About this episode
Josiah Smith joins Mike Sinopoli to discuss the importance of taking action over merely having good intentions, sharing personal struggles and insights.
In this episode, Josiah Smith and I discuss a simple yet deep phrase: "Action Over Intention." We lay out our own struggles with taking action and sitting in the comfort of intentions and the deep rooted internal battles that keep us stuck. Joe uses examples from his career, past physique competitions, and iron man training to elaborate on the subject. We also review the top aspects of life where people will sit in intent and constructively suggest the practices on how to move forward with purposeful action. Huge thanks to Joe for opening up on this recording. Nothing but the utmost respect for this guy as a human and long-time friend.
