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

What is the number one thought and number one emotion that blocks us from the ability to manifest greater?

Fear. What type of fear?

Well, it's insecurity, it's shame. This results in you limiting your

beliefs. In some ways, what we're talking about here actually is a decision between fear and love and when you're fearful this stimulates your

sympathetic nervous system with all the negative aspects of it. When you love, you're open, you're generous,

you're thoughtful, you're kind

because you've engaged the parasympathetic nervous system.

And you have a choice. You meet people, I'm sure, say my life's miserable, my life's horrible,

while you meet other people go, well it's tough right now, but I'm, you know, optimistic it's going to get better.

Or I know if I do this, it's going to get better or I know if I do this it's going to get better. These are completely

oppositional attitudes that have a profound

profound effect depending on what you're believing. Yes.

But how does someone shift their attitude into positive when they're in a suffering state

and they feel like they're a victim to so many different things happening to them?

Sure. Well, I can't sit here and say, you do this and your life's going to be perfect.

There's some situations either because of, as an example, structural racism that's built into the system or chronic poverty

because throughout the world and even in America the ability to overcome

poverty for most it's highly unlikely that's going to happen

so yes you do have power but it's not necessarily I'm going to change it and everything's going to be perfect for me.

That being said, what we do know is there's certain practices and rules,

and if you are going to get out of something or if you are going to change things
