In this episode Steve and Jason discuss:The weeds and grass analogy We all need hope and positivity Taking action and doing it now Resources and mindsets useful for reducing stressKey Takeaways: Remember the weeds and grass analogy. Crowd out the negative thinking with hopeful, generative, positive ideas. Think about the possibilities, not only about what is but what could be. We all need hope and positivity, real and honest positivity that acknowledges the reality while still looking out for the possibilities. When’s the best time to plant an oak tree? 25 years ago. When’s the second best time? Today! You might be doing it late, but what’s important is that you’re doing it now. Take action. A daily practice of meditation decreases stress, do it 10 minutes a day. If you think you don’t have 10 minutes, take a deep breath through your nose. When you feel something, don’t try to make it go away. Instead, invite it in and name it because if you can name it, you can tame it.  “The weeds are either gonna crowd out the good grass or the good grass is gonna crowd out the weeds - with our minds, it’s the same exact thing… If the weeds are crowding out the good things, then our actions are gonna be weed-like and the opposite is also true.” - Jason Abell “If we can name it, then we can tame it… What we resist, persists.” - Steve ScanlonBook Mentioned: “Made to Stick: Why Some Ideas Survive and Others Die” by Dan and Chip Heath https://www.amazon.com/Made-Stick-Ideas-Survive-Others/dp/1400064287  Connect with Steve and Jason:LinkedIn: Jason or SteveWebsite: Rewire, Inc.: Transformed Thinking Email: [email protected]  Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
