Episode notes
Mental Diet Determines Character
- Your mental diet shapes your character and almost everything that happens in life.
- Brian Tracy compares the mind to a garden: if you don't plant positive thoughts, weeds (negative thoughts) will grow by default.
Use Present Personal Affirmations
- Use positive affirmations phrased in the positive, present, and personal tense to control your inner dialogue.
- Examples: I like myself; I can do it; I feel terrific; I am responsible, because 95% of emotions come from self-talk.
Visualize Goals As Already Done
- Practice vivid visualization by repeatedly seeing your goals as already accomplished.
- Brian Tracy says all improvement begins with better mental pictures: 'As you see yourself on the inside, you will be on the outside.'
