#129 - How MOTIVATION, perception & awareness bring happiness, gratitude & opportunity w/ better relationships & health & fitness SUCCESS - part 2 Thomas Flynn

The house analogy If you can’t raise the roof, raise the floor Its almost like seeing everywhere you aren’t right now in any journey instead of seeing how far you’ve come – gratitude. Time is going to pass anyway Human connection – use social media in a positive way These are the skills – the skill I was talking about at the start – these are skills you can apply to life Importance of dopamine Everything teaches us something. Take ownership of your headspace and realise that you want to be in control of your life and mindset. See everything as an opportunity to grow. Zoom the fuck out and see how growth doesn’t work in one direction. Its not just progress and growth in terms of gym progress or weight loss or physical results. – your inner world dictates your outer world. SHAME – FEAR – ACCEPTANCE INSTEAD OF IT BEING “it just is” we make shit personal . Not “makes me” anxious – it doesn’t MAKE ME – I create that perception. HOW WE ARE SO quick to focus on the negatives and not the positives – 90% positives but we focus on the 10% negative – this happens in our journey of health and fitness as well Which feeds the stories we tell ourselves and our identity - so we never feel enough, nothing feels enough, and we come from a place of lack again See how important gratitude is and reflection and self introspect? So PAUSE – these pillars are so so so important.
