  • "Do more of what works" - Ep 321
    May 24 2025

    Episode Summary: “Five Steps to Success (That Are Hard to Do)”

    In this insightful episode of Inspiration Nation, Ryan Boniface and Jose Noya dive deep into a deceptively simple five-step formula for success shared by James Clear: “Decide what you want. Try until something works. Do more of what works. Stop what doesn’t. Repeat.” As Jose puts it, “Simple and hard”—a mantra that frames their conversation on perseverance, adapting through trial and error, and redefining success through consistency and gratitude. From the podcast’s humble beginnings to evolving content strategies across platforms, Jose shares personal milestones that illustrate how persistence and flexibility fuel real progress.

    Ryan adds philosophical weight, connecting the pursuit of success to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and challenging the notion that success must be extraordinary to be meaningful. “If everyone is successful, then no one is,” he reflects, emphasizing that success is subjective and rooted in personal fulfillment. Whether you’re building a brand, chasing a dream, or just trying to be better than yesterday, this episode offers both inspiration and a grounded roadmap forward.

    Quote of the Episode:
    “Simple and hard”—Jose Noya
    This captures the essence of the episode’s message: clarity in goals doesn't equal ease in execution, but the rewards lie in the journey.

Whether you're a leader, creator, or team member, this conversation is a potent reminder that real progress comes not from going it alone but from building with others.
