Hello and welcome to two minutes of inspiration. I'm Dan Clark, great to have you with me today. It looks like I have missed the last number of weeks, two weeks in January and oh my goodness gracious. So let's actually make up that time. You know, the calendar actually continues no matter what we think about what's going on. And most people actually carry the same internal conversations right along with that type of dialog, and that's kind of what I did, right? I kind of missed all those things about going on. We do get distracted. So we have these things called the same doubts, the same self criticism, the same quiet resignation. And we often say things like, oh, this year we'll be different. We're still making and talking to ourselves about the same way we did last year, but do we really want to be that way? So here's the truth. Your life follows your internal language. I know you know that's true. We've talked about it before, and it's more than just your attention. So if that voice in your head says, I really mess up, or I always do things that I don't like to do, or this is how I really am, then your year is going to be programmed by those words. You've already started the year thinking about the way you were last year. Let's change those goals. Let's think about it from a different perspective. Change doesn't begin with goals. It begins with noticing what you're saying to yourself inside yourself. So here's what I want you to do for an assignment for this week, and particularly today, I want you to be saying to yourself, I am changing who I am. I'm becoming more connected with what I want to do, and I am looking forward to today and how I feel about today. Because remember, if nothing changes in your inner dialog and in your inner conversation, then this is just something that is irrelevant to your calendar and accomplishing your goals. I love you. I'm Dan Clark.
