• Ep 390: Escaping the Figure Life Out Paradox

  Start Your Transformation Now  Are you stuck trying to “figure life out” before taking your next step? In this episode, Jim Fortin unpacks the illusion behind this common mindset and reveals why overthinking keeps so many people trapped in a cycle of confusion, frustration, and inaction. Through real-life stories and his own experience, Jim explains why waiting for clarity often leads nowhere—and how taking inspired action is the true path to freedom and fulfillment.  Jim explores the psychological trap of needing all the answers before moving forward, a mindset that holds countless people in place. He introduces a powerful shift: clarity doesn’t come before action—it comes because of it. Whether you’re trying to make a big life move or simply feel stuck, this episode offers the key to break free from the paradox and reclaim your momentum.  If you’ve spent far too long trying to think your way to clarity, this episode is the wake-up call to stop overthinking and start living.  What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  Why Trying to “Figure It Out” Doesn’t Work (01:05) Jim explains why most people stay stuck not because they can’t move, but because they believe they need all the answers before doing so.  John’s Story: The Paralysis of Overthinking (03:00) A powerful example of how overthinking—and the need for certainty—can keep someone stagnant for years.  The Real Solution: Action Creates Clarity (06:45) Jim shares the philosophy “something leads to something” and shows how taking any action can unlock new opportunities and awareness.  How to Make Calculated, Inspired Risks (10:30) Jim contrasts reckless risk with intuitive, aligned decision-making—and how to know the difference.  When Analytical Thinking Becomes the Enemy (17:50) A discussion on why too much thinking actually blocks intuition, inspiration, and growth.  The Heart-Led Way to Move Forward (23:40) Jim introduces a more effective approach to decision-making—one guided by joy, peace, and your inner knowing.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You don’t need to “figure it all out” to start moving forward. In fact, the longer you wait for perfect clarity, the further you drift from the life you want. Clarity is born from action—not thought. Trust that taking one small, inspired step will reveal the next. Life always supports movement. And remember: everything always has been, is now, and always will be fine.  Let’s Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

• Ep 389: Throwback to Ep81: You Cannot Outperform Yourself

  Start Your Transformation Now⁠  How often have you set goals or wanted something badly only to find that you fail over and over in achieving it? If you can say yes to the line above, you’re not alone, this is the pattern for most people and the cause is simple, people are setting goals for things that are not in their self-image. People are trying to perform at levels that are outside their self-image and subconscious identity. Many years ago I remember hearing the motivational speaker Les Brown said, “You cannot operate outside of the context of the vision you have for yourself.” Which basically means, you cannot be, do or have what you are not. In this episode I talk about:[1:24] What your self-image is and how it was created[2:21] The cycle of self-identity reinforcement[5:57] The illusion of self-image[15:53] Why you’ll never live up to your full potential[27:22] How to reverse engineer your life from the inside out[31:01] And, How nothing in your life will change until you change There’s an old Tibetan saying, “What you are on the inside is what you are on the outside.” If you want more in your life you must BE more in life. There is absolutely no escape from this concept. You must first be it in your mind before you can have it in your life. Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You cannot outperform yourself!

• Ep 388: Being a Zero Limit Person pt.4

  Start Your Transformation Now  What would your life look like if you knew—without a doubt—that you were unstoppable? In part four of the Zero Limit Person series, Jim Fortin explores the final core identity in the series: “I Am Unstoppable Power.” Building on the previous episodes that unpacked “I Am Unlimited Source,” “I Am a Supreme Being,” and “I Am Infinite Abundance,” this powerful conclusion helps listeners strip away ego, doubt, and conditioning to reclaim their inherent, unlimited power.  Jim challenges the identity most people live from—one rooted in limitation, lack, and unworthiness—and replaces it with the truth of who we really are: reflections of infinite source. He dives into how our early social conditioning, false beliefs about worth, and ego attachments stop us from recognizing our true identity. Through examples, reflections, and practical insights, Jim reveals how unstoppable power isn’t something to achieve; it’s something to remember, feel, and live from.  If you’re ready to stop working from desperation and start aligning with the truth of who you are, this episode is your call to return to your natural state—limitless, powerful, and free.  What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  The Real Reason You Feel “Stuck” (02:20) Jim breaks down how ego and early social conditioning bury our awareness of our true, unstoppable power.  Why “Wanting” Blocks Manifestation (09:30) Desire comes from lack. Jim explains why recognizing your power is the key to manifesting what you want.  How to Begin Living from Your True Power (14:50) It’s not about achieving more—it’s about remembering that the power already lives in you.  Stop Settling and Start Aligning (19:40) Jim poses the question: If you knew you were unstoppable, would you still settle for less in life?  Rewriting Your Identity Through Feeling (26:30) Learn how feeling the truth of your power—not just thinking it—is what rewires your internal state.  The Morning Practice That Changes Everything (31:50) Jim shares a 5-minute daily practice to anchor your awareness in your identity as unstoppable power.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You don’t have to become unstoppable power—you already are. You are a reflection of source, of divine intelligence, of the same force that governs the universe. That means being unstoppable isn’t extraordinary—it’s natural. But it requires remembering. Strip away the layers of ego, doubt, and history that tell you otherwise. Sit with the truth: I am unstoppable power. Feel it. Live it. And let it guide every choice, every action, and every manifestation from this day forward.  Mentioned Resources Being A Zero Limit Person Being A Zero Limit Person, Part 2 Being A Zero Limit Person, Part 3 Let’s Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

• Ep 387: Throwback to Ep11: The Real Reason You Never Have Enough Time To Do All That You Want To

  ⁠Start Your Transformation Now If you’re like most people you go through your days never having enough time, always playing “catch up” and wondering what you can do differently to get things done, right? If this is you, then you’re going to love this podcast episode because getting everything done that you need to is not about managing your time, it’s about prioritizing your commitments and values. When you know what you value most and what you’re committed to, it’s then easy to understand how you need to prioritize your time. If you don’t know what you’re committed to you don’t know how you’re choosing and when you don’t know how you’re choosing you’re mismanaging your time. Actually, the reason most people never have enough time is because they manage their day by time, and when you manage your day by time, you’ll never have enough time. Look at your own life and you’ll probably find that to be true. If you want to “catch up” and be productive and get things done then you must start managing your time by commitments and values. In this episode I discuss:Managing your time is no longer about the clockWhenever you manage your time by time or circumstance, you will never have enough timePrioritize your time, energy, and effort to get you to bigger long-term rewards, than chasing your tail every single dayWhat am I committed to? Whatever you are committed to is what you want to prioritizeIf you don’t know what you are committed to, you don’t know how you’re choosing, then you do not know how you are investing or squandering your timeWhatever you’re in the habit of, is how you invest your timeWhat am I committed to and who do I have to BE to make it happen Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Instead of working from the clock, and by the clock, where you want to start working from is, what am I committed to?

• Ep 386: Being a Zero Limit Person pt.3

  Start Your Transformation Now What if you’re not just capable of abundance—but are abundance itself? In part three of the Zero Limit Person series, Jim Fortin invites listeners to challenge everything they’ve been taught about prosperity and manifestation. This episode, I Am Infinite Abundance, unpacks the powerful truth that abundance isn’t something to chase—it’s something to know, embody, and live from.  Jim takes a bold stance against the noise and distraction of modern life that keeps us externally focused and disconnected from our true nature. Through clear examples and deep reflection, he explains why most people work backwards in life—believing they must "attract" abundance rather than realizing they already are it. He reveals how inner alignment with infinite source energy, not outer action, is the true key to prosperity.  If you’ve ever struggled with money, worth, or success, this episode is your invitation to stop chasing and start remembering who you really are.  What You’ll Discover in This Episode:  You Are Infinite Abundance, Not Just a Magnet for It (02:20) Jim explains the critical difference between attracting abundance and being abundance.  The Content vs. Context Distinction (05:30) Why most people fail to transform despite consuming content—and how to shift into real integration.  Why Silence Is the Gateway to Abundance (08:45) Jim shares a powerful self-reflection exercise and explains why so many fear being alone with themselves.  The Truth About Manifestation and Internal State (16:15) A compelling story about two massage therapists and how your being shapes your abundance—not your doing.  The Universe Doesn't Judge—It Responds (30:00) Even polarizing figures like Trump channel abundance. Why? Because they identify with it.  Money Is a Mirror of Your Inner Reality (35:30) Jim breaks down how fear repels abundance and why love and alignment are the true attractors.  Claim Your Identity as Source (40:48) You don’t become infinite abundance—you are it. It’s time to remember.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You are not separate from abundance. You are not something broken that needs fixing. You are consciousness, divine mind, infinite source—expressing through human form. The illusion of lack is just that: an illusion. When you stop chasing and start knowing, life responds. Infinite abundance isn’t something you “get.” It’s what you are. Remember this truth, live from this truth, and everything changes. Stop asking. Start being.  Mentioned Resources Being A Zero Limit Person Being A Zero Limit Person, Part 2 Let’s Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.
