HOW TO CHANGE YOUR MINDSET - INSTANTLY!

Today I want to talk about how to change your mindset instantly. And I want to talk about a.

Really quick quote that one of my.

Very first mentors named Hal Elrod shared with me. And the quote is, can't change it. See, there's a lot of things that we wish we could control. There's a lot of things that we wish were different, but a lot of those things we can't control at all.

And so the question you have to.

Ask yourself is, if I can't control.

It, why am I letting it stress me out? Why am I letting it dictate the way that I feel today?

And a perfect example of this is traffic. I hate traffic. I used to hate traffic even more.

And when I would be in traffic and I would be thinking about how late I would be, I would squeeze my steering wheel as hard as I possibly could till I could see the white in my knuckles.

And as you can see, my knuckles are pretty white anyways because I'm an extremely Irish person.

But I could see even more white in my knuckles.

And I would get so pissed off and I would be so infuriated of why is this traffic here? I'm gonna be late and all of these things.

And then I realized that I can't change the traffic, but what I can change is the ride to my destination. See, I'm going to get to my destination either way, whether I'm extremely furious.

The entire time that I'm driving or.

I have a great ride.

And so the reason why this was a very life changing topic for me was because it got me to stop.

Trying to control things that I can't control.

It got me to learn to appreciate things like being in traffic.

Look, I'm in traffic.

I can listen to music that I love. I can look up and see the beautiful sky.

If it's raining, I can see the rain coming down and the sound that it makes.

There's a lot of things to appreciate. The fact that I'm actually in my own car, those are all things to appreciate. I can't change the fact that there's traffic in front of me.

That.

But what I can change is my mindset on my ride to my destination.

So what I want you to take.

From this is this. You're going to arrive either way, but you're in control of whether you're going to arrive really pissed off and infuriated, having put your body through stress or whether you're going to arrive with a smile on your face. The decision is yours. Make sure that you make the right one.
