The Daily Motivation

Back then, if you were in a coma for more than eight hours, doctors considered the brain damage irreversible. You were written off. Done. But she met a 16-year-old girl who'd lost an entire year of school, functioning at a second-grade level, labeled a "vegetable" by her doctors. Every expert said attempting to get her back to graduate with her peers was pointless, not even worth trying. Eight months later, that girl caught up to 12th grade, finished school with her class, earned a university degree, and became exceptional at math when she'd been average before the accident. This wasn't compensation or coping strategies. This was her brain actually rebuilding itself through systematic, intentional mind management.Here's what matters for your life: you don't go even three seconds without using your mind, which means every moment you're either directing it or letting it run wild. Dr. Leaf spent decades working everywhere from apartheid-torn South Africa to Rwanda war zones to CEO boardrooms, and what she discovered is that you can't control what happens to you, but you can absolutely learn to manage your mind. Real greatness isn't about millions in the bank or fame. It's about mental peace, actual growth, being satisfied with who you're becoming. Your brain isn't fixed. Your limitations aren't permanent. And the person you think you are right now? That's just the beginning of who you could become if you learn to direct your own neuroplasticity instead of letting life do it randomly.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

You are literally making it harder for them to help you." - Vanessa Van EdwardsVanessa Van Edwards shares research that will make you rethink every email you've ever sent. Researchers had people take a simple math quiz with two different sets of directions. One group got basic instructions. The other got the exact same directions, but with a few words swapped in: win, succeed, master, greatness. Those achievement-oriented words didn't just change how people felt. They performed better. Got more answers correct. Worked longer and harder. Enjoyed it more. And here's what's wild: reading those words actually changed their dopamine and testosterone levels. Then Vanessa dropped the real bomb. Think about the last email you sent your team on a Monday morning. Did it say something like "today's going to be a busy day, we have a lot of challenges ahead"? Those words are priming your team to be busier and more challenged. You're making it harder for them to help you without even realizing it. She shared another study where they put a picture of an athlete winning a race on top of telemarketers' scripts. Just that simple visual cue made them earn more money.What hit hardest was when Vanessa said we're missing opportunities in every single email we send. Every communication is either priming someone for success or failure. She challenged listeners to go back through their sent folder and count the priming words they're using. Are you filling your emails with "busy" and "challenges" and "problems"? Or are you sprinkling in words like "win" and "succeed" and "master"? Lewis shared how he used to cover his walls with motivational posters and Rocky images in high school and college, unknowingly priming himself for achievement every single day. That's the shift Vanessa's asking us to make. Look at your environment. Look at your language. Every word you choose is either setting people up to perform at their best or making it harder for them to succeed. The research is clear. The choice is yours.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I know how to make money. And it was such an empowering feeling." - Leila HormoziLeila Hormozi was 21 years old when she closed her first personal training sale for $1,300. She wasn't confident. She didn't believe in herself. But in that moment, something clicked that most people spend their entire lives trying to understand: money is a skill, and skills can be learned. "From the words that came out of my mouth to somebody," she remembers, still struck by the power of that realization. For the first time, she wasn't dependent on a job, a boss, or luck. She had discovered she could create value with her own abilities. But here's what's different about Leila's story: at every new level, the doubt came back. When she'd proven she could make $1,300, she wondered if she could make $20,000. Then $50,000. Each time, she didn't believe it until she did it. Her secret? She acts before she believes. She moves before confidence arrives. She borrowed this from a concept called "acting the opposite": if you want to be different than you are today, act like that person first. The feelings catch up later.Fast forward to today, and Leila is making investment decisions worth millions. Two years ago, she lost close to $10 million on a bad investment. The company wasn't what she thought. The money was gone. And her response? "That's the cost of making money." Because she's learned something most people never grasp: there's a direct correlation between how much you're willing to lose and how much you're willing to gain. If your mind is constantly focused on not losing, you'll never open yourself up to making more. The same decision-making principles that led to that $10 million loss also led to crushing wins in other investments. Sometimes the outcome just doesn't work out, but the process stays sound. Leila doesn't wait to feel competent before she acts. She acts until competence builds, and then confidence follows. This isn't about positive thinking or manifestation. It's about understanding that the experience creates the skill, the skill creates competence, and competence finally creates confidence. You can't think your way into believing you're capable of something. You have to do your way into it.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
