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

<p>The <strong>house analogy</strong></p> <p><strong>If you can’t raise the roof, raise the floor</strong></p> <p><strong>Its almost like seeing everywhere you aren’t right now in any journey instead of seeing how far you’ve come – gratitude.</strong></p> <p>Time is going to pass anyway</p> <p>Human connection – use social media in a positive way</p> <p>These are the skills – the skill I was talking about at the start – these are skills you can apply to life</p> <p>Importance of dopamine</p> <p>Everything teaches us something.</p> <p>Take ownership of your headspace and realise that you want to be in control of your life and mindset.</p> <p>See everything as an opportunity to grow.</p> <p><strong>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.</strong></p> <p><strong>SHAME – FEAR – ACCEPTANCE</strong></p> <p><strong>INSTEAD OF IT BEING “it just is” we make shit personal .</strong></p> <p>Not “makes me” anxious – it doesn’t MAKE ME – I create that perception.</p> <p>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</p> <p><strong>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</strong></p> <p><strong>See how important gratitude is and reflection and self introspect?</strong></p> <p><strong>So PAUSE – these pillars are so so so important.</strong></p>
