I can remember the day my life changed
forever!
I was complaining to a mentor about a situation I was struggling with. She took a deep breath, looked me in the eye, and said the words that literally rocked my world.
“Leslie, you become what you think about. Plain and simple. And when you focus on all the negative in your life, guess what you’ll have? More negative things to complain about!”
I stopped talking right away and thought long and hard about what I’d just heard. Could this REALLY be true? Was my complaining and thinking literally creating unhappiness and frustration in my life? Hmm … interesting.
She went on to tell me, that by just shifting the focus from what I didn’t want, to what I did, I would FEEL happier, healthier, and so much more positive. Not only that, but I would also be able to attract all the other awesome stuff I wanted in my life - a better job, greater fulfillment, and happier relationships. I was intrigued. I was curious. I was desperate.
And so began an almost two-decade journey into the world of personal development, learning everything I could about thoughts, energy, limiting beliefs, forgiveness, and self-awareness. I trained with some of the best mind experts in the world, including Bob Proctor of the Secret, and motivational speaker, Paul Martinelli.
As a result of that one conversation, and a serious commitment to my personal and spiritual growth, I have shifted my life in so many awesome ways. I now have healthy and fulfilling relationships. My income has soared doing what I love. And my health, wellness, and happiness are incredible. I share these WINS with you not to say, “Hey, look what I did!” But to encourage, inspire, and gently nudge you into your own personal development journey.
Bottom line: If you want to achieve different outcomes in life, you first must change your thinking. What I also learned is the key to effectively altering your mindset, lies in having a skilled coach and mentor who can guide you through this process, offering the insights and support necessary for meaningful and permanent change.
