Description

Sometimes, we have a hard time changing ourselves into the path that we want. There’s something that resists within you. However, you should always remember that you are the only one who can change yourself. You have the power to transform yourself into something that you want. In this episode, David Snyder shares with us the secrets to personal transformation.

Standout Quotes:

• “Your dominant thoughts are not what you think they are.”      
  “We all have to figure out what's right for us.”
• “We inherently resist anything that contradicts how we see ourselves. In other words, self-image.”  
  “If you do not take action on anything, you will get nothing.”  
  “You have to choose what reality you want to live in. You have to choose to learn something new. You have to choose to get comfortable being a little bit uncomfortable.”  
  “You can have or be anything you want in life. But first, you must become the kind of person that that thing can happen to.”

Key Takeaways:        
Dominant thoughts are our feelings, ideas, and beliefs. These are thoughts on what you want, what you deserve, and how you are going to accomplish them.

You know yourself on what you want. This is why, if something is opposite to what we think of ourselves, we often reject it.

You can’t easily achieve what you want without doing anything. You have to work hard for it. You have to earn it.  

Anything can easily be achieved, as long as you do the things to deserve them. Take action to achieve what you want.
