Everyone is born a blank slate. Not one person is born with specific beliefs or mindsets. Our parents and families instill them in us as we grow up. Generally, around seven years old, we are already heavily programmed to be similar to those around us. Then, we spend the rest of our lives reprogramming ourselves into who we want to be.
In this episode, Jim has a conversation with his good friend, Sean Osborn. Sean is a technology entrepreneur who uses technology to get people to their goals faster. As a mindset strategist and coach, Sean specializes in getting people to the next level. After building and selling successful IT systems, he learned that people are not that different from technology. He then built the YouOS framework â a blueprint for programming success in your life.
Listen in to get motivated and learn how you can get to your goals faster.
In this episode, you will hear about:
What Seanâs YouOS is How Sean came up with his mindset model The similarities between technology and humans Being purposeful in our reprogramming The science behind our programming Programming ourselves through visualization The conscious vs. subconscious mindResources from this episode:

In this episode of Get On Track, I dive deep into the importance of self-awareness and personal growth in driving success in business and life. I share my own journey of realizing that the biggest obstacle in the growth of a young business is often the business owner themselves and how I had to learn to ask for help and grow as a person to scale my business.
We explore the challenges faced by entrepreneurs with high "A" personalities and the importance of being aware of one's survival function, rewiring memorized emotions, and implementing systems and rules within the business. I also discuss the different types of business owners and how understanding your own strengths and weaknesses can help you build a more effective team.
This episode sets the foundation for upcoming conversations with high-performing race car drivers, successful entrepreneurs, and experts in mindset and marketing. So whether you're a race car driver, business owner, or someone looking to start a side hustle, the insights shared in this episode aim to help you grow and succeed in your chosen path.
