If You Think your family is Holding You Back

6m · Satish Kumbhar Podcast · 07 Sep 03:01

Today I want to share with you an eye opening story about a young man and his mentor.

It is a story about not letting anything anyone says, or does get to you. Including family or friends.

It’s about not allowing negativity inside. Not allowing opinions to dictate your wellbeing.

It’s about taking responsibility for your own feelings, no matter what anyone else thinks or says ABOUT YOU.

So the story tells us, that there was this young man, who was living with his family because he didn’t yet have the means to move out.

The young man would visit with a mentor once a week, and every time, he would complain about his family, saying how negative they were, how they always pushed him to do things that he did not enjoy, while never supporting him in doing the things he actually did enjoy doing.

He said his family were “dragging him down”

The mentor responded:“But are they really dragging you down?… or are you allowing whatever is being said to you or about you, to drag you down?”

“Are they really dragging you down? Or are you allowing whatever YOU THINK they are thinking of you to drag you down?”

Not truly understanding, and growing angry at the mentor, the young man responded:

“No, they ARE dragging me down. Their negativity drags me down every day. I can’t make up how I feel. They are doing this to me.”

These Morning Habits Will Transform Your Mindset & Quality of Life

If you start your day with a genuine “THANK YOU”… you’ll most likely end your day with many more things to say “THANK YOU” for. Almost everything you do from the moment you wake up is habit. Habits formed from your past. Habits formed, by your consistent application – good or bad. What habits do you want to create? And what habits do you need to ELIMINATE? What habits will lead you to create a better life? What habits will lead to your BEST LIFE? Here’s some common morning habits of the most successful, and most fulfilled people in the world: Exercise. Gratitude. Journaling. Meditation. Cold showers. Correct nutrition. Breathing exercises.
 Affirmations. It all comes down to self-discipline. It’s easier to pick up your phone and scroll social media. But is that going to lead you to happiness? Probably not. It’s much harder initially to practice self-discipline… but that is what leads to an easier life in the long term. How do you want to feel? If you want to feel great, if you want to feel happy and positive… do the things that happy and positive people do. Practice deep gratitude. Meditate. Exercise. Affirmations… whatever works for you. Do it daily and create the habit of positive action. It will not take long before your quality of life starts to improve. There’s a common misconception that habits are formed in only 21 days. But science shows the number is more like a minimum of 66 days to form lasting, or life-long habits. Are you willing to commit a minimum of 66 days, in order to change your quality of life FOREVER? Sounds like pretty fair math to me. Think forward to 1 year, 5 years in the future… How do you want to be living?
 Would the consistent emotions you currently experience be acceptable to you if they remained the same? Or is there better waiting for you? Are you committed to doing that daily work? According to a recent study by the World Health Organization, around 121 million worldwide people suffer from depression. Shockingly, the percentage of depression is highest among high-income countries like the USA, France and Australia. The truth is, the quality of our lives is not determined by where we live, how much money we earn, or even the events and circumstances of our life. The quality of our lives is merely the quality of our perspective. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/satish-kumbhar/message

4 Ways To Shift Your Money Mindset From Scarcity To Abundance

If you find yourself living "paycheck to paycheck" then it's possible that you've cultivated a scarcity mindset in relationship to money.  At some point in your life you may have experienced an event which now dictates your mindset concerning your finances.  Consequentially, you now operate from that mental space leaving you with less than desirable results. 

The Power of Intensions That will change everything

When you have an INTENTION you are far more likely to achieve the results you want because you are actively searching for positive ways to make your intention true to you.

Think about it: Say you set the INTENTION in the morning to be more lighthearted and playful in the day – do you think it is more likely or less likely that you will be searching for and CREATING moments of fun, playfulness and joy throughout your day?

Can you then understand how, by setting many powerful INTENTIONS, every single day – these intentions can completely change your life?

Of course, they can, because every single positive moment in your life carries a compound effect.

That little moment of fun and playfulness with your partner, friend or family – leads to a stronger, closer relationship in the future. Which leads to better and better moments, stronger and stronger bonds, happier and happier times.

The INTENTION of patience and non-judgement: that builds your strength in that area, and in the future when life provides you with great challenges your RESPONSE to those challenges affects your future in a much more positive way than if you didn’t practice that intention.
