking: to begin from your already unlimited nature. This isn’t about motivation or self-help hacks—it’s about fundamentally knowing yourself as cosmic, eternal, and all-powerful energy.
If you’re ready to remember who you truly are and start living from your infinite potential, this is the series—and the episode—to listen to.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
What It Really Means to Be a Zero Limit Person (01:00)
Jim shares the foundational shift in identity required to live without limits.
The Drop of Water Metaphor That Changes Everything (06:30)
You are to Source what a drop is to the ocean—separate in form, but not in essence.
The Trap of Point A to Point B Thinking (13:50)
Why you’ll never create true transformation by working from your current self.
The Core Declaration That Will Change Your Life (16:20)
Four simple words that begin the process of dissolving limitation: “I am unlimited source.”
How to Reprogram Your Identity Through Repetition (23:00)
Why repetition creates your reality—and how to consciously use it to transform your life.
The Holographic Universe and Your Infinite Power (28:00)
Understanding how even the smallest part of you reflects the all—because you are the all.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You are not your job, your culture, your body, or your name. You are Source—unlimited, cosmic energy experiencing life in physical form. The moment you know this—not just think or believe it—but truly know it, is the moment you become a Zero Limit Person. Repeat this truth daily: “I am unlimited source.” Feel it. Embody it. Live from it. And watch your life transform.

Trying to control your life? Control others? Getting into control in general?
HINT: You have NO control, even if you think you do. Like it or not, your brain does all the “controlling” for you and that’s not a matter of opinion, it’s scientifically proven.
Stop fighting life and stop trying to control life, it’s a waste of time and energy.
In this episode I talk about:
[2:02] How science proves that you have zero control over your life
[6:27] How your “habits” actually control you
[7:39] Why your habits are what they are
[9:15] How parts of your brain work against each other
[13:48] Why your emotions are stronger than your thinking
[20:46] Why your habits are more important than your beliefs
And, like I say over and over…much more.
If you want the next 12 months to be your happiest and best ever then stop thinking about what you want and start focusing on your habits. You don’t get what you want in life, you get your habits and for the most part, CONTROL is a habit.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You’re not in charge and you have no control, your brain is in control, not “you.”

In part two of this deeply personal series, Jim Fortin continues to explore the mystery and wisdom of Don Xavier, the shaman and spiritual teacher who has profoundly shaped Jim’s life and work. After receiving overwhelming feedback from part one, Jim returns with more extraordinary stories—many never shared before—offering listeners a rare glimpse into the spiritual teachings, experiences, and insights he’s gained over decades of walking this transformational path.
This episode is packed with powerful anecdotes—from ceremonies under the stars in sacred lands to dreamtime revelations that defy logic. Jim dives deeper into what it means to walk the path of awareness, the dangers of over-identifying with the analytical mind, and the spiritual significance behind everyday and extraordinary events. He also shares text messages from Don Xavier that point to the core of what true shamanism is: merging with the “All,” or Anima Mundi.
If you’re ready to open your heart, quiet your mind, and awaken to a reality beyond 3D logic, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode
The misunderstood path of shamanism (00:00) – Jim reintroduces Don Xavier and sets the record straight about who he really is—and isn’t.
Belief, skepticism, and “cult” misconceptions (02:50) – Why working with Don Xavier is the opposite of dogma and belief-based systems.
Transformation through experience, not belief (06:13) – Jim shares how growth happens when you let go of needing to “know” and embrace being.
The power of observation over intellect (09:09) – Discover why true awareness begins when you stop thinking and start seeing.
Merging with the All: Anima Mundi (12:06) – Don Xavier’s profound message on connecting with nature, energy, and all living beings.
Miracles in the mundane (15:01) – From disappearing winds to perfect recoveries, Jim recalls unexplainable events during sacred ceremonies.
Freeing yourself from the analytical mind (17:57) – How trying to figure everything out actually weighs you down and limits your evolution.
Dreams, animals, and messages from beyond (20:51) – Stories that challenge logic but expand your perception of reality and karma.
The future of humanity and the threat of AI (24:11) – Don Xavier’s sobering warning about how technology may again lead to humanity’s collapse.
A call to awaken (36:12) – Jim’s closing message on the illusion of certainty and the importance of living with curiosity, awareness, and heart.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
There’s more to life than meets the eye—and it’s not what you think. The more we try to figure everything out, the more we distance ourselves from true wisdom. Growth begins when we quiet the analytical mind and return to the stillness of observation, connection, and trust in the unknown. As Don Xavier teaches, your mind is not your brain—real transformation starts when you stop thinking and start seeing.

In today’s episode, you’ll learn why it has been so hard to break your bad habits. The reason why is that people try to use willpower to break bad habits and willpower is a conscious process and habits come from the reptilian brain. When you got up this morning you didn’t say “ok I’m going to get out of bed then go to the bathroom then shower”…. it happened automatically without conscious analytical thought.
All of us go through life on autopilot, and if you have what you do not want, you’ve created that on autopilot. If you want to create new things in life, you’ve got to create new habits.
In this episode you'll learn:
Your entire life is a habit. You must focus on creating the habits that create the outcome that you want.
Most people have a story that it’s hard to break a habit.
Most people try and create change with the wrong part of the brain
My habit program that will show you how to eliminate any habit without using willpower
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You are not your habits. You are not your urges. You are not your habit voice telling you to go into your habits. (That’s your reptilian brain talking) You are you and your brain runs your habits. You cannot change your habits by fighting them. You must communicate with reptilian brain and it becomes easy for you to break your habits.

In this powerful solo episode, Jim Fortin explores a concept he’s never directly addressed before: the identity illusion—and how it subconsciously keeps people stuck in cycles of struggle, fear, and self-sabotage. He explains why most people never truly change, no matter how much they learn, and reveals why transformation doesn’t come from more information—but from breaking free of who you think you are.
Jim takes listeners deep into the subconscious mind, breaking down the mechanisms behind identity verification, predictability, and disintegration anxiety. Using vivid metaphors and examples, he explains how we unknowingly recreate the same results in life—whether financial ceilings, toxic relationships, or emotional blocks—and why you can't escape the illusion from inside the illusion.
If you're tired of trying to think your way to change or wondering why you can't break old habits, this episode is the wake-up call you didn't know you needed.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode
The Trap of the Identity Illusion (03:30) – Why you always fall back into the same patterns, even after gaining insights or motivation.
Why More Information Isn’t the Solution (11:10) – The critical difference between understanding and being—and why just “knowing” doesn’t change your life.
You Can’t Escape the Box from Inside the Box (19:42) – A powerful metaphor that explains why transformation requires an external shift in perspective.
How You Unconsciously Verify Your Identity (28:05) – The hidden way you attract experiences that confirm who you believe you are—even when it’s painful.
The Role of Predictability and Disintegration Anxiety (35:21) – How the brain’s survival mechanisms stop you from creating lasting change.
Why You’ll Stay Trapped Without Mentorship (47:50) – Jim’s own turning point story that underscores why mentorship is essential for real growth.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You are not your struggles, your past, or your circumstances. You are a being living inside an illusion of identity—one that was formed by subconscious beliefs, childhood experiences, and repeated patterns. The good news? Illusions can be broken. But it requires a shift in being, not just thinking. True transformation begins when you step outside of the box and allow yourself to see what’s really been holding you back. It’s not that you’re broken—it’s that you’ve been hypnotized by an old version of yourself. Set yourself free.

If you’re like just about every person on the planet you’ve wanted something different in your life and you’ve tried to “change your mindset” to create new things in life, right?
And, if you’re like most of the planet, a few days later you’ve found yourself right back in your old patterns and ways.
Why does this happen?
Easy, “changing your mindset” does not work. It’s a left-brain process and behavior and habits come from a different part of the brain, the reptilian brain…so, when trying to think our way to change we have two parts of our brain at odds and the reptilian brain will dominate and always win!
In this episode I talk about why changing your mindset never works and I give you a path to what works and what to do instead.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
Changing mindset does not work - changing identity and habits does

If you’ve read all the books, been to all the seminars, followed all the gurus and you still don’t have what you want in life it’s because you’ve not learned to master your attention – it’s the Master Key in life.
The definition of ATTENTION IS: the act or state of applying the mind to something. Attention filters into every single aspect of your life: Health, money, happiness, marriage, relationships and every other aspect of your life. If you find yourself somewhere that you don’t want to be in life it’s because that’s “where your attention is.” Want something different, then move your attention.
In this episode I talk about mastering attention and how that applies to health, wealth and happiness.
And, I talk about how MOST people keep their attention in the past and future and very few people live in the present moment. I also give you an example of how most are trapped in the past and future and don’t live from and for NOW.
If you want more in life then listen to this episode and start to work on mastering your attention. You’ll be glad you did.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
You are where your attention is.

In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim explores the fundamental idea that everything in life happens within the context of what we assume to be true. He introduces the concept of "the human context" and challenges listeners to shift to a higher frame of reference. By recognizing that we are in this world but not of this world, we gain freedom from limiting beliefs and self-imposed constraints.
Diving deeper, Jim discusses how our subconscious identity shapes our life experiences. He shares personal anecdotes, including a powerful metaphor about life being like a rental car, emphasizing the temporary nature of our physical existence. Through this lens, he encourages listeners to rethink their attachments, step out of limiting human identity, and embrace a higher consciousness.
If you're ready to break free from the lower-frequency identity that keeps you stuck, this episode will open your eyes to a profound shift in perspective.
What You’ll Discover in This Episode:
The Power of Assumptions (01:45) – How our life experiences are shaped by the unconscious assumptions we hold.
The Rental Car Metaphor (07:12) – A simple yet profound analogy that changes how you see your physical existence.
Being in This World, But Not of It (14:30) – Understanding why your true essence transcends human experience.
Releasing the Old Identity (21:05) – How detaching from past narratives can create space for transformation.
How External Context Drains You (30:40) – The energetic cost of consuming news, social media, and other distractions.
A 30-Day Detox Challenge (38:50) – A practical exercise to help reclaim your power and shift your awareness.
Listen, apply, and enjoy!
Transformational Takeaway
Your power lies beyond the tangible world. When you recognize that you are not merely your human identity but a part of something infinite, you free yourself from the limitations of fear, scarcity, and external control. Shift your focus inward, release attachment to the human context, and embrace the limitless potential of your true essence.
