Text me right now 512-580-9305. Once again, 512-580-9305. Today I'm going to be talking about how the thoughts that you think, how the words that you say actually create the reality that you live in now and the reality that you will live in in the future. No matter what language you speak, your words are the most powerful or destructive tool that you have for yourself, but also for other people. Words can be very, very powerful. They can build you up, they can build other people up. They can be very powerful in the fact that they can just build, you know, take people down, destroy them, and be very destructive. Not just the words that you use as well, but also behind all words is the energy behind words, the energy that you're using behind your words to yourself, the energy behind the words that you're using to other people. That's what matters the most. Energy carries through your thoughts, through your words, through your actions, and creates your reality. You are literally a magician. You see, you speak, you create. And I think too many people don't really understand how powerful of creators they actually are. I think that humans are probably about a million times more powerful than we have been thought to believe that we are. And if you go back, there's actually a word, and I've spoken about this before on the podcast, there's actually a word that is abracadabra. And abracadabra, when I was a kid was like, oh, abracadabra is just the word that magicians say when they pull a rabbit out of a hat. But abracadabra is actually an ancient Hebrew word that means, as I speak, I create. As I speak, I create. As I speak out loud, I'm creating that reality, what is speaking in your head called thoughts. So also as I think, I create you. Whether you realize it or not, whether you want to believe it or not, you manifest with every word that you speak. Manifest literally means to create. So you either create the exact same life that you currently have, or you create a better one. And so many people take their past, and because they want to predict their future, they take their past and they throw it onto their future to try to predict their future. And they're like, well, you know, this is just the way my life is. I was on a call with someone in my group, Mindset University, this week, and the lady said, I know exactly what my future is going to be because it's always the same as my past. And I said, you know what your future is going to be? And she's like, yeah. And I was like, you can tell me with 100% certainty what's going to happen next Tuesday? And she's like, well, no, not really. And I was like, so can you tell me with 100% certainty what's going to Happen tomorrow. She's like, no. And I was like, so then you can't predict your future. The thing that you're doing is you're taking an old version of yourself five years, 10 years, 20 years ago. You're throwing it into the future and going, well, this is what I've always been, so that's what I'm always going to be. You're taking old behaviors of the past, making it your identity of who you are, and then thinking that's. You're trying to predict the future. That's who you're going to be in the future. So how are you thinking? How are you speaking about who you are, about other people, about what you're creating, about what's possible for you? You ever know someone? I have a friend like this, and I used to be this way until I realized, like, I need to really change this. But I have a friend, and you probably know somebody who just always talks about how poor they are. Like, in a funny way. They always make, oh, I'm just so broke. I never have any money. They make all of these broke jokes. They're going to be poor forever if they don't stop those broke jokes. If they don't stop talking about how. How poor they are. I have a friend who won't stop talking about. He's been my friend since high school. We are now almost approaching 40, and he's still broke. And I remember when we were younger, we used to always make these jokes because we both grew up poor and without any money. And then I was like, hey, I need to kind of stop this if I want to be different. Abracadabra as you speak, then you create. They will continue to create that life. Anybody will continue to create that life until they change their words. So if you want to change your life, the first thing you need to do is change your thoughts. And to change your words. You have to speak. If you want your life to be better. You have to speak above your current circumstances. You have to speak about yourself better than your current circumstances, better than your past. Don't ever identify with something. So often people will come and they'll say, rob, I have anxiety. I'm like, don't identify with that. Because if you say, I have anxiety or I'm anxious, I'm anxious. That is me placing a label on top of myself. It's like saying, hey, I'm, you know, I'm Rob. Well, then I'm going to think I'm Rob forever, because that's what I think I am, right? If I say I'm anxious. Well, then I'm just. That's just. That's my label. That's just who I am. That's just how I am. I would switch it to, I've had anxiety in the past, or I'm getting over my anxiety, or I'm getting better with. With my anxiety. So back when I was 27 years old, I went to a physical therapist, and the physical therapist had shoulder issues and hip issues. And he's like, you should go get an mri. So I got an mri, and it turned out that I had four torn labrum. So I had one in each shoulder and one in each hip. And they're like, oh, my God, we've never seen this before. We should do surgery. And for years, I listened to people who were wearing white coats and thought there was something wrong with me. And then I ended up going to my uncle who lived in Florida, who's a physical therapist. Like, yeah, people tear labrums all the time. Actually, a lot of people don't have labrum or they have labrum tears, and they go through their entire life and have no idea. And so because I was listening to people in white coats, I had thought there was something wrong with me, and I stopped working out as much. I started thinking I needed surgery because I went to a surgeon and told me I needed surgery on both of my shoulders and both my hips. And I was like, man, I shouldn't be this way. I'm only 27 years old. And then one time I was at my friend's house, and I was talking to his wife, and I was talking about how I literally said it. I go. I go, yeah, I just have shoulder. And I take a step back, and I go, I've had shoulder issues in the past. And she's like, whoa, you just stopped yourself in order to change your belief about yourself, didn't you? And I was like, yeah. I started saying to her, I have shoulder issues, which is now me speaking my reality into existence. Like, these seem like little teeny, tiny things, but this is what really makes a difference in people's identity and what they think is possible for themselves. So I was saying, I have shoulder issues. And in the middle of saying it, I switch it to, I have had shoulder issues. I had shoulder issues because for years, my shoulder issues, my. You know, my hip issues, that I had created a view of myself as if there was some sort of a deficit. And because I thought I was at a deficit, I didn't work out as hard. I didn't do as many sports as I wanted to. I stopped playing intramural basketball, intramural football, all of those things and we will be right back.
