You don't have to feel ready to stop living on wishes.In this Afternoon Vibe from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence helps you turn wanting a different life into a standard you can act on now. Choose what is required instead of setting a goal so big you can't meet it or so easy it doesn't ask you to grow. Grace and honesty can exist together. If you're tired of starting over or feel behind, you're still worth the work. Hitting the standard moves you forward, and telling the truth about a miss and changing something does too. Write it down, take the action, and adjust the foundation instead of repeating the same attempt unchanged.In this episode:• "A wish is allowed to stay pretty."• "A standard is going to get dirty."• "A wish says, I want to change."• "A standard says, by this date, this measurable thing will be true because I made it true."• "Real grace doesn't erase standards. Real grace walks with you while you're facing them."• "No, a good standard is what's required."• "There's not a convenient time. There's only now."• "Write it down and go after it."• "You're worth it. You're not behind. You're not wrong. You're not too late."• "Adjust the foundation. Narrow the focus. Get help. You got to change something."Take the free Alignment Score: https://vibeabundant.com/alignment-score/Join Dream University for free: https://www.skool.com/dream-university-7023More from Henry Lawrence: https://vibeabundant.comFollow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.About Henry Lawrence: Henry is an executive, mindset and identity coach and the host of The Positive Mindset Podcast, on air since 2020 with nearly 17 million plays.Pulled from the full episode "How to Measure Real Progress: Going From Hoping It Happens to Becoming the Version of You That Hits the Standard" (Nov 2): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/How-to-Measure-Real-Progress-Going-From-Hoping-It-Happens-to-Becoming-the-Version-of-You-That-Hits-the-Standard-e3rkl1d

Changing the plan doesn't mean giving up on the dream.In this mindset shift from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence helps you stop treating an adjustment like a failure. Feeling out of place doesn't mean you can't grow, and forcing the same conditions isn't the only way to prove you believe in your dream. Face the yes or no, build the foundation you need, and give your goal a clear window instead of leaving it open forever. The work isn't about pretending to be perfect. It's about becoming honest enough to change what isn't working. It ends with the “I am chosen” deep breath, the rising tide and a prayer.In this episode:• "And truthfully, you're not broken for feeling it."• "It's not proof that you can't do this."• "The success is when I create the environment in which I succeed."• "It's okay if you need the job to build the business."• "There's no failure in adjusting the plan so that the dream stays alive."• "The proof doesn't have ego."• "Honesty is keeping you in the game long enough so you can rise."• "And when you get a no, you make the adjustments."• "If you have an open-ended goal, it's not really a goal."• "So rise up and become a rising tide that lifts all ships."Take the free Alignment Score: https://vibeabundant.com/alignment-score/Join Dream University for free: https://www.skool.com/dream-university-7023More from Henry Lawrence: https://vibeabundant.comFollow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.About Henry Lawrence: Henry is an executive, mindset and identity coach and the host of The Positive Mindset Podcast, on air since 2020 with nearly 17 million plays.Pulled from the full episode "How to Measure Real Progress: Going From Hoping It Happens to Becoming the Version of You That Hits the Standard" (Nov 2): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/How-to-Measure-Real-Progress-Going-From-Hoping-It-Happens-to-Becoming-the-Version-of-You-That-Hits-the-Standard-e3rkl1dMusic: 'Keep Me Honest (Instrumental Version)' by Maybe; 'A Step Ahead' by Experia; 'Anything for You (Instrumental Version)' by Adelyn Paik; 'With the Dawn' and 'Echoes of Illumination' by Megan Wofford, via Epidemic Sound.

Your dream has a price, and most of the time it isn't what you add. It's what you're willing to stop doing. Today is the day you stop chasing your dream and start becoming equal to it.In this best-of compilation from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence pulls together his best moments on the price of the dream from two episodes: why the Sermon on the Mount starts with seeing yourself as blessed, how everything breaks down to math, the hidden price of a dream that doesn't fit the life we're honoring, cutting the cords that hold you back, why the cost is the consequence, and how to become the evidence your dream is real.In this episode:• "You need to see yourself as blessed."• "What we can control is what we are in the equation."• "The dream we really want does not fit in the life we're currently honoring."• "It's what I don't do."• "I am equal to my dream."• "The cost is the consequence"• "Become the evidence your dream is real."• "It's what you don't do, especially when no one is watching."Take the free Alignment Score: https://vibeabundant.com/alignment-score/Join Dream University for free: https://www.skool.com/dream-university-7023More from Henry Lawrence: https://vibeabundant.comFollow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.Pulled from the full episodes "Your Dream Has a Price You Keep Avoiding | How to start NOW" (Oct 2): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/Your-Dream-Has-a-Price-You-Keep-Avoiding--How-to-start-NOW-e3ppg65and "How to Turn Your Dream Into Your Life!

Today is the day your Monday through Friday starts looking like the life you're dreaming of.In this best-of compilation from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence pulls together his best moments on living your dream every day from two episodes: why God puts dreams in our DNA, the two questions that let your dream get to know you, the perfect day exercise, the "my name is ___ and I'm here to change the world" statement, the side effect of becoming the proof, and why we are light bringers, gratitude in the flesh.In this episode:• "Your dream doesn't know who you are."• "What can I do today so that my dream knows me?"• "Your dreams are not for you. They are you."• "They would know your dream from the work"• "My name is Henry Lawrence and I am here to change the world"• "It's so difficult to be the proof."• "I was already here the whole time.

When you can be thankful for anything, you are free. Even the problem in front of you can become the ladder to your highest self.In this best-of compilation from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence pulls together his best moments on gratitude from two episodes: choosing who you want to be instead of living in reaction mode, why your perception is your reception, how gratitude is a ladder to your highest self, why the time you decide to say yes is the right time, and how to become the person who's thankful for the problem.In this episode:• "Your perception is your reception"• "The one thing that will truly get you through besides God Himself is gratitude."• "Gratitude is a ladder that taps you in to that version of yourself every single time."• "The time that you decide to say yes was the right time."• "Show that you can make something of anything and you will be given anything to make something of."• "When you can be thankful for anything, you are the one that's free."• "How can I be the person that's thankful for this problem?"• "You are more than your problems because you are created by something that's more than your problems"Take the free Alignment Score: https://vibeabundant.com/alignment-score/Join Dream University: https://www.skool.com/dream-university-7023/aboutMore from Henry Lawrence: https://vibeabundant.comFollow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.Pulled from the full episodes "The Gratitude Experiment: Start Becoming the Person You Want to Be" (Oct 5): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/The-Gratitude-Experiment-Start-Becoming-the-Person-You-Want-to-Be-e3pvgd1and "The Gratitude Ladder: How To Unlock Your Power When Life Gets Hard" (Oct 4): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/The-Gratitude-Ladder-How-To-Unlock-Your-Power-When-Life-Gets-Hard-e3pshbdMusic: "A Step Ahead" by Experia; "Anything for You (Instrumental Version)" by Adelyn Paik; "Keep Me Honest (Instrumental Version)" by Maybe; "With the Dawn," "Rise Beyond" and "Echoes of Illumination" by Megan Wofford; "The Substance of Hope" by JOYSPRING, via Epidemic Sound.About Henry Lawrence: Henry is an executive, mindset and identity coach and the host of The Positive Mindset Podcast, on air since 2020 with nearly 17 million plays.

If you keep asking yourself what you should do next, this episode is an invitation to ask a better question: who are you being? This was a special Saturday live, less structured than usual, where Henry works through a thought in real time — that doing can feel powerful, but if getting the thing means you keep changing who you are, your being has become negotiable.He talks about why we get so lost in the things that expire, why love without a choice isn’t love, and why “I am” is stronger than a to-do list. You’ll hear the I am practice he has used for years in coaching, and the one he is standing on now: I am pursuing Jesus. He isn’t asking you to take his statement. He’s asking you to choose yours, and to stop selling who you are just to get something done.In this episode:"Doing is nothing. Being is everything.""If the goal is to do the thing, then who you are, your being, is negotiable.""It's not about what I want to do. It's who do I want to be?""You do not have to be your feeling.""There's no compromise in a state of being.""If you'll adjust your being to do something, then you are selling it for the thing that you get.""Love without a choice isn't love.""I am pursuing Jesus.""If your number one focus is on what to be, then you will expand that.""Everything is happening for you."Take the free Alignment Score: vibeabundant.com/alignment-scoreJoin Dream University for free: www.skool.com/aboutMore from Henry Lawrence: vibeabundant.comFollow The Positive Mindset Podcast so you don’t miss tomorrow’s episode, and follow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.About Henry Lawrence: Henry is an executive, mindset and identity coach and the host of The Positive Mindset Podcast, on air since 2020 with nearly 17 million plays.

If a dream is going to come to you, you have to be able to receive it. Today is the day you stop carrying it all alone and start asking with your full chest.In this best-of compilation from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence pulls together his best moments on asking and receiving from two episodes: why the most giving people ask the least, how a giver who learns to receive gets to give even more, why the good people ask for things, believing you're worth helping, and becoming the living proof of your dream.In this episode:• "My name is Henry and I get what I ask for."• "If a dream is going to come to you, you got to be able to receive it."• "If you're a giver now, and then you learn to receive, you're actually gonna be able to give more"• "Our goal is to be able to just receive, receive from God"• "The good people ask for things."• "If you can believe that you're worth helping, that it is not a burden to support you"• "Ask for things and do good with what you receive."• "What if we're just waiting on today?"Take the free Alignment Score: https://vibeabundant.com/alignment-score/Join Dream University: https://www.skool.com/dream-university-7023/aboutMore from Henry Lawrence: https://vibeabundant.comFollow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.Pulled from the full episodes "How to Stop Blocking the Help That Could Change Your Life" (Oct 12): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/How-to-Stop-Blocking-the-Help-That-Could-Change-Your-Life-e3qddn7and "Stop Waiting to Feel Ready—Become the Proof Your Dream Is Possible" (Oct 1): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/Stop-Waiting-to-Feel-ReadyBecome-the-Proof-Your-Dream-Is-Possible-e3pn55hMusic: "Anything for You (Instrumental Version)" by Adelyn Paik; "A Step Ahead" by Experia; "Keep Me Honest (Instrumental Version)" by Maybe; "With the Dawn," "Rise Beyond" and "Echoes of Illumination" by Megan Wofford, via Epidemic Sound.About Henry Lawrence: Henry is an executive, mindset and identity coach and the host of The Positive Mindset Podcast, on air since 2020 with nearly 17 million plays.

If life knocked you down today, this is not where your story ends. You don’t have to pretend it doesn’t hurt. You do get to decide who you become as you move through it.This episode is a compilation from past episodes of The Positive Mindset Podcast. I went back through the catalog, from 2020 to now, not only to show the growth and understanding in this teaching, but how applying these things to myself has changed me.In this episode:“It's a gift that I get to learn again.”“You're experiencing those things, but you are not those things.”“Life isn't always going to be perfect, but there's always perfection in life.”“This is a practice. It's not perfection.”“Internally, the way we succeed in failure is we show up anyway.”“You'll have that win that nobody can take away from you.”“You are absolutely worth fighting for.”“We mess up, we get knocked down, but we can get back up.”“I am the proof that the dream is still real because I'm gonna keep showing up.”“That's a lighthouse when it's needed most.”Find your next aligned step with the Alignment Score:https://vibeabundant.com/alignment-score/Join Dream University for free:https://www.skool.com/dream-university-7023/aboutMore: https://vibeabundant.comFollow The Positive Mindset Podcast so you don’t miss tomorrow’s episode, and follow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.Pulled from these episodes:• Never give up!

So what do we do with the weight so it doesn't own your weekend?In this Afternoon Vibe from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence walks you through four Friday traps: numbing until Monday, replaying the week like a courtroom, waiting to feel lighter before you live, and carrying everyone else's weight while calling it love. Rest restores you; numbing just makes time disappear. Feelings are terrible bosses, and ready is what happens after you move. Take the walk, ask for the help, and give yourself an hour so you don't close every week the same way.In this episode:• "So what do we do with the weight?"• "Rest is important, but numbing is not the same as rest."• "Rest restores you. Numbing just makes time disappear."• "Are you resting? Are you hiding?"• "Feelings are terrible bosses."• "Ready is what happens after you move."• "You'd give anyone the world except yourself."• "Wanting peace, flexibility, health, or your own time, that's not selfish."• "Give yourself just an hour."Take the free Alignment Score: https://vibeabundant.com/alignment-score/Join Dream University: https://www.skool.com/dream-university-7023/aboutMore from Henry Lawrence: https://vibeabundant.comFollow @realhenryg on Instagram and TikTok.About Henry Lawrence: Henry is an executive, mindset and identity coach and the host of The Positive Mindset Podcast, on air since 2020 with nearly 17 million plays.Pulled from the full episode "How to Close the Week Strong: Going From Carrying the Weight to Walking Free Into the Weekend" (Oct 30): https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/positive-mindset-podcast/episodes/How-to-Close-the-Week-Strong-Going-From-Carrying-the-Weight-to-Walking-Free-Into-the-Weekend-e3reciu

You've made it through another week. Now put some of the weight down and walk into the weekend free.In this mindset shift from The Positive Mindset Podcast, Henry Lawrence helps you close the week strong without pretending it was easy. If the mornings got heavy, you lost a rhythm, or you left comfort for alignment and the road got harder, you're not lazy and you're not broken. See yourself as a trailblazer, pick one I am statement for the weekend, write down what you're putting down until Monday, and take one identity action before Sunday night. It ends with a closing deep breath, the rising tide and a prayer.In this episode:• "I want you to close strong."• "You're not lazy."• "You're not broken."• "You're somebody who just lost a coping strategy."• "It's love, cause I'm there."• "I am brave for doing this."• "Start seeing yourself as a trailblazer, someone that is going out into the world and laying claim on the life that they want."• "Life doesn't get easier first, you get stronger first."• "You are absolutely becoming the proof."• "It's happening for you.
