  • I want to talk to you today about the right recording.
  • 00:01:23.406 --> 00:01:25.775
  • There's a recording
  • 00:01:26.042 --> 00:01:27.110
  • There's a recording constantly playing in our
  • 00:01:27.177 --> 00:01:28.444
  • Constantly playing in our mind telling us who we are.
  • 00:01:28.511 --> 00:01:31.447
  • Mind telling us who we are. the problem for some people
  • 00:01:31.514 --> 00:01:33.216
  • The problem for some people is their recording
  • 00:01:33.283 --> 00:01:34.350
  • Is their recording is negative.
  • 00:01:34.417 --> 00:01:35.885
  • Is negative. it's been that way so long,
  • 00:01:35.952 --> 00:01:37.587
  • It's been that way so long, they don't realize it.
  • 00:01:37.654 --> 00:01:39.122
  • They don't realize it. something is always telling
  • 00:01:39.189 --> 00:01:40.490
  • Something is always telling them, "you're not attractive.
  • 00:01:40.557 --> 00:01:42.425
  • Them, "you're not attractive. you're not talented.
  • 00:01:42.492 --> 00:01:43.793
  • You're not talented. you don't have
  • 00:01:43.860 --> 00:01:44.427
  • You don't have a good personality.
  • 00:01:44.494 --> 00:01:45.562
  • A good personality. you've made
  • 00:01:45.628 --> 00:01:46.229
  • You've made too many mistakes."
  • 00:01:46.296 --> 00:01:47.630
  • Too many mistakes." they wonder why they don't
  • 00:01:47.697 --> 00:01:49.098
  • They wonder why they don't feel good about themselves,
  • 00:01:49.165 --> 00:01:50.500
  • Feel good about themselves, it's because
  • 00:01:50.567 --> 00:01:51.568
  • It's because of that recording.
  • 00:01:51.634 --> 00:01:53.336
  • Of that recording. some of this started
  • 00:01:53.403 --> 00:01:54.470
  • Some of this started back in childhood.
  • 00:01:54.537 --> 00:01:56.072
  • Back in childhood. somebody told them
  • 00:01:56.139 --> 00:01:57.006
  • Somebody told them they weren't smart,
  • 00:01:57.073 --> 00:01:58.274
  • They weren't smart, they weren't talented,
  • 00:01:58.341 --> 00:01:59.409
  • They weren't talented, they would never
  • 00:01:59.475 --> 00:01:59.943
  • They would never accomplish much.
  • 00:02:00.009 --> 00:02:01.844
  • My senior year in high
  • 00:02:02.078 --> 00:02:03.112
  • My senior year in high school, we all went to talk
  • 00:02:03.179 --> 00:02:04.814
  • School, we all went to talk with a counselor to discuss
  • 00:02:04.881 --> 00:02:06.649
  • With a counselor to discuss what we wanted to do in life.
  • 00:02:06.716 --> 00:02:09.052
  • What we wanted to do in life. my friend told him
  • 00:02:09.118 --> 00:02:10.286
  • My friend told him that he wanted to become
  • 00:02:10.353 --> 00:02:11.421
  • That he wanted to become a medical doctor.
  • 00:02:11.487 --> 00:02:13.156
  • A medical doctor. the counselor may have meant
  • 00:02:13.223 --> 00:02:14.757
  • The counselor may have meant well, but he told my friend
  • 00:02:14.824 --> 00:02:17.193
  • Well, but he told my friend that he didn't have
  • 00:02:17.260 --> 00:02:17.727
  • That he didn't have the skills to do that.
  • 00:02:17.794 --> 00:02:19.662
  • He should look for
  • 00:02:19.929 --> 00:02:20.396
  • He should look for a field that he did
  • 00:02:20.463 --> 00:02:21.197
  • A field that he did more physical work.
  • 00:02:21.264 --> 00:02:22.932
  • More physical work. my friend came back
  • 00:02:22.999 --> 00:02:24.133
  • My friend came back so deflated.
  • 00:02:24.200 --> 00:02:25.735
  • So deflated. he didn't know any better.
  • 00:02:25.802 --> 00:02:27.403
  • He didn't know any better. he let that play over
  • 00:02:27.470 --> 00:02:28.972
  • He let that play over and over, "you don't have
  • 00:02:29.038 --> 00:02:30.540
  • And over, "you don't have the skills.
  • 00:02:30.607 --> 00:02:31.241
  • The skills. you're not good enough,"
  • 00:02:31.307 --> 00:02:32.475
  • You're not good enough," and because of those
  • 00:02:32.542 --> 00:02:34.077
  • And because of those negative words,
  • 00:02:34.143 --> 00:02:35.245
  • Negative words, he never did pursue
  • 00:02:35.311 --> 00:02:36.679
  • He never did pursue that dream.
  • 00:02:36.746 --> 00:02:38.314
  • That dream. are you letting what somebody
  • 00:02:38.381 --> 00:02:39.916
  • Are you letting what somebody said hold you back?
  • 00:02:39.983 --> 00:02:42.118
  • Said hold you back? have you allowed it to become
  • 00:02:42.185 --> 00:02:43.486
  • Have you allowed it to become a part of the recording
  • 00:02:43.553 --> 00:02:45.321
  • A part of the recording that plays in your mind?
  • 00:02:45.388 --> 00:02:47.390
  • That plays in your mind? the good news is you control
  • 00:02:47.457 --> 00:02:49.859
  • The good news is you control your recording.
  • 00:02:49.926 --> 00:02:51.394
  • Your recording. you don't have to let
  • 00:02:51.461 --> 00:02:52.462
  • You don't have to let the negative keep playing.
  • 00:02:52.528 --> 00:02:54.497
  • The negative keep playing. the key is turn off
