Now let's begin. 

10
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:29,560
Hello. 
Hello, hello, babe. 

11
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,200
Welcome to the Mindset Babe 
podcast. 

12
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:37,600
In today's episode, I want to 
talk about three things blocking

13
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:45,000
you from a positive mindset. 
This is a podcast straight from 

14
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,160
my own personal experience. 
I was in the middle of doing 

15
00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:52,400
something and I was like, Oh my 
goodness, this is blocking me 

16
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,400
from having a positive mindset. 
This is blocking me from just 

17
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,280
getting this thing done and off 
my To Do List. 

18
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:03,240
So I'm so excited for today's 
podcast episode. 

19
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:08,160
Before we get into it, did you 
know I'm hosting A giveaway? 

20
00:01:08,320 --> 00:01:13,560
I'm giving away a $200.00 gift 
card to Sephora. 

21
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:18,600
Yes, $200 worth of makeup 
goodies, whatever you want to 

22
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,360
buy. 
It's a gift card so you can 

23
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:25,080
literally get whatever you want.
I wanted to host a giveaway 

24
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:31,760
because we are on the road to 
300, 300 podcast episodes and I 

25
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,280
wanted to celebrate this huge 
milestone. 

26
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,520
I wanted to celebrate with you. 
So if you leave a five star 

27
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:42,920
review on Apple podcast or 
Spotify, if you do both, you get

28
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,760
double entries. 
Once you leave a five star 

29
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,880
review, you're going to 
screenshot that review. 

30
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,280
Once you screenshot that review,
you're going to e-mail the 

31
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:58,640
review to the 
perryrichardson@gmail.com. 

32
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,600
That's my personal e-mail the 
THE Perry Perry 

33
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:13,360
richardsonrichardson@gmail.com 
to be entered into the $200.00 

34
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,040
gift card to Sephora. 
Again, leave a five star review.

35
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,480
Apple podcast, Spotify, you can 
do both for double entries. 

36
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,240
Screenshot that review and then 
you're going to e-mail that 

37
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:29,240
review to me because I only see 
the reviews in my country so I 

38
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,920
want to make sure that 
everyone's able to participate 

39
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,160
and sometimes like the 
usernames, it's like you know, 

40
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,000
it's something silly so I want 
to make sure that it's you and 

41
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,120
you're able to claim the 
giveaway prize if you win. 

42
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:48,360
The last day to enter the 
giveaway is April 26th of 2020 

43
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:53,400
sixth, and I'm going to announce
the winner on our 300th episode 

44
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,480
April 28th. 
So if this podcast has inspired 

45
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:01,320
you, if this podcast has 
impacted you, if you love make 

46
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,480
up, this is your time, this is 
your chance. 

47
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,080
I'm giving away a $200.00 gift 
card. 

48
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,040
All you have to do is leave a 
five star review and send that 

49
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,800
review to me. 
All right, let's talk about your

50
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,160
mindset. 
Let's get into this episode. 

51
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,360
OK so a couple weeks ago I was 
in my office and I was writing 

52
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:25,360
emails and it was just taking me
a really long time. 

53
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,200
I was just staring at the 
screen. 

54
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:31,880
I wasn't creative and I was just
like trying to find like the 

55
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,880
right words to say. 
Like I was just trying to make 

56
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,160
the e-mail polished and perfect 
and just all put together. 

57
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,520
And me trying to make this 
e-mail perfect and all put 

58
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,880
together. 
I started doubting myself. 

59
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,760
I was like I don't know what I'm
doing. 

60
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,840
This sounds stupid. 
Like my mindset slowly started 

61
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:57,720
turning into a negative 
overthinking spiral of just how 

62
00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,160
this is terrible when I don't 
have time. 

63
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,480
I don't know what I'm saying. 
It's like all the negative self 

64
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,800
doubt thoughts. 
And then it made me realize the 

65
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:09,120
first thing that is blocking you
from a positive mindset is 

66
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,440
perfectionism. 
When I was writing the emails 

67
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:16,760
when I decided to stop being 
perfect and stop trying to put 

68
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,079
this e-mail in. 
I don't even know some perfect 

69
00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:23,040
formula. 
When I just allowed myself to 

70
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,880
just get the words out of my 
mouth, everything started to 

71
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,240
flow. 
Everything just started to come 

72
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,920
out of my mouth and I was able 
to get it done. 

73
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,040
And when I was trying to put it 
in a perfect formula, it just 

74
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,320
created stress, overwhelm, and 
again, just like so much self 

75
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,560
doubt for me. 
And I even went on ChatGPT to 

76
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,760
like help me craft some emails 
And literally just reading those

77
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,360
emails gave me more confusion 
and overwhelm. 

78
00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:56,360
And the only reason why I even 
went to ChatGPT is because I 

79
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:01,520
couldn't trust my own answers 
because my own answers weren't 

80
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,360
good enough. 
So I had to look outside of 

81
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,920
myself. 
And so when you're trying to be 

82
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,240
perfect, not only does it create
a negative mindset, creates 

83
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:15,640
negative emotions, it has you 
look outside of yourself for the

84
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,480
answers, which then creates like
distrust within yourself. 

85
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:24,160
You don't trust yourself and 
self trust is the number one 

86
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:28,080
thing you need for self love. 
Just like a romantic 

87
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,080
relationship, the biggest thing 
is trust. 

88
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,640
Once that trust is broken, the 
relationship will never be the 

89
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,920
same. 
And my main mission for my work 

90
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,720
in this podcast is to help you 
love yourself. 

91
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,760
And so you need to build self 
trust within yourself. 

92
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,880
How do you know your 
imperfectionism? 

93
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,440
I wrote only two things, but 
there's probably a million. 

94
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,920
And we're not being perfect. 
We're just getting it done. 

95
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,960
Number one, you have pressure. 
Like you feel pressure to say 

96
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,160
the right thing or do the right 
thing. 

97
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,240
And then I also wrote down all 
or nothing. 

98
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,200
It's either perfect, amazing, 
awesome, or it's terrible, 

99
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:12,000
shitty, and not good enough. 
Versus there is a middle ground.

100
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,720
There's always things that are 
working and there's always 

101
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,320
things that are not working all 
of the same time. 

102
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,480
Two things can be true at the 
same time. 

103
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,280
I love doing this with my 
students. 

104
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,600
Like currently it's Monday April
6, which is my one year 

105
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:31,760
anniversary guys been married 
for one year been together for 

106
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,120
8. 
Like today's the actual day that

107
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,320
we were on our first date eight 
years ago. 

108
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,560
Then we got married last year on
today's date. 

109
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,320
But anywho, today is Monday, 
April 6th at six O 5 in the 

110
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:49,040
morning and also it's Monday, 
April 6th at 9:00 in the morning

111
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,600
if you live on like the Eastern 
Time zone. 

112
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,320
But also it's probably, I don't 
even know, 2 in the morning. 

113
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,480
The Tuesday in Japan. 
I'm not 100% sure about that 

114
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:01,640
one. 
I just made that up. 

115
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:07,520
But even something so basic, 
like with numbers, something 

116
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,080
that is just so tangible. 
There's different times at all 

117
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,800
different times, right? 
It's 6:00 AM Pacific, it's 7:00 

118
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:21,360
AM mountain, it's 8:00 PM 
Central, and it's 9 Eastern Time

119
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,800
all at the same time. 
Multile things can be true at 

120
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,400
the same time, and when you're 
trying to be perfect, that's not

121
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,520
an option. 
It's either right or it's either

122
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,960
wrong. 
So instead of being perfect, 

123
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:40,200
allow yourself to be you. 
Get the first draft out of your 

124
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,040
mouth, write it down, whatever 
it is. 

125
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,800
For me, it was e-mail. 
Sometimes with this podcast, 

126
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,600
like I just got to get the words
out of my mouth to let it flow. 

127
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:52,120
It does not have to be perfect 
the first time or the second or 

128
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:56,920
the 5th or even the 10th time. 
The most important thing is that

129
00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:02,400
you do it, that you do it, OK, 
so that's the first thing. 

130
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,760
Blocking you from a positive 
mindset is perfectionism. 

131
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,680
Trying to be perfect when 
there's no such thing as 

132
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:14,120
perfection #2 which they're kind
of hand in hand together is 

133
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:19,720
compare and despair, which is 
using other people's success 

134
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:25,280
against yourself. 
My coach told me something so 

135
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:30,080
powerful last week. 
This is what she said when it 

136
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:35,440
comes to comparison. 
When you focus on other people's

137
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:39,760
results, you lose the 
opportunity to create your own. 

138
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:46,000
When you focus on other people's
results, you lose the 

139
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,720
opportunity to create your own. 
When you're focused on someone 

140
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:54,080
else's story, you lose the 
opportunity to write your own. 

141
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:58,240
When you're focused on someone 
else's life, you cannot create 

142
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,240
your life. 
And when my coach said that to 

143
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:05,480
me, literally, I've never had 
like a profound breakthrough 

144
00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,600
like that in such a long time. 
I've just been in the game with 

145
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,200
personal development. 
There's not too many things that

146
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:15,680
like what like really just like 
shake my core and give me a 

147
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:19,360
whole new reality of how I 
should look at my life. 

148
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,800
When you look at someone else's 
results, when you're looking at 

149
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,240
their story, when you're looking
at their life, you lose 

150
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,000
opportunity to create your own. 
It's literally so beautiful. 

151
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,520
It could be a tattoo, to be 
honest. 

152
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,920
All right, so how do you know if
you're doing this? 

153
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,440
Number one, you feel like you're
behind. 

154
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,920
The only reason you feel like 
you're behind is because you're 

155
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,240
looking at someone else's life 
and you feel like you're behind 

156
00:09:43,560 --> 00:09:46,440
compared to their life, right? 
That's the only reason you feel 

157
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:49,200
behind #2 you don't feel good 
enough. 

158
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,800
The only reason you don't feel 
good enough is because you're 

159
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,520
looking at someone else's life, 
comparing and despairing of 

160
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:58,160
thinking this is what a good 
enough good enough life looks 

161
00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:00,280
like, and my life is not good 
enough. 

162
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,080
You're too much of something. 
You're too fat, you're too 

163
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,920
skinny, you're too shy, you're 
too unfashionable. 

164
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,960
Whatever it is, you're too much 
or not enough of something. 

165
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,600
Another reason how you know 
you're in compare and despair is

166
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,920
I should, I should be doing 
this. 

167
00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,280
Like for me, it's like I should 
be posting on Instagram. 

168
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,360
I should be starting on YouTube,
whatever it is, I should have a 

169
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,080
great relationship with my 
family. 

170
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,440
Whatever it is I should, I 
should, I should, you know 

171
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,880
you're living in compare and 
despair because how do you even 

172
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,320
know that you should be doing it
is because right? 

173
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,200
You're looking at someone else's
results to determine your 

174
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,760
results, which is never a good 
thing to do. 

175
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,240
Something I've been doing 
recently is a gratitude 

176
00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:48,200
practice, but I've been saying I
have the privilege or I'm 

177
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,720
privileged. 
For example, what a privilege it

178
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,240
is that I get to talk to you 
today. 

179
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,440
What a privilege it is that I 
have hot water. 

180
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:58,680
What a privilege it is that I 
get to drive to my corporate job

181
00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:01,160
today. 
What a privilege it is that I'm 

182
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,840
able to manage my time, that I'm
able to build a business and 

183
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,760
also work my corporate job. 
What a privilege it is that I 

184
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,680
get to have yummy food. 
What a privilege it is that I'm 

185
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,760
currently just laying in my bed.
I have a five star podcast and I

186
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:18,680
just do it in my bed. 
What a privilege. 

187
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,920
So what helps me stop comparing 
and despairing because there's 

188
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,040
so much, right? 
Social media has us compare all 

189
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,880
day long. 
I always have to stop and I have

190
00:11:27,880 --> 00:11:31,120
to look at my current miracles. 
I have to look at the privileges

191
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,960
that I currently have because 
our brain, right, will trick us 

192
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,160
when we're in compare and 
despair will turn a good thing 

193
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,160
into a bad thing. 
Versus like how we step into 

194
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:45,280
that positive mindset is looking
at the blessings, the miracles, 

195
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,480
the privileges, all that we 
have. 

196
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,480
That's what we need to focus, 
focus on. 

197
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,160
All right. 
And then the very last thing I 

198
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,480
want to talk about, the last 
thing that is blocking you from 

199
00:11:56,040 --> 00:12:02,760
a positive mindset, which also 
is a perfect segue, looking at 

200
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,880
what's not working. 
How do you know this is you? 

201
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,760
You're thinking about the things
you didn't get done versus the 

202
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,680
thing you did get done. 
So many of my students will tell

203
00:12:15,680 --> 00:12:19,280
me they'll get on the call and 
they're like, yeah, like, this 

204
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:22,120
week was OK. 
Like, I worked out three times 

205
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,240
and I drank all my water and 
like, I actually, like, cleaned 

206
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:30,760
out, I don't know, the closet. 
And I'm like, wait, what? 

207
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,120
Like you actually did like, so, 
so much. 

208
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,880
Like what was actually on your 
To Do List? 

209
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,800
And they tell me like, oh, 
actually there's only two things

210
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,760
I didn't do on my To Do List. 
I actually did everything else. 

211
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:46,680
And it's just so interesting how
our brain focuses on the lack #2

212
00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:50,880
you look out how far you are 
versus looking at how far you've

213
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,000
come. 
Like you're looking at the 

214
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,680
distance in front of you instead
of behind you. 

215
00:12:55,680 --> 00:12:58,920
It makes me think of like 
hiking, like if you just look up

216
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,120
the mountain the whole time, 
like it's going to be like 

217
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,440
draining and it's going to be a 
lot of work. 

218
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,200
And you're going to be like, Oh 
my goodness, it's so hot. 

219
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,840
And it's just going to be not as
an amazing experience compared 

220
00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:14,120
if you take a moment and stop, 
turn around, look how far you've

221
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:18,600
come, refresh yourself, get some
water, maybe have a little 

222
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:22,360
snack, sit down, whatever it is.
When you take a moment to 

223
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,200
appreciate the view, that's when
it feels so good. 

224
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,560
And that's when like the hard 
work, that workout is so 

225
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:31,920
rewarding. 
And the last thing, like, how do

226
00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,320
you know you're looking at 
what's not working is you're 

227
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,000
looking at what you don't like 
versus what you want. 

228
00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,360
When I ask my students what they
want, most of the time they tell

229
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,520
me what they don't want. 
I don't want to have negative 

230
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,520
thoughts. 
I don't want to feel overwhelm. 

231
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,080
I don't want to be stressed. 
I don't want to have this 

232
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,600
anxiety anymore. 
I don't want to doubt myself any

233
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,720
longer. 
Instead, I want a positive 

234
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,880
mindset. 
I want to feel calm and 

235
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,480
grounded. 
I want to feel confident. 

236
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,360
I want to feel powerful. 
I want to feel free. 

237
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:07,240
And I really want you, like my 
homework for you for this 

238
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:11,960
episode is to talk about all the
things like write it down, talk 

239
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:16,640
about the things what you don't 
want versus what you do want. 

240
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,120
Just shifting that will put you 
in a positive mindset. 

241
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:24,520
When you're looking at what I 
want, literally like the same 

242
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:27,760
thought, like I don't want 
negative thoughts versus I want 

243
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,280
positive thoughts is a 
completely different energy 

244
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,280
vibration. 
It switches your mindset. 

245
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:38,280
It helps you feel good when you 
say I want versus I do not want.

246
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,720
So crazy. 
Like we're just removing the 

247
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:45,560
word like don't. 
And it completely changes your 

248
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:49,400
experience of the situation and 
the mindset that you hold. 

249
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,360
And your mindset is the key to 
the life that you desire. 

250
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,320
That's what I have for you in 
today's podcast episode. 

251
00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:01,600
Just a little recap for you, 3 
things blocking you from a 

252
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,160
positive mindset #1 
perfectionism. 

253
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,400
Stop being perfect because 
perfect doesn't even exist. 

254
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,760
And just be you. 
Could you just be you? 

255
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,160
Can we just like try that on for
a little bit because you being 

256
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:19,000
perfect isn't working. 
OK, The second thing blocking 

257
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,840
you from a positive mindset is 
compare and despair. 

258
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,000
Again, this is so good. 
Write it down. 

259
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:31,000
When you focus on someone else's
results, you lose the 

260
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:35,880
opportunity to create your own. 
When you focus on someone else's

261
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:41,360
story, you lose the opportunity 
to write your own in. 

262
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,480
The very last thing blocking you
from a positive mindset is 

263
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,600
focusing on what's not working, 
focusing on the negativity, 

264
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:55,360
focusing on all the things you 
haven't done, all the things you

265
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:58,640
haven't accomplished, and all 
the things that you still have 

266
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:02,400
to do. 
So make sure you focus on the 

267
00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:05,160
things that you want to. 
Make sure you focus on the 

268
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,000
things that you have achieved. 
Look at the blessings, look at 

269
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,120
the celebrations. 
Look at the privileges you have 

270
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,960
in your life. 
What a privilege it is that I'm 

271
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,880
talking to you right now. 
What a privilege it is that you 

272
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:22,240
have opportunity to win a 
$200.00 gift card to Sephora. 

273
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,120

far have just made my day so 

281
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,920
