I think it's safe to say that we all want to be at our best, I know I want to be my best.  It takes a conscious effort to do that.  Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11) had a great post that got me zeroed in on this. He shared this thought: “No one ever became their best by focusing on someone else's flaws.  Look for the best in others.” At times I will focus my attention towards others flaws. Blaming them for things, getting upset about it, etc.  I'm learning that it makes much better use of my time and mental well-being to focus on improving my own flaws (which are many) compared to worrying about what others are doing wrong. I think the world (especially our own little part of it), would be a lot better if we took this to heart.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  

Craig Meriwether, a hypnotherapist, delves into the transformative power of therapeutic hypnosis and its role in self-healing. He shares how hypnotherapy helps reprogram the subconscious mind, empowering individuals to reshape their brain chemistry and overcome anxiety, fear, and depression rooted in past trauma. Through a compelling story of a client's journey to self-worth and productivity, Craig highlights the importance of daily practice, visualization, and mental rehearsal in creating lasting change. The conversation uncovers how fear and anxiety evolved as survival tools and emphasizes cultivating mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health to thrive. Takeaways Therapeutic hypnosis allows individuals to take control of their own healing process. Practice and mental rehearsal can help reprogram the subconscious mind. Changing brain chemistry through thoughts and memories can lead to emotional healing. Belief and mindset are important, but action and practice are necessary for personal growth and transformation. Anxiety, fear, and depression can be traced back to past experiences and childhood trauma. Practicing mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical health on a daily basis is essential for overall well-being. Fear and anxiety serve as evolutionary mechanisms for survival. Visualizing success and practicing who you want to be can lead to positive outcomes. The subconscious mind plays a crucial role in figuring out the process to achieve success. Quotes "You have the ability, you have the power to change that computer programming whenever you want." "Hypnotherapy in of itself isn't going to fix you. You're going to fix yourself." "You can pretend your way to mastery." "Your mind is trying to come up with scenarios to protect you." "Your mind and body thinks it's real and it'll start the process of turning on the stress response while you're trying to go to sleep." "Even if it's safer if you just stay hidden in your office and Bob gets the promotion."

Have you ever wondered what life would be like on the other side of your eating disorder? Not just surviving, sis, but truly living? Stay with me because today's podcast episode might just change everything for you. I want to welcome you back, friend, because Episode 181 is different & it's incredibly special to my heart. I'm speaking directly to you if you feel trapped by your eating disorder, especially if the thought of recovery feels overwhelming. I see you friend, I hear you, & most importantly, I have something transformative to share with you. Let me paint a picture that might feel familiar... You wake up thinking about food, your days are consumed by rules & restrictions. You're exhausted from fighting your body & just trying to survive this thing called life. & deep down, you dream of this freedom, but the thought of getting there...uhm...Do I know this place intimately, because I have lived there. & today I want to share something that could be your first step toward real freedom. Here's what I've discovered after working with hundreds of women in recovery. The reason most people stay stuck isn't lack of desire for freedom. It's not even lack of information. It's something much deeper. It's something that traditional treatment often misses completely. I've learned that it's in the transformation, it's the belief, it's in the not yet readiness that we actually find our place & that we heal. I can't put one word on it, like I can't give it this miraculous transformational word because it's a feeling that is just a feeling, it doesn't exist in terms of a word. When you feel empowered, when your soul feels awakened, & when your life is changed...truly changed because you've conquered your own mind & your own self. There is nothing like that. A feeling of inspiration, a feeling of liberation. & this revelation led me to create something super special for you. So today's mini pod episode is to introduce the masterclass that I'm doing tomorrow, November 13th at 2 p. m. Eastern, & it is not too late for you to join us. Can't wait to see you sis!

"The mere speculative conviction that it was our interest to be completely virtuous was not sufficient to prevent our slipping, and that the contrary habits must be broken, and good ones acquired and established before we can have any dependence on a steady, uniform rectitude of conduct." - Benjamin Franklin. In today's episode, we have fun interviewing one of the founding fathers of the United States, drafter and signer of the Declaration of Independence, and the first postmaster general of the United States, Benjamin Franklin.

We discuss Roy Baumeister's "Negativity Effect" and John Gottman's relationships' "4-Horsemen of Apocalypse."
