And, um, if you, if you really wanted to know more about how you can holistically create health and wellness for you and your family members, then follow my channel. So let's begin, uh, on today's topic. So how you can avoid this one single mistake. Can anyone tell me in the chat box or in the comment section, what is the one of the biggest challenge you're facing with your, uh, weight loss journey right now? The one of the biggest challenge most of the people follow is, uh, faces the consistency. And you try to achieve certain kind of a goal by following a certain kind of a plan, and once you achieve it, you go back to your old patterns, and this pattern will repeat again and again. How many of you here last 5 to 10 years you lost your weight, but you are somewhere not able to hold that, whichever the lost weight, for a longer period of time? You're not able to sustain your weight loss for a longer period of time. How many of you are going through this challenge? This video is for— especially for them who are struggling to sustain their weight loss and who are also not able to even get into that desired weight loss goal. So what is that one of the biggest mistake is? 90% of the time, people are only focusing on two things: your diet and exercise. So those are the very fundamental thing, but there is one thing which you are missing in this journey. So just following a diet and exercise will alone can get you a temporary results when you don't have a long-term vision, when you don't focus on your CEO of your life who is actually driving for you to take actions. You heard it right, everyone has a CEO of life. Who is the CEO of life? Is your mind. So until and unless you don't train your mind to work towards what is a goal you wanted to achieve, you will not be able to create the long-lasting weight loss or a long-lasting health and fitness for rest of your life. So what exactly happening with your journey is 90% of the time your actions are derived by 3 important aspects, that is thoughts, beliefs, and feelings. These are the 3 things are defining how you can take action, how long you can take action, and how long you can sustain your weight loss journey will be defined. So tell me one thing, how many of you here struggled with a weight loss journey previously? You followed a diet, you followed exercise, you got a result or you did not got a result. What kind of a mindset you've been created? What kind of a thought process? What kind of a belief system you're carrying? What kind of feelings you start experiencing the moment you start about losing weight. This is a very fundamental thing. Until and unless you don't change these 3 things, there is no way you can create lifetime weight loss results, or you cannot maintain that weight for rest of your life. So in this video, we're going to talk about a 3-step process, how you can redefine these 3 things— your thoughts, beliefs, and feelings— and how you can change your identity. How many of you here believe the same old actions, the same old, uh, your behaviors, and the same old mindset can only get you to the old result? Until and unless your mindset doesn't change, until and unless your thoughts doesn't change, until and unless the body feelings doesn't change, you will not be able to attain the goal. You can force your journey for a certain period of time. After that, your mind go back to the old memories and old habits. That is the whole reason why 90% of the people— you can go and search in Google, tell me how many people are failing to hold or maintain their weight loss journey. You will be surprised by the number. 80-90% of the people are losing weight, and within 5 years they're gaining back all the weight whatever they have achieved. The reason is they are not changing the identity. They're not changing their current thought process. So what exactly happening in here is, so every single time any action you are doing, okay, so it is all derived by the thought. The thought is allowing you to create some kind of feelings in your body. Those feelings are generating certain kind of results by the actions, whatever you're taking over a period of time. The thought the feeling and the action and the end result. If it is a positive, you create a positive self-belief. If it is a negative, you're creating a negative self-belief. That is the whole reason the person who starts at the first time a weight loss journey, it will be easy for him to lose. But a person who failed 3 to 4 or 5 to 6 times, it is literally difficult to lose weight because you are already created a strong wall in your mind that losing weight is impossible. I already failed more than multiple times, and it is not my cup of tea. That is the whole reason there is always a self-voice goes on in your mind. When you want to get up from the bed, you always click on the snooze button. You want to eat a healthy meal, but you go to your table and you'll think, okay, let's do it, let's see after 3, 6 months. There's only one life, uh, there's only one life, let me enjoy the food. That is the only reason you know that you have been sitting for long hours, you are not taking any action to move more. Because until and unless you don't tune your mindset— for example, your computer, how your computer is working, your computer is like your body. But what is operating system? Can you run your laptop or your computer without operating system? The laptop is waste of use. The same way, in your body, in your body, the mind is driving it. The problem is the operating system which is running here is is working against you. You are giving a command to say get fit, but in your mind is already registered that I'm already fat. So until and unless you don't change this vocabulary, you don't upgrade this particular OS which is going on in your mind, until and unless you don't change that, you cannot achieve the lifetime results. How you can shift this? There are a 3-step process you can shift this particular thing. The first and foremost thing what you need to do is You need to change, identify your existing limiting beliefs, existing thoughts, what is there, and existing feelings, what exactly you feel when you think about your current body and existing failures, whatever, whatever it is. Write down all these 3 things: all your thoughts, all the negative vocabulary you use on a day-to-day around your health, all your belief systems like, uh, diet is difficult, I cannot exercise, I don't have a time, All the negative things what you are writing down. The third important thing is all the feelings. Whenever you think about doing a weight loss journey, what kind of feelings you get? It— you feel angry, you feel frustrated, you feel, um, that it is not possible, and you have that anxious feelings, you have fear of failure. What exactly? So write down all these things in a piece of paper. So what you need to do once you write down You can do step number 2, which is called a mind cleanse, mind cleanse letter. And you need to do the next one is burning, burning that particular thing which you put on a paper. So what you need to do, second step, take out that paper, burn in front of your eyes, feel that all the emotions have gone away from you. All your thoughts, all your feelings, all your belief systems, you burnt in front of it. It is one of the powerful techniques. It's called a memory dump. And you're literally transferring your thoughts into a paper and you're burning it. Your mind believes that it is gone, but your job is not done. It is still pending. Once you do that, the third important step is reconditioning your brain with positive and empowering thoughts. So you need to upgrade the operating system. Right now what you did is you removed old operating system and you need to implant the new operating system. What kind of a body you want? What kind of identity you want to carry, what kind of thoughts you want to believe, what kind of body type you wanted to bring. So you need to create those by doing multiple steps. First thing, what you need to write down is I want you to write down a new vocabulary, what exactly you want to achieve. Stop saying what you don't want. Stop condemning and criticizing yourself. Start talking positive about what exactly you want to achieve. That is the first step. The second step, see what kind of feelings you want to create by achieving that particular goal. For example, whenever you write this positive empowering thought, every thought or a belief, the positive belief you wanted to implant, you should always end with the feeling. For example, I am fit, I feel energetic and amazing. I am completely healthy and happy and living a, living a great health. Then you can write down with the feeling, I feel amazing and awesome. The same way, I am already fit, I have a body like athlete, I have a fit body like athlete, I am a super fit dad, I am a super fit mom, and I am easily able to do multiple tasks so effortlessly, and end with the feelings. And the last important thing is you can also write down the action-based affirmations, how your actions want to be. I am so easily, effortlessly exercise every single day. I'm following healthy meals every single day. So write down all these 3 kind of affirmations. So every— your thought affirmations, your belief affirmations, these 2 will have a feeling attached to it, your emotion attached to it. How do you want to feel? Because what happened with so long from last 20 years, 30 years, you've been mastered these negative thoughts, and this— your body has already learned some kind of a emotion, feeling attached to it. That's why it is very easy not to exercise, always give excuse, because your body has trained emotion. Because when your mind and body gets connected, right, it is very difficult to break that particular pattern. 90% of your habits are formed with the mind and body connection. So if you want to reverse that, you need to do— write down a positive empowering affirmations and create, uh, and create them, the list. And what you can do is every single day, there are 2 times in a day, okay? You need to write, you need to say them with the high energy. First, what you need to do, 90% of the people, why affirmation doesn't work is the state of energy what you are affirming is very, very low. What you need to do if you wanted to do with the high energy, just do, um, 60 seconds jumping jacks or Do some kind of a crazy moves or some kind of a dance for any song. Raise your energy. Once you raise your energy, say it loudly and with a body, with a, with a body movements. You can say, I am fit and healthy, I'm at ideal body fat percentage of so-and-so percentage, I feel amazing, awesome. So keep incantation, keep incanting. So every single day, the best time to do these affirmations repeatedly is 2 times. One is immediately after you get up, 1 to 2 hours from the time you get up, because you are so close to your subconscious mind to insert that every single day you are updating your operating system. Okay, so it is— so there are 2 times it is very easily accessible. One is at the morning time, and the second is at the— before you go into sleep. These are the 2 timings you can incant these affirmations. Over a period of a time, what is happening is you are recreating the new— the identity which you want to create, the body you wanted to create from now itself. The moment you really started living with this new identity, automatically your diet and exercise will be like a piece of a cake. 90% of the time, what you're doing is, what you're doing is you are focusing on that diet and exercise, but you are missing the main part who's running and who is actually giving a commands to take action. But that CEO or that operating system is not aligned with what you want to achieve. Okay, so just to recap what you need to do. First thing is write down all the limiting beliefs, all the negative thoughts what you're going on, and all the negative feelings what is being your mastered. Write down in a piece of paper, burn that paper in front of your eyes. And the third step is start writing the new positive empowering beliefs, that new identity which you want to create. It could be a new version of it. I am already at ideal body fat percentage of so-and-so, or I'm already at ideal weight. 'Or I am already living a healthy and disease-free lifestyle.' Or 'I'm already living a—' For example, you have any kind of a health disease, don't use any negative words. Write down positive words. And once you write down your thought affirmations and your belief affirmations, add feelings to it. And also add action-based affirmations. Whatever actions you want to take, write down that as if you are doing it so effortlessly. And every single day, morning and evening, You can incantate with a high energy to recondition your mind. The moment your mind believes that you are already carrying that athletic body, you are carrying the dream version of yourself, believe me or not, your actions is going to be in automatic mode. That is how you can build those actions in autopilot mode. If you want to build your actions in autopilot mode, first tune your CEO. And upgrade your operating system so that you can achieve any kind of a goal so effortlessly. So the same procedure, you can use it for any goal you want to achieve in your life because you have so much of potential. You can create literally anything and everything. The only person who's stopping you is you. And you stopped upgrading your operating system. You are not tuning in your CEO. To make anything achieved in your life.
