I have bad news for you today, and it’s a good thing.
It goes without saying the world is f@cked up right now. Gas prices are stupid high. Inflation is “going to the moon”. Russia is being a d!ck. Texas is on fire.
The list could go on and on.
My anxiety just spiked up writing that. Did yours too?
If it did, that’s okay. A lot of wild sh!t is going on right now.
But this gives us the perfect opportunity to practice emotional discipline.
Emotional discipline: You have the power to choose how you feel.
Sure you can feel doom and gloom about everything. That’s your god-given right, but that’s a low frequency to operate in.
And if you operate in a low frequency what else would be dragged down? Your emotions? Relationships? Income?
Since you have the power to choose how you feel, why not choose to feel optimistic.
This is a much higher frequency to operate and live in. Here’s what Forbes has to say about optimistic people…
“They are genuinely happier, healthier, more attractive people. They have an energetic sparkle that draws everyone to want to be around them.“
I guess you could say “I’m sparkly” cause I’m an optimistic person. Probably just like you.
And look, I’m not saying what’s happening in the world is a good thing. My heart goes out to the people affected by Russia, and the fires blazing in Texas.
But those things are out of my control, so why should I put my energy and focus into them?
The only thing in control is my attitude.
The media can’t control it. Big tech can’t control it. And the government can’t control it either.
I’m the ONE in control.
The big takeaway I want you to get from today’s message is that everything is gonna be okay.
Focus on your goals, mission, and purpose.
The other stuff that’s going on in the world today is just background noise.
Background noise that can easily be ignored.
Always rootin’ for your success,
Bedros
