0:38Hi, my name is Lewis Howes and welcome to The Daily Motivation Show.

0:49For many years, I lived with a conversation of I'm not good enough, I'm stupid, I'm never going to figure this out. everyone else around me is smarter than me. Why are they getting these results? And I'm struggling when I'm working so hard. It was just a constant movie playing in my mind that was telling me I'm not good enough. And it was manifesting physically in my life, the results of I'm not good enough. And it was exhausting. And I don't know if you're feeling this right now, or if you can ever relate to this in your life, where you've had this script, this conversation, this critic in your mind telling you how hard things are, how unfortunate things are, why it's not fair, why other people are getting results and you're not getting it, how you're never going to be able to create financial freedom for your life.

1:39I don't know if you've ever had that script. If you have, leave a comment below or like this to confirm that you have so I can see that because this is one of the things that holds you back is your mindset is shaping you. It's shaping your external world because it's manifesting within your internal world. And I want to share this clip from Lisa Nichols, where she really shares this in a powerful way. So watch this. Your life is a physical manifestation of the conversation going on in your head. So if you said nothing but thought everything, your life is going to show up to make your thoughts true.

2:12So you have one job. You have one job in your life for you to make what you think about life true so that you're not wrong. You don't want to walk around wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. You want to be right about the life you see. So you're going to work hard, work hard to produce the life that you talk about in your mind. You've got to see yourself there in your mind. And if you're seeing yourself in struggle in your mind, you're going to manifest it externally in your life. It's not just going to be all of a sudden, easy times, you know, money's not going to fly from the sky and just fall in your lap.

2:45If you're in struggle in your mind. You're going to create struggle in your physical manifestations as well. Maybe you're creating some results, but it's just harder. Maybe some opportunities come to you, but it feels like you had to work so hard to make it happen. As opposed to shifting the mindset and the narrative in your mind first, saying something like, opportunities flow to me effortlessly and abundantly. People want to be around me who have opportunities and they want to see me succeed. if you start shifting your self-talk into more empowering messages, more empowering beliefs, even if you don't fully believe it right now, it's okay.

3:27But when you start to speak negatively about yourself constantly, why it's so hard, you're going to confirm that because your life doesn't want to be wrong about what you're saying. So you don't want to be wrong about what you're saying. You're going to manifest that like Lisa just said. So you need to figure out ways to start shifting it with the positive self-talk. You need to be thinking about ways that you can create empowering validation from what you're speaking. And there's a great story that I've talked about before, which is how I found a penny that ended up being worth$4 ,000. And I just wanted to do an experiment for myself when I was on my book tour, Make Money Easy.

4:09I was traveling around the country and I was in New York and I have a video about this that I want to share with you in a moment. that showcases what happened. But just by saying something over and over again, thinking of it, setting an intention, you're creating the space for physical manifestation to occur. It doesn't guarantee that you're gonna create these results in a moment or in a day or in a week or month. It doesn't guarantee anything. But by putting yourself in a negative mindset constantly, this law is going to guarantee negative and stress and anxiety. you're going to validate what you're thinking constantly.

4:47So we need to be shifting our thinking so that we can validate with a more empowering experience in life.
