Mind , your Mind . Have you ever wondered

0:12

how well you maximize the opportunities that

0:14

you are presented

0:20

with ? Do you have your eyes open and , above all , your mind open

0:22

to seize good opportunities ? What kind

0:24

of opportunities ? For

0:31

example , the opportunity to take care of your health

0:34

, to develop your skills , or the opportunity to

0:36

solve a situation that concerns you ? There

0:40

are often opportunities

0:42

to put your limits on a relationship , personal

0:44

or professional , but do you do it ? Do

0:49

you do something or let the moment pass ? Opportunities

0:52

don't always come with very big announcements

0:54

and bright colors signs . Many

0:58

times , it's the small everyday moments

1:00

that can make the big difference in our lives . It's

1:03

certain that at this moment , there are

1:05

available opportunities for improvement in the issues that

1:07

interest us . Opportunity

1:10

is the good time to

1:13

do something that will serve your needs and goals . That's

1:15

what we call opportunity . Our

1:19

life gives us such moments , such opportunities , and

1:21

it is a very valuable gift . The question

1:23

is what

1:34

do you see ? Are you there

1:36

to accept it more than anything else ? Thank you . And

1:39

opportunities are presented in ways

1:41

that we don't expect or don't recognize immediately

1:44

. It is important to have an open mind and

1:46

a heart , I could say , to

1:49

see beyond the obvious . This

1:52

episode that you hear will

1:54

help you to open your eyes to

1:58

opportunities that you may not notice , that exist , and

2:00

I will share ways to also open your mind so

2:05

that you can overcome your resistance and say yes

2:07

at any opportunity to

2:11

take a step closer to

2:13

achieving your goals . Whoever he is , stay with me

2:16

. Bring

2:21

something to your mind that you want to achieve , to

2:23

change , to create , which you have not yet achieved

2:25

, maybe because you put it back , waiting for

2:27

some other moment . The

2:31

other moment is now , so

2:35

don't let the flexibility determine your course . Keep

2:38

in mind this issue as you listen to

2:41

the episode . It

2:50

will help you a lot to focus on what you will share

2:52

in relation to this thing that interests

2:54

you personally . Thank you for watching

2:56

. The first reason is that you have created in your mind a very specific

2:58

image of how the opportunity

3:00

looks like . Is this true ? You

3:08

may have imagined it in certain conditions , parameters

3:11

. If you expect to see

3:14

something exactly as you imagined it , then

3:16

it is possible , when opportunities appear that have other forms

3:18

, that you do not recognize them . I will give you

3:20

an example . A

3:22

few months ago , in the context of a group of conferences , a

3:25

girl , ioanna , mentioned something

3:27

that she was deeply displeased with . The

3:30

problem is that , due to many obligations , she

3:32

did not have the opportunity to deal with her hobby , which was

3:34

photography . To

3:37

her own credit , however , photography is an activity

3:39

that makes her feel good , that

3:42

helps her find herself , and she misses it a lot in

3:44

her life helps herself to find herself , and

3:46

she misses her life a lot . As I was examining ways to dance and

3:48

again photographs of her life , I suggested to her how to create

3:50

time signed to the activity

3:52

, to her beloved activity , and

3:54

then the contradictions appeared . You

3:57

know , I used to go for a photo another

3:59

time and not the one you suggest , or

4:07

just 45 minutes I had in . Thank

4:10

you that she has the opportunity , from the next

4:12

day and all , to catch her favorite camera , which

4:26

she had left for about two and a half years . The

4:29

next day , ioanna shared with me her

4:32

first photos after so long , and

4:35

her joy was unrivaled . This

4:38

example shows how important it is to

4:41

be open to opportunities , even

4:43

if they do not come in the form we expect them to

4:45

. She had the opportunity

4:47

to photograph , but not with the data she

4:49

already had in her mind , so

4:51

it wasn't logical for her to miss something

4:54

that was so important for her mental balance due

4:58

to these ideas and limitations she had set . I

5:00

see this motive appearing very often in

5:02

my meetings and in my conversations with

5:04

people . Sometimes

5:08

it may have to do with the fact that I don't have the opportunity

5:10

to ask for the promotion I want , or

5:12

I don't get the opportunity to show what I deserve . Are you

5:15

sure , or are you waiting

5:17

for a very specific scenario to appear ? Food

5:19

for thought Life

5:22

is full of expected opportunities . Food for thought Life is full of expected opportunities

5:24

. The key is to be ready to see them and to

5:27

absorb them when they appear

5:29

. Opportunities

5:35

are not always obvious , but if we have

5:37

an open mind and heart , we can recognize

5:39

the ability in every situation and use it in the best way

5:41

. Remember the opportunity

5:44

is there . You

5:50

are available . The second very common

5:52

way with which you might close the door to opportunities is

5:54

by maintaining behaviors that

5:56

do not coincide with your goals , with your

5:58

desires . For whatever

6:00

we want to achieve , there are some prerequisites . If

6:03

we want to lose weight , for example , we have

6:05

to change our dietary habits . You

6:07

can't continue with the same habits and place the responsibilities

6:10

on the lack of opportunities . Do you agree

6:12

? I

6:17

remember , a few years ago , a good friend of mine complained

6:19

that he hasn't slept well in a long time Because

6:22

of his bad sleep . He felt constantly tired and exhausted . It's natural Because of his bad sleep . He

6:24

felt constantly tired and exhausted . It's natural Because

6:27

this situation affects health . In

6:29

this particular case , this person was affected by his

6:31

health , his performance at work , but

6:33

also his relationships . So

6:36

he expressed his desire to help him

6:38

improve his sleep program . During

6:40

the conversation he pointed out how important it

6:43

was for him to achieve his goal . He

6:45

said I will do what I need to do . His

6:47

problem was that he would stay up either in front of

6:50

the TV or on the computer to relax and

6:52

work well , to

6:57

help him , I designed and gave him a night routine

6:59

program with practices that prepare the body for good sleep

7:01

, for quiet sleep . Seeing

7:09

the program , my friend was excited and was waiting to

7:11

do it and obviously to see the results , wanting

7:13

to know how he would do with the application of the program I gave

7:15

him . I took his

7:18

phone after a week and he was

7:20

repeating on the phone that he was waiting for his sleep

7:22

to improve . But at the same time

7:24

he informed me that unfortunately he had not been

7:26

able to apply the program for any of the

7:28

seven days . He had it in his hands . So I

7:30

asked him to explain to me what

7:33

was it that stopped him , what had occurred

7:36

every day for the seven days , and he didn't

7:38

do it . Some of the reasons he

7:40

mentioned were that he wanted to see my team on

7:44

TV . It was an important game and

7:46

he played a lot at night . On the other hand

7:48

, I had a conversation with

7:53

my wife and the time time

7:55

to go without understanding

7:57

it , and she finally told me the following

7:59

Because I didn't keep it for the first three days

8:01

what we agreed on , I left it and

8:04

decided to start again the next

8:06

week on Monday . This Monday has been a relaxing

8:08

factor for success in many cases , for many people

8:10

. My friend had every day the opportunity

8:13

to improve his sleep . Even

8:18

if one day he couldn't do it , he always had the opportunity to

8:20

try again the next day , but

8:23

his behavior and attitude , the way he thought

8:26

, hindered him . Different situations happen

8:28

to all of us for different things . They

8:37

may not happen to us for seven days

8:39

, but for months , for years . Thank you very much . Our lives better

8:41

the next day , not the ideal day , so

8:54

it is worth examining through the story I shared

8:56

with my friend in what

8:58

your behavior needs to be acknowledged

9:00

. Is

9:03

there something that you feel that you really want to

9:05

achieve and your behavior is not

9:07

aligned with this purpose , with your purpose

9:09

? If so , I remind

9:11

you that there are ways , tools and

9:14

methods to build up

9:16

the habits and mentalities that

9:18

sabotage you . You can

9:20

always decide to build up new habits

9:22

and mentalities that will lead you

9:24

forward in your life . Sometimes

9:27

, in order to achieve this , you need training , and

9:29

I offer such training , and

9:31

you can find them on my website , wwwkostantinosicom

9:34

. This will help you

9:36

to do as I said training in

9:40

order to improve your vision and manage your

9:42

emotions and behavior more effectively . Go

9:47

to my website and check it out . We

9:49

are made to change and evolve . It

9:53

is our responsibility to change ourselves , giving

9:56

it that form that makes us feel deeply

10:01

satisfied and inner peace In

10:04

life . We reach where our behavior and

10:08

our stance towards things in situations go

10:11

To conclude the story . I Keep that

10:13

in mind . To conclude the story I was told in relation

10:15

to my friend , I have to say that we finally worked

10:17

on the recognition of self-sabotage

10:19

and through this , we achieved not just improvement

10:22

of sleep , but overall improvement

10:24

in many different aspects of his life . This change

10:27

gave him energy and will

10:30

to be able to pursue , obviously , other goals

10:32

which he had left behind . Remember

10:36

, every day is a new opportunity . Don't

10:38

let it pass unimpeded . Act

10:41

now and watch the changes happen in your life

10:43

in a beautiful , wonderful way

10:45

. The

10:50

third factor that might cut your access to the opportunities

10:52

that exist out there is

10:56

the fear of failure . The

10:58

main difference between the previous two factors

11:00

is that in this case , you recognize the

11:02

opportunity you have in front of you , but

11:05

because of the fear maybe something

11:07

goes wrong , you start to build up the

11:09

opportunity . You can say things like maybe

11:11

now is not the right time , I'll

11:13

wait , I'll do it , but not now . You

11:17

start to understand yourself when you say such things or similar

11:19

things , literally

11:22

catch him in the green by asking

11:24

the question what is it that you are afraid

11:27

of ? It

11:44

is possible for him to answer . I am not afraid

11:46

of to let this opportunity be taken advantage

11:49

of to pass . Such internal dialogues

11:51

bring

11:53

to light important truths , truths that are necessary

11:56

to understand in order to leave behind situations

11:58

that displease you , in order

12:01

to transform your life for the better

12:03

. The key is to demystify the

12:06

fear that prevents you from taking steps forward

12:08

. Such fears

12:12

look like monsters of our childhood . They

12:15

seem like something it is really so scary to take action and

12:17

to fail . Will your health be affected ? Your safety , what will

12:19

happen ? Will

12:33

the future be destroyed if you fail ? If

12:36

nothing happens , then you will certainly grow in fear . Recognize

12:38

it . Recognize

12:42

the conditions you create in

12:44

yourself . You create them . The

12:48

question is to create favorable conditions . The

12:50

fact that you have chosen to listen to me at this moment

12:52

is an opportunity to start

12:54

operating differently from here to the next . The

12:57

fear of failure often keeps us bound in a comfort

12:59

zone that

13:03

is not only comfort . It does not

13:05

allow us to develop . Instead

13:08

of seeing failure as something negative , enter

13:25

it as a very good learning experience

13:27

. Thank you , an exercise that will help you

13:29

overcome the fear of failure . So go to

13:31

YouTube , put my name , konstantinos Haradiniotis

13:34

, and you will find my channel , if you haven't followed it yet and

13:36

find the video titled Learn

13:39

how to handle failure . I believe

13:41

it will help you a lot . Life

13:45

is a continuous process of learning and evolution . The

13:48

fear of failure is just a barrier that

13:58

can be overcome with the right mindset and

14:00

the right energy . Thank you , and the recognition of

14:03

failures as opportunities , and today I begin the journey towards

14:06

the achievement of your dreams and

14:13

the fulfillment of your desires . At

14:20

the beginning of the episode , I encouraged you to bring to

14:22

your mind something you want

14:24

to achieve , to change , to create which

14:27

you have not yet achieved . If you brought something

14:29

to your mind , then , listening to me

14:32

up to this point , you have definitely

14:34

found out what you need to work on in order

14:36

to move forward with your quest . I

14:40

will now share with you an exercise that

14:42

can help you move towards your goal better . You

14:45

can do it now , right now , or , if it's not the right

14:47

time , return to this episode to do it later . The

14:51

exercise is to aim and answer directly . This is important

14:53

to

14:57

the six questions . First question what

15:00

motivates your behavior ? To recognize how

15:02

it prevents me at this moment from

15:04

becoming available to opportunities

15:07

and to move forward with my demand

15:09

. Second question

15:11

what do I really have the opportunity to do ? Ευκαιρίες και να προχωρήσω

15:13

με το ζητούμενό μου ? Δεύτερη ερώτηση Τι έχω πραγματικά την ευκαιρία να κάνω άμεσα σε

15:15

σχέση με το ζητούμενό μου ? Τρίτη

15:17

ερώτηση Τι θα λέω στον εαυτό

15:20

μου για να τον ενεργοποιώ

15:22

, να αναλάβει δράση ? A motto

15:24

that has the power , like a torch , to bring

15:27

your mind back to the right course

15:29

. This

15:33

phrase must indicate what you want to become

15:35

, not what you don't want . It

15:39

is an important component of having positive attitude

15:41

to the language . For example

15:43

, instead of saying I want to not stick

15:46

, say I want to move on . Dedicate

15:50

thought to how you will construct this phrase and write it everywhere

15:52

. Stick it to your office , to

15:54

your fridge , to your mirror . Repeat

15:57

it to yourself every day , because in this way , your

15:59

mind will start to receive a positive and

16:01

beneficial response and

16:03

through this , you will obviously be led to positive

16:06

changes . Think about

16:08

how many things you say to yourself , and because

16:10

you say them continuously , your

16:12

life becomes your reality . You

16:15

can create a better reality by saying the right things . My

16:20

book also , non-tropeia , has

16:23

this logic . It is made for

16:25

this exact reason to help you to synthesize

16:27

a positive word , a

16:29

positive definition for some things that are worth

16:32

, so that they become your

16:34

life . This exercise has been designed

16:36

to help you to gain clarity and to

16:38

create a strong motivation for action , recognize

16:41

the motives of behavior that keep you back , decide

16:45

the immediate actions you can do and set a

16:47

positive message

16:49

that will guide you . Remember

16:52

change starts will guide you . Remember change starts

16:55

from within and the words

16:57

you use have great power . Work

17:00

with this exercise and watch how these

17:02

small changes can

17:04

lead to great results . Daily reminding

17:08

your goals through statements or

17:10

to themselves , as I say , can

17:17

reform the way you think and lead you to a course of continuous

17:19

improvement and success . Don't

17:21

put up with anything else . Every

17:24

moment is a new opportunity

17:27

to become a better version of yourself , so start

17:29

. Today

17:48

is the perfect day to start . Thank you . The

17:50

best time to listen

17:52

to me is when you want inspiration and peace

17:54

. Follow me to get notified for the

17:56

next episode . Until

17:58

the next episode , be careful how you

18:01

think your mind . It

18:03

can go wherever you ask it

18:08

. Bye .
