  Dot com. Welcome to the Daily quote, the
• 0:06
  podcast designed to kick start your day in a positive way.
• 0:11
  I'm your host, Anna McGivern, and this episode is brought to
• 0:14
  you by the great News Podcast. Why should you listen?
• 0:18
  Because good news should be heard available where all great
• 0:21
  podcasts are found. And I've also left a link in the
• 0:24
  show notes. Today's quote comes from an
• 0:27
  unknown author, representing the kind of ancient wisdom that
• 0:31
  travels across centuries without a name attached to it.
• 0:36
  The quote is the secret to having it all is knowing you
• 0:41
  already do. This hits on a radical idea.
• 0:46
  The mechanism of fulfillment isn't out there in our
• 0:49
  circumstances, but in here in how you choose to feel right
• 0:54
  now. Most of us spend our lives
• 0:57
  waiting for the right moment or the right level of readiness to
• 1:01
  feel satisfied, telling ourselves that happiness begins
• 1:05
  only when the situation improves, or when we have more
• 1:09
  money or more confidence. But as we've explored before,
• 1:15
  the quality of our life equals the quality of our emotions, and
• 1:19
  we often have far more control over those emotions than we
• 1:23
  typically exercise. If you are constantly wishing
• 1:28
  for your life to be different, you are spending the same mental
• 1:32
  and emotional energy that could be used for appreciating your
• 1:36
  current reality. Wishing is not free.
• 1:40
  It cost you the very energy that could move your life forward.
• 1:44
  Knowing you already have it all is about changing your
• 1:49
  relationship to your current reality, learning to surf the
• 1:53
  waves of your life rather than trying to stop them.
• 1:58
  It's a single shift in how you choose to feel.
• 2:01
  When you decide that you already have what you need, you stop
• 2:05
  unconsciously engineering your own defeat by focusing only on
• 2:09
  what's missing. So here's the question.
• 2:13
  What is the one thing in your life right now that you have
• 2:16
  been dismissing as not enough, but that actually proves you
• 2:21
  already have it all? You don't have to wait 10 years
• 2:24
  for this perspective. It is available to you right now
• 2:28
  if you're willing to reach for it.
• 2:31
  That's going to do it for today. I'm Andrew McGivern, signing off
• 2:34
  for now, but I'll be back tomorrow.
• 2:38
  Same pod time, same pod station with another daily quote.
