Welcome to Wednesday Warriors: The Personal Development Challenge!
Today we meet the hosts, Sebastian Jamshahi and Felipe Santamaria and run through what Personal Development means to us, and what our goals are for the podcast! Stay tuned!

Episode 1: Introduction

Today we speak about the importance of recognizing your strengths and weaknesses, and how these can help you get started on your personal development journey. 

Our guest today is Austin Farmer- a pre-vet student at Cornell University that speaks on his experiences with both strength and weakness through his athletic career, his desire to help others, and obstacles he's overcome along the way. 

QUOTE: "Sometimes you don't realize your own strength until you come face to face with your greatest weakness." -Susan Gale

CHALLENGE: Write down on a piece of paper, two STRENGTHS and two WEAKNESSES that you see in yourself. Be HONEST; no one has to see these but yourself.

Ep 2- Strenghts And Weaknesses

In today's episode, we interview Rodrigo Camara, as we talk about how to set goals and what kinds of goals we should be setting. 

Weekly Challenge: Write down one goal you have on a piece of paper. Then ask yourself? Is this a SMART goal? Good luck! 
Email us how you're doing with your goal at wednesdaywarriorspod@gmail.com

Smart Goals are:
Specific
Measurable
Achievable
Realistic
Timely

Episode 3- How Do I Set Goals?

In this week's episode, we speak with NYU student Rashed Rifat about how to plan and schedule yourself once you have established your goals! 

CHALLENGE: Break up tomorrow into 1 hour periods, and dedicate each section into a specific task. Make sure to give yourself more time than you expect a task will take you, and that some sections are dedicated to rest and relaxation! Be sure to completely focus on that task during the hour, whether it be answering emails, studying for a test coming up, working out, or calling to catch up with a friend. 

Email us at wednesdaywarriorspod@gmail.com and tell us how the challenge went for a chance be featured on upcoming episodes!

S1E4- Planning Your Journey

Last episode of Season 1!
Today we talk about just doing it, and learning how to seize opportunity, because it complements planning when things go unexpected. 

2 minute rule: If you're lazy or unmotivated to do something that you know is inherently good for you, just do it for 2 minutes and then you can quit. 

Challenge: JUMP out of bed tomorrow! It takes a big JUST DO IT mentality because we are all tired in the morning. 
Also, think about something you should do today in order to get closer to your goals. Even if you are really busy, you can set aside 2 minutes to get it done. 

Email us wednesdaywarriorspod@gmail.com, we want to hear how the challenges are going!

Episode 6- SZN 1 RECAP

WELCOME TO SEASON 2!
Today we start going into Accountability, which includes being TRUE to yourself. We talk about finding your WHY, your PURPOSE for living, and why it is important to personal development. The most important part of accountability comes from within YOU. 

See ya next Wednesday.

S2E1- What Is Your Why?

To hold yourself accountable, you have to learn to be the best boss you've ever had. How do you do that? Learn how to find your balance on the Work Hard, Play Hard mentality and honor your three identities: Past self, Present self, and Future self. 

This Week's CHALLENGE: Write down 3 values that you hold dear to yourself. A good boss knows their employees' values and works to honor them with every action they take.
