On this episode of the podcast originally released in May 2018, I spoke with Marc and Angel Chernoff. Marc and Angel are the authors of the book Getting Back To Happy: Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Reality and Turn Your Trials Into Triumphs and this episode is being re-released to celebrate their latest effort, The Good Morning Journal: Powerful Prompts and Reflections to Start Every Day.
In this insightful episode, we delve into the importance of daily habits and rituals in shaping our identity and driving personal growth. "We are what we do on a daily basis," emphasizes the importance of daily practices and their cumulative effect on our lives.
A central theme throughout our discussion is the narrative we create with our thoughts. According to Marc and Angel, these stories we tell ourselves significantly influence our perception of reality. A striking revelation from the discussion is that "98% of the time, the problem is not the problem, it's something deeper."
Key Discussion Points

Our identity is largely shaped by our daily habits and rituals.

Rituals act as the foundation for mindfulness and personal growth.

Journaling is a powerful tool for self-inquiry, especially during stressful experiences.

The stories we tell ourselves influence our perception of reality.

98% of the time, the problem we think we're facing is not the actual problem; it's something deeper.

Recording and reviewing our thoughts can bring clarity and awareness.

Visual reminders and an accountability system are practical strategies to implement these principles.

Self-accountability can be enhanced by formulating questions about our experiences and having someone read them back to us.
