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

Here's the thing that I developed out of survival.

So there are the things that you do out of survival that turn out to be brilliant.

And when I was creating some of the things that I'm about to share with you,

they were not because I was brilliant, it was because I was trying to keep myself going,

especially in times when I needed to pay bills and I needed to get out of debt.

And so whenever I felt like quitting, I would literally have a pep talk with myself.

And I would say, this is not how my story is going to end.

I just refused to believe that.

And I refuse to believe that this is how it ends.

And so I would say those kinds of things to myself,

even though I felt like this is the end.

And I just made the stupidest decision I could have ever made,

or I just lost more money, or that didn't work out,

just another twist, another.

And so that's one thing that I would do.

The second thing that I would do, Lewis, is there's one thing that I would do the second thing that I

would do Lewis is there's this thing that I do with time traveling where I go to

the past and I go to the future so it's easy in this moment I don't know where you

are in your business I don't know where you are in your career your life but

it is easy to sit in this moment

and to look backwards
