Ep. 77 CHT # 7 (Part 1 of 2) You Are Causing Your Own Stress


Listen Later

Welcome back to The MVMNT!

Think of some things that "stress you out." Politics, unfortunate events like car trouble, relationship problems, money, home repairs.. None of which are fun things to deal with. You claim "this" or "that" stresses you out, failing to realize that those things just happen. They don't cause your stress. Your perspective on them is where the stress comes from. Literally what you tell yourself about things that happen is what decides whether they are good or bad. 

It seems like we all skate through life picking up as much stress as we can. Flat tire - bad. I'm stressed out. Gas prices sky rocket - bad. I'm stressed out. Some new law gets thrust upon us that we don't agree with - bad. I'm stressed out. 

Can you do anything RIGHT NOW to fix whatever the hell it is that you're stressed about? 

Yes? Good. Fix it and stop complaining. 

No? Good. Move on, stop filling your brain with shit that is just going to make you mad, move on, and stop complaining. 

Stop blaming other things for the stress in your life and take accountability knowing that you LET IT "stress you out!" Nothing can cause you stress unless you let it! 

Guys, we have full control over the things we CHOOSE to spend our time on. Whether that's reading about something some "idiot" did or said that pisses you off, or doing something productive with your time instead.. you have a choice. You can CHOOSE to fill your time with stuff that you KNOW is going to get under your skin, or you can let that shit go and do something that is going to make you better. 

We got fired up in this episode and are excited to bring part two to you! Until then, we hope y'all enjoy this part one episode of our CHT series and get some value out of it!
