I'm back everyone! Let's dominate 2022!!

I can't believe it... but we are down to our last episode for Mental Mondays with Savanna Season 1! Huge thanks to all my listeners and supporters who've tuned in every Monday to improve and build their mental awareness, while bringing light to issues everyone faces on a daily basis and how we can conquer these problems! Based on all the information you received from the past 20 episodes, how are you going to now use that knowledge and speak life into the others around you?

I think the word “busy” is used way too often. Nowadays, being busy is fashionable, it's cool. Being busy is something that many of us wear as a badge of honor. We wear this badge similar to the type of badge that we wear when we've just had to stay up all night to finish something that we'd been procrastinating on. Being busy is not something that you should be proud of. It shouldn't be cool, and it shouldn't be the next conversation point of the day. Being busy is a mark of an inefficient and unproductive person. While many people that are busy are actually productive, 90% of the people that claim to be busy are needlessly busy. So strive to be productive, don't be busy. Busy people don't go places while productive people are successful.

Success is never a good teacher. You will always learn more from your failures than your successes. The thing is, all successful people were once failures. None of them got it right the first time and almost everyone doubted them, but they rose through those difficulties and built resilience, allowing them to become the person they are today.

WATCH THE STUTTERER HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m_VTZR5MU0 The most powerful barriers in our lives are the ones that we create. We, as human beings, fear that we will fail because we're not good enough. We fear we'll lose our relationships, that we'll be abandoned, that we'll be rejected … because we're not good enough. We fear intimacy for the very same reason — we might get rejected because we're not good enough. Even the fear of success is based on the worry that we're not good enough. The key to overcoming these barriers in your life, career, family, whatever challenge you are facing often means looking within and bringing about some change to reframe and gain a new perspective.

Honestly, we all have those days where we feel so weighed down by everything that goes on in life. Everything feels exhausting and you have no motivation to do anything whether it's completing the tasks in front of you, or even going out with friends and family. Many people are quick to immediately blame this low state on laziness. Then they try to find quick solutions online that will help them get back to work ASAP and fill the ditch that they feel like they're in right now. However, the best thing you can do while you're in this low state is to slow down, be gentle on yourself and allow yourself to heal! Trying to research ways to get back and running may not be the best thing to do in this situation, and it may help that ditch grow even bigger. Sometimes we just need to surrender and release all expectations that have been forced on ourselves, accepting ourselves for who we are right now!

So many times in life we tell ourselves that our value equals our circumstances. Society makes it a habit to tell us that our worth is based on our circumstances and if we mess up, it lowers dramatically. That's when I had to make a choice. I could either allow other people or events to define my worth or I could stand on the truth. And I want you to make that same decision right now! Are you going to let others decide how valuable you are and define you by your perceived failures? The truth is that we are all valuable. The world will tell you many lies, but despite that fact, I always believe that I am valuable despite my circumstances, and I carry something no one else has, and so do you. *GOFUNDME*- https://www.gofundme.com/f/melisas-miracle-fund?utm_source=whatsapp-visit&utm_medium=chat&utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet

This one's for all my folks who don't want to complete that essay, or have a hard time focusing on one task and getting it done without procrastinating! I usually struggle with the constant battle of procrastination where I would tend to cast off different tasks, like homework, chores, summer reading, even recording podcast episodes at times! But I've come to learn that later sometimes becomes never. Let me tell you that's way easier said than done and it's not that simple to break that procrastination cycle. But in this episode, we'll be breaking down the reasons why we procrastinate (and it has NOTHING to do with being lazy), debunk certain theories, and provide better techniques to handle procrastination (now all this information is coming from my own experiences where I've struggled with procrastination deeply and how I overcame that cycle and from professional studies that explain why humans wait until the very last minute to get things done!)

On average, experts say that we think around 60,000 to 80,000 thoughts every single day! Have you ever stopped to wonder how much are hurting us and how many are truly helping us?

There's nothing more powerful than a made-up mind. In fact, the human mind is the most powerful weapon a person possesses. The fact is, you can't control everything that goes on, but you can control how you react to it. And that's your greatest superpower!

So many people (including me!) struggle with not feeling good enough. Our high-powered culture across the world is so competitive and encourages us to look outside ourselves for our self-worth. But in this episode, I'm here to remind every single person that YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH! You don't need to look outside for your self-worth, it's hidden inside of you ❤️.

In this episode, I'm here to tell you that it's absolutely ok to not have your entire future planned out, or not knowing what you want to do with your life in general. Knowing what you want to do with your life is a special, unique process that you truly shouldn't rush just because others want you to go a certain way. But continue to explore different things and don't settle for anything less!

Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, Walt Disney, Serena Williams: What do all these people have in common? Some may say that they're all rich millionaires/billionaires. Others might look at this group and point out that they got really lucky in life. But beneath all the superficial facts, lies a mindset that only the successful, including them, possess and use as a liability towards their greatness.

Depending on what they are, our habits will either make us or break us. We become what we repeatedly do.

It's not about how talented or smart you are, and not just about how hard you work. It's about how long you can stay in the game, and so much more. This episode's for anyone who's been stuck or held back by self-doubt, fear, or limiting beliefs.

Sometimes, we forget that we can bring amazing things to communities and change lives by the little actions we do. So we stay at “the dock”, expecting others to make the change that we seek in this world. But by limiting your capability, you greatly decrease your potential because of the excuses you set for yourself. Remember, If you want to achieve greatness, stop asking for permission! Today is a Father's day special, so my dad joined me in this amazing and inspiring conversation of how you can achieve greatness and create positive change in your own society!

“Thoughts are simply sentences in your head. They are not facts, and don't determine the outcome of your life.” In today's episode, I discuss how you shouldn't let your fear control your life and your everyday circumstances.

“Don't be afraid of losing people. Be afraid of losing yourself by trying to please everyone around you.” In today's episode, I discuss the dangers of trying to please everyone around you and how you shouldn't focus on being a stranger to your true personality just to be accepted by other people. I also talk about how your individuality is the most beautiful part about you, so you shouldn't suppress that just to be accepted for something that you aren't. Be uniquely you!

The most harmful thing you could do to your body and your mind is to stay comfortable! In today's episode, I discuss the dangers of staying in your comfort zone and how fear may seem scary when actually, it's a necessary part of growth. Instead of avoiding change, I teach how to embrace it to gain more opportunities so you can reach your fullest potential!

In today's episode, Savanna talks about how no one is perfect and everyone has their weaknesses and flaws. But the greatest leaders harness their weaknesses to become their greatest superpowers. Instead of trying to fight or hide their weaknesses, Savanna teaches listeners how to turn their weakness into their greatest superpower, using this mentality to better themselves and become stronger in their character and rise above the obstacles in life.
