Tobacco companies have long used deceptive marketing in ever-changing ways to lure new customers into buying and becoming addicted to their dangerous products. They know how to appeal to different populations, and it has worked with deadly results. TSET is launching a new media campaign that exposes how the tobacco industry uses “shapeshifting” marketing to make tobacco and vape products seem appealing to people of different ages and communities. Episode guests will include TSET Health Communication Manager Chase Harvick, who will speak about the Shapeshifter campaign; Donald Richardson of Guiding Right, a local agency that helps African Americans and others break free from tobacco use and other health threats, and Purcell High School students Carter Goldston and Alexis Wenthold on the influences that draw teens to vaping and tobacco use, and how to counteract those influences.
Governing by the will of the people is assumed in democracy – unless preemption is involved. Such is the case with local tobacco laws in Oklahoma cities. Preemption is when a higher level of government limits or eliminates the power of a lower level of government to regulate on a particular issue. Since 1987, Oklahoma cities and towns have been prohibited from adopting tobacco restriction ordinances that go beyond state law. So local municipal leaders who want to further protect residents from harmful tobacco use in public places cannot do so. This TSET Better Health Podcast episode explores the public health and local governance issue with Doug Matheny, a policy expert at the TSET Health Promotion Research Center, Tahlequah City Councilman Stephen Highers, and Thomas Larson, TSET director of public information and outreach.
Ryan and Tip discuss the newly announced TSET grant, and what it means for future development at Turkey Mountain.
We hear it every holiday season – it's the most wonderful time of the year. But it's not for those who are grieving a loss or are feeling stressed out or alone during the holidays. It can also be a challenging time for our physical health, when time off and holiday gatherings can make it easy to let healthy habits slide by the wayside. Check out the next episode of the TSET Better Health Podcast and find ways to boost your mental, emotional and physical wellness during the holidays, so this truly can become the happiest time of the year. Find out how from Executive Director Erin Engelke and Clinical Director Heather Gaglio of Calm Waters Center for Children and Families, who will offer great ways to boost mental and emotional well-being during the holidays; Kym Hardin of Healthy Schools Oklahoma, who will help us stay physically active into the new year; and TSET's own Dylan Jasna, who will share new and tasty nutritional resources from Shape Your Future.
We all know that eating well-balanced nutritious meals is important for energy and good health. But that can be difficult for Oklahomans who rely on dollar and convenience stores for their groceries because they lack access to faraway supermarkets. Fortunately, families and individuals can shop for healthy foods at smaller stores, and this episode's guests provide resources, strategies, and services available to help. Pat Dehart, a diabetes educator nurse, walks us through what healthy options are available in dollar and convenient stores. Lydia Kelley, executive director of Loaves & Fishes, details the services her client-choice food pantry provides, who can qualify, and why it's so meaningful. And Dylan Jasna, new member of the TSET Health Communication team, shares the wealth of resources available through Shape Your Future, a healthy lifestyle promotion program of TSET.

TSET's commitment to healthier communities throughout Oklahoma bears repeating. So the TSET Better Health Podcast will present an encore presentation of the “TSET Community Impact” episode that featured stories of partnerships between TSET Healthy Living Program grantees and local community members that helped bring new school playground equipment to Prague, sidewalks to Newkirk for pedestrian safety, increased healthy food access to small and large communities in Cleveland County and a host of healthier environments in Muskogee. The episode presents a great opportunity to look back at community impacts as TSET and its grantees look forward to both new and continuing opportunities for better health in Oklahoma in the months and years ahead.

There are a myriad of reasons for procrastination and in order to help push past its potential downward spiral, you need to understand the reasons you procrastinate. Once you understand the reasons behind your procrastination, you can take steps to alleviate and eliminate it, so you can move forward. nnProcrastination can be a threat to your professional productivity and your livelihood. nnWhy do you procrastinate? nThere are many who believe procrastination is a time management issue, but it's not – it's an emotional issue. When you delve into the emotional reasons you procrastinate you can move past it. nnHere are five reasons people procrastinate: n1.tYou're not sure the project is worth the perceived effort you need to put in. If you're not invested in the task you can tell yourself “it's not worth it.” You may be right, but you need to determine how missing this deadline could impact your future self and business. nn2.tYou fear failure. This is a major reason for procrastination – if you don't start, you can't fail. Your fear keeps you frozen. Lack of training or knowledge of the overall project could add to that fear. nn3.tYou are already overextended, but still you said “yes” to a new project. If you are already overwhelmed, and you add another project, procrastination is almost sure to follow. nn4.tYour perfectionist tendencies rise up. If you're concerned that your efforts won't yield 100% satisfaction, you are afraid to start. The desire to produce a perfect project helps assure you don't work on it. nn5.tYour time management skills are lacking. If you procrastinate because you are overwhelmed, it could be because you truly do have too many tasks on your plate. However, you could be procrastinating because you don't know how to properly manage your time and your tasks. Additionally, if you haven't written down all of the tasks you need to do, you could be imaging you have more to do than you truly do. Write down everything you need to get done and you may see it's not as overwhelming as you imagined. Prioritize everything on your list with the most important items that will help you make progress on your goals (revenue generation, for example). How many items are on your list that can be delegated – and delegate them?nnTo help you be even more effective and efficient, so you can achieve your goals at an accelerated rate, you can delegate more to your team members than you have or might think possible. Stop holding on to things that can be done by someone else and do only those activities that you can do and can't be done by anyone else. Stop doing revenue generation / business development avoidance activities and delegate more! You should be doing only those activities that only you can do and nobody else can.

Change can trigger powerful emotions. For some, change makes them feel as though they are out of control, that they are being dragged toward a very steep rock face or cliff, toward which they have no control. nn“Going with the flow” is a mantra some people chant, but for many going with the flow is not easy to do and, in fact, causes them undue stress. Get rid of the “go with the flow” mindset and try these 3 mindset adjustments, I'm about to share with you, to help you better cope with change, as change is constant. nn1.tChange is a process. When you deal with change, it's not as easy as flipping a switch and moving from one way of doing something to a completely different way.

If you're facing a change with a negative attitude, the change will be more difficult and fraught with challenges. Look at the change positively.

Right!nn6.tTry to relax. If you know yourself and know that you are uptight when it comes to any switch in a routine or any type of change, you will automatically want to reject the change you're facing. Try to relax.

I can hear you groaning, but if you get up earlier you may get more done. Also, getting up before everyone in the house wakes up will give you solitude and will make you feel less rushed. If you have always wanted to practice yoga or take a long walk with the dog, read a book, sit on the deck with the paper and your coffee but you never seem to have the time, getting up earlier will be your gift to yourself. As you're sipping your coffee consider eating breakfast. Skipping meals may make you overeat later. However, if you're doing intermittent fasting, schedule your day so you have time later in the morning to break your fast. nn2.tGet the most challenging project out of the way first. If you know you have a pressing task or project to complete, putting it off until the end of the day won't make it go away. Putting it off will only make it so you're working on a challenging project when you're tired from the day. The harder projects won't go away and putting them off will only drain your mental energy because they will still be there tapping you on the shoulder, waiting for you to complete it. If you have been putting business development calls off until later in the day, do them first thing and be done with them for the day. Brian Tracy calls this “Eating that Frog.” Doing uncomfortable activities first thing in our business day can be very beneficial.nn3.tEat it one bite at a time. If you have a huge project ahead of you, eat it one bite at a time. Take your large project and break it down into manageable tasks. Don't look at “Write a book,” for example, as something you need to complete in one sitting. Take your “write a book” project and break it down into smaller “meals.” For example: choose a title, write chapter titles, craft the back-cover copy, look for your author photo, make note of the beginning, middle and the end, so you have points to work toward. nn4.tYou will procrastinate. There are a myriad of reasons why you will procrastinate, and you will. We all do. When you factor in procrastination time you won't feel frantic if you find yourself taking fifteen or thirty minutes to “just do nothing.” Don't schedule yourself so tightly that you don't have time to just not feel like working for a few minutes. Call it cushion time, break time, or whatever you want. nn5.tMake a list. I've found that when I make a list, my projects aren't as overwhelming. Make a list and you will get more done – that is a proven fact. Write down a goal, write down tasks and you are more likely to complete them. A goal, written down, is no longer a vague thought – it is an object of substance. nn6.tTake a break. Yes, taking a break will help with your focus. You cannot work for eight hours straight without a break. You truly don't want to work more than two hours without a break. Every hour, or every two hours, get up and move around. Do jumping jacks, sit-ups, push-ups against the wall, walk around the building or block, stretch, go get more water (most of us don't drink enough water during the day).

It's not enough to announce to the Universe, “I'd like to achieve XYZ.” You need to put in the effort to help that dream become a reality. nnHow can you manifest your desires as a way of getting things done? Here are a few steps you can take: nn•tSet your intentions. You need to be abundantly clear on the goal you want to achieve. You can't just say, “I want to be rich.” You need to say, “I want to earn $600,000 in my business by year end.” This is a clear intention and one to which you can put measures in place to help you move toward milestones. nn•tOpen yourself up. You need to move past your past. Don't focus on what you may have tried to manifest in the past and were unable to. Look toward the future. You can't change the past, but you can write your future. Believe you can achieve your goal(s), open your heart and mind, and let in the limitless possibilities. nn•tRaise your vibration. Your vibration is literally your personal energy. We are surrounded by energies every moment of our daily lives. When you want to manifest a desire to get things done you want to focus on the energies surrounding you and your own energies, and wrap them around what you want to manifest. How can you raise your vibration? Do something you love – sing, dance, read or write, cook, spend time with those who fill your soul with love and light. Amping up your vibration opens you up to the energies of the Universe.nn•tTrust and let go. If you don't trust in a higher power or in your energies and vibration, your desire to manifest will be blocked. Trust that whatever happens is happening for a reason. The Universe will be on the lookout for your best interests and will support and protect you. What you need to do is get out of your own way and allow the intentions you're manifesting to come to you. If you second guess and question, your vibrations will block your intentions.nnNow that you know how to work on manifesting your desires to get things done you may need to, or want to, try these five steps to help with your manifestation. nn1.tWhere are you in your life right now? What have you done to get to your current station or situation? The desires you're manifesting come from who you are as a person and where you've been. Manifesting on the future requires you to reflect on your past. nn2.tVisualize where you want to be.

Covid is up, tuition is up, TSET effectiveness is in question, Canoo incentives are secret, and we still don't have an Attorney General.

OK has roughly doubled the number of new diagnoses since the beginning of June. Likely due to Delta variant (as there is an outbreak in Missouri), but we can't know for sure because Oklahoma is dead last for genomic sequencing, with just 0.19% of total cases sequenced. So, they're working on that. Good news is, vaccinated folks are not contracting the virus. OK only at 37% vaccinated, though, so there's a lot of people out there who are “eligible to get the virus” https://nondoc.com/2021/06/22/regents-advance-tuition-increase-ou-health-merger/ (OU increases tuition) (NonDoc) (avg of $248 per year for in-state, $671 per year out-of-state) Timing is just coincidental, but also not great given last week's news about NonDoc suing OU to release two reports from Jones Day law firm, one of which has to do with misreporting or fabricating of fundraising data...which impacts the university budget, even if just a little. https://www.oklahoman.com/story/news/2021/06/22/oklahoma-legislative-watchdog-office-questions-tobacco-settlement-endowment-spending/7770584002/ (LOFT report questions the effectiveness of TSET )and says some of its impact cannot be measured. OK is Top 10 for tobacco cessation spending...but despite that, we're also still Top 10 for number of adults and youth who use tobacco But is part of the blame on lawmakers? They could increase the tax on tobacco products and e-cigarettes—in fact, TSET asked them to do it—but they haven't. But remember, last year the legislature sent a state question to the ballot (SQ814) asking voters to give them [the legislature] more access to TSET funds. Voters rejected the measure...and now the legislature is coming after TSET again. If nothing else, this seems suspicious.

TSET welcomes its first national guest and public health powerhouse, Dr. Steven A. Schroeder, to discuss the importance of prevention and why it should be a priority in Oklahoma and the United States. Dr. Schroeder wrote the 2007 Shattuck Lecture "We Can Do Better," a landmark report on the status of health and mortality in America. His findings suggest that despite high health care spending and standards, the United States ranks poorly in health rankings compared to the rest oe world. Where trauma care and disease treatment are critical components of health and medicine, prevention efforts save money, health and lives. Bruce Benjamin, Vice-Chair of the TSET Board of Directors, and Julie Bisbee, TSET Executive Director, share how TSET's recent foray into youth prevention efforts is helping to create a healthier Oklahoma for generations to come.

[[:encoded, "Putting in a full, productive workday is sometimes easier said than done. Despite the best of intentions, some days can just seem to get away from you – turning into emergency response days or employee management days that – although necessary to keep things running smoothly – nevertheless take away from the precious time you have available to complete what is on your to-do list. nnUnmanaged distractions can slowly chip away at your ability to focus on necessary, high payoff activities that move your business toward success. In some cases, those distractions can actually lead to calculation errors or financial errors that cost you big time in the long run. If you find yourself continually interrupted by people or your own thoughts, it can also take a toll on your overall attitude and even your mental state at the office. The bottom line is: if you always feel unsettled and anxious about getting interrupted, it will keep you from doing your best work. nnSo, how can you reduce distractions and avoid interruptions? Is it even possible to create a work environment that is productive and avoids emergencies altogether? nnSet Your Team and Your Schedule Up for SuccessnnWhile it is virtually impossible to eliminate all of the last-minute issues that crop up during the week (you are after all a business owner with a busy schedule and a company to run, and if issues arise you need to be the one with the last word on how they are handled), it is definitely possible to structure your business in such a way as to significantly reduce the amount of times you are pulled away from productive tasks to focus on something unplanned. nnTo improve your workplace schedule and eliminate distractions and interruptions, try implementing one or more of these 4 proven productivity tips I'm going to share with you now:nn1.tSchedule your day in blocks of 60-90 minutes at a time whenever possible. This allows you to focus on specific big-picture tasks without being distracted, since there are consistent breaks in your day between these blocks where you can get refocused on the next activities by fully closing out the previous activity. For shorter tasks, consider 10-15-minute sprints, where you can knock out several quick but vital tasks (answering emails, returning client calls, and more) without fear of interruptions. Scheduling meetings with the team is a time block that can take 10-30 minutes, so nobody interrupts anyone with things that can be handled in a scheduled meeting.nn2.tRemove technology from the equation. As great as email, cell phones, computers, virtual calendars, and social media may be, they also pose a significant threat to your to do-list. When you see or hear a message alert pop up on your phone or laptop, for example, your brain subconsciously becomes distracted from the work you are currently focusing on, causing you to multitask mentally whether you intend to or not. Studies show that the average person checks in on their email and digital notifications every six minutes. By removing those distractions and scheduling time blocks specifically for email and technology-related things, you will eliminate the need to multitask and will allow yourself to focus solely on the work in front of you. I recommend two time blocks to check email and the first one is not first thing in the morning. The first time block should be around 10:00 or 11:00am and then the second time block should be around 4:00pm. nn3.tSet your employees up for self-management success. When your team is able to self-regulate, they will be less likely to interrupt you to handle small questions and concerns. Consider training and equipping them to handle general, routine things to better free up your schedule for those tasks that only you can handle.

Despite the best of intentions, some days can just seem to get away from you – turning into emergency response days or employee management days that – although necessary to keep things running smoothly – nevertheless take away from the precious time you have available to complete what is on your to-do list. nnUnmanaged distractions can slowly chip away at your ability to focus on necessary, high payoff activities that move your business toward success. In some cases, those distractions can actually lead to calculation errors or financial errors that cost you big time in the long run. If you find yourself continually interrupted by people or your own thoughts, it can also take a toll on your overall attitude and even your mental state at the office. The bottom line is: if you always feel unsettled and anxious about getting interrupted, it will keep you from doing your best work. nnSo, how can you reduce distractions and avoid interruptions? Is it even possible to create a work environment that is productive and avoids emergencies altogether? nnSet Your Team and Your Schedule Up for SuccessnnWhile it is virtually impossible to eliminate all of the last-minute issues that crop up during the week (you are after all a business owner with a busy schedule and a company to run, and if issues arise you need to be the one with the last word on how they are handled), it is definitely possible to structure your business in such a way as to significantly reduce the amount of times you are pulled away from productive tasks to focus on something unplanned. nnTo improve your workplace schedule and eliminate distractions and interruptions, try implementing one or more of these 4 proven productivity tips I'm going to share with you now:nn1.tSchedule your day in blocks of 60-90 minutes at a time whenever possible. This allows you to focus on specific big-picture tasks without being distracted, since there are consistent breaks in your day between these blocks where you can get refocused on the next activities by fully closing out the previous activity. For shorter tasks, consider 10-15-minute sprints, where you can knock out several quick but vital tasks (answering emails, returning client calls, and more) without fear of interruptions. Scheduling meetings with the team is a time block that can take 10-30 minutes, so nobody interrupts anyone with things that can be handled in a scheduled meeting.nn2.tRemove technology from the equation. As great as email, cell phones, computers, virtual calendars, and social media may be, they also pose a significant threat to your to do-list. When you see or hear a message alert pop up on your phone or laptop, for example, your brain subconsciously becomes distracted from the work you are currently focusing on, causing you to multitask mentally whether you intend to or not. Studies show that the average person checks in on their email and digital notifications every six minutes. By removing those distractions and scheduling time blocks specifically for email and technology-related things, you will eliminate the need to multitask and will allow yourself to focus solely on the work in front of you. I recommend two time blocks to check email and the first one is not first thing in the morning. The first time block should be around 10:00 or 11:00am and then the second time block should be around 4:00pm. nn3.tSet your employees up for self-management success. When your team is able to self-regulate, they will be less likely to interrupt you to handle small questions and concerns. Consider training and equipping them to handle general, routine things to better free up your schedule for those tasks that only you can handle.

Food insecurity in Oklahoma was higher than the national average before the pandemic. Since then, the need for food access has only increased, especially in rural areas and smaller cities in Oklahoma. This episode highlights a few inspiring stories from recipients of the 2020 TSET Food Systems Impact Grants. These projects make a little go a long way: RSVP of Enid, a multifaceted food and services resource center for seniors, expanded their operation to provide necessary assistance to local seniors as they age in place. In Laverne, Oklahoma, Collective Roots formed as a food security cooperative to connect local farmers and food producers with consumers in a rural area with limited food access. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Ottawa County tripled the number of meals they serve to meet the needs of children and families during the pandemic. Learn about the resilience of rural Oklahoma in this month’s episode of the TSET Better Health Podcast. TSET is participating in a virtual panel discussion on food insecurity and Oklahoma's children on May 11th.

Swap Up is an exciting new statewide education campaign from the TSET Healthy Youth Initiative. Focused on youth nutrition and obesity prevention, Swap Up is collaboration between TSET and Rescue Agency and is tailored to the specific health needs of Oklahomans 13-18. Join James and Cate as they pull back the curtain on this groundbreaking campaign as it positions itself to help build a brighter future for Oklahoma youth. Hear from guests Julie Bisbee, TSET Executive Director; Jeff Jordan, Rescue Agency founder; and Kelly Day, Rescue Agency Senior Creative Director. Music licensed through PremiumBeat. Transcript and music credits available at tset.ok.gov/podcast.
Seasons greetings from TSET! This month, James and Cate spread holiday cheer with guests Jae Morrison and Valarie Carter. Jae Morrison, an obesity prevention specialist for the Oklahoma State Department of Health, talks about ways to stay physically active during the winter season and best practices for sticking to your New Year’s resolutions. Valarie Carter, chef and culinary medicine instructor for the OU-TU School of Community Medicine, shares what culinary medicine is, which ingredients are best to use for the season, and a couple of healthy and tasty holiday recipes. From TSET, have a happy and healthy holiday!
In honor of the Great American Smokeout, a national holiday to encourage tobacco cessation for one day, James and Cate explore the current state of youth vaping with advocates and professionals alike. Hear conversations with Rescue founder Jeff Jordan and Tulsa Public Schools physical education coordinator Jen Sanders about the myths, facts, figures and advice for youth vaping. Paola Klein of the Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline describes the tools and strategies that allows OTH to be so successful. Later, TSET Executive Director Julie Bisbee joins in to celebrate the 20th anniversary of TSET’s creation and youth vaping has made TSET’s mission more important than ever.
Oklahoma voters rejected State Question 814. It would have taken payments away from the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust, which funds public health measures like tobacco cessation and cancer research, and put them toward Medicaid expansion. The state is expected to see a $1 billion infusion of federal health funding, but has to put in about $150 million first. Without that TSET funding, lawmakers will have to find another source.
In addition to funding grants that transform schools and communities, TSET plays a big role in advancing cutting-edge scientific research in Oklahoma. Directors from Stephenson Cancer Center, Health Promotion Research Center and Oklahoma Center for Adult Stem Cell Research share the work they do to save lives and improve health statewide.
State Question 814 would route money away from a public health and tobacco cessation program, using it to pay for Oklahoma's Medicaid expansion. This pitch isn't new, nor is the attempt to divert money out of the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust, otherwise known as TSET.
On this episode of the OML Podcast Mike Fina speaks with Julie Bisbee, executive director for the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust (TSET), about the variety of programs the trust manages, its resources for cities and towns, and an upcoming state question that could impact TSET's funding.
Our next four episodes will focus on local and statewide races that are still a tossup. This week, Carmen Forman and Kayla Branch explain what voters need to know about State Questions 814 and 805. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

School is back in session, and times are tough for all of us. This episode of the TSET Better Health Podcast provides listeners with informative interviews and lists of resources for those affected by food insecurity and COVID-19. Representatives from the Regional Food Bank and Hunger Free Oklahoma share the wide array of resources available to struggling Oklahomans, including senior meal boxes, prescriptions, food pantries, and more. Carrie Slatton-Hodges of the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services details all the services the agency provides in the age of COVID-19. Additionally, TSET’s own Health Communication Manager Kelli Brodersen shares exciting developments in TSET’s new healthy youth and food access initiatives.
The TSET Healthy Living Program (HLP) and its coordinators have transformed communities across Oklahoma. Join James and Cate as they travel the state to share first-person perspectives of these grant-funded initiatives:Muskogee has used the TSET HLP to implement vast changes from complete streets, childhood nutrition, community gardens and wellness in the workplace. The coordinator in Newkirk helped city leaders and advocates secure a large grant to connect the community through safe sidewalks. Cleveland County has made immense progress in increasing nutritional food access in rural areas, which not only improves the health of residents but also supports local farmers and the economy. Prague Elementary School has reimagined what education can be with the help of TSET HLP coordinators by incorporating physical activity into the learning process.TSET HLP coordinators work with community leaders to implement strategic projects that create generational change. Tune in to learn more about TSET’s impact on the lives of everyday Oklahomans.

Guest Host Tim West talks with the Executive Director of Oklahoma's Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust, Julie Bisbee. TSET was established after the historic settlement between "Big Tobacco" and 46 states. Voters in 2000 approved the creation of the Oklahoma Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust, making Oklahoma the first state to protect its Master Settlement Agreement payments in a constitutional trust. Today's Road to Rural Prosperity is powered by the Petroleum Alliance of Oklahoma.
Welcome to the TSET Better Health Podcast! Executive director Julie Bisbee and host James Tyree share information about TSET's mission and what to expect from the podcast moving forward. Join us for Better Lives and Better Health!
Health communication consultant James Tyree and intern Cate Howell co-host this episode about Tobacco 21, the new federal law restricting sale of tobacco products to people under the age of 21. After taking a look at the research behind how and why the law originated, Cate shares an interview with Dr. Amy Cohn of the Oklahoma Tobacco Research Center. Dr. Cohn explains why this is the first step toward a broader movement in limiting tobacco use and how it affects youth and young adults. Then, James shares a conversation he had with Nancy Packwood, owner of Norman convenient store Alameda Market and Tackle, who discusses her perspective on how the new law has affected her business and why she supports it. Cate closes out the episode by sharing how and why she came up with the TSET podcast and how the TSET team hopes our listeners will benefit from it.
TSET's Director of Public Information & Outreach Thomas Larson and Healthy Incentive Grants (Schools) Program Manager Sharon Howard speak about their work to help schools and programs beyond.
[[:encoded, "A limiting belief is a belief that holds you back from realizing your full potential. They can be hard to spot, but for those who suffer from them, they can be very debilitating and troublesome. So how do you identify them, and how do you change them?nnThe first thing that we will talk about is how to spot them. nnHow to Identify a ‘Limiting Belief'nA limiting belief is almost always a negative thing. It usually manifests itself as a sub-conscious thought that keeps you from trying something. Most of the time, such a belief causes you to give up before you try, simply because you believe that you are no good at. An example could be math… if you have a limiting belief that you are ‘bad at math', then you may not even attempt to comprehend an in-depth math problem. nnLimiting beliefs usually have roots in our past experiences. Perhaps someone once told you that you were bad at it, and hearing that really affected you? Or maybe you attempted it once long ago, and failed… so now you believe that you are inherently ‘bad' at whatever it is you tried. Maybe you took a class on it in school, and failed the class… so you believe within your own mind that there is absolutely NO way that you could ever be good at that particular subject. Maybe you have always received 1-2 referrals every time you asked so you believe that is all you will ever get when you ask. nnIdentifying such a belief is not always easy, but it is essential to be honest with yourself. Anything that you believe is not worth trying is usually tied to a limiting belief, and you usually believe the way you do because of something that happened in the past. nnHow to Get Past ItnGetting past such a belief can be mentally challenging, because odds are good that you have spent a great deal of time avoiding it or putting yourself down about it or haven't ever thought outside the box and beyond it. Getting past such a mental roadblock can definitely be accomplished, but you have got to use logic… and you are often going to have to bypass your emotions or feelings of inferiority in the process. nnBegin by thinking about WHY you have this belief. Is it because of something that somebody said? Is it because of something that someone has done? Is it because you have failed at it in the past? Is it because you kept getting the same outcome you now don't expect more is possible? Any number of these things could have happened, but it is important that you do not let these things define who you are or what you can accomplish. When faced with something that you do not believe you can achieve, it is important to think about WHY you feel the way you do. Once you isolate the reason for your limiting belief, you can generally figure out whether it is all emotional, or whether it has any basis in fact. Here are some questions to ask yourself as you continue through the process…nn•tWhy do you feel like you cannot accomplish this?n•tWhat has happened that led you to limit your own ability to succeed in this area?n•tIs this belief based on actual facts, or mostly on emotion?n•tIf you are not able to accomplish it now, what would it take to get you past it?n•tBeing as logical as possible, do you believe that you could overcome this limitation if you gave yourself a few good chances, educated yourself, and practiced?n•tIf you expected more, could you get more and be more?n•tWho can help you identify limiting beliefs you don't even know you have?nnLimiting beliefs are almost ALWAYS grounded in our emotions, and usually have little logical basis. The simple fact is this… there is almost NOTHING that you cannot accomplish if you…nn1.tSet your mind to itn2.tDetermine within yourself NOT to give upn3.tLearn as much as you cann4.tExpect a different, better, and bigger outcomen5.tPractice until you get it rightnnWhy Is It Important Support the show
