Chapters
It is the manifestation of where you're putting your focus towards, your attention towards. And so you reroute, you move them in a different direction. This is not true. Even the things that you may feel like you can control, a lot of that is not true. Like, I can't control how much money I make because the boss did this. That means nothing for your future, for your life. You're, you're, you're designed to win, to overcome, to be the head and not the tail, to be prosperous. You are designed to live on top of the mountain, not deep low in the valley somewhere at the lowest pit. You're not designed for that. Recognize that it's not true. And then the third thing is, is very simple. Change your state in the moment. Reroute your thoughts. See, the changing of your state has to be done because we're on and off. And let me just say, I get in low states too. I think we all do. But it's recognizing it. And the more you can recognize it and change it, because we're moving in and out of states all day long sometimes, or all week long, all month long, all year long. Okay, we're moving in and out of different, different states.
