Hey everyone, Jackson read here and welcome back to less dopamine,

designed to help you ditch the distractions, level up your focus,
and unlock your full potential. Today's topic embracing your true potential,
something we all crave but sometimes struggle to grasp. Ever,
feel like you're just skimming the surface of who you

(00:21):
could be, Like there's this amazing masterpiece hidden inside waiting
to burst onto the scene. Well, let me tell you
that masterpiece is real and it's calling for your attention.
We're living in a world where instant gratification reigns supreme
Notification's pinging, endless scroll dopamine hits every few seconds. It's
enough to make your brain feel like it's on overdrive.

(00:44):
But what about the slow burn? What about that deep
satisfaction that comes from honing your skills, pursuing your passions,
and becoming the best version of yourself. That's where true
potential shines. Here are five key takeaways to help you

truly matters to you creativity, connection, learning, helping others. Once

(01:06):
you know your core values, they become your compass, guiding
your decisions and actions towards a life that feels authentic
and fulfilling. You're not just chasing some random goal. You're
moving towards something meaningful, something that resonates with your deepest self. Secondly,
ditch the comparison game. Seriously, stop comparing yourself to others.
It's a recipe for frustration and self doubt. Everyone's on

(01:29):
their own journey with unique strengths, talents, and timelines. Focus
on your own path, celebrate your wins, no matter how small,
and learn from any setbacks. Remember you're in competition with yourself,
not anyone else. Thirdly, step outside your comfort zone. Growth
happens when we challenge ourselves, embrace the unknown, and push

(01:49):
beyond our perceived limitations. It might feel scary at first,
but trust me, those uncomfortable moments often lead to the
most incredible breakthroughs. You'll discover hidden talentance, build resilience, and
gain a sense of accomplishment that comes from conquering fear. Fourthly,
surround yourself with supportive people. Your tribe matters. Connect with

(02:09):
individuals who inspire you, encourage your growth, and celebrate your successes.
Seek out mentors, join communities aligned with your passions, and
build relationships that uplift and empower you. Remember, we rise
by lifting others. Finally, cultivate a mindset of gratitude. Take
time each day to appreciate the good things in your life,
your health, your loved ones, your experiences, even the small

(02:33):
everyday moments. When you cultivate a grateful heart, it shifts
your perspective, opens up new possibilities, and fuels your motivation
to keep striving for greatness. Think about a time when
you felt truly alive, engaged, and fulfilled. Maybe it was
a moment of creative flow, a challenging project you successfully completed,
are simply spending quality time with loved ones. Now ask yourself,

(02:56):
how can you bring more of that feeling into your
everyday life. Picture this, You're at work tackling a project
with passion and focus. Your mind is sharp, your creativity
is flowing, and you feel a sense of purpose driving
every action. You leave work energized, eager to connect with
friends and family, knowing you're making a positive impact on
the world. That's the power of embracing your true potential.

(03:19):
It's not about becoming someone else or achieving some arbitrary goal.
It's about aligning your actions with your values, pursuing what
truly matters, and living a life that feels authentically yours.
So here's your action step for today. Identify one small
thing you can do this week to move closer to
your dreams. Maybe it's taking that creative writing class you've

The Burden

The Burden

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
