      Lets you and i have a webinar scheduled to address the Amway sitation in front of a large crowd of 10,000 people. It is up to the UPLINE TO TEACH WHAT TO DO. ROLE PLAYING IS VITALLY IMPORTANT. Did you remember that i sated they my sponsors and Direct Dist could not recruit only 8 prospects out of 200 propects. What does that tell you. We lost those prospects within the 24 hour to 48 hour time from. no time

      I wouldn't neccessarily say that thoughts are a choice, as those come and go, just like feelings - you cannot control your thoughts. Positive affirmations probably are a way to influence your thinking yes but what we think is not up to ourselves. It is not a choice. The only thing in our power is how we react to those thougts.

      same! I went through a really hard decade where i was severely depressed and didnt *want* to change, so nothing ever did. when things were worse than ever, i had this weird moment of clarity where I thought “I don’t want to be like this anymore. I want to be happy.” and from then I really put in an effort to try all those ‘coping mechanisms’ that I brushed off as worthless or stupid, and I really looked at myself and what I wanted to do, and then I just... started doing those things that terrified me but I knew were good for me. I still lose motivation sometimes (hence why I’m here now lol), but now that theres something I want, a future that I really want to have, I havent gotten near as low in my mental health. Good luck to you, and I hope youre doing better now!

Now I have a purpose driven life, no stress, and I lost almost 100 pounds.

    This thing about waiting to "feel like it" is really a true trap. It happens to me. I used to always feel like it and got everything done, but after I had a TIA stroke, I have never "felt like it" since. Some circuitry changed and I have to force myself into whatever, usually ironing! LOL! But once I get going, I just go till I'm done. Having a scheduled day with times to rest a bit and fairly frequent changes of action helps. I'm just a 'go till it's done' person, so it's easy to get bored to death and exhausted. It's better to break whatever it is I have to do into time increments and come back to it later. I have to give myself a variety of things to do in a circular schedule and then I don't get bored or exhausted. It's a better way to fight procrastination. Im going to try this 54321 trick and see if it won't help me cut thru my own excuses!

I've had more ups and downs in my life that most people would have jumped off a building I lost several properties, over 250k Cash when I was my 40s but found a way to get back on my feet it took about 13 years of saving, saving , saving and investing of what little of I could tuck away. And I didn't know I was using the 5 second decisions back then. And you are so right 5 seconds to just out of bed in the mornings I do , make my bed I've learned at 5 years old or my Father guided us .....Thank you for the reminder Miss Robbins....very very much Oh !

    I find the best thing to do is if it is something that is important to you then do it first thing in the morning. Have 4 goals first thing after waking up. For me it is drink coffee, eat breakfast, get my clothes ready to go biking, go biking. When you have 4 decisions first thing and nothing else matters right away, you will never skip the exercise. When I come home after biking and it is 7am on a weekend, I feel empowered and I got the exercise done so now...I start my day with momentum! The earlier I go, the less I hesitate and the excuses do not really show up just yet.

    I use to use something like the 5 second rule in my college days. I use to be painfully shy about talking to women, but the I would count 3...2...1. By the time i went to 1, i would say "hi". My friends thought I was some bold and confident guy. But I was trying not to be single for the rest of my love. It worked. I'm now married and have a family. So, no need to use it for that purpose. But never thought about using this rule in other aspects of my life until now. This makes sense.

    I used to say that the best sleep I got was in the 9-minute intervals between hitting the "Snooze" button, but like Mel, my life had become a train wreck and not getting up and facing it was compounding my problems. It's now about 4 years since I heard her talk about the 5-sec rule, and since then I haven't once hit the "Snooze" button and I totally turned my life around. I am very happy to get the message again because I have drifted away from the 5-sec rule and my life has gotten comfortable and there are way too many things I want to accomplish that won't happen until I start applying the 5-sec rule in all areas of my life. Glad I found this on RUclips.

So I started doing the 5 second routine- literally get out of bed the moment the alarm goes off (my hubby thinks I'm nuts but also is envious) and now over time I've trained myself to take 30 minute naps and use the 5 second rule to get up and over time its just become "normal". I apply your 5 second rules to many thing and always tell myself " don't talk yourself out of it!" Anyways. Just wanted to say thank you 🤍

      I can totally relate to that thought, but to get to that point in the future, we will have to extend effort in the here and now. One of my other favourite coaches (apart from Mel Robbins of course) called Lisa Nichols says "There's no elevator to the top, there's nothing but stairs" (in the growth mindset, we want to learn and grow and put effort towards this, in the fixed mindset, we want things to come naturally - everyone has both parts, the question is not "if" but "where").

    Another great interview. I like a lot of what Mel says in this video. From the book The Happiness Hypothesis I learned that Sigmund Freud said the mind is divided in to 3 parts. The ego (the conscious rational self), the super ego (the conscience, sometimes too rigid to the rules of society) and the id (the desire for pleasure). Think of the mind as a horse and buggy. The driver is the ego who struggles frantically to control a hungry lustful and disobedient horse (the id) while the driver’s father (the super ego) sits in the back seat lecturing the driver on what he is doing wrong. For me it's all about not allowing myself any BS excuses. I take ownership and push through when the id is telling me otherwise.
