Becoming Comfortable Being Uncomfortable

Description: Dr. Branch challenges listeners to become comfortable being uncomfortable by intentionally doing something new, different or uncomfortable every day. Dr. Branch emphasizes the importance of changing your language and word choice to align with the person you want to become, rather than using words that reinforce your past self or limiting beliefs. Dr. Branch encourages the listener to re-examine old "rules of engagement" or beliefs that may no longer serve them, and consider adopting new perspectives and mindsets.Dr. Branch shares examples like "happy wife, happy life" to illustrate how certain common sayings or beliefs can actually hold us back from taking care of ourselves and becoming our best selves. Overall, the main message is about intentionally stepping out of your comfort zone, changing your self-talk and beliefs, and taking control of your own growth and transformation, rather than just passively letting life happen to you.Lifework: Challenge yourself to do something new, different and uncomfortable every day. Example, brush your teeth with the opposite hand.  Be mindful of your language and word choice.  Decide on what words you use that brings you life and the words that brings death. Examine your current “rules of engagement” and determine if they are helping or hurting you past, present or future self. How can you begin to focus more on small incremental changes rather that expecting drastic transformations. The micro changes will compound over time to create the macro changes you desire. Sponsors:This episode is brought to you by our amazing sponsors:J Branch & Associates: Schedule your free 15 minute consultation by going to www.drjbranch.com; call or text (404) 436-2540 Connect with The 3 Parallels Podcast:Instagram: www.instagram.com/3parallelspodcastDownload the 3 Parallels Music Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2DCvaDp1wWypO59l1kearH?si=sy0X9tMcSNumk4ym-VZ9LQDon't forget to subscribe, rate, and review the show on Spotify, Iheart, Apple Podcast, and Youtube.
