Why Mindset Matters

I've been interested in learning new tools and techniques to better myself and my life for decades. At times I feel like I've experienced real growth and at other times I feel like I'm still at the starting gates of change.

Coming into 2025, off the back, of a very tough year being treated for breast cancer, I saw that Tony Robbins was running a free virtual event and signed up.

I believe our mindset, what we think and they way we think, is either helping us get our goals, or getting in the way of us achieving them. If we're not getting the outcomes we want, it's likely we need to change our mindset.

We also need to be particularly careful of the meaning we choose to give things, as some meanings disempower us, whilst other empower us to be more, do more and have more.

Below are 25 of the inspiring lessons/tips that I got from Tony during the Time to Rise Summit:

1. We experience life based on what we focus on. Where focus goes, energy flows.

2. Everything comes in seasons, and no season lasts forever.

3. Our identity is the most powerful force shaping our life and story.

4. Our beliefs about who we are, and aren't, are bigger than what we want to do.

5. Beliefs create or destroy, they make us move forward or pull back.

6. Beliefs are the controlling force in what we think, do, and experience.

7. Long-term change requires identity change.

8. The quality of our lives is linked to the quality of our emotions.

9. Beyond anger is hurt.

10. We need to divorce the story of limitation.

11. We are not our behaviour.

12. People do they best they can with the resources they have.

13. Our psychology determines our destiny.

14. Our deepest desires are the driving force of our story.

15. If we say we can't do something, we MUST, if it will make us a better person.

16. The purpose of a goal isn't getting the goal, it's who we become in the process.

17. Problems are part of life, the biggest issue is people thinking they shouldn't have problems.

18. We should find out how everything that happens in life can serve us.

19. We use stress, or it uses us.

20. Everyone can handle a tough time if they have a compelling future.

21. Knowledge is potential power, action is what matters.

22. Complexity is the enemy of execution.

23. Perfection is the lowest standard we could have. Perfect doesn't exist.

24. Thinking without action destroys potential, be a person of action not thinking.

25. The purpose of life is to grow, when we grow more we can give more, which makes life more meaningful.
