thousands of people that listen to this podcast. And just by looking at the statistics every single day that come out, and over 500 people have joined the webinars, which means there's a lot of people that still haven't. I have been doing some super in-depth webinars. I love this podcast. It's amazing, but I can only get so much out in 10 or 15 minutes. So these webinars are 45 minutes to an hour and you're going to learn some super in-depth stuff

of how to master your mind. So if you want to join a webinar, they're free. It's mwfmotivation.com slash webinar. And you can see when the next webinar is coming up and sign up for it for free to join us in there. And last but not least, the one-on-one coaching and the group coaching. I've had some people reaching out and saying, Hey, when's the next time your group coaching is going to be open? The group coaching is always open, but the price just goes up the longer that you wait to join it. So if you're a person who's wanting to take the next step in their life, you feel like you're

stuck, you feel like there's something that you need to do, but you're not quite sure what it is, or there's something that's holding you back, you have mental barriers that are just holding you back, you can't figure out how, I do have a group coaching and one-on-one coaching. If you send me an email, rob at mwfmotivation.com, we can talk about it and see if one of those might be for you. And also, I do have to make an announcement as far as the book goes. As some of you guys know, the past couple months have been saying the book will not be available anymore. But I realized I made a huge mistake. The huge mistake was that I have 150 episodes previously to this

that are already up into the interwebs that say if somebody goes to my website, they'll get it for free. So I made the mistake of realizing that I can't ever take that down, I guess. I don't know if that's going to have to be there forever. So as a part of that, there is going to be something new coming out that you are going to be able to get for free for those of you that have already gotten that book. So long story short, let's dive in. Let's start season two. And I want to talk about the two most important words in the entire English language. And the reason why is because I've started to notice patterns that people have by saying I am. And those are the, if you want to know, those are the two most important words. I'm going to talk about the two most important words in English language or any

language. And that is, I am. Why are the two most powerful words? It's been a while, guys. Why are they the two most powerful words? Because those words are either building you up or breaking you down. Those words that you say, I am blank. That blank better be a really freaking empowering word or empowering sentence, or you're breaking yourself down every single time that you say it. When you confirm out loud, or if you're talking to yourself, your subconscious, there's a difference between your subconscious and your conscious. Your conscious mind can only hold one thought at a time. It's me speaking to you, me making me, I'm thinking and then speaking right away. And that's all that my conscious mind can hold on to. My subconscious mind though,

has all of everything that's stored. My entire life that's ever happened is back there. And the thing about your subconscious mind, it does not know what is true and what is false. So if you're saying, I am stupid, I am... Let's just use that example. I am stupid. Well, then your subconscious mind is going to store that over and over and over again. I'm actually very hesitant just to say it for you guys on this podcast because I don't want my own personal subconscious to store that I'm stupid. I don't want that because I'm not stupid. And so you have to realize what you say out loud, I'm not a good reader.

I'm stupid. I don't know. I'm not really good at that. I'm not blank. I am blank. Whatever it is, it has to be empowering. I can't go in-depth in the subconscious because that's a whole other topic on its own. I go much more in-depth in it in my group coaching. But you have to realize your subconscious does not know what is true or false. Therefore, whatever you say,

your subconscious will think is true and it will store it as such. The problem is that most people don't understand this and they're saying things out loud or even in their head like, I am stupid. I am ugly. I am slow. I am fat. I am unathletic. I am not enough. I am not smart enough. I am not qualified. I am emotional. All of these things. I hate saying it out loud just to say it on the podcast. I have to, but because I don't want my own personal subconscious to listen to these and so on is true. Now, that being said, it also doesn't know what is true is if you start using empowering stuff. I am amazing. I am smart. I love myself. Whatever it is that you say, I am blank. I am really great at doing this. Right? It might sound very woo-woo-y of, oh, I'm just going to build

myself up and talk out loud and say I love myself and say I'm amazing and say all of these things. Well, if your self-confidence is low at this point, or you don't think that you're good at something, you might as well give it a shot and try to start saying empowering things. And here's the deal. A lot of my coaching clients, I noticed this with them, is after a month, two months with me, whatever it might be, they start to catch themselves saying stuff out loud. And they're like, blah, blah, blah. Oh, actually, crap. No, no, no. I wasn't supposed to say that. And they'll catch themselves saying these things they're not supposed to say. Like, I am not good at that. I am not blank. Whatever it is. I am not enough. I'm not smart

enough. Whatever it is. I'm not qualified. I'm not fast enough. Whatever it is. All of those things. They'll say it out loud and they'll go, oh, sorry, I made a mistake. And they'll realize, they'll catch themselves. Realize this. You can't control your first thought, but you can always control your second thought. Therefore, if you catch yourself saying something that is not empowering out loud, you immediately, and you might hear me snapping, immediately at that very second, switch it and say something empowering in its place. If you say one empowering thing, replace that with 10, one unempowering thing, one thing that breaks you down. If you say one of those things, immediately switch it with 10 empowering things and say it out loud because your subconscious

is going to store it as true. And if I say one negative thing, well, I'm going to want it and it's going to store that. I'm going to want it to store 10 positive things in place of that. You have to use this as repetition. You're either breaking yourself down or you're building yourself up with every single thing that you say. And you might think that that's weird. Words don't exist. Words exist in a physical form. If you look at somebody's brain, you can actually see the chemical activity changing based on what they say to themselves or what they think about. So if you are saying, I am blank, and that blank is not empowering, you need to immediately change it and start saying something empowering.

And you have to do this with repetition. You have to use incantations. Even if you don't believe it at first, you will start to. And if you don't know what an incantation is, if you're new, you can go back and listen to some of my episodes where I talk about incantations, but it's basically like an affirmation where you say something to yourself, but you use your physiology, use your power, use your body, use your breath. You do everything that you can to physically put it out there in the open and your brain will start to store whatever you say as true quicker. In group coaching, I teach what I feel is the most important thing. God honest truth in my mind, the most important thing people will ever learn in their entire

lives. And that's something called your paradigm. And I go extremely in depth in your paradigm. It is the most important thing you will ever learn. I'm willing to die for that statement. It is the most important thing that you will ever learn. Your'm willing to die for that statement. It is the most important thing that you will ever learn. Your paradigm is what is holding you back or pushing you forward. Your paradigm is your story, is your worldview, is what you're saying to yourself over and over and over again. And I can't do an episode on it because it wouldn't do it justice because it needs a long lesson. I have actually three long lessons on paradigm and how it works in your life in my group coaching because it is that important. I can't do it in a 10-minute episode. But what

I'll tell you is this. Your paradigm is your entire worldview. Everything. Therefore, you must learn to use empowering words, whatever it is, for this phrase of I am all the time because it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Whatever you say and whatever you think about most, you will become. Let me say that again. Whatever you say and whatever you think about most, you will become. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy. No professional athlete has ever gotten there by not believing in themselves. No actors have ever gotten there

by not believing in themselves. No millionaires have ever gotten there. No billionaires have ever gotten there by not believing in themselves or just happy people in general. You don't have to be rich and successful and all those things. Happy people are happy because of what they think about and what they say and what they focus on. So to wrap it all up, if you were to write down on a piece of paper, I am blank. Take this with you for the rest of your life. That next word or next sentence better be empowering or you're just breaking yourself down with every single word that you say after that because your subconscious

is storing whatever you say as true and you will be creating a self-fulfilling prophecy, whether it's a good one or whether it's a bad one, is up to you, your choices, your decisions, your thoughts, and your words.
