1135: Sandra Matz | How Algorithms Read and Reveal the Real You

James Clear (@JamesClear) believes that you do not rise to the level of your goals; you fall to the level of your systems. He is the creator of the Habits Academy and author of Atomic Habits: An Easy and Proven Way to Build Good Habits and Break Bad Ones. What We Discuss with James Clear: How a near-death experience began James' exploration in leveraging tiny habits for giant outcomes. The difference between systems and goals and which one you should commit yourself to if you want results. What bamboo, cancer, and a winning Olympic coach can teach us about little changes that amount to a lot. Why the way you behave depends on the type of person you believe yourself to be -- and what you can do to modify this belief for the better. What it takes to break bad habits while creating good ones without falling into the “fake it ‘til you make it” delusion. And much more... Like this show?

If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: Do the re-engagement scripts we recommend in Six-Minute Networking ever grow stale? Don't people notice when they receive the same lines every year to stay in touch? Is there a way to tame the emotional outbursts you have whenever you receive criticism -- even when it's constructive and warranted? How should you handle that old school friend who always says "yes" to a coffee but never, ever buys you one back? How do you look for another job while still employed when your current job leaves you so depressed, anxious, and emotionally drained? Is it reasonable to suspect that the person who left someone else to be with you might now be cheating on you with someone else? How can you help your star employee stop overextending personal care toward clients when you know she's already stressed out with her own problems that should be addressed? Even though it mathematically makes sense to invest when returns are higher than the interest rate on the debt you're trying to pay off, is it the right move? What can you do to make the most of an awkward intro to someone at the top of your field so you can turn it into a solid new professional connection?

Coss Marte (@CossMarte) is the founder and CEO of ConBody, a NYC-based fitness studio that hires formerly incarcerated individuals to teach fitness classes, and author of ConBody: The Revolutionary Bodyweight Prison Boot Camp, Born from an Extraordinary Story of Hope. What We Discuss with Coss Marte: How a 13-year-old immigrant from the Dominican Republic scaled up a $5 million per year drug business -- the Uber for cocaine. How Stephen King (probably not the one you're thinking of) brought this whole operation down, inadvertently leading to a domino effect of positive change beginning with Coss Marte. The power of mindset and fitness to stay sane and healthy behind bars -- where the odds are stacked overwhelmingly against personal improvement on any level. What Coss and ConBody Fitness are doing to help rehabilitate the incarcerated and break the cycle of recidivism so many fall into. How lessons learned from the illicit drug trade transferred to Coss' legitimate business and helped him build a bridge of understanding between the world's successful and its formerly incarcerated.

If you want us to answer your question, register your feedback, or tell your story on one of our upcoming weekly Feedback Friday episodes, drop us a line at friday@jordanharbinger.com. Now, let's dive in! On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss: How do you deal with constant negativity when you're surrounded by it almost 24/7? How do you keep yourself up to date with real-world issues, remove the noise or work around it, and decide what to focus on and when? Is there body language that can counteract your naturally intimidating appearance? How can you offer to correct someone's grammar without being offensive? Is there anything wrong with maintaining distance when you've fallen out of touch with some of the people in your network? Is it possible they became "weak and dormant ties" for a reason? If you don't have a degree, how can you market yourself in a way that will bypass the resume gatekeeper and at least get an interview? How do you make it clear to your friend that texting and driving endangers lives? As haggard old-timers, what is the number one thing we wish young people understood today? Moving from a small town to the big city and networking in an industry can be a huge adjustment. What tips do we have for making the transition?
