I'm so excited! Today I want to talk to you about
changing your attitude about the future.
This has totally worked
for me. I want to show you
what's going to change your future.
This! thinking about a
lemon. And here's why!
Click the image for the video.
Say you're depressed or
you have anxiety.
Or you have overwhelmed
all these negative emotions.
Probably whatever else you
can think of as well.
All stem from thinking
that things are not going to turn out so well.
So what do we do with that?
We just keep thinking
about how it's going to be bad.
How it's never going to change.
How it's never going to
be any different.
And never ever. They always do this. They always do that.
And kind of blaming the
world. And just sinking down further.
Instead of that, we need
to turn around.
It’s like a muscle. We
are exercising a muscle.
The emotional muscle of
depression. Of anger and resentment.
Whatever that feeling is,
we are exercising that feeling.
We need to stop
exercising that feeling.
And exercise with
another feeling. A positive one. The one we want.
How do we do that? If we
think that nothing's ever going to change?
Well you know you can
change things.
You know that if you get enough sleep.
If you eat well and start
working out.
Everything kind of floats.
And things are starting to get better.
What if you have that
positive stay all the time?
That positive outlook?
Here's how you do it.
So,
imagine that you have a lemon. I'm cutting it.
So you
have this lemon and you breathe it in.
Close your eyes.
Imagine
the lemon and just squeeze it and breathe in that lemon.
And if you do that for a
minute, what happens?
We'll do a little bit
longer okay.
Yes. Your mouth starts
salivating.
So your body is reacting
to this thought.
It's not even a real. You
know you don't have a real lemon.
I do!
Your body is
reacting to the thought of a lemon.
What we need to do when
we get into these grooves of negative emotions, we need to think about how we
want it to be. We need to think about
this lemon.
If we think about how we
want it to be and how it could change you.
If we were all thinking
a little bit more positively and we keep thinking about this lemon.
Our bodies are going to
start to react to that.
Instead of being angry
or frustrated, you're going to get calm and kind of excited about the
possibility of changing things. Instead of being an overwhelmed, you're going to actually realize you've got this. You've been through this
before.
You’ve been through worse
and you can do it.
So, I want to challenge
you.
The next time you have a
negative emotion, think about the lemon.
Think about how you want
it to be and really focus.
Squeeze it so that you
start salivating.
Start reacting to this
image of how you want it to be.
So that you can actually
empower yourself to make those changes and to change your future.
