"Recognizing that I can have thoughts and behave differently and that thoughts don't determine my fate." Today, Leila (@LeilaHormozi) takes us on a walk while reflecting on her personal journey of overcoming fear and anxiety, emphasizing the importance of accepting negative emotions and focusing on actions rather than thoughts. She also discusses the idea of engineering one's environment to create higher stakes and consequences for taking positive actions, ultimately leading to personal growth and a happier life.
