As humans, we often think that there is a "right way" to feel—for both ourselves and for others. But judging ourselves and others is a painful way to live. It is heavy. And it adds to your stress and discomfort. But you can set it all of it down. In this podcast, I offer that the alternative to judgment is meekness. When we view ourselves, and others, and God from a place of meekness we can drop our need to control everything around us and access peace. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com/48

It’s easy to use our flaws and mistakes as a way to punish ourselves into growth and change. We have lists of all the things we want to remove or eliminate in ourselves—thinking if we cut all these parts out of us, we can change into a better version of us. But it doesn’t work. Self-destruction does not create. Instead of wanting to become less, the key is to focus on becoming more of who and what we already are. This is change through love and abundance. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com

Love isn’t magic or destiny. Love doesn’t come and go by itself. Love isn’t a result of the actions of another. It doesn’t move from one person to another. Love can’t even be shared. Love isn’t a result of anything outside of us—it is always a result of a thought inside of us. Learn how to identify the thoughts keeping you from feeling love. You are responsible for how much love you feel, which gives you access to the unlimited supply of love any time you want. https://www.aprilpriceco

Whenever we go after a goal and spend energy growing and evolving, our brain wants us to stop. So it offers us limiting thoughts about our progress, our identity, our capacity, our limitations, and our decisions—and these thoughts keep us from achieving our goals. In this episode, Susan Dangerfield talks about common thoughts that keep us stuck and how to get around our brain’s objections so that we can achieve exactly what we want. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com/39 https://www.sdangerfit.co

In this very special episode of the podcast I interview author, Rachel Stewart, about how to turn our beliefs into reality by taking action, even in the face of self-doubt or fear. I talk to Rachel about how we don't have to feel "qualified" or ready to start taking action, how to recognize that fear is both a liar and a necessary companion to any achievement, and why it's always worth doing hard things to get what we want. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com/38 http://unqualifiedtools.com

In order to accomplish what we want in our lives, we have to believe we can. All our results start with our beliefs. But our brains are programmed to notice the negative and use that information to define our present and create our future. To get different results, we need to interrupt our brain's "prediction machinery" and think new thoughts. So how do we do this? Here are three keys to believing new things about yourself, your abilities, and your life. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com/3

We sometimes forget that we are always making a choice. These choices add up to create the life we have, even if we don't realize it. I invite you to honestly examine the idea that we only do what we want to do. This perspective shows us that there aren't actually any "have to's" in our life, and that everything we do is our choice—allowing us to give up blame and resentment, own our choices and our outcomes, reach our goals, and love the life we are living. www.aprilpricecoaching.com/36

We all have goals and things we want to accomplish in our lives. But sometimes the way we've been taught to think about goals is actually getting in our way, making accomplishing and achieving our goals harder. I invite you to rethink how you set goals by understanding we don't become better when we achieve goals, achieving our goals won't make us happy, our goals should be hard, and when it comes to goals, what we think is more important than what we do. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com/35

We spend most of our lives just thinking on default. We have lots of old, unexamined thought habits. A thought habit is just a thought we have thought over and over again creating a well-rehearsed neural pathway. But the brain has the power to create new neural pathways any time. This neuroplasticity allows you to purposefully create productive and positive thought habits, and decide how you want to think about your life…and that, my friends, is 100% awesome! https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com/3...

Because we have human brains, we aren't programmed to notice the magic, miracles, and awesomeness of our lives. But that does not mean they don't exist! To find more joy and awe, we have to purposefully redirect our brains to notice all the gifts that are there, that go mostly unnoticed. Here are three tools that you can use to help you recognize the truth about your awesome life and recalibrate your brain to "see things as they really are." https://www.aprilpricecoaching/30

In life, we interact with people that we think are "difficult." In reality, there are no difficult people. There are just people. Who do stuff. And then we have lots of thoughts about the things they do, and then we make that mean that they are "difficult." One of the most powerful things you can learn is that the only thing that makes other people difficult is our interpretation of them—and knowing this is the solution to every difficult relationship we have. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.com/...

Just like any other characteristic we have, our brain has an opinion about our bodies.

Most of us think we are supposed to feel good about ourselves. And we think there’s something wrong with us when we don’t. The reality is that our human brains make it so we don’t feel good about ourselves. That's what it means to be human. And we don’t have to fix that. The awesome news is that you can consciously and purposefully redirect your mind to allow you to approve of yourself anyway...even when your lower brain insists that you have problems. https://www.aprilpricecoaching.c

Our brains are naturally programmed to avoid discomfort. This has kept us alive and allowed us to make huge advances throughout history. But when it comes to personal development, being willing to experience discomfort can allow us to grow, leave and our comfort zone, do things we've never done, and reach impossible goals. Learn about optional discomfort—and why you might want to do hard things to get different results and discover completely new possibilities. www.aprilpricecoaching.com/2

We often feel like we are just at the effect of our life. But the truth is that how we feel and the life experience we are having is entirely up to us. The key to taking control of your life experience and creating what you want is to recognize where your control really is. It is never outside of you. You have the power to create the life you want by focusing your attention inside of you—on the thoughts you choose to think. www.aprilpricecoaching.com/25

We all have a plan for our life. We all have an idea of the way it's supposed to go. And then nothing goes according to plan. When we think "This isn't the way it's supposed to be," we resist reality and this adds anger, frustration, and resentment to our challenges. We end up doubling our pain. In this episode I share three thoughts to help you escape the resentment and anger you feel when things go wrong, so you can learn and grow and move on in your life. www.aprilpricecoaching.com/24

Other people get to think and feel and act like they want. They have agency to choose how they are going to live their life. The trouble is that we think what other people do or say then causes us suffering. The reality is that no one can make you feel anything. And no matter what other people choose to do or say, you always get to decide how you want to think about it. You always have the power to create your own life experience.

When the people in our lives are suffering, we want to fix things. We want to control their experiences, change their circumstances, and help them find different thoughts and feelings so they can feel better. But while this may feel compassionate, it isn't. And it doesn't allow us to access the power of divine love. Learn new ways to think about the suffering of others, and find compassion and peace and love without needing to change other people's models. www.aprilpricecoaching.com/22

Our brains notice problems in order to ensure our survival. So they are always on the lookout for all the ways we don't have enough—sometimes all we can see is our lack and deficiency. It turns out that lack and deficiency in any area of our lives is only a thought. We just happen to think these thoughts are true! The truth is our lives are full of abundance and it can change everything when we finally see that what we are and what we have is "enough and to spare." www.aprilpricecoaching.com
