Episode Description

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with award-winning author and global marketer Jobert E. Abueva to discuss his transformational book, The Janus Plan: A No-Resolutions Path to Begin Your Year with Intention. Ever wondered why 90% of New Year's resolutions crash and burn by "Quitter's Day"? What if the secret to breaking free from soul-crushing burnout isn't making more empty promises, but standing at life's thresholds with dual vision? From waking up immobilized in a Hong Kong hotel room at the peak of a high-flying corporate career to discovering the ancient wisdom of the two-faced Roman god Janus, Abueva reveals how confronting your past with brutal honesty can completely reshape your future.

🎯 What Listeners Will Learn
- The 6-Step Intentional Framework: How to cycle through Pondering the Past, Framing the Future, Nudging the Now, Cleaning & Clearing, Revealing & Ritualizing, and Revisiting & Reigniting to achieve lasting growth.
- The "Life Pie" Exercise: A method to map satisfaction across neglected life sectors like community, family, and personal passions rather than focusing narrowly on standard career or fitness metrics.
- Why Traditional Resolutions Fail: Why jumping straight into goal-setting without deep reflection leads to cycle repetition, and how to set sustainable, SMART goals instead.
- Overcoming Procrastination Through Environment: How targeting one long-neglected "junk space" or task unlocks mental momentum and lightens your psychological load.
- Global Renewal Rituals & Micro-Practices: How simple international clearing practices and daily micro-habits—like a 60-second morning gratitude list—keep long-term momentum alive.
