Did you know that becoming aware of your limiting beliefs is the first step in changing your mindset? Dianna Kokoszka is a speaker, author, and entrepreneur. She is the author of the book "Becoming More: You Can't Get to Better Until You Get to Different" In episode 87 of Dominate Your Day, I had the pleasure of talking to Dianna about the importance of mindset and how to change your mindset to achieve your goals.

The biggest challenge people face is their own mindset. We all have limiting beliefs that hold us back from achieving our goals. These beliefs can be about our abilities, worth, or circumstances. And to change your mindset, it is imperative to first become aware of your limiting beliefs. Once you know what they are, you can start to challenge them. She suggests asking yourself questions like:

• Is this belief true?

• Where did I get this belief?

• Is there any evidence to support this belief?

According to Dianna, we all have four different energies in the realm of mindset: confidence, optimism, gratitude, and presence. When we are in these energies, we are more likely to succeed.

To increase your energy, doing things that make you feel good is instrumental. This could include spending time with loved ones, doing something creative, or exercising. She also suggests practicing

Here are some additional tips from Dianna for changing your mindset:

• Read and listen to re-learn and re-shape your thinking on mindset.

• Find a mentor or coach who can help you to change your mindset.

• Join a support group or online community for people working on changing their mindset.

• Be patient and consistent with your efforts. Changing your mindset takes time and effort, but it is possible.

Episode Overview:

• 15:16 – A snippet of Dianna's story: From success to significance

• 24:08 –Dare to be uncomfortable.

• 32:10 – When you start giving back to others, your life really lights up.

Managing change effectively often boils down to the mindset we adopt and the feelings we allow ourselves to experience during the process. By intertwining these two elements, we can navigate change more successfully. Carol Dweck's concept of a "growth mindset" posits that our abilities and intelligence can be developed over time. This perspective encourages us to view change as an opportunity for learning and growth, rather than as a threat. (source) Similarly, Neville Goddard, in his insightful book "The Feeling is the Secret," highlights the power of feelings in shaping our reality. According to Goddard, the feelings we cultivate within us are mirrored in our external world. If we can feel the joy and success that the positive outcome of a change could bring, we're more likely to achieve it. In times of change, leveraging the CliftonStrengths® tool can be extremely beneficial. By identifying your unique talents and strengths, CliftonStrengths® provides a roadmap to leverage your inherent abilities, aiding in the management of change. For instance, if "Positivity" is one of your top strengths, you might find it helpful to consciously cultivate positive feelings about the change.
