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."
