Good morning. Welcome to the Increasing Impact Podcast. I'm Justin Sua, episode 22. In Arizona,

there's a place you can go to see a meteor crater. Now, the meteor crater is about a mile in diameter.

It's huge. And they say that a meteor struck the earth at a speed of about 26,000 miles an hour.

And it was believed to be 300,000 tons. Now, the interesting thing is the crater is three times larger than the actual mediator,

a meteor, three times larger.

So the meteor they say is about 150 feet in diameter, but the crater is about a mile in diameter.

And that just goes to show how a small thing with incredible speed and acceleration

and force can create such a huge result. And we might think to ourselves, we're like,

does that happen in other places? And the actual reality is yes. I want to talk today about mind creators. These tiny little

thoughts that creep into our mind that end up creating having such a huge impact.

They create these holes in our attention, in our time, in our energy that are outsized,

two, three, four times larger than the actual tiny little thought.

This looks like when you can't get over that little mistake that you made.

And you didn't just make this mistake once,

you carry it with you into the next day and the next day and the next day. Or maybe somebody else

did something small in the big scheme of things. But for some reason, you can't let it go. And it

causes you to waste time, waste energy, and waste attention. Like that tiny little meteor that ended up making a huge crater.

And so I want you to think about what are the mental meteors in your life that are creating

outsized holes in your time, energy, and attention.

It might be really small if you take a look at it, but it is making a big impact on your life.

You want to comb through your memory, comb through your life, because what ends up happening

as well, and this could happen to time as well. You can spend a little time on Instagram or a little time
