As an adult, we talk to ourselves

at the rate of nearly 100-350

words a minute,

or 50,000 thoughts a day.

80% of the time we are thinking the same thoughts

from the previous day……

Be The You That Got Buried

Underneath “Shoulds”

and other people’s stories.

made it so easy for you to be remarkable.”

Slow Down.

Wash, Rinse, Repeat

• Write down your vision.

• Be relentless in your desire to change.

• Create a daily routine and practice it over and over and over again.

Once is not enough.

• Surround yourself with people who support your vision.

What do you want to improve or make better in your life?

What do you have to change to get it?

What might you have to give up?

What habits do you need to create to be the best you?

What new stories do you want to tell yourself to rewire your

brain?

Who do you know that supports your vision?

DO IT NOW.

Improve Your Groove

With Powerful Questions
