Chapter 2, Mindset is a choice, the power of frame.

Frame, what is frame?

That's another one of those words like mindset.

You've probably heard people say, it's all about your frame of mind. Just like mindset is

everything. And you think all about your frame of mind, what does that even mean? But again,

that's why we give you these actual habits here in this gorilla mindset course. Frame. It's just

what you choose to focus on is how you choose toward the problems that you're facing. Let's look at it this way.

Do you have problems? Yeah, I have problems. We all have problems. What if you call them something

different? What if you call them challenges? What if you call them opportunities for growth?

Now that's one of those things that years ago I didn't really believe worked. I also never tried it, which

is a testament to me thinking I know more about life than I did at the time. But the idea

is your frame of mind is your focus. If you're focused on one thing, you're not focused on

anything else. And especially in our ADHD thing, we don't really think about framing. We

don't really think about focusing. we don't really think about focusing,

we kind of let whatever happens to us filter through us without any kind of strength on our part.

So the way I look at it, and this goes to self-talk, so a lot of this is going to sound familiar.

You can say, I have a problem. You can say I am a failure. You can say I lost.

Or you could reframe it. You could say I took a chance. Other people don't take chances.

I took a chance. I didn't win that time. But you know what? I'm still here. I'm still standing. We've all been through a lot of things in life. And I've seen people who are what I would only call broken men or broken women. In fact, I recently had a seminar and I said, how many people here know someone that you would call a broken man or a broken woman? Everyone in the room, it was a full house, raised

their hand. Everybody knows a broken man and you think, well, how did that person get broken?

What happened? Now, usually something bad happened, of course, and I never want to dismiss what

people go through. I'm never the guy who says, you can get through anything if you just smile.
