Outwork Self Doubt - Alex Hormozi
What does it mean to outwork your self doubt? Let me start here. The mind is probably the most powerful thing ever. Your mind does not know the difference between what you dream of and what you actually do.
Your mind feeds off of what you constantly think. Your mind determines your reality.
If you are feeding your mind thoughts of positivity, abundance, and growth, your reality will reflect those things. Why is the mind so powerful? I think because God gave us the ability to create. The mind is in place to create. The mind creates words which create actions and feelings.
When God created the world, he spoke it into existence. He has made us in His image, therefore allowing us to do the same. We are given the same gifts as the Father. How powerful and bomb! With this knowledge we can go forth in life with gusto. This doesn’t mean easiness in our endeavors, just simplicity. A sound knowing within us, that creating is normal, it’s destined.
These facts are backed by science, let's get into what Harvard says about positive psychology.
"When comparing the most optimistic to the least optimistic, the most optimistic have a reduced risk of dying from cancer, infection, stroke, heart disease, and lung disease," says Dr. Eric Kim from the Harvard School of Public Health.
Truthfully, it has been proven that you can make yourself not sick by thinking positively. If you say, “you are sick” so it shall be. If you say “you are tired” so it shall be. So what do you think happens if you say you are healthy, you are powerful, you are glowing, you are abundant, well so it shall be.
Self-doubt. It is utterly normal to have self-doubt. However, at the same time it is utterly a choice to give self-doubt any attention. Imagine, you are in a situation where the odds are against you or it seems your environment is caving in on you, it is in these moments where self-doubt attempts to destroy all you’ve built.
It is in these moments of rock bottom that we do ourselves the favor of remembering our way and watering the thoughts that will eventually pull us up. Don’t ever discredit how far you have come in spite of the battles in front of you. You are doing so well.
We are what we believe. We feel how we think. If you think you are rich, you will feel rich. If you think there’s no way you can do that, well there will be no way you can do that.
Choose.
You have to make a decision to choose to self-empower. You have to empower yourself no matter what.
You have to tell yourself self-doubt doesn’t have a home here. You have to put in the work and train your subconscious mind to consistently think of yourself in a positive light. This is how you outwork your self-doubt. If you don’t believe in yourself, why on earth would positive opportunities and experiences happen for you?
Good things happen to those who believe they are worthy of them. And I am here to tell you, YOU ARE. You are. We all are. Abundance is for all of us.
This is how life was created, to be flowing of abundance. Abundance flows to those who allow it. Those who have open arms for it. Are you blocking abundance? Are you blocking good things because of how you think and feel? You have to feel good. Do things that make you feel good. Self-care, hanging out with good people, filling your mind with positive audios, going to your favorite store or hang out spot, I mean even fulfilling your goals makes you feel good.
In 2024, let’s do what we said we would. Let’s stop waiting for the perfect time to start because honestly life will always be lifing, let’s do what we can NOW.
Ask yourself, what truly makes you feel good? It is there that lies your answer on how to put self-doubt in its place.
