Describe a time in your life when you "expected" a negative outcome.   What happened?   This is a thought provoking question posited from The Rudder of the Day, by Dan Miller.   He writes, "The importance of planting wholesome, life-enriching thoughts in our minds in that first hour of the day cannot be overemphasized. I never read the paper first thing in the morning, no matter how important it may seem to know the news. The news is filled with rape, murder, pestilence, and heartache, and that is not the input I want in my brain. Later in the day, I can scan the news for anything related to my areas of interest and quickly sort through what I need. But I carefully protect that first hour of the day, making sure that all input is positive, clean, pure, creative and inspirational."  Rob shares how his negative expectations eventually manifested in his behaviors and actions - creating a vicious cycle that continued to become more negative...and the tools he is using to empower himself to repattern his brain and create a more positive and balanced life.  ~ Connect on social media!  Twitter - https://twitter.com/allaroundgrowthTelegram Group Chat - https://t.me/allaroundgrowthFlote - https://flote.app/allaroundgrowthFacebook Page - https://www.facebook.com/allaroundgrowthFacebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/allaroundgrowth~  Subscribe to the All Around Growth Podcast Telegram Channel for show updates ONLY:    https://t.me/allaroundgrowthpodcast  ~Follow this link to ALL EPISODES   ~ How To Leave a Rating & Review in Apple Podcast AppThis really *does* affect the algorithm......as of recording in January 2022 - I would invite you to do this!The podcast game is changing - help us with a rating and review!~Have a Question or any feedback for Rob?Send me an email at allaroundgrowth@gmail.com~  Discussion Links:The Rudder of the Day  - Dan Miller    FREE DOWNLOAD - 2022 Goal Setting Workbook  Backpack Studio - Leave your equipment at home.
