Have you seen the Tony Robbins movie on Netflix?
If not, it’s called I am Not Your Guru, and I highly recommend it. Just be sure to have a box of Kleenex handy. 🙂
After watching Tony help people make such HUGE shifts in such a short time, I decided to enroll in his online course — Robbins Madanes Training — so I can learn how to do what he does.
One of the first things Tony does in his interventions is find out where his subject’s FOCUS is. What is he or she paying attention to from day to day? Is what they’re focusing on empowering or disempowering?
As you can probably guess, the person is typically focusing on disempowering thoughts and circumstances. Then, it’s Tony’s job to interrupt this pattern and reveal a new set of CHOICES that he or she couldn’t see before.
Focus is a powerful thing. Unfortunately, for reasons we’ll be exploring in next Tuesday’s podcast episode, the human brain has a tendency to latch onto negative experiences and outcomes. Our thoughts tend to fixate on the “bad” things that have happened to us while tuning out a lot of the good.
Based on these negative thoughts, we write stories about our lives that aren’t as truthful and accurate as we think they are. And the limiting voices in our heads work their tails off to validate these stories … over and over again.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. Once you become aware of what you’ve been doing to yourself, you can take back the power to choose where you’re putting your focus.
You can rewrite the script and assume the role of lead actor in this movie called Life.
In this week’s episode of The SC Sessions, Aaron Anastasi, author of The Voice of Your Dreams, reveals how to turn down your voice of limitation and turn up the voice of success by shifting your focus and finding out the truth about you.
Thanks Sean for your wonderful E -book!……and another stellar interview! Susan
So glad to have you back on the podcast! Great to hear your voice & wisdom. You are such an awesome interviewer. Thanks for all you do!
Sean,
I LOVE what you’re doing, and I’m so grateful that you are doing it. Yesterday I listened to your podcast with Marie Forleo. I’m not a B-school candidate, but I got so much out of that podcast — from Marie, from you, and from the callers and their questions. That led straight into your interview with Aaron Anastasi, which I didn’t actually get to listen to until this morning, but again, there are some game-changing nuggets in there. Thank you, thank you for sharing your gift.
I am hoping to figure out what my gift is sometime in the near future. What I’m really passionate about is the idea of helping people heal through nutrition. For several weeks, I’ve been on the brink of signing up for an online health coaching course, but what I REALLY want to do is Functional diagnostic nutrition. I heard you say on the Marie Forleo podcast that you have done an FDN course. I wondered if you’d mind sharing which course you did? Out of curiosity, are you still doing anything in that field?
Thank you so much, again!
