Have you ever gotten really excited about making a change in your life, only to find yourself falling back into your old habits a few days or weeks later?

Sound familiar?

Have you ever found yourself acting a little differently around certain people because you wanted them to like you? Maybe you agreed with something you didn't really agree with, said yes when you wanted to say no, or pretended to be interested in something just to fit in.

I think we've all done that at one time or another. But have you ever stopped to think about how much time and energy we spend trying to be the person we think everybody else wants us to be?

Have you ever wondered how many people's lives you've influenced without even knowing it?

Think about that for a moment. Maybe you encouraged somebody years ago who was ready to give up. Maybe you said something kind to a stranger who was having a difficult day. Or maybe you simply believed in somebody at a time when they didn't believe in themselves.

What if that one little thing you did ended up changing their life? And what if they went on to make a difference in somebody else's...

Have you ever stopped to think about how much time you spend focusing on the things you don't want in your life?

You don't want financial problems. You don't want stress. You don't want to struggle. But here's a question I want you to think about. How much time are you actually spending thinking about what you DO want?

In this episode of The Growth Mindset Book Podcast, we're exploring Jack Canfield's wonderful guide, Activating the Law of Attraction, and three simple principles that can help you...

What if there was a better way?

If your days keep proving the same story, it might be because you keep “decreeing” it without noticing. We open season three of the Mindset Book Podcast with Neville Goddard’s At Your Command, and we sit with its bold premise: the power you’ve been chasing is already within you, because awareness is the creative source.

Ever feel like your reactions run you before you get a say? We dig into the real engine behind your results—your thoughts—and map how outside inputs like news, social media, and even loving family advice can, through repetition, hardwire beliefs that shape every choice you make. Instead of blaming willpower, we walk through a clearer model: inputs create thoughts, thoughts repeated become programs, and programs filter your world until they feel like facts.

We get practical about spotting those inputs in real time: the headline that spikes fear, the feed...

On a scale of 1 to 10, how authentic are you really?

So many of us live with the constant, draining pressure to be someone we're not. We compare our journey to others, hide our true feelings, and chase a version of success that doesn't align with our soul. This disconnect is the number one source of stress, overwhelm, and feeling like you're walking through life on the wrong path.

But what if your greatest strength, deepest confidence, and most profound peace could be found by simply being yourself?
