Choose Carefully the People in Your Life

In this episode of the Daily Mastermind, host George Wright III discusses the crucial importance of surrounding oneself with the right people. Referencing a quote by Les Brown, George highlights how others' opinions should not dictate one's reality. He explores the negative impacts of social media, competitive business environments, and negative influences on self-esteem and confidence. George provides actionable strategies to filter one's network, stop seeking external validation, and eliminate activities that don't align with personal goals. Emphasizing the concept of 'belief transference,' he stresses the benefits of being around positive, successful individuals to foster personal and professional growth. Listeners are encouraged to add one new positive influencer to their network and share the episode with others who might benefit from this advice.

Choose Carefully the People in Your Life

 My name's George Wright III and I am happy to be here. I'm super excited to be here. Whether it's morning, afternoon, or evening, doesn't matter 'cause you can always stand to get a little more inspiration, motivation, and education, and that's what warning Motivation does for you.

The Importance of Confidence

I'm really wanting to talk to you today about something a lot of you may be, in fact, most of you may be struggling with, may be thinking about or maybe just trying to find some new strategies for, and that's confidence because look, the bottom line is most successful people, most super, super successful people, and I'm talking 7, 8, 9 figure.

Mentors of mine have unstoppable, unshakeable confidence. And that is the key. That's the key to success, happiness, fulfillment, everything, whatever you want to call it. That's what it is because what people really struggle with is this, I. Low self-esteem, low self-worth, self-doubt, and there's no room for self-doubt when it comes to being successful and having a happy life.

I don't care if it's your relationships where you're doubting, your own self-worth, your business, it doesn't matter. The bottom line is you have to be able to overcome those negative influences in your life. Like low confidence, low self-esteem. And here's the thing, self-doubt and lack of self-esteem.

It's really overcome with increasing in building up your confidence and building up your confidence is a key, why would you want to have more confidence? Besides the obvious. Have more results in your life. Listen, when you have more confidence, you're gonna do more. You're gonna be more, you're gonna take more risks.

Your bottom line is your life is gonna live at a different level. And if you want to play all out, if you want to go at a number 10, many of you are thinking, I wanna be successful. I wanna play out. I'm hustling, I'm grinding. But if you're doing that with low. Confidence and low self-esteem, that's just a recipe for disaster.

You're, you are gonna be spinning your wheels, you're gonna get frustrated. And so I wanted to talk to you a little bit about this. It's a topic that's been on a lot of people's minds lately. A lot of people talk about increasing and creating unstoppable confidence. Tony Robbins at Mylet, Andy Fra.

We have, there's a lot of mentors of mine that talk about it, but I wanna dissect it for just a minute.

Core Beliefs for Building Confidence

I know we don't have a lot of time, so let's talk about the three core beliefs or areas that you have to work on, because until you dissect your confidence and dissect what it's gonna take, you can't create strategies and principles to fix it, right?

Just in a real brief couple of minutes here today, there's three areas that you need to develop more confidence in. Three areas that are gonna affect directly your confidence. One is your competence. Your competence. That means what you're good at, what you, your skill level. You know what you are.

If what you're working on right now, you don't have a high degree of competence, then that's where the education and training and knowledge base come in. Because I can tell you right now, the more competent you are at something, the more confidence you're gonna have. I think most of you would agree with that.

The second core area you need to work on is your ability. Or your belief, right? These are your beliefs, your belief in your competence, your belief in your ability to identify problems and solve them, right? And what I mean by this is most people go throughout their life with very limiting beliefs. They believe that anything outside their comfort zone will tear them down.

And the bottom line is. True success lives a hundred percent outside your comfort zone. And so if you are going to be able to increase your confidence, you have to increase your belief that you can identify and solve problems, which means anything you don't already understand. When you can increase your belief that no matter what hits you, you can solve those problems and you can create solutions, your confidence will go up because then you are already sure that no matter what happens to you, it's gonna ha you're gonna be able to solve it.

The last thing is you have to increase your belief in your own self-worth, right? Your own intrinsic value, your own intrinsic value is key to you having more confidence. You have to learn to increase that. And here's here, look, here's the bottom line, these three core beliefs, your competence, your ability to solve problems, and your own self-worth.

Most people look for solutions to those. Outside around them. How many of us look at, how many of us look at our confidence when we have more money, when we look better, when we drive a nicer car, when we get compliments, when we receive all those likes on Facebook, right? Or Instagram, or YouTube or Snapchat or whatever it is.

If you are basing your belief or your confidence on. Outside factors, it's your number one. I'm here to tell you, listen to me for a second. That's your number one mistake. Because you cannot build your true confidence with anything external. It has to be internal. You have to build your competence through your own personal development and learning.

You have to build your ability to solve problems and confidence in that, and you have to build your self-esteem. Internally. Once you do that, it won't matter how much money you have, what you look like, what you're, what people are telling you. Your confidence will be huge. That's why there's individuals that have confidence that's so huge.

You look at 'em like, man, that guy or that girl that should not have any confidence. They just, they look like a train wreck, but they are confident inside. They're confident inside. So I know we, we don't have a lot of time. So what I wanted to do for you today is give you those three beliefs, but I wanted to give you a couple of principles that I've learned, and these may or may not be ones that you've heard before.

In fact, most personal development is stuff you've heard before, but sometimes you need to apply it through a different lens. So I want you to apply it through this lens of these core beliefs and the understanding that everything you do is a limiting belief because all you know is what you've already done.

Lemme say that again. Everything you do is a limiting belief because all you know is what you've already done, and yet success lies outside what you've already done.

Success Formula and Principles

So with that in mind, there's a couple principles I'd like to just kinda share with you. One is, one principle. Is it, I guess you'd call it a success formula.

It's one used by t Harv Veer Harv, or Tony Robbins. A lot of guys out there. And that's this, it's a true success formula, and that is that your thoughts. Create feelings that result in actions that create the results in your life. So the way you think, your beliefs will create feelings in you that will drive your actions, right?

And that will lead to your results. So if you have strong beliefs. Then you are gonna have positive feelings and do a lot of action, and as a result, you're gonna get more results. The bottom line is results are just a function of your actions, but your actions will not increase if your beliefs and your feelings are not there.

So we talk about how do you increase your thoughts and your feelings internally. And there's a lot of ways to do that. You can get up and move. Tony Robbins talks about action creates emotion. It creates action. So just get up and move. Get up and move. I. Inundate your mind with positive thoughts.

Surround yourself with the right people. Do daily rituals, create things that create success. Even if you don't believe and have the faith yet in your own abilities, your own competence, your own self-worth, surround yourself with people that will help you to see the positive, right? And so remember this principle.

Your thoughts and your feelings lead to your actions and results. So just pouring more effort on your actions. Is not gonna do you any good if your beliefs are not being fixed. That's why personal development is the number one thing you should be doing in your life, because that works on the inside, right?

The inside will create the outside. The roots create the fruits. You've gotta be able to work on you in order to become a better person and have more success. So understand that success formula and understand that you've got to be able to work on your limiting beliefs right here. I'm pointing to your mind if you're driving and not looking in order to create better feelings, to create better actions in order to get results.

And there are a lot of other strategies we can talk about that will help you to create better feelings and get in state, get in a state of emotional strength. But I wanted to share that success principle with you.

Keeping Promises to Yourself

The second thing and I love how ed Mylet and a few others put it, and that is. A lot of times our self-confidence and our self-esteem gets worn away when we don't keep promises to ourself.

Every day, everything you do is either building up your self-esteem or it's tearing it down. And I want you to know that it's not just a, it's not just a catchphrase. When we say. How you do anything is how you do everything. Alright? If you say, I'm a hard worker in business, but you go home and you treat your relationships bad.

If you say, I'm a hard worker and I grind around everyone else, but when you're by yourself, you're not willing to pull your book out and read or meditate or work on your goals. Because remember, internally you're the only look, no, all this. Public social media stuff is not gonna do you any good if internally you're not becoming a better person.

So what I'm telling you is that the more you keep promises to yourself, the more your self-esteem, the more your self-worth, the more your confidence will grow. And it doesn't have to be big things. I'm not talking about I told myself I would lose 10 pounds. I told myself I'd hit this goal.

I'm talking about the little things because the little things become the big things, right? If you don't get up in the morning, I. Get up in the morning. And here's the bottom line to, in order to keep promises to yourself, the best thing you can do is create these daily rituals. We keep talking about, and I congratulate you for being on here with morning motivation, because that's a great way to start.

Keep the promises to yourself. Surround yourself with daily rituals that will help you to stay on track, because we all need help. We all need assistance, we all need mentoring. We all mean we all need that positive influence in our life.

Recap and Final Thoughts

So let's just recap real quick here. Confidence. Absolutely. A huge key ingredient in what you are gonna do in your life.

And in order to do that, in order to build up and overcome low self-esteem and self-doubt, you've gotta increase your confidence. And the bottom line is the best way to do that is to work on those three core beliefs of your confidence. And your ability to solve problems and your own self worth work on those things.

You can do it by focusing on your thoughts and your feelings, doing personal development. You can do it by keeping more promises to yourself. But that, I believe will really help you to increase your confidence. And then look, I'm gonna, I'm just gonna throw this out the obvious, but I want to end with this and that is flat out confidence builds confidence.

You can act confident even when you're not, you will get results. You'll do more action. You'll create more confidence. Confidence breeds confidence. Action creates results. You want more confidence, get more results, create more results. I. Increase your belief though at the same time where you're just gonna be working like crazy and not working in here and in here.

All right? So anyway, that's my message for today. I hope that's helped you. I hope that's something that you feel can benefit you in your life. And I believe that you have a lot of greatness in you. I believe that you can increase your confidence. I believe that people aren't born with confidence.

They gain confidence no matter where you're at, whether you're at a higher or low degree of confidence. Whether you have low self-esteem, low self-worth, you can absolutely change that by taking action, working on yourself, continuing to work through things on your own. This is gonna help you get to the next level.

So I'm George Wright III, and this has been The Daily Mastermind podcast and have an amazing day. I'll talk with you soon.
