"Change require discipline" not motivation. Spot on!!

I decided not to chase the people who rejected me at 30. Best decision ever

For the first time in months I didn't hit the snooze button this morning. I don't want to break promises to myself anymore.

I've started setting my alarm 15 minutes early so that I can lay in bed and start my morning with Mel. It's not snoozing, it's me time.😁

Hey Mel, you are magic, I am 54 years old, and I will be starting my life today ! Love you 🩷

I had been procrastinating on a project for work. After watching your video, I GOT IT DONE. I feel accomplished. I realized that all I have to do is get started. Once I have the momentum, I usually continue until it is completed. Thank you!

Bravo 😅

I’m going to guess that one of the tips is not watching YT 18 hrs/day. I’m not ready for that kind of break-up.

Then don't start by making things easy at first you can do 17 hrs and 45 mins then after a while keep decreasing 15 minutes at a time

I can make and keep a promise to anyone but myself 😔 and that needs to change

Where can I get my own pair of pink Mel pajamas? 😂😂. Don’t worry, I am listening. In fact, I have been binging Mel Robbins for two weeks. Mel, you are a gift. Thanks for what you do, it’s inspirational. ❤

I’ve been binging for last couple of weeks too! it has really helped my mind and digging myself out of a hole . Hope it’s helping you too 🙂

About the difficulty of starting. It's like using a handsaw to cut a piece of wood. The saw slips and slides around, barely making a cut. But once that first initial cut is started, the saw blade begins to carve and cut its way through the wood with relative ease.

Great analogy!

You look great. Don't let idiots bring you down. They WANT to bring you down. 🎉🎉🎉

You inspire me Mel, you talk directly to my heart. Love and respect from Athens, Greece.

That last one with the lady who had a brain injury was so powerful. I tend to look at the rear view mirror, too. Thank you, Mel!

So agree with you Mel - if we “ waited for the right time” it would probably never happen 🤣💕💕

the conversation with the last lady with brain injury made me cry! went through a life altering event myself. When she said " you know it's like I died back there" I could feel her. Thanks Mel, what you made her repeat yourself is what I will tell myself as well.

❤ yes 🙌 every time we fail to honour our word to ourselves, we diminish our faith in ourselves and lower our self worth simultaneously and the cycle 🔁 continues

I owe my life to you Mel . Thanks for pushing me to do, IT Just do it

This is so powerful Mel. I am a Mom and feel like I lack purpose. I've just been needed as a Mom and starting to feel I am no longer needed since both my boys are grown. My husband doesn't "need" me either. I am stuck.

Do all the things you never thought you could because you were a mom or wife, etc., whatever the reason you thought. I left 2 abusive relationships of 13y and 5y... and literally got accepted and enrolled in graduate school for my LMSW while at a domestic violence shelter in 2011! I had 5 children at the time ages 1y to 17y. If I can get unstuck from that, anyone can! I also got my dog I always wanted and she had brought so much joy to my life. So for me getting unstuck was getting my education and my Weimaraner, Penny. Figure out the things you stopped doing that made you... you. And also the things you always wanted to do but thought you couldn't because of all the excuses or legitimately because of your children or marriage and go do that. Even if it's one little thing that brings you joy, like sitting in a book store for as long as you like and having a warm pastry and tea. Find your joy! It's out there and it's inside of you! Blessing ls to you! ❤

Blessings from Texas. First 40 seconds....keep your promise to yourself and get up with alarm. I NEEDED this! I need to start keeping my promises I have made to myself and showing up for myself. Bless you ❤️

I divorced my lying, cheating husband at age 44. Best decision ever.

Well good for you, did you find proof of all his deceiving ways in the marriage?

Hi Mel, I went to a new coffee shop in Marietta Ga last week called Marietta perks, and what did I see. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Your name on the wall !! The best motivational speaker, pod caster ever.There wer other names but for me, yours stood out especially when I yelled look everyone ,Mel Robbins name is up on the wall. 🙌🏻Lol Love you girl. 🥰

The BEST way to BE SURE to get out of bed in the morning, the second the alarm goes off, is to get a DOG 🐶 😂 Mine never lets me sleep after the first beep 😅 😖🤣

All I can say is WOW! You are incredible.

Thanks for delivering your messages in such a relatable method. You talking about "real life" issues and uncomplicated ways to improve life are so inspiring.

I have been living in my bed a lot, but it just prolongs the inevitable.

I really appreciate this podcast I love you Mel. I needed the 5 sec rule to get out of my car for work because I couldn't turn you off.😅bt I did it then snuck in the bathroom to finish listening to you show Thank you so Much

Great information! What are the 12 habits?

Hello from India!!! Thank you for these amazing inspirational videos!!

I just now found your videos. I like the way you explain things & give examples. I'm living & loving life. ❤️

Discipline yourself to make a new you...Thank you Madam Mel for sharing your inspiration video to us..God bless you always🥰

I think for most of us, we have the time, we have the dreams but what we lack is the money. I'm sure I could fulfil all my dreams if I could quit my job because I had enough money to do so. 😢

I just wanted to say thank you so much you have been helping me so many ways. I just feel like I still don’t know what to do as my first step. Kind of feel like I’m my hands are tied. I’m waiting on disability check I’m with a husband that I don’t like I’m happy with, and my life just feels like it’s crumbling.

It is fascinating and motivating to always hear who you are from the past, and to see what you become now❤️

Thank you again,you have help me change so much, you are amazing xxxxx❤❤❤❤❤

Will you take us on a video tour of your home? It looks beautiful!

This video really came at the perfect time! There is a lot of hard truths in it that I didn't want to face. I've been affected post Covid, where as a result of the vaccines/Covid, I now have Long Covid, POTS and nerve damage. I was unable to do much for myself or my family. Being bedridden, I lost my job, my ability to do a lot of things and myself. I've slowly learned to adapt but hadn't actually accepted that it happened. Now that I have some guidance, I can now apply this to my life in order to move forward again. Thank you for sharing these videos. Your wisdom is very much appreciated! May love and good health surround you always ❤

I LOVE ALL YOUR VIDEOS MEL.

Thank you my friend 🤜🤛💞🌹🙏

My passion is painting and colors My purpose is to spread my art and the happiness of colors to the world

Well-said. Trusting myself. Integrity with myself. Thanks.

Thank you Mel. You're amazing!

Thank you Mel

Yes that woman in the mirror needs your love be your own best friend who knows you better?❤

Amen!

Learning the critical truth that I am my own best friend or worst enemy helped me embrace this project of self-love along with doing a lot of Shadow work via hypnosis and the firm decision to never go back to that b******* self-loathing person again... Has actually worked for me I noticed this morning when I hired by myself in the mirror I truly love the person I see there now I truly love myself! What an incomparable gift... An absolute literal life changer❤

Thank you.

Awesome Mel. Thank you!!!

Mel you are so inspiring! ❤❤❤

That's exactly for me

Truth.

I really like this video. So helpful!!

Thanks for all your videos, Mel, and kudos for spelling Mihály Csíkszentmihályi perfectly:))) All the best form Hungary:)

I love you Mel, you're the besttttt !!!!!!! Sending love all the way from India ❤️

Sounds like passion is easier to generate than purpose...

Thank you! Loved what you said about passion and purpose! ...Also loved the conversation about "looking ahead" for brain injured woman...applied a lot to my life. Thanks!

Now I love your 54321 it works I have been very depressed I have laid in bed for 6 years cuz I didn't feel good cuz I had a thyroid problem that nobody could find they didn't never did the right test for it so I came across to you on Alex's show and ever since I've been making myself do the 54321 and it really works thank you for helping me wake up you are loved❤❤

Spot on re DISCIPLINE❣️ BTW Mel, you are gorgeous without make-up!

I will trust you're lood 🎉 Beautifully moving my Dreme the USA 🏫 thank you 🙏

Thanks, Mel. I needed this. I've been feeling "stuck" and on auto-pilot and I've picked up some habits over the pandemic that I cannot seem to shake. I've been watching somw YT to get inspired on changing in the New Year, and you are EXACTLY what I needed. I appreciate your wisdom and experience. Thanks for sharing your passion and purpose with us all ⭐️

Gosh lady! I just like how you teach. It clicks in my brain. Thank you Mel, from the bottom of my heart, for being so real, for making these things that are so hard, something that is doable for people.

Great stuff. This is the same thing as jumping off a high dive. The fact is that modern life sucks to the point that we have to trick ourselves to get out of bed. Success is a snowball effect though. Either get started adapting or get started dying. Those are the options.

Hi Mel I have taken your advice and I have enrolled on a reflexology course. You are amazing and I love your you tube videos ❤️

I love this and have been applying the 5 sec rule to my life. TY! AND for those of us with ADHD / who are neurodivergent, the following has been helpful for me 1) extrinsic motivation: I think we need expanded definition and examples of it. Personally, I am finding in order for me to SUCCESSFULLY shift a behavior or mind pattern, I NEED a positive extrinsic motivation like: having client sessions or group trainings - something I need to show up for with others - for accountability and that I enjoy to motivate me. And/or creating an external environment cues (see both I Have ADHD podcast and How to ADHD youtube channel for more) that increases motivation - like recently I’m implementing I’m doing work sessions at library 10am during weekdays with FUN built in - set timer and every hour I take a break and have a dance/ stretch / walk break outside. Also coworking zoom sessions with fellow artist entrepreneurs. 2) Intrinsic motivation - personally I also was feeling frustrated as I hadnt been shifting some habits that were not serving me and beating myself up wasn’t helping and I was just struggling to get into action to work on my biz at home alone no matter what I was doing. I’m finding I need to get curious and better know my WHY I’m choosing that negative habit, and WHaT does my nervous system / inner child / subconscious NEED that this habit is serving. In order to shift it and replace it with a new habit and with action. I will just distract or numb myself and eventually return without this why. After the pause, which 5 sec rule really helps with, AND awareness if what need am I filling with this distraction? Then I move to how can I meet that need in a healthier way? I need to be connected to the deeper why in order to shift this at a subconscious level. Just sharing in case this resonates with others. I will be sharing more on my IG AT ericaignite if u want to follow along with my journey 😊

I also just want to say if u have ADHD or other nuerodivergency you have HIGH shame and LOW control of executive functioning and prefrontal cortex… so for me not to continue to perpetuate shame spiral then thought loops then choosing habits that aren’t serving me, its been CRITICAL for me to judge less my habits and get more curious around the deeper why and find solutions that work for me and my brain and my creative, artistic, social self. ❤

Habits are choices on default. I learned this being a Taoist.

Mel if i watch you everyday... This will be a busy life😂

Where have u been all my life😂❤😊🤗

I have been getting up and doing alote.

I agree… though not easy, PUSHING myself to do something as simple as making the bed when I get up (even though no one else will know!!), I know how it makes me feel deep inside when I’m passing I see my bed made up OR ~ when it isn’t! Now THAT feeling when it’s undone, makes me feel really bad about myself. This morning I almost didn’t make my bed (because it was a rough night and I’m tired ~ I told myself!). But then… I thought about my promise to myself that though I am home, I would be sure to make my bed EVERY WEEKDAY (giving myself a weekend pass~ if need be🙄). So, I got up and made it! I’ve also made a point over the last several months when feeling overwhelmed or depressed to actually timed myself at an activity that I plan to put off such as making my bed. And really the amount of time that it takes to do that or to wash the dinner dishes before bed or something of that sort really takes only a matter of minutes. And so that’s what I try to remind myself just three minutes for this… You can do it; just five minutes for that… You can do it! JUST DOING IT really does ease THAT stress. Thanks Mel, for all the time you put in to helping others manage the little everyday matters!

Mel, please get more sleep. Love you X. 🎇☮️🎆🏵️🌠

When your a singer or a sport pro then you can’t afford to be tired that’s for sure - the nights I get to sleep later because of insomnia or whatever I can’t get up when the alarm rings if I do I can’t perform with up to 30min less sleep it affects all
