So what I'm hearing in my spirit is that women can't believe because they are so focused on the how.
How do I do this? How do I become that woman in my career? How do I become that wife, that mother? How do I become that...
They are so focused on the how, and then when they remember, they are remember...
Okay, so let me unpack this remembering thing that I'm, I'm sensing 'cause it feel like it's, it's organized in my head and it's just not coming out in the same way.
Um, when you are so focused on, "How am I gonna do this? How am I gonna lose the weight?" You start to remember how you failed, and then you can't imagine how you will succeed.
Isn't it so funny, like, how our minds are so good at remembering the negative, and then somehow projecting that, like visualizing that for our futures? Don't you agree? Like, I don't know about you, but, like, this happened to me yesterday in the car.
I'm driving down the road and [clears throat] I'm approaching an intersection, and it...
the intersection was, you know, an intersection with people coming off the highway and people turning to get on the highway and whatever.
I kept going, and in that moment, so twisted, I immediately imagined that oncoming traffic just turned into me and, you know, that my car flipped over and that it was burning, and how would my children ever know that I, I didn't get to pick... my daughter, I didn't get to pick her up at Scribbler's Coffee Shop because I was in a horrible accident, and how would they...
[laughs] But I think this is normal, and I know it's normal because I see it in all my coaching clients.
I have so many VIP clients where we talk about things that are not weight loss-related, and they take me down rabbit holes, and they don't even see what they're thinking.
But I'm showing you through this example that we are so easily taken to the negative, and so we can easily...
Like, in that moment, I noticed that thought and I was like, "Wow, why can't I imagine something amazing right now?" And so I did.
I imagined having a really good day, getting Jillian on time, her... taking her to cross-country, and her being in a really good mood, and I imagined all these great things, and it all happened.
So if you find that you are wondering, "How am I gonna change? How am I gonna become this version of myself?" And you're focused on that, and you're finding difficulty believing that things are gonna go in a different direction this time, I...
