Hey everyone, welcome back. This is the Smash assistant podcast with your host, Nino Prodan. And today I want to talk about the decision you’re going to make this all starts with a decision. Are you going to do it or are you not going to do it? It’s made within you inside your brain. And the reason I want to start here is because this is the foundation for everything. It’s like the suspension for your car. If your suspension isn’t working, then the first bump you hit is going to make car fall apart. So it’s really essential, because there’s going to be some bumps along the road. But if you’re prepared mentally if you, if you have the right mindset, that bump is just going to be another part of life, something that you might even look back on finally. But that’s exactly what stops people from following their dreams. They stop at the first bump. If they’re not prepared, that first bump is like an earthquake. And instead of being able to absorb the shock, and keep moving, they just fall over. And the way we do this is by telling ourselves stories, their stories that empower us and make us able to withstand those bumps. And then there’s the stories that tell us that we tell ourselves that make it so those bumps are so catastrophic that we can can’t withstand them and we move on to something else. But I’m here today to tell you that it’s just a story you’re telling yourself. It’s just a story that we tell ourselves whether or not something’s good or bad. Whether or not it’s right or wrong, whether or not it’s who I am or who I don’t want to be. They’re all stories that we tell ourselves. And we can guide those stories to help us become who we want to be to help us live the lives that we want to have. But first, you have to start identifying them. Does any of this sound familiar to you? Oh, that’s not who I am. I can’t do that. That’s not me. Or something you might tell yourself to yourself. Oh, I’m just not good enough to do that. Oh, I just, I don’t know enough. I can’t do that. Oh, I don’t have the resources for that or I don’t have enough money to do that. Or I’m afraid to do that. So I want to ask you, how many of those stories how many of those things that you say to yourself, stop you from living the life that you want to live? It’s not about what’s comfortable. It’s about what you want in life. Do you really want a life without somebody telling you what to do? Well, it’s up to you to make it happen. And you can I know you want to do this because you’re here right now. I believe in you. I believe you could do all of this. You have the power to do this. You have the intelligence. Now I asked you do you have the will to do this? Will you put up with not knowing everything will you put up with not being good enough and then learning how to do it? Will you grow as a person? It’s not who I am now, but it’s who I will be. Your brain has the ability to constantly change to rewrite itself. So at this moment, you have the ability to change your life to change who you are, to who you want to be. Every single moment of the day, you can do this. So I asked you, will you do it? It’s not a big leap. I’ll tell you right now. It’s very, very small steps every single time. And all you have to do is just keep making them. Start rewriting the stories first. Know that you’re telling yourself a story, acknowledge it, understand it, and then think about why you’re telling yourself that story. Then, ask yourself is that story serving you if it’s not then rewrite it. You have the ability to Oh, that’s not me. Yes, that’s not you right now. Because you’re not where you want to be. But when you take the steps to do the work, that’s not me will turn into that
