Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, we talk about the board-breaking exercise to release limiting beliefs and take a moment to celebrate how far you’ve come.

This is a reminder to look back at how far you’ve come. In this episode, we...

688 | Do You Wire Your Brain For Judgement?
Own Your Choices Own Your Life

I recently heard a quote on the Growth Day App with Brendon Bouchard, the link to try it out is below. In this episode, we discuss: 1) Judgments and decisions saturate people's lives. Most people scroll past 1000 posts a day which means you have wired your brain for judgment comparison and contempt 1000 times over on a minimum per day. This is with 1-2 hours of scrolling per day. 2) How can you become more intentional with your time...

685 | Belief Will Take You Further Than Talent
Own Your Choices Own Your Life
In this episode, we talk about how belief will take you further than talent. Even more, than this, it requires that you have belief to get started. It is our job to raise our beliefs to match our vision, not just the belief but also the identity of the person who can bring that vision to life. I heard this Henry Ford example, he could have said I can’t build cars because if they break down, we have no mechanic shops to fix them, no idea where we will make the tires or the parts to fix them, he could have said: “there’s no point in starting.” There has to come a moment where...
info_outlineIn this episode, I am sharing a quote I heard Tony Robbins say and it made me stop and really reflect on the word problems. “Every problem is a gift and without problems we would not grow and if we’re not growing we are not living” ~ Tony Robbins.
In this episode, we discuss:
1) There are problems which I would rather call obstacles, challenges, and difficulties. When you are stuck IN your problems it’s really hard to find your way out. Staying stuck in your problems, I visualize being trapped under them and that is when we give the word problems power over us. When you are able to gain perspective, you will see what you are there to learn or how you can grow through your challenges.
2) Our problems become the impetus to grow. Most of us don’t simply grow on our own, except in the areas where we have passion. But our problems come from all different aspects of our lives, because we are meant to grow in all areas of our lives.
3) With this mindset we are forced to adapt, to grow, to change, in order to meet these new challenges. That takes some strength, and a willingness to face the issue and resolve it. We learn more about ourselves in these times of challenges than we do when things are easy. We also don’t step up in our lives when we are in that comfort zone and things are “easy”. Without the challenges would we actually grow?
