Summary

Price Pritchett says when we aim for quantum leaps, defensive thoughts undermine trust in ourselves, so we must counterbalance that resistance. Visualizing the end goal helps motivate us through the messy middle of big transitions. To stay confident amidst complaints, we should continually reinforce the "promised land" to outweigh feared losses. Ultimately, he believes forewarning people about change's challenges better equips them to persist.

Hi my name is Lewis Howes and welcome to the Daily Motivation Show.

You said there was two different scales. One is about optimism and pessimism essentially, right?

0:15.8

And you're saying that if we want to increase our confidence, if we want to increase our

0:20.5

belief himself, one of the things that we can do is start removing pessimism,

being too negative if I do that. When someone decides they want to make a quantum league, they're talking

0:54.0

about major change. Let's talk about what happens when change hits, in this case, self-imposed

0:59.2

change. I've seen this for decades in organizations where it's major change.

1:05.8

You're being acquired, you're being merged, you're being downsized, you're being restructured,

1:10.9

okay?

1:11.9

So it's self-imposed when we're making quantum leap, but the same dynamics

1:16.2

come into play as when the world, our world, the company we work for or whatever, the

1:22.0

organization that we're stuck in all of a sudden

1:25.9

goes takes a hard right turn so here's what happens when change hits the first

1:31.3

scan is for danger that's how we're wired.

1:35.0

Danger. Whenever there's change, it feels like there's danger.

1:38.0

Yeah. What can go wrong here? How could I get hurt in this deal?
