The Jim Fortin Podcast Ep 109: An STD Just For You
OK, OK, so you read the headline and you were probably thinking, “Jim, what the heck is wrong with you?”
I totally get it and I don’t want you to have the kind of STD that most people dread, I want you to have another kind, well, the acronym with the letters – STD.
What does STD stand for? Easy: Surrender, Trust and No Doubt and that’s the topic this week.
In this episode I talk about:
- [1:16] What my definition of surrender, trust and doubt are
- [4:23] How control is woven into not wanting to surrender
- [5:19] Your greatest cause of unhappiness
- [7:30] Accepting what “is” in life
- [8:37] The energy waste of “fighting” one’s self
- [19:08] Allowing yourself to trust your unconscious mind
- [24:58] Why you can trust your unconscious mind and the universe
- [33:02] Trusting all is well and not doubting yourself
- [35:45] And, letting go of the illusion of control
I’ve never been a “control freak,” per se but I used to get into my share of control, and it’s toxic and debilitating. You probably already know that it’s just a complete energy drain and it exhausts you.
In this episode, it’s my intent to ask you to take a look at yourself and to look at the ways you’re trapped in control and maybe don’t even know it.
When you live from the paradigm I propose in this episode, STD, life becomes so much easier and free.
Transformational Takeaway: Control is an illusion and when you get into the illusion of control you are controlled by the illusion of control.
