If you’re ready to take control of your thoughts, beliefs, and create the reality you deserve, you’re in the right place. Let’s get started! Mindset: What It Is and How It Works Definition of Mindset: Your mindset is an established set of beliefs and attitudes that shape how you see the world. Think of it like a pair of glasses – the lenses you use determine how situations and opportunities appear. Mindset Matters: Your mindset impacts everything you do. It influences your motivation, resilience, the way you handle challenges, and even how you perceive yourself. If you want to change outcomes, shift your mindset first. Growth vs. Fixed Mindset: Research made popular by Dr. Carol Dweck suggests we often fall into one of two categories: Fixed mindset: Belief that talent and ability are set, leading to avoidance of challenges and a sense of stagnation. Growth mindset: Belief that you can develop and expand abilities with practice and dedication, leading to embracing obstacles and a love of learning. Developing Your Mindset: Facts and Action Fact #1 – It Takes Work: Our mindsets are forged over time through experiences and messages we internalize. They’re not set in stone. Changing them requires conscious effort. Fact #2 – Neuroplasticity: This is the amazing ability of your brain to reorganize itself. With repetition and focus, you literally rewire your brain for a new mindset. Develop It – How? Challenge limiting beliefs: When you hear that inner critic (”I’m not good enough,” etc.) examine the evidence. Are those thoughts really true? Reframe negativity: Turn ”I can’t” into ”I can’t YET.” Focus on growth, not limitations. Empowering vocabulary: Choose words that reflect resilience, possibility, and ownership. Mindset’s Connection to Manifestation Manifestation 101: Manifestation means bringing your desires into reality, aligning your thoughts, energy, and actions for specific outcomes. It taps into the power of focused intention. Energy is Key: Your mindset determines your vibrational frequency. High vibes (joy, gratitude) attract positive experiences; low vibes (doubt, fear) manifest more of the same. Your Beliefs Create Your Reality: If you subconsciously believe you’re unworthy of love, for example, amazing partners won’t just appear. Your mindset sets the stage for what you manifest. Embracing Manifestations’ Power Why It Matters: Because you are a co-creator of your life, not just a passive observer. Manifestation empowers you, making you active in designing your ideal future. Busting a Myth: Manifestation is not magic. It IS about focused intention and work, but life isn’t a vending machine. Sometimes, it takes unexpected twists on the way to your goal. Manifestation: Call to Action Clarity is King (or Queen): Get crystal-clear on what you want, not just what you DON’T want. Visualize & Feel: Imagine your desire as if it’s already real. Engage the emotions you’ll feel when you have it. Inspired Action: Don’t just sit around waiting. Take aligned steps towards your goals – big and small! Show Notes Dr. Dweck’s research about the power of mindset: https://www.mindsetworks.com/science/ What I am reading: ”Your Queer Career” Dr. Steven R. Yacovelli Positive Affirmation ”My mind is powerful. I choose thoughts that uplift, inspire, and align with my highest goals. I am a magnet for all that is good.” Thanks for joining me! Remember, your mindset is your superpower. Harness it, align it with manifestation, and watch your world transform. Until next time, keep shining bright! #mindset #manifestation #growthmindset #manifest #growth #clarity #belief #life #purpose #career #passion #future #change #millennial #work #beliveinyou #coach #coaching

Today, we’re getting down into the roots of fear, understanding where it comes from, and how we can use it as fuel for success. Let’s dive in!” Dissecting Fear: Where Does it Live? Fear isn’t all bad – evolutionarily, it kept us safe. Our modern fears: failure, rejection, the unknown, public speaking, being ’seen’. How fear manifests: avoidance, procrastination, self-sabotage. Fear, Imposter Syndrome, & Limiting Beliefs Our inner critic - it’s fueled by fear. ”I’m not good enough,” ”I’ll fail” – these are FEAR talking, not truth. Limiting beliefs hold us back from opportunities and personal growth. Courage: The Antidote It’s NOT about being fearless, but acting in spite of fear. Small acts of courage build confidence – like raising your hand in a meeting! Courage lets us pivot – saying ’no’, or changing careers when we’re unhappy. Strategies for Mastering Your Fears Acknowledgement: Name your fear (it loses power in the light). Challenge your thoughts: Is this fear realistic? What’s the worst that could happen? Reframing: See fear as a sign you’re stepping into growth territory. Visualization: Imagine yourself succeeding despite the fear. Call to Action ”What’s ONE tiny but courageous act you can commit to this week? Maybe it’s sending that job application, asking for that raise, or even just having that difficult conversation. Write it down, put it somewhere visible, and DO IT!
