From Resistance to Embracing Mel Robbins #5SecondRule
Listen now
Description
Sometimes we humor our knee-jerk reactions of resistance too much. In this episode, I talk about Mel Robbins’ The 5 Second Rule, explaining why and how to listen more to our good impulses before doubts have a chance to creep in.  I summarize Mel’s thesis: that, if you don’t physically act on an impulse within five seconds, you kill it. I explain why my knee-jerk reaction was to resist her message and why I’ve been converted. I note the power of counting backward, explaining why it’s effective, and I explore the different ways to use the #5SecondRule. “Any time there is something you know you should do, but you feel uncertain, afraid, or overwhelmed, just take control by counting backwards. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. That will quiet your mind. Then, move when you get to 1.” - Mel Robbins This Week on The Mindset Zone: Mel Robbins’ 5 Second Rule Why your problem isn’t that you don’t have enough ideas Why counting down to the moment of action is effective The different ways to use the 5 Second Rule How a triangle can help us change Resources Mentioned: The 5 Second Rule by Mel Robbins Mel Robbins: How to Stop Screwing Yourself Over Expand what's possible!
