  Podcasthero.com. Welcome to The Daily Quote, the

  podcast designed to kick start your day in a positive way.

  I'm host Anna Mcgeburn and let's dive into today's quote from
• 0:13
  Willie Nelson, the legendary country music icon who's LED 9
• 0:17
  decades and learned a thing or two about resilience.
• 0:22
  He once said once you replace negative thoughts with positive
• 0:26
  ones, you'll start having positive results.
• 0:30
  This sounds simple. Maybe too simple.
• 0:34
  But Willie Nelson has survived bankruptcy, the IRS using
• 0:39
  everything he owned, multiple divorces, and the brutal ups and
• 0:42
  downs of the music industry. He's not selling empty optimism.
• 0:48
  He's sharing what works. Here's the keyword though.
• 0:52
  Replace. Not ignore.
• 0:55
  Not suppress. Replace.
• 0:58
  You can't just stop thinking negatively.
• 1:00
  That's like trying not to think about a pink elephant.
• 1:03
  The harder you try, the more it shows up.
• 1:06
  But you can replace negative thoughts with positive ones, and
• 1:10
  when you do, something shifts. Negative thoughts create
• 1:14
  negative expectations. I'm going to fail leads to why
• 1:19
  bother trying, which leads to not trying, which guarantees
• 1:24
  failure. Positive thoughts create
• 1:26
  positive expectations. I can figure this out, which
• 1:30
  leads to let me try this other approach, which leads to action,
• 1:35
  which creates the possibility of success.
• 1:38
  It's not magic, it's mechanics. Your thoughts shape your
• 1:41
  beliefs. Your beliefs shape your actions.
• 1:44
  Your actions create your results.
• 1:48
  Change the thought at the top and everything downstream
• 1:53
  changes with it. Willie's not saying think
• 1:56
  positive and money appears. He's saying think positive and
• 2:00
  you start taking the actions that lead to positive results.
• 2:03
  The results don't come from the thoughts, they come from what
• 2:06
  the thoughts inspire you to do. So here's the question.
• 2:11
  What negative thoughts is running on the loop in your head
• 2:14
  right now? And what positive thought could
• 2:18
  you replace it with? Because Willie's right, replace
• 2:22
  the thought and we'll start to see different results.
• 2:26
  That's it for today. I'm Andrew McGivern, signing off
• 2:28
  for now, but I'll be back tomorrow.
