Speaker:We had a great David Goggins quote, and I'm just going to keep going
Speaker:because I've sourced some of my favorite David Goggins quotes.
Speaker:I think he's got a lot of teachers.
Speaker:I want to share it with you.
Speaker:Today's quote is really simple.
Speaker:It's riff on it.
Speaker:It's is this the only way?
Speaker:To change your life, the only way to change your life.
Speaker:Is to change your mind.
Speaker:The only way to change your life is to change your mind.
Speaker:Sometimes these short quotes can be so powerful, but they
Speaker:just cut through think about it.
Speaker:The only change that is going to happen in your life is going to
Speaker:happen because of some shift in your cognitive approach towards it.
Speaker:You see, magical unicorns do not come out of the sky and sprinkle fairy dust
Speaker:and radically change, whatever area of your life it is that you want to change.
Speaker:Whether it's goals, whether it's relationships, whether it's fitness,
Speaker:whether it's diet, whether it's finances, whether it's spirituality.
Speaker:Very few of you listening have looked Skyward and seen a unicorn descending with
Speaker:fairy dust sprinkling and upon your head.
Speaker:And all of a sudden you're like, you know, 15 kilos lighter with a massive six pack.
Speaker:How'd that happen?
Speaker:This is like, well, I just, I didn't do anything.
Speaker:I just was walking outside.
Speaker:And the next thing I know I'm ripped.
Speaker:That's not how it works.
Speaker:Isn't so how does it work?
Speaker:Well, Uh, mine's change.
Speaker:What we value changes, what we place value upon how we use our time changes.
Speaker:What we think is significant.
Speaker:What we start doing or stop doing is all conditioned by our mind, by our.
Speaker:Ability for reason, rationality for cognition.
Speaker:All of it starts there first.
Speaker:You know, Let's just say you're struggling with fitness riding.
Speaker:And you're not happy with where your body's at and you and.
Speaker:That's that's the initial state, right?
Speaker:So you're starting from that position.
Speaker:Yeah.
Speaker:You're like, you know, you might be.
Speaker:10 pounds, 20 pounds.
Speaker:What are the 10, 5, 10 kilos overweight, whatever it is,
Speaker:whereas different for everybody.
Speaker:If that's your situation.
Speaker:So sitting on that couch, you don't magically change, right?
Speaker:Like you don't start to lose weight by sitting on the couch.
Speaker:Well, there is one way you could do that, but not eating at all,
Speaker:but we're not going to do that.
Speaker:So what happens the first will always be what a cognitive shift.
Speaker:That's why that famous book, you know, as a man thinketh,
Speaker:Uh, you know, that's what the Bible says is, you know, as
Speaker:a man thinketh in his heart.
Speaker:So he is, so is he right?
Speaker:So what begins first is some shifting cognition.
Speaker:Now that can be a different perceived future, right?
Speaker:So we begin to perceive that we're not happy with our physical body.
Speaker:We want some kind of change.
Speaker:And so the next thing we know.
Speaker:We begin to exercise or we go for that first walk or we get out our phones or our
Speaker:laptops, and we look up gyms in our area.
Speaker:Right.
Speaker:But you can see that the change in our life, maybe, you know, three months
Speaker:or six months later, let's say you've built in some really good habits and
Speaker:you're in a different place physically.
Speaker:That change in your life began from that seminal moment when you had a change.
Speaker:Of mind.
Speaker:Sometimes we call it a change of heart Domi, but there's kind of a
Speaker:compenent treatian here between our emotional world, our heart and our
Speaker:heads, but we change it in our heads.
Speaker:We, we mentally perceive a different possibility.
Speaker:We begin to see a different kind of future.
Speaker:And as we see that.
Speaker:Change begins.
Speaker:You know, there's a few episodes ago.
Speaker:I had a thing.
Speaker:We had a quote from president theater Roosevelt who talked about belief.
Speaker:He said, if you believe you can, you're halfway there.
Speaker:If you believe you can.
Speaker:You're halfway there.
Speaker:If you change your mind, you are halfway to changing your life.
Speaker:What comes next is the physical actions.
Speaker:The change in diet or the change in how you manage your finances
Speaker:or the change in the quality of your marriage or relationships
Speaker:or the change in your career.
Speaker:That change begins with that first cognitive shift.
Speaker:So that's an extraordinary power, right?
Speaker:Extraordinary power that you begin to take some discipline over how you think.
Speaker:I have been saying this on the podcast for many years.
Speaker:I am still coming to terms with it.
Speaker:This incredible power that we actually have to stop, accepting the garbage
Speaker:that our minds often wants to serve up.
Speaker:Often it wants to serve up.
Speaker:Really unhelpful things that are not going to move us forward,
Speaker:but we can, we really can.
Speaker:I have to work at this.
Speaker:Change.
Speaker:Our thinking change our minds, change how we actually structure reality by, by
Speaker:realizing that we are not passive, that we don't have to think certain thoughts.
Speaker:That we don't have to accept certain forms of cognition that we can actually go.
Speaker:No, I'm not thinking this.
Speaker:I don't go down that rabbit hole.
Speaker:Those days are over.
Speaker:I am changing my life and I'm changing my mind.
Speaker:These things are possible.
Speaker:They're not easy, but they're possible.
Speaker:So my encouragement to you today is to begin to think about changing your mind.
Speaker:Come on.
Speaker:There's gotta be one area.
Speaker:If you are listening to me, if you've listened this long in today's podcast,
Speaker:there is at least one area of your life.
Speaker:That you want to change?
Speaker:So to do that, there is what is going to be necessary is a change of mind.
Speaker:The first aspect of that change of mind is to perceive a different future.
Speaker:You have to perceive a different future could be something different
Speaker:tomorrow or in six months or a year, but there is going to be.
Speaker:Uh, change there is going to be a different perception,
Speaker:a different cognition.
Speaker:You have to see something different in your mind.
Speaker:And then once you have that picture, Then you can use that same mind to rationally.
Speaker:Consider what decision points you have.
Speaker:What actions you can actually take.
Speaker:You know, one of my favorite speakers always just say, all
Speaker:change happens in an instant people.
Speaker:Think it took 30 years to quit smoking.
Speaker:It did not.
Speaker:It took a second to quit smoking.
Speaker:It took 30 years to get to that point.
Speaker:But when the change happens, it happens in an instant.
Speaker:So when we change our minds and we go enough, this is over.
Speaker:I'm not doing this.
Speaker:This life changes.
Speaker:This is going to be different to change of mind, that happens in an instant.
Speaker:Then you take concrete actions and you take another one and another
Speaker:one and another one and another one.
Speaker:And you get moving forward.
Speaker:All right.
Speaker:One more time.
Speaker:The only way to change your life is to change your mind.
Speaker:You're in, you have much more power than you think.
Speaker:My friend, you have much more power than you think.
Speaker:All right, everybody.
Speaker:God bless you.
Speaker:I hope that's useful.
