Episode 3: Olivia's Story: Mindset

Listen Later

Olivia from Nebraska

Summary:

Olivia grew up in the city as a white girl in an all black neighborhood.  With a Mother aged 46 at her birth and an absent Father, her formative youth years looked a bit different than most midwestern kids.  Battling bullies, mental health, co-dependency, abandonment, a promising future lost to injury, homelessness and depression, Olivia's breakthrough teaches us the importance of mindset and that the power to change your life begins with YOU.    

Transformation Tip: The power of Mindset

Ways to Shift Your Mindset for Success:

  • Notice negative thoughts when they creep in and flip the switch on them.
  • Create positive self talk that supports the YOU, you want to be.
  • Determine the mindset you need to be your best self and act as if you already are (this is the most powerful and widely used by the world's most successful people).
  • Challenge your limiting beliefs (I can't, I'm not good at this, I'm a failure, success will never happen for me, money is hard to get, I will always live paycheck to paycheck, etc.)
  • Rewrite your limiting beliefs to break through them (I can and I will, I have many skills and talents, I am worthy of success, money comes to me easily, I have abundance in my life).
  • Visualize your goals and the success you want to see in your life.  Practice  meditating on achieving your goals every day.

    • Notes from Jess:

    Your mindset is the driving force behind who you are.  You've heard this phrase many times... "You are what you think you are".  This is the secret that separates the doers from the wannabe's; the millionaires from the poor; the victims from the victors.  Your negative thoughts and reactions to a situation say more about YOU than the person who triggered your behavior.  You cannot be offended unless you allow yourself to be. You need not remain a victim of the past unless you choose so.  You will not remain a failure unless you continue to label yourself as one.  DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF YOUR MIND!  What you think, you become.  Be careful what you allow yourself to focus on and think about.  Frame your thoughts carefully to live a life that pulls out your full potential...your authentic self.
