Angela is joined by life coach and mindset expert, Paul Sheppard, for a look into the concept of mindfulness and the power of present moment awareness, sparked by a compelling question: "What will your next thought be?"

They explore how our minds often time travel to the past or future, leading to unnecessary misery and distraction from the present, and highlight the importance of devaluing negative thoughts and conditioning to create new, empowering beliefs.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The Power of the Present Moment: Living in the now eliminates the illusion of a more important future moment, reducing stress and unhappiness.

Mindfulness Question: Asking, "What will your next thought be?" can create a powerful pause in the mind, even for individuals dealing with ADHD or intrusive thoughts.

Devaluing Old Beliefs: To override limiting beliefs, recognize and devalue them by acknowledging their cost and irrelevance to your present life.

Breaking the Stress Addiction: Many people are unconsciously addicted to the hormones of stress and struggle, but mindfulness and intentional habits can break this cycle.

Radical Honesty for Change: Reflecting on why unhappiness feels more important than happiness can reveal hidden patterns and help dismantle them.

Consistency Over Quick Fixes: Sustainable progress comes from small, intentional daily improvements rather than chasing immediate gratification.
