Do you wake up first thing in the morning in a bit of a panic? Worried about all the things you have to do or that could go wrong?
As someone who was constantly overthinking, worrying, and exhausted, I needed a shift. I wish I had these questions and this process sooner!
Tony Robbins shares a wonderful framework to help change the quality of the questions that we ask ourselves, which shifts the quality of our thoughts which shifts the quality of our emotions.
Morning Questions:
1.) What am I happy about in my life right now? What about that makes me happy? How does that make me feel?
2.) What am I excited about in my life right now? What about that makes me excited? How does that make me feel?
3.) What am I proud of in my life right now? What about that makes me proud? How does that make me feel?
