I'd love to hear from you 'text the show'Hello, lovely listeners! In this episode, we're going to delve into why many resolutions and intentions set at the beginning of the year tend to fizzle out by January's end. I'll be sharing my reflections on the disconnect between setting goals and creating them from the same state of being. Taking inspiration from athletes like Jonny Wilkinson, I'll emphasise the crucial importance of feeling the emotions associated with achieving a goal before it actually happens.Here are my key takeaways for you from today's episode:Feel It to Achieve It: Setting goals isn't enough; it's essential to immerse yourself in the emotions associated with success to manifest the desired outcomes.Mindset Matters: Shifting from a mindset of lack to one of abundance plays a pivotal role in achieving lasting change.Gratitude and Signals: The practice of gratitude serves as a powerful transmitter of positive signals into the universe, attracting the desired reality.Creating from Within: Changing thoughts, beliefs, and feelings precedes external change; we must embody the desired state before we can take action and see the results we seek.Thank you for tuning in to this week's episode! If you resonate with these insights, I encourage you to share your thoughts in a review. Your feedback fuels positive change. Until next week, remember: that your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs shape your reality. Treat Your Business podcast is proudly sponsored by MBST, the groundbreaking technology revolutionising recovery and rehabilitation.
