Episode Description

Most leaders want to change. Few do.

In this short walking episode, Dr. Jon Finn reveals why lasting change requires more than motivation — it demands the right Brain State.

You’ll learn:

• Why “behavior” isn’t just what you do — but what you think
• Why up to 100% of your actions are automatic (and how that traps you)
• How to break the willpower cycle and access your high-charge brain state
• And how AI tools can help you reduce cognitive overload and focus your energy where it matters most

🎧 Listen now and start thinking better, leading smarter — and finally making change stick.

Dr. Jon Finn introduces Step 2 of the Success Cycle—Planning with the Task Director—which helps connect daily Brain State optimization with meaningful long-term goals through a structured approach.

• Creating a FAM story (Future, Ambitious, Meaningful story) acts as a personal lighthouse guiding brain energy
• The power of connecting daily brain states to your 10-year vision through a structured approach
• Building motivation through tracking progress, managing stress, and creating self-fulfilling prophecies
• Identifying and strengthening six foundational areas: sleep, diet, exercise, stress management, confidence, and focus
• Mastering "Super Habits" like the 3-to-1 reflection that enhance multiple areas simultaneously
• Categorizing tasks as "ice cubes" (routine tasks for medium-charge states) or "ice sculptures" (complex tasks for high-charge states)
• Prioritizing tasks for the next 30 days to strategically allocate optimal brain states
• Maintaining the system through weekly reviews, a task inbox, and regular time estimate adjustments

• Brain state intelligence has become a critical skill in the AI era
• Most people are struggling with poor cognitive performance, signaled by brain fog, fatigue, and feeling overwhelmed
• Traditional coaching methods are failing to help people adapt to AI challenges
• Human AI Performance Psychology is a new approach created specifically for the AI era
• After a successful pilot, Dr. Finn announces training for certified Human AI Performance Psychology coaches
• This certification offers multiple career opportunities: becoming an AI leader, creating an AI-era business, or securing AI-resistant positions

Why do most performance psychology approaches fail to deliver lasting results? Dr. Jon Finn - creator of Human-AI Performance Psychology - tackles this challenging question head-on, revealing statistical evidence that even gold-standard talk therapies like CBT only help one in five people—with benefits typically fading within a year.

Drawing from three performance psychology degrees and extensive field experience with elite performers, Dr. Finn shares the four fundamental flaws in traditional coaching approaches that led him to develop the Habit Mechanic AI Edge system. This revolutionary framework has helped clients secure tangible results like circa $90,000 salary increases, and equity positions by becoming leaders in human-AI performance.

The breakthrough lies in understanding Brain States first, creating both long-term and daily strategic plans, and implementing a comprehensive behavioral automation system. Unlike conventional approaches that offer disconnected tips and tricks, this system treats personal performance with the same strategic seriousness businesses apply to their planning processes. The result is a four-step AI-Edge Success Cycle that addresses the growing complexity and overwhelm of our AI-enhanced world.

Most remarkably, Dr. Finn's and his team's approach doesn't require abandoning everything you've tried before—it provides a better container that amplifies existing tools and adds "super boosters" to make them stick. As he eloquently puts it, "You're only ever one Brain State habit away" from transformation.

In this groundbreaking episode, Dr. Jon Finn introduces Human-AI Performance Psychology, the revolutionary field he created and founded to address our most urgent challenge: optimizing human performance in the AI era.

As the originator and founder of this new discipline, Dr. Finn shares the pioneering frameworks he's developed through 25 years of research and work with over 20,000 people. His proprietary Three Brain States model explains why traditional approaches to performance improvement fail, especially in our AI-augmented world.

Discover how your brain's energy states—Recharge, Medium Charge, and High Charge—determine your success, and why 98% of human behavior comes from habits, not knowledge. Dr. Finn reveals his Success Cycle methodology that helps professionals transform their relationship with AI tools from overwhelming to empowering.

Whether you're a senior leader navigating digital transformation, a middle manager building high-performing teams, or an individual seeking to thrive amidst technological change, this episode provides the science-backed insights that only the founder of Human-AI Performance Psychology can deliver:

• Amplify High Charge thinking through AI collaboration
• Automate Medium Charge tasks efficiently
• Enhance recovery and reduce stress through optimized brain states

The gap between those who master their Brain States and those who don't is widening daily. Will you be one of the pioneers who leads in the AI era?

Unlocking peak mental performance in the AI era requires understanding exactly how your brain functions throughout the day. In this enlightening episode, Dr. Jon Finn reveals the first critical step of the Success Cycle—measuring your brain states—and explains why this skill will become humanity's most valuable asset.

Your brain operates like a solar-powered lighthouse, cycling through three distinct states: Recharge (recovery mode), Medium Charge (routine task mode), and High Charge (premium performance mode). Most professionals achieve only 1-2 hours of high-impact work daily, with the rest consumed by routine tasks. But by understanding your brain's natural rhythms and optimizing them, you can consistently achieve 5-6+ hours of high-impact work while actually working less overall.

Dr. Finn introduces the Human AI Readiness Brain State Assessment, a proven tool measuring fifteen key dimensions of your cognitive performance. Your score reveals your current profile: Cross-to-Bear (losing 4-5 hours of premium thinking daily), Jagged Jewel (losing 2-4 hours), or Arrowhead (losing 1-3 hours). This measurement forms the foundation upon which the entire Success Cycle builds.

Traditional approaches to improving performance fall dramatically short in the AI era. A comprehensive study of over 52,000 people showed that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy—considered the gold standard—fails to produce meaningful improvement for 58% of participants. The fundamental problem? These approaches focus on providing knowledge rather than building habits, when research shows 98-100% of human behavior comes from habits, not from knowing what we should do.

The Success Cycle offers something fundamentally different—a systematic approach based on a proprietary nine-factor habit mechanic system. Just as sports science revolutionized athletics by revealing the science behind peak physical performance, understanding brain states will transform how we work with AI. Ready to measure your brain states and begin optimizing your performance? This episode gives you everything you need to take that crucial first step.
