Ep 260: Your Identity Causes Your Biggest Problems And Keeps You Trapped

Start Your Transformation Now So, we’ve been talking about identity for two months now, and I want to finish the identity series with a problem solving approach.  The only reason you listen to the podcast is because you’re wanting to solve a problem, and for most, specifically, that problem is how to create a better quality of life.  With global audience I have coached, when I ask people, “What is your biggest obstacle,” most people instinctively say, “me.” Yet, they don’t know what that “me” is or what it means.  It’s not your physical body that causes the lack in your life. It’s not your mind, per se. It’s your subconscious identity.  I've said it a bazillion times, “You’ll not have it on the outside until you first have it on the inside.” Let me ask you a question. If you have heard me say that, think back to the first time. How long ago was that? A month ago, a year, three years?  You MUST get your mind around this and you must take action on this if you want to create a better life. Your circumstances aren’t going to magically change until you change, so this episode is a reminder that you have to BE more before you can ever have more in life and that pertains to all areas of your life.  Ok, so what are you biggest problems? They most likely fall into one of three areas: Health, Wealth, Relationships.  Before I offer you a solution or thoughts about solving your problems, you must, and I repeat MUST, understand that there is a part of your identity (brain) that will try to prevent you for changing your circumstances.  In this episode I’m going to talk about the dichotomy of wanting more and life and self sabotaging yourself at the same time.  Transformational Takeaway: Your identity keeps you trapped in thought…and the only way out is action of some kind to see the error of the thought identity keeping you trapped.
