| 0:00.0 | Good morning, guys. Welcome to the Increase Reimpact Podcast, Justin Suta here, episode |
| 0:04.6 | 1,779. The mind is incredibly powerful. And it is so powerful that a kid nudged you |
| 0:14.4 | to experience certain emotions. Now, if I told you to make yourself happy, chances are |
| 0:20.9 | you'd be able to do it. Or you'd be able to try to do it. If I asked you to stress yourself |
| 0:25.8 | out, you'd be able to should be able to do it, make yourself mad. There would be a very |
| 0:30.5 | specific thing you would do in order to spark those respective emotions. And what you do |
| 0:38.5 | is you'd go into your memory bank, you jump into that mental time machine and you take |
| 0:43.1 | yourself back to a moment that made you mad, that made you happy, that made you sad, that |
| 0:51.0 | made you excited. And just remembering, bringing up, remembering that time, drawing up those |
| 0:57.5 | memories will help you spark those emotions. Now, what you want to do is you want to leverage |

| 1:39.3 | What did you not do? What did you focus on? What did you ignore? What habits do you have? |
| 1:44.8 | What routines did you have now? I understand that the context might be different. The people |
| 1:49.8 | in your life then might not be in your life now. You're a different age. The circumstance |
| 1:54.2 | were completely different. However, there were certain things that you did back then that |
| 2:00.4 | you can do right now. And the big lesson is that you've overcome hard things before. You |
| 2:07.1 | are the person you are today, not just because of the things you've achieved, but because |
| 2:11.2 | of the things that you've overcome. You are resilient. You are strong. You are powerful. |
