#6 - Michael's List of Intents for 2020 (and How He’ll Achieve Each)
Welcome to “The Elements of Being” podcast, where I dissect and explore the minds and habits of filmmakers, writers, and industry icons. Essentially, we learn what makes them flip the switch to achieve great feats, goals, and milestones and a chance to geek out over the psychology behind human behavior.
Today, we explore the elements of being….me. There is only one chair in this episode and Ill breakdown my 18 intents or resolutions for 2020. It is the list of lists to direct my behaviors and thoughts at the beginning of the new decade. I'll share my philosophical roots and give you a sneak preview into my day-to-day life. In many ways, this is a brief introduction to me and it most likely frames every interview you hear here now and beyond on this podcast.
So, who am I? I’ve been a personal trainer and author who has helped personal training clients lose over 3,000 lbs and transform their day-to-day approach since 2005! My first book Redefine Yourself: The Simple Guide to Happiness was my first effort into the writing world and I will begin a second book-a treatise on rewriting the systems/processes of your life as well as effectively integrating a "non-negotiable" mindset into goal strategy. Recently I’ve been named on Modern Luxury's "It List", as well as served as the fitness expert on the Biggest Loser/MSN Chicago tour and The Whitney Reynolds Show on PBS. I have also over 18,000 hours of one-on-one personal training experience (and really don’t know where that time has gone).
What else do you need to know about me? I’m intrigued by the mindset behind human behavior just as much as I am by how people achieve what they do. I’m obsessed with efficiency, but I have spent the last decade bringing more awareness to my life while harnessing my never-ending energy and truly relaxing.
Specifically, I discuss:
-My efficiency/analytical mindset as I share my master list and break down how to achieve it
-How to transform your life with a focus on the minutiae of the day-to-day life
-My intents to trust my instinct more, increase the amount of sleeping, reading, and writing, change my environment to influence my productivity and joy, optimize my social, physical, and emotional well-being, and a few other nuggets

“Quit wasting away seconds, minutes, hours, days, years, and decades of life worrying about not being perfect, doing perfect, or acting perfect. Embrace your emotion and passion but bundle it into a positive adaptive package and act instead of stewing in your destructive emotion. Don't let the resentment, anger, hate, and worry prison your mind and distract you from the precious little life moments (even if those moments don't feel important).”
— Michael Moody, author of Redefine Yourself
