    492. The Science of Self-Doubt: Transform Fear Into Your Superpower
    Feb 17 2025
    Have you ever felt like a fraud? Like you're just one step away from being "found out"—that you're not as capable as others believe you to be? If so, you're not alone. Imposter syndrome affects up to 70% of high achievers at some point, making them question their worth and downplay their accomplishments. In this episode, we explore the roots of imposter syndrome, how it manifests, and why it’s so common among high achievers. Jay shares research-backed insights into why we experience these feelings, from the Dunning-Kruger effect to the brain’s natural tendency to protect us from risk. But self-doubt doesn’t have to hold us back. Jay lays out seven strategies to move through imposter syndrome. From recognizing how self-doubt impacts the brain to reframing negative thoughts, preparing for success, and celebrating small wins, he offers practical ways to shift our mindset. Challenge of the Week: Validate your self-doubt. When high-stakes moments hit—before a big meeting or tough decision—pause and acknowledge it. Tell yourself: “I’m nervous because this matters. It’s scary, but that doesn’t mean I’m not good enough. Feeling this way is normal.” Your doubt is real, but it doesn’t define you. It might even be pushing you to prepare better. This week, when doubt shows up, recognize it, accept it, and move forward anyway. *** To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods. We talk about: How imposter syndrome develops and why high achievers are more likely to experience it. The connection between self-doubt and the brain’s instinct to protect us from failure.

  • 490. Beyond Goal Setting: The Relationship That Makes Success Inevitable

    490. Beyond Goal Setting: The Relationship That Makes Success Inevitable
    Feb 3 2025
    It’s February, and love is in the air—but are you in love with your goals? In this Valentine’s-themed episode, Jay Papasan dives into a transformative way of thinking about goals: treating them as a relationship rather than a simple task list. He explores how most goal-setting systems fail because they skip the “dating” phase and rush straight into commitment, leaving you disengaged and directionless. The solution is surprisingly simple. By dedicating just 30 minutes each week to review, reflect, and set intentions, you can maintain a strong connection with your goals. Jay highlights a powerful tool called the 411: a one-page system that aligns your weekly, monthly, and annual goals. He also shares personal anecdotes, like how weekly date nights with his wife strengthened their marriage, to emphasize the power of small, consistent habits over time. The same principle applies to your goals. Start building a relationship with your goals today—your future self will thank you. Challenge of the Week: Time to start dating your goals! Block off 30 minutes on your calendar every week for a goal check-in. Use this time to review your progress, evaluate what’s working, and set intentions for the week ahead. Consistency is the key to staying in love with your goals and achieving extraordinary results. *** To learn more, and for the complete show notes, visit: the1thing.com/pods. We talk about: How having a relationship with your goals prevents goal drift and keeps you on track Why regular, 30-minute weekly check-ins build accountability and ownership of your progress How the 411 system aligns your weekly, monthly, and annual goals with your larger purpose and values Links & Tools from This Episode: Free Resources Want to be a guest or share feedback?
