- 1:28Speaker 1: it is a choice to turn it into a lifestyle.
- 1:32Speaker 1: So is making the decision to be in a bad mood.

- 1:51Speaker 1: it doesn't mean that I am that guy who's always
- 1:53Speaker 1: in a great mood, but I do make it a
- 1:56Speaker 1: point to share with coworkers and students how important it
- 2:00Speaker 1: is to not invest in the entire process of your
- 2:05Speaker 1: present self and make it darker than what it was
- 2:08Speaker 1: most other days. Winning is a choice. Say it five times.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Start to believe it. When they still don't understand the message,

- 2:53Speaker 1: you're going to win the Super Bowl or Major League
- 2:55Speaker 1: Baseball World Series. Winning could be just a great idea
- 2:59Speaker 1: for the moment. Or taking something that is absolutely negative

- 3:06Speaker 1: you've got bills due, the temperature outside is too hot,
- 3:10Speaker 1: And you're allowing it to poison your mind, body, and soul? Well,
