"Nobody improves the world without first improving themselves."

"Nothing will bring you peace; you must bring yourself to it."

"Joy is not in things, it is in us."

Today's Mind Bullet topic, YOU, builds off the past two episodes. In Nobody Cares, we examined the strange and often damaging beliefs we hold onto, and in Are You Hypnotized? we looked more deeply at the stories we tell ourselves that hold us back. The common denominator, of course, is YOU.

Things don't change; you change. There is no "out there," there is only in here. If you want the world to change, changing yourself is the only way. Whatever the problem, "you" is the answer."

Looking inward is the greatest gift you can give to yourself and the world.

Listen in to hear more about taking 100 percent responsibility for your life by understanding YOU are in control of your own thoughts, words, views and intensions, and using concentration and energy to focus on your own life experience.  Enjoy the episode!

"The greatest illusion you'll ever know is the 'reality' in which you believe."

Today's Mind Bullet centers around a massive concept: How hypnotized are you? 

We're all hypnotized, that is, we buy into beliefs about ourselves and the world around us—which isn't a bad thing. But if you're not experiencing your ideal life—if you're dissatisfied and unhappy—the first place to look is at those beliefs about yourself you hold so firmly. 

The idea of being hypnotized by our beliefs was touched upon in last week's episode, "Nobody Cares," which discussed how we carry around stories about ourselves, both fearing and expecting reactions from others. These stories are our beliefs, and what we believe has a direct effect on our happiness and self-worth. 

We believe our beliefs wholeheartedly; they touch upon everything in our lives — our self-worth, whether or not we're athletic, how and what we should eat, politics, attractiveness, etc. "I'm an introvert." "I'm destined to be overweight." "I'm not someone who takes on challenges."

If you're unhappy, it's time to check yourself and the beliefs that may be holding you back. If you continually reinforce a negative belief about yourself, you keep yourself trapped and stuck. But rewriting these beliefs can spark positive change.

Listen in to hear more about breaking the spell of the beliefs that have you hypnotized, and how intentionally crafting positive new habits will reshape the narrative and open you up to a slew of new, better beliefs. Enjoy the episode!

"You wouldn't worry so much about what others think of you if you knew how seldom they do." ~Eleanor Roosevelt

Today's topic is unexpectedly enlightening: Nobody cares. Nobody cares — and that's a good thing.

This subject was triggered by a book that was a joy to read called "Barbarian Days: A Surfing Life," by William Finnegan, a Pulitzer Prize-winning New Yorker columnist who chronicles his surfing adventures. At one point, worried about people finding out he was a "dumb surfer," he eventually came to the conclusion that "apparently, nobody cared."

Whether it's beliefs we carry around or perceptions of ourselves we strive to shape in the minds of others, the truth of the matter is, nobody really cares. 

MG once wrote a book, "The Three C's of Success," under a pen name, thinking, "Who am I to be writing about success?" Ultimately, he shouldn't have bothered with the pen name—nobody was judging.

Stephen King wrote a book under a pseudonym "Richard Bachman" because of a publisher's concern that he was being too prolific. Guess what? Everyone found out, and nobody cared!

We carry these stories around in our heads, believing we understand what other people are thinking about us, trying to shape the narrative, but this is wasted energy. Nobody cares—and that's a good thing.

Listen in to hear more about how even the smartest people make the mistake of carrying around judgments and fears about where others are coming from, preventing themselves from taking action when, in reality, nobody cares! Enjoy the episode!

"Self-efficacy is your first step toward goal achievement and following PARR is the key to self-efficacy."

Today's topic, efficacy, is especially relevant to new listeners and those starting out on their goal-achievement journey. Self-efficacy, in fact, is the ability to produce a desired result, as in a goal.

When attempting a goal, we all have to bridge a gap between where we are (X) and what we want to accomplish (Y). Surprisingly, this has less to do with discipline or motivation than it does with self-efficacy

How do we create the bridge from where we are to our desired destination? Self-efficacy is the key, and PARR (Plan, Act, Record, Reassess) is your golden ticket to self-efficacy.

Say your goal is to lose 30 pounds. To get from +30 to -30, following the Habit Factor methodology, you download the tracking sheet or use the tracking tool in the app. You decide on the habits that will get you to your goal and start tracking them. 

What does this have to do with self-efficacy? We've planned; now we're going to act. Each time you match your action with your target — and track this behavior on your tracking sheet —you are producing the desired result. This is the very definition of self-efficacy. If your target is to walk three miles a day and you accomplish this, you've won the day and you're on your way to your ultimate goal. 

Listen in to hear more about how habit tracking and PARR generate the self-efficacy you need to produce your desired results, elevating your own momentum, motivation, and self-esteem. Enjoy the episode!
