Listen "Are You Living a Reported Life or a Created Life?"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Mindful Paths, hosts Nick Day and Hari Kalymnios explore one of the most overlooked shifts in modern living: moving from a reported life to a created life.Are you simply reporting your day as it happens, or intentionally creating it? Can simple, portable mindfulness habits outperform complex gadget-heavy routines?From losing routine anchors to building travel-proof practices, Nick and Hari unpack the mindset, single-tasking strategies, and micro-rituals that help you design your mornings, protect attention, and let go when plans change.They also discuss how to separate productivity hype from habits that actually stick, why flexible systems beat motivation, and why the foundations of health like sleep, movement, sunlight, and recovery still do 95% of the work.Connect with Nick Day on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickday/ Transformational Coaching with Nick or Hari Enquiries: [email protected] Connect with Hari Kalymnios on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harikalymnios/Visit: https://harikalymnios.com 00:00 Intro & Preview02:09 Cold exposure and Breath04:49 One-minute breath reset rule08:59 Reported life vs created life10:38 Stacking vs single-tasking14:41 Portable morning ritual16:26 What a “created life” looks like18:38 Anchors at begin/end of day22:40 RAF: Rules Allow Freedom27:50 When plans slip37:41 Create space for reflection41:35 Phone boundaries & Simple constraints
