Family. Coworkers. Influence and eadership are about the heart, not the throat.

Do this the next time you’re feeling down, stressed, or anything painful. It works.

One of the biggest mistakes you could ever make in your life—and how to prevent and reverse it. 👊

How do you change a bad emotion anytime, at will, on the dime? By introducing one word, not an affirmation.

There’s no such thing as a negative emotion if you know how to use it for good. Your emotions are not the enemy, they’re actually the advocate.

So here we are. It’s September 24th and the “Rapture” didn’t happen — again. WHY NOT?

The point was not to just silence one person, but to silence all of us. To get us to sit down, shut up, stand in line, drink the Kool-Aid, do what you’re told. Comply, comply, comply. That’s what it’s all about.

The thing that’s needed today more than ever is courage, because courage is the fundamental building block of anything you want to accomplish in your life and anything you want to do to persuade society. It takes courage to get out of your comfort zone and to try to influence other people to go in a certain direction.

And I’m not talking about social media influence, I’m talking about influencing society, because if you haven’t noticed, our society seems to be going to you know where in a handbag, and it’s not a Gucci.

Stand up, be courageous, don’t comply, don’t drink the Kool-Aid. Stand up and speak out. Do it with truth, do it with love, but whatever you do, stand up and speak out.

Master this and start moving forward in dramatic ways. ⬇️

There’s no such thing as a “ negative” emotion if you learn how to use it in positive ways.

1. Your emotions don’t occur in a void, a vacuum. They are the result of your experiences. They’re the result of how you interpret life — and they are the consequence of your deeply seated beliefs, thoughts, and self-talk.

2. You can’t stop your self-talk any more than you could stop breathing. You could put it on pause for a little bit, but eventually, you’re going to gasp and begin to talk to yourself again and again.

3. Your self-talk is a reflection of what you believe about yourself, what you believe about life, and your emotions fall right in line with those beliefs, those thoughts, and self-talk.

Start following your emotions back to the beliefs, thoughts, and self-talk that they originate from, and you will start moving forward. I believe in you!

Stop talking trash to yourself. You’ve been doing affirmations your whole life. That’s your problem. What you keep telling yourself is hurting you, holding you back.

When you do affirmations and you do them the right way, you actually have to show up, because a lot of people think it’s just about reciting the same thing over and over again and that will change their life. No, it won’t . . .

You don’t have a problem with whether or not affirmations work. You have a problem with doing affirmations that are wrong and when you do them you do them the wrong way.
