Short motivational talk (YouTube video) by Chris Collins about the importance of actively working on your mindset each morning. The speaker urges people to spend dedicated time early in the day on activities that build mindset (reviewing goals/why, reading, meditating, praying) and to avoid dwelling on negative news which can sap focus and energy.
It's amazing how little time people spend working on their mindset every day. Yeah, I just. I was with a group. We had a thousand people. I was giving a speech. Good, high energy group. And you asked the question, how much time do you spend every morning, preferably in the morning, before your head gets screwed up, working on your mindset, doing something to build your mindset, whether it's reviewing goals, reviewing your why, listening to something inspirational based on whatever your spiritual beliefs are, maybe reading something, meditating, praying. What do you do early in the day to build your mindset? Yeah, and the question is mostly nothing. People leave their mindset up for grabs. Now, they may have talent, they may have knowledge, but if the mindset's not right, if you're not really dialed in and focused, that stuff's not going to be leveraged. It's not going to be maximized. And so you got to make time to work on the mindset. I don't care what your position is. And that's part of what reading is about. Staying fresh, staying relevant, staying energized. And I like it early in the day because I like to burst into the day. I don't like to start the day in neutral. I don't watch a lot of news. You know, don't read the paper. They'll don't. I'll scan the headlines on Twitter and see what's in the news. I don't dwell on it. I don't want to be ignorant of what's going on, but I don't want to be rehearsing that nonsense, that garbage, those murders or the fires or the earthquakes, whatever the famine in my mind over and over that day. That's not productive. You got to work on mindset. Most people don't. It's a great edge if you do.
