In this episode I have an amazing discussion with Andrew McConnell, author of the newly released Get Out of My Head: Creating Modern Clarity with Stoic Wisdom. Bombshells, you are going to want to listen to this one TWICE, take some notes, then order the book and download the free workbook, stat! Andrew outlines how to go from being a “mind tenant” to a “mind owner.” He says we spend far too much of our lives giving away our headspace to people who don’t deserve it, and leave ourselves renting the remnants as mental tenants. Our mind is our most valuable possession, Andrew says, so becoming a mind owner is the single best investment you can make.
Of course, we have a conversation that opens us both up to our personal experiences like how and when we’ve rented our headspace out and when we’ve been determined not to. One of the many reasons I just love Andrew is because he is both real and intentional, and I think you will find yourself lost in this conversation as you consider how many of your thoughts you own versus how many you surrender to others or even “other versions of yourself.” (Yeah, that one hit me in between the eyes, too! I SO do that sometimes! You’ll have to listen to find out what that means!)
It is true that our thoughts lead to beliefs and then action. So personally, I’m always a work in progress, but I can attest that when I have applied these principles, I have had much more success in managing my mind AND the outcomes in my life. So tune in now on your favorite listening app or watch it on YouTube to take back full ownership and occupancy of your mind!
