Today, let’s welcome Rob Dial, host of the Mindset Mentor Podcast and author of “Level Up.”
This engaging episode delves into the role of fear in holding people back, distinguishing between primal fears (like pain and death) and intellectual fears (like failure and rejection). Rob offers strategies to overcome these fears by focusing on positive outcomes instead of negative possibilities. Together, Rob and Jay explore the topic of procrastination, with Rob emphasizing the importance of having a strong “why” to drive motivation and action.
Rob reflects on his spiritual journey and how silence and introspection have helped him find peace and purpose. He also shares the key lesson he has learned: what we seek externally is often something we need to find within ourselves

Wow, wonderful
Soo this podcast is not for those who are not successful
Absolutely spot on! I used to set goals but would get easily discouraged when I didn’t see immediate results.
I found that laughter often helps in these moments, as humor can lighten the mood and provide perspective. I remember when I joined the Sense of Humor Improvement Program by Habit10x, and it taught me that humor isn’t just about telling jokes; it’s about building connections.
Stay persistent and keep smiling—sometimes, laughter is the best motivation to keep going!
