66. Thinking Out Loud - My 7 Tips to Go Beyond Your Upper Limit


Listen Later

Our thoughts have so much power. I've had a lot of time to think over the last year because of the pandemic -- being at home more, being in quiet spaces more.


I’m sure you’d found yourself with your thoughts too — maybe you’ve felt “stuck with your thoughts” or “finally, I’m alone with my thoughts!” Or maybe if you’re like me, you’ve felt both feelings and somewhere in the middle at times.

An interesting observation I’ve noticed and also heard articulated on other podcasts, like Simon’s Sinek’s episode with Sara Blakely, the founder of Spanx, is that from a very young age, we’re taught “what to think,” not “how to think.”

Whoa...

When something happens to you, or for you as I like to say, the way you think about it and react has everything to do with the trajectory of your life moving forward.

🎧In today's Glow Getters podcast episode, I'm breaking down my tips for "how to think" that will help us control our thoughts so we can show up as our best selves. Our happiest, our most positive, our most joyful, our most resilient selves.

In this episode, I’m going to give you my best tips so that you can always sort out your inner voice, find strength in what you know to be true, get curious to learn more and find out why, and ultimately ensure that your actions from your thoughts, lead you in an upward, positive trajectory rather than in a downward spiral.
