Seven Figure Standard Episode 03: Thinking from the Inside Out
“I am not accepting any idea that is not in harmony with the way I want to live.” This is one of the foundational principles of inside-out (as opposed to outside-in) thinking. Your thoughts create your feelings, your feelings create your actions, and your actions create your results. In life, the only things we have control over are our thoughts, and in order to control our thoughts, we have to put our five senses in a lock box and send them away. Our senses are useful for enjoying life’s pleasures but when it comes to making decisions, they are our greatest enemies. In this episode, Arash and Mykie talk about how, through tracking our behaviors, getting crystal clear on what success means to us, and committing to using our higher faculties (reason, will, imagination, intuition, memory, and perception) in a disciplined way, we can gain control over our thoughts and emotions and create the lives that we truly want to live!
