Embrace Change As Opportunity | 003

Tess Masters
About this episode

What’s holding you back from getting what you want?   

Embracing Nelson Mandela's “I never lose, I either win or I learn,” we celebrate what we can control, and seize the opportunities (rather than see the obstacles) in what we can’t control.   

In this episode, we look at our relationships with change. When we recognize that the outcome will serve us no matter what it looks like, the effort is worth it! Welcoming change becomes the key to going after what we want. 

Let’s empower ourselves to leverage those “It has to be me” moments into proactive choices that align with our values and missions. 

 

Tess’s Takeaways: 

  • Look for the opportunities instead of the obstacles.   
  • Harness your thoughts and actions to empower yourself.   
  • You control how you change.     
  • Limiting beliefs are inherited. You have power over your story.  
  • Set yourself up to make proactive decisions to get you to what you want.  
  • Mindful food and lifestyle choices lead to other better choices.   
  • Pay attention to your experiences without judgment.   
  • Stay open to all possibilities. Embrace the "Yes, and..." mindset.
