Using The Power of The Mind To Your Advantage

The reason we don’t achieve our biggest goals and dreams is NOT that we don’t have enough knowledge.
It’s NOT that we aren’t smart enough or good enough to be great.
Simply put, the biggest reason we
hold ourselves back is... fear.

And what does fear mean? It means the anticipation of pain
… What if things go wrong?
… What if I fail?
… What if I get hurt?
… What will this (insert the name of the person you love) think?
And so on...

This fear-based thinking is created by your mind.
But why would your mind do that to you? Isn’t it there to help you succeed?

Surprisingly the answer is NO.
Your mind has a job (similar to your heart and lungs).
Its job is not to help you succeed, but only to protect you.
Your mind doesn’t care whether you succeed or not. It only cares about making sure you stay alive.
So when there is something you want that’s a little bit uncomfortable, your mind tends to freak out on you.
And it creates immediate internal conflict and hesitation…

For most people, they listen to their mind (all the time).
And that’s a big, big problem. Why?
Because the stories your mind comes up with are rarely true.
Yes, there is the logical stuff like jumping off of a bridge. Your mind is right, don’t do that!

But with almost everything else, it’s the single biggest reason you haven’t reached the level of success you’d like.
If you have any doubt, worry, stress, overwhelm or procrastination...
... Your mind is the reason for all of it.
So what can you do? Well, you can continue to be controlled by your mind and continue to listen to it or you can decide to take total control of your mind and use it to your own advantage.
