— Dave Conway
What if one simple habit could transform the way you think, act, and achieve your goals?

Here’s what you’ll discover in this game-changing episode…
Key Takeaways from Episode 2:
1. The Number One Life-Changing Habit (0:01:05)
Most people assume their way through life, accepting their current circumstances as fixed reality. But the truth is, real change begins with curiosity. The habit of questioning is a powerful tool to help you become aware of your thinking patterns and challenge the beliefs holding you back.
2. How to Ask Yourself Better Questions (0:03:17)
Dave shares how he moved from a deeply frustrated mindset to one of rapid personal and financial growth by relentlessly questioning his own thoughts. Instead of assuming he couldn’t hit his 30-Day Year goal, he started asking: Why can’t I?What if it were possible? This shift opened doors he never saw before.
3. Becoming Ruthlessly Observational (0:05:33)
Most people are running outdated mental software, completely unaware of the thoughts influencing their actions. Dave discusses how he monitored his own thinking like a full-time job, realizing that 90% of his thoughts weren’t aligned with his goals. By observing your own inner dialogue, you can start eliminating self-sabotaging patterns and replacing them with empowering beliefs.
4. Renewing Your Ambitious Goals (0:10:01)
Dave covers the importance of holding the vision of your goal long enough for it to manifest. He reveals how he spent 31 months relentlessly pursuing his 30-Day Year goal without settling for less. Most people lower their targets when they don’t hit them immediately. Instead, Dave teaches the importance of renewing your big goal, again and again, until you achieve it!
5. The Power of Journaling and Self-Reflection (0:13:48)
Jacq shares how journaling helped her uncover her own mental patterns. Writing down what you love about yourself and what you truly want can be a breakthrough practice for self-awareness. This is a practical way to catch the unconscious beliefs limiting your success.
6. What IS Education… Really? (0:17:29)
Traditional education teaches us to memorize, repeat, and conform, but real learning comes from drawing out wisdom from within. Dave explains how Socratic questioning (learning through inquiry) is the key to expanding your mind beyond preconditioned limitations.
7. The Value in Belief Systems (0:25:12)
Instead of blindly accepting inherited beliefs, Dave made a radical decision: he put his entire belief system on a shelf for two years. This experiment allowed him to consciously choose the ideas that served him best, rather than unconsciously living by someone else’s rules.
8. Are You Stunting Your Growth? (0:34:03)
One of the biggest traps in personal growth is becoming too attached to your own beliefs and ideas. Dave explains how clinging to outdated ideas stunts growth, while staying open-minded leads to exponential breakthroughs. Ego keeps people stuck; humility allows them to evolve.
