Good morning and welcome back to the morning mindset. Hey, did you know that if you have a

smart speaker in your home, in particular if you have an Amazon Alexa in your home. You can use that little tube to listen to the morning mindset every single morning.

It's called a Flash briefing. It's a little piece of audio I'm able to set up in Amazon Alexa.

And so if you want instructions of how to do that, it's very simple.

You just go to your Amazon account online, make sure you're logged in, right next to the search bar, you can see a little drop-down arrow.

Look there for the Amazon Skills section. Go into there, and when you get into it in the search bar

search for Morning Mindset. It should be one of the first episodes or options that

pops up, click on it, and then you click the

enable button I believe is what it's called and now you can speak directly to that

little tube and say Alexa play my flash briefing and it will play the most recent episode of the morning mindset for you

So think about that just give a voice command in the morning

Tell the little lady in the tube that you want to hear the morning mindset by

calling out that Amazon skill. The flash briefing is the word you have to use.

It's kind of a strange term, but that's what they call it. Anyway, let's get beyond that and let's get into our morning mindset topic for today.

We've been talking about the difference between a mindset on the flesh and a mindset on the spirit.

And yesterday I pointed out that what you focus on is what you get.

And we talked about the negative side of it,

that if you focus too much on the thing you're trying to overcome it actually sucks you in and pulls you into its

orbit and you get stuck there sometimes and I think sometimes that feeling of

stuckness is exactly what we're experiencing for

this very reason because our mind is focused too much on it.

We're consumed by it.
