How to skip past thoughts that hold you back. Read our show summary at biggsuccess.com.
Welcome to The Big Success Show. Today we ask, "Is your mind like a skipping CD?" The Big Success Show with George and Mary Lynn. I recently got out one of my favorite CDs, stuck it into my CD player, shows the song I wanted to hear, and... Oh, I hate when that happens. It's so annoying, but it occurred to us that sometimes our minds are like that skipping CD. We get stuck in a place that we just can't seem to get out of. And sometimes we get stuck focusing on the wrong thing, which keeps us from succeeding big. We all have to learn to control our own internal chat. What we say to ourselves, what we allow ourselves to think about, so that we can hear the sweet sounds of success. So don't focus on what you can't change, change, change, change, change, change. Focus on what you can. Don't try to change others, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir, sir. Change yourself. Don't worry about what you can't control, troll, troll, troll, troll, troll. Focus on what you can. Don't think about yesterday, day, day, day, day, day, day. Think about today. Don't tell yourself you can't do it, do it, do it, do it. Tell yourself you can. Don't focus on your shortcomings, mink, mink, mink, mink, mink, mink. Focus on your strengths. Don't ask why you're different, different, different, different, different, different. Embrace what makes you unique. Don't focus on what might have been, been, been, been, been, been. Focus on what can be. Don't fret about your past decisions, shins, shins, shins, shins, shins. Make the best choices today. Don't think about missed opportunities, cities, cities, cities, cities, cities. Think about the opportunity that's right in front of you now. The point is, you need to skip past the negative thoughts so you become all you want to be. Boy, I'm glad you quit skipping. I am too. I am too. Like, knock it off. Coming up, what to do when your internal CD is skipping? Today we've compared a skipping CD to your own internal thought processes. We've discussed some skips to avoid. Now we'll talk about how to avoid the skips. We've talked about how to remove the scratch by simply changing what you think about. But that only works if it's a surface scratch. There may be a larger problem. You may need to skip proof your player. There's a number of things you can do to feed your mind daily. Check out some inspirational readings.
