Episode 53 "You vs Your Thoughts"

from "The Grateful Dread" (podcast) · host Andrew Young

On this episode I talk about being who you are and not allowing your emotions to get the best of you. Will Smith once said that self love is forgoing short term satisfaction for what's in your own best interest long term. Sometimes I wake up and I'm simply not in the mood to do what I know I need to get done today. If I give in to my emotions and I continue to lay in the bed for a few more hours I'm setting the tone for a bad day. Next thing you know I wake up 2 hours late and I'm in the mood for pancakes even though just yesterday I decided to fast during breakfast time and commit to a low carb lifestyle. If I give into my emotions again and eat pancakes now it's starting to become a pattern of self sabotage. Do this a few more times  and before you know it, you've become someone who struggles to reach his potential and rarely achieves goals and it's because you've developed a habit of self sabotaging behavior. Today I encourage you to refuse to allow your emotions to get the best of you and commit to being the best version of yourself and as always appreciate the blessings!
