Stop Explaining Yourself

Abandoning false beliefs in order to step into your destiny will come with challenges, all of which can be overcome with a strong mind.

Ralph Smart of Infinite Waters teaches us how to save our energy and move past the naysayers. Watch the video and/or read the quick quotes below:

QUICK POINTS: 

"People will only hear what they want. Explaining won’t change how they feel." 

Be confident and sure of who you are and where you’re going. Do what makes you happy every day. 

"Don’t be afraid to be called weird, crazy or a nerd - those are the geniuses."

"What other people think of you is none of your business. It’s what they’re going through based on their own life experience."

The secret to happiness “Never argue with idiots” - Zen Master. Say instead, “You’re right.”

"Work in silence. Let your success be the noise." 

"Let people doubt you and prove them wrong." 

Vegan challenge - Let your body transformation due the talking. 

"All the energy you use explaining you could be using to create something great."

"Be your biggest fan and best friend. Root for yourself everyday."

Meet people where they are. See where their level of consciousness is. 

"Not everyone is going to understand your vision. People can only believe in you if they are manifesting the same visions and living that same reality. People who doubt aren’t doing anything with their lives." 

Surround yourself with people who believe in your dream. You aren’t here for everybody to believe in you. 

"Silence is better than wasted words."

Discipline for Success

Will Smith and Jim Kwik provide some insight into how to discipline the mind into making the right choices for success.

Quickbits:

• In life we suffer from one of two pains: The pain of discipline or the pain of regret. Choose wisely.
• Self discipline is the center of material success (making dreams come true).
• Discipline = commanding your mind to choose actions in your best interest.
• Discipline & Self Love = Forgoing immediate pleasure for long-term self respect.
• "Decision Making Fatigue" - we only have certain amount of time daily we're able to make good decisions.
• If you win the first hour of the day, you win the day. ie setting up your environment the night before. Not checking email first thing in the day.
• Avoid negative news. Read & watch for hope (inspiration) and help (instructions)

What morning and nightly systems can you set up to win the day?

Examples: 

• reducing wardrobe to simpler decisions
• making your lunch the night before
• turning off cell at night and not turning on until after important tasks are complete
• setting out workout clothes
