This weeks chapter review is all about how your Habits shape your identity and vice versa. Watch on YouTube "Whatever your identity is right now, you only believe it because you have proof of it. The more evidence, you have for a belief, the more strongly you will believe it. New identities require new evidence. If you keep casting the same votes, you've always cast, you're going to get the same results you've always had. If nothing changes, nothing is going to change. It is a simple two-step process: One. Decide the type of person you want to be. Two. Prove it to yourself with small wins. You have the power to change your beliefs about yourself. Your identity is not set in stone. Do you have a choice and every moment. You can choose the identity want to be in for today with the habits that you choose today. Habits can help you achieve all these things, but fundamentally they are not about having something. They are about becoming someone." James Clear Who are you becoming?  Share in the comments below.

"Habits are the compound interest of self-improvement. Getting 1% better every day counts for a lot in the long run.   Habits are doubled edge sword. They can work for you or against you, which is why understanding the details is essential. Small changes often appear to make no difference until you cross a critical threshold. The most powerful outcomes of any compounding process are delayed. You need to be patient. An atomic habit is a little habit that is part of a larger system. Just as atoms are the building blocks of molecules, atomic habits are the building blocks of remarkable results. If you want, better results, then forget about setting goals. Focus on your system instead. You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems." James Clear Make sure you watch to the very end.

You still need goals, just a little different perspective for success. @flourishmom   #success #selfimprovement #books #mindset #bestseller #flourish

It is the source of the greatest achievements and discoveries in history. It is an intelligence that is not taught in our schools, nor analyzed by professors, but most all of us, at some point, have had glimpses of it in our own experience" "Over the centuries, people placed a wall around such mastery. They've called it genius and have thought of it as in accessible. They have seen it as a product of privilege, inborn, talent, or just the right alignment of the stars. They have made it seem as if it were as elusive as magic. But that wall is imaginary. This is the real secret: the brain that we possess is the work of 6 million years of development, and more than anything else, this evolution of the brain is designed to lead us to mastery, the latent power within us all."

Strengthen your Intuition through Self-Care.  There is a famous speech by Steve Jobs on how we all already know what we truly want from life.  This chapter reminded me of that: "Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.  They somehow already know what you truly want to become.  Everything else is secondary." Steve Jobs But...you need to trust yourself.  This chapter gives a few tips on how you can do so by strengthening yourself physically and mentally.  Trust your instinct, listen to your body and connect the dots. Think about a time that you didn't trust your intuition, or as I like to call it, my 'spider senses.'  That was your intuition that already knew the decision you "should" have made.  There will be a next time too, be ready.

Today we review Brain Power as outlined in the best selling book by Dr. Tara Swart,  and how you can utilize it to it's fullest potential.  

Today we discuss the power of visualization as outlined in the best selling book by Dr. Tara Swart,  The Source. ➡️ Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/MkMpciqTz0A   "Visualization helps us to channel the law of attraction, and to act from a perspective of abundance and optimism. It works by raising our awareness, directing focused attention to the things we want most in life, and overcoming the brains desire to protect itself from new or difficult situation." If you think that visualization seems a bit too mystical, think about your own situation.  Everything from planning a trip, decorating for the holidays or simply planning the evenings dinner menu requires you first envision what the 'big picture' looks like.  Every night you go to sleep and dream, you are visualizing and feeling your dreams with all your senses. Now, imagine what you are visualizing from day to day.  Is it positive or negative?  You are actually creating your future self each day, while building either abundance or scarcity.  You deserve to have a fulfilling life and it begins with the power of the made up mind. "Attract what you expect, reflect what you desire, become what you respect, mirror what you admire."  Unknown Live an Inspired Life and remember - Visualizing is Realizing. #inspiration  #self   #psychology  #flourish #visualization  #science #success #books #bestseller #empowement #selfcare #personaldevelopment #growth #motivational #goals #bookreview     @flourishmom   Follow Flourish at the links below: ➡️ https://www.Flourish.Mom ➡️ Facebook https://www.Facebook.Com/Flourish.Mom ➡️ Instagram: https://www.Instagram.com/FlourishMom   Full Playlist:  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXUsbWr1FYb_lBN7CzuWLJsmM2Zbroij4 Visualize.

This weeks episode gives you some great takeaways on how to stay calm under pressure so that you can become the success you deserve to be!

Your mind is one of your most precious possessions; don't give it up by default! Think your own thoughts, not what you believe others want you to think. Take back your power! It is so important to protect your individuality and your healthy well-being. Let your thoughts be free; don't censor them and criticize them and hate yourself if they don't always fall in with a majority opinion, as you know it. You owe it to yourself to be an individual. You owe it to yourself to keep your mind, body and spirit strong. You owe it to yourself to live an inspired Life. ➡️ Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/YE3ASuiNxa4     #inspiration  #selfcare   #power  #flourish #wednesdaymotivation #empowerment @flourishmom  Follow Flourish at the links below: ➡️ https://www.Flourish.Mom ➡️ Facebook https://www.Facebook.Com/Flourish.Mom ➡️ Instagram: https://www.Instagram.com/FlourishMom DISCLAIMER: Diane Planidin's -  The Flourish Show Podcast and YouTube channel provide general information, inspiration, and entertainment, and are not intended to replace the advice, diagnosis, or treatment of a qualified professional, including but not limited to physicians, professional coaches, and psychotherapists.
