Bottom Line:
Mindset is the #1 predictor of success.
The conversations that you have with yourself that play a major role in determining your growth.
And thinking that you can’t do something can become a self-fulfilling prophecy that prevents you from acting and making the decisions you need to live your best life.
The good news is that there is good news!
Why it Matters:
You can change your habits, beliefs, and transform the way you think.
When you do, you’ll be able to look at the world with a new perspective, and that alone can empower you to become the person you know you can be.
Pay attention this week to the thought loops that play in your head and try to be more conscientious about what you tell yourself. This small change will help you cultivate a more positive mindset in 2021.
