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

We have to use the circumstances that we're living in as an opportunity to go

further in our own personal development. To truly manifest means that you feel good.

Feeling good means your energy is free, you're inspired,

you are receptive, and therefore attracting towards you what you desire.

So if we're in a place now where we feel like we're out of control,

we're trying to get control, we're in the opposite of that manifestation state,

which I refer to as being a super-attractor.

We're no longer connected to that power.

So the way back to that power is to put our personal growth first, to not go out and try to force anything or do anything out there

to find control. But to turn inward, to go deeper and identify what's unresolved,

work out what needs to be healed, bring forth to the surface the truth of

what's up so that we can show up for it.

And get back to a baseline of feeling safe,

a baseline of feeling joy, a baseline of connection rather than thinking that I have to go get control over

something you have to return to who we are. It's a lot of language but I can I can

further that too.

When we're triggered, we try to find control because it's a way of staying safe.

Being triggered in any form is really just an activation of a sense of being unsafe. So what we're going to do in that moment is go try to control our relationship or go try to control our food or go do something to feel safe.

And that also can come in the form of addictive behavior

like overeating or drinking too much

to anesthetize and numb out that feeling of being unsafe, that feeling of being activated and triggered in a wound, in a place of fear ultimately.
