Welcome back to another episode of create a new tomorrow I am your host Ari Gronich. Remember to Like, Subscribe rate review, comment below so that we can start conversations that matter and help you create a new tomorrow today. I've got with me today, Richard Flint. He is a 30 plus year veteran of the lecturing circuits. He is the author of over 19 books, and has great ability to adapt, adjust, align, and these changing times he just opened up a learning center this last week. So Richard, why don't you tell us a little bit about yourself how you got to be who you are? And why, why are these people listening to you?

Richard Flint 0:56  

All right. We live in we live in interesting times right now, where people are being challenged at a level that they've never been challenged to before. And if you had asked me 30 plus years ago, what I would be doing with my life today, I probably have told you that I would be teaching at some University. And with my education, I did my undergraduate work in English and speech, I have a master's in ethics. And then I have PhDs in philosophy and psychology. When I finished graduate school, I went and taught at Ohio University for a couple of years and then moved to Wayne State University in Detroit, and left there and went to the stamper First Baptist Church in West Palm Beach, Florida, very large church, where I ran the counseling division for them. Church had some internal struggles, I left there and ran a private Counseling Center in the palm beaches for several years. And already while I was doing that, I wrote some magazine articles, I got some international attention. And I started getting groups of women that would ask me, would you come share your philosophies with this because I'm known for my philosophies. And I did that on a limited basis for a year and a half. And then I woke up one morning and realized this was a once in a lifetime opportunity. And that was 32 years ago. And for the past 32 years, I have traveled this globe. sharing my philosophies, my thoughts, my ideas, my processes, with people, if I've been given one gift in life, is the ability to take what looks confusing to you, and show you the simple process to get to the other side of it.

Ari Gronich 2:45  

Yeah, you know, I have these conversations a lot with my with my seven year old, it's kind of interesting about choices and about what we choose to do, and the results that come from it. You know, you mentioned we're in changing and interesting times, I think that pretty much every time period is interesting times to the people who live in them. I've always said that Mad Men are, you know, your geniuses are mad men to the societies they live in. It takes generations before they get recognized as the geniuses that they are. And, and so it's interesting, I don't feel like we live in, in changing an interesting times. I feel like it's an extension of what we've already created. And, and, you know, my philosophy, as you say is that we made this shit up and we can do better. Everything we see is a figment of our imagination, we created it in our mind. And what I'm hearing you say is that we can easily readily use that imagination and use our mind to shift our perspectives and adapt and change and adjust to the world that we see in front of us.

Richard Flint 4:11  

Well, you and I every day the choices that we make, are based on which which direction we choose to live, we the live from our emotions up our mind down. And if I live from my emotions up, then I I sort of limit my ability to think because from my emotions up, I'm going to react because from my emotions up, the foundation of my life is is about me doubting, worrying and feeling uncertain. And when I have those three as the foundation of my living process, then I'm going to react to everything that happens.

Ari Gronich 4:51  

So let's let's like unpack this a little bit because I think a lot of people would say that Living in your mind is basically living in a figment of your imagination of what's not reality. And your emotions are what tell you, you know what the truth is. So whether you're passionate about something or whether you're angry about something, it tells you kind of the path of your resistance versus your mind, which may logically have all the numbers in place. But there's something not right. And if you don't listen to that, other than you can get lost. So let's unpack this so that people know what we're kind of talking about what you're talking about, so that there's more clarity to that and how to implement that into somebody's life.

Richard Flint 5:53  

My mind is a sketchpad. And my mind, everything that I am created with my life began as a thought that I began to process and I have sketched it out. I'm a collector of hand carved wooden ducks. And several years ago, I was in Big Bear California doing a program. And the lady who had brought me in to speak to her company says, I'm going to take you over and show you something. So she took me over to a carving studio of a gentleman that that's what he did, he carved hand carved wooden ducks. So we were talking, he said, I want to show you something. So he took me into his studio, and on the table was a block of wood. He said, What are you looking at, and I said, I'm looking at a block of wood. He says, I'm looking at a duck. I said, I'll buy it. Because if we lose our imagination, then we lose our ability to see forward. But if I'm strong mentally, I can work through the emotions.

Ari Gronich 7:00  

That's interesting. And I like what you're saying, because obviously, this show is called create a new tomorrow. And in order to do that, you have to leave yesterday behind, I do have a firm belief that you have to learn from yesterday in order to properly leave it behind. However, you know, that's kind of the idea. So let's, let's break apart. Today is not yesterday, this sentence that that you placed in here, today is not yesterday, and we must be willing to do what needs to be done to prepare. So let's break apart that sentence into actionable things that somebody can actually do rather than just the concept. Okay?

Richard Flint 7:47  

First thing is my definition of yesterday, yesterday is a reference library, not a room to live. Can you and I airy, we've both known people who have chosen to live in yesterday, because of their their fear and the from, from the day I was born to the day I die, I'm going to battle six fears. And one of these six is going to be my number one fear. And if I don't control my fear, then I become a hostage to yesterday, there is no fear in today until I bring it out of yesterday. You know, you've got the fear of the unknown, which is rampid. Today. I mean, the people I'm talking to, they just they're they're challenged because they're used to having this routine of their life. And they're used to being able to control their life, but all of a sudden, that's sort of been removed from them. So if I take that away, then they're looking at an unknown. And there's fear in that. There's the fear of abandonment, that I'll be left. There's the fear of rejection, that people aren't gonna like me, the fear of failure, which is huge. The fear of loss, which is all about price tag you're willing to pay. And then there's the fear of success, which to me is the number one fear with young people today,

Ari Gronich 9:08  

when you're talking about leaving yesterday behind, but using it as a reference library. How many people you know, and I know that we'll get an emotional trigger from a story, right? So they'll read a book fiction, we'll call it a fictional book. They'll read a fictional book. It'll evoke their emotions, they'll feel angry, they'll feel sad, they'll feel loved, they'll feel feel all kinds of feelings, right, from listening to that story. So the question becomes how do you turn a reference library into something other than a place to go have a pity party?

Richard Flint 9:51  

Well, it a lot of that depends on what I'm looking for. You know, I, I read a book The other day, and it was it was an emotional book. And I found myself on emotion with emotions. And when I finished the book, The question I asked myself is, what triggered these emotions? And what triggered the emotions and there was the story that reminded me of my childhood, which opened up a world of feelings. And the way that I was handled that is I've already worked through those emotions. Most people, except yesterday, they don't challenge yesterday. And if you never challenge yesterday, then it's difficult to learn from yesterday.

Ari Gronich 10:44  

That was really fascinating. And and I appreciate that. We're talking about working from mental down mind down, that doesn't necessarily, you know, mean, that you're not utilizing your emotions. Correct. Right. And so if you're not necessarily utilizing them as a hindrance, you're using them as a tool, how do you begin using the emotions that typically would be to tear down to build up? So things like anger and frustration and rage and all those things? How do you use those to your benefit versus your destruction?

Richard Flint 11:38  

Oh, you got to know where those emotions are coming from. Most of the emotions that the emotions that you were experienced in the day are coming from some experience from your yesterday that you've never dealt with. I believe that anything you don't complete in life has continuation. And when I was in the world of doing counseling, you know, people would come to me and they would be, they would be angry. And but they didn't understand where their anger was coming from. So what we did, we would have to find the beginning point of that anger, they never dealt with it. And if you don't deal with negative emotions, all you do is increase their power in your life. And once we can find and locate where that anger is coming from, then we can work there

Ari Gronich 12:32  

is are your programs going to be evergreen? Are you turning them into evergreen programs? And the reason I asked that is, I don't know exactly when your episode is going to air. And so I just want to make sure that the information is either going to be retroactively you know, available for them if if it's evergreen or not. I just want to make sure that they have the option of finding that so are you going to turn that into an available recording?

Richard Flint 13:04  

Yes, we record everything we do will be there. Okay. Awesome.

Ari Gronich 13:10  

That way in case you know, this is after January. We we don't losing anybody, you know. We don't want to lose anybody in translation. So

Richard Flint 13:24
