Why Understanding That Your Mindset Is A Menu Will Change Everything
Your mindset is like a menu at a restaurant. You’ve got all of these different beliefs about who you are on the menu.
And you can only order from the menu.
What’s on your menu?
I am a nervous flyer
I am ugly
I am someone who can’t control myself around food.
I am bad at handling money.
If you try to order something that’s not on the menu you won’t get it.
If you try to get on a plane and feel calm, but your menu says “I am a nervous flyer” that’s what you’re gonna get. You’re going to start acting in accordance with that identity.
The dude in the photo is a smoker. It’s one of his beliefs, or he wouldn’t be smoking. Right? It’s on his menu. He has to change the menu before he can order something different for his life.
If I handed you your menu, would you be happy to order from that every single day?
Nervous flyer, bad with money, addicted to food?
Good news, you’re the chef, and you can change what’s on the menu.
