Today we explore a great insight from Jim Rohn who reminds us that if we want tomorrow be different then we will need to start doing different things. It is so easy to drift along in life and before we know years have vanished. Today it's time to be reminded how the small actions we change can change the big details in our lives over time..

Speaker:

Hey everybody.

Speaker:

Jonathan Doyle with you again, welcome back to today's daily message.

Speaker:

Please make sure you have subscribed to this humble little

Speaker:

channel we're starting from small.

Speaker:

We're going to go big and you're helping subscribing would be great.

Speaker:

You know, there's a, there's a few key people.

Speaker:

I subscribe.

Speaker:

And I've just gotten these habits of I'll drop one of the kids at school and I'll

Speaker:

be driving and I'll just get listening to their stuff for five or 10 minutes.

Speaker:

So please hit subscribe so I can bring you these each day and

Speaker:

also give you a free access to my original book, bridging the gap.

Speaker:

It's in a PDF format.

Speaker:

Hit the link down here below.

Speaker:

Grab yourself a free copy.

Speaker:

And I'm going to send you a little PDF chapter every day, every two days for.

Speaker:

You're going to love it.

Speaker:

Really simple, short chapters going to give you some great ideas.

Speaker:

All right, today, we're going to jump into a big quote from

Speaker:

the one, the only Jim Roan.

Speaker:

Now, if you're not familiar with Jim Ryan, he was one of the

Speaker:

absolute giants, the fathers, the, the, of the personal development

Speaker:

movement of the mid 20th century.

Speaker:

He was the guy that Tony Robbins worked for.

Speaker:

Tony Robbins started his career working for Jim Rohn and Jim

Speaker:

Rome was his mentor and teacher.

Speaker:

And you probably heard of Tony Robbins and he's done a little bit of stuff.

Speaker:

So do you mind someone you can take to the bank?

Speaker:

You can bank Jim Roan.

Speaker:

So let's jump into the quote for the day.

Speaker:

If you don't change what you are doing today, all of your

Speaker:

tomorrows will look like yesterday.

Speaker:

All right.

Speaker:

Where do we start with this?

Speaker:

This is based on the principle two principles that I like to

Speaker:

teach when I'm doing live events.

Speaker:

First is homeostasis.

Speaker:

And the second principle is what I call the second law of Thermo dynamics.

Speaker:

So let's talk about these first one.

Speaker:

Homeostasis homeostasis is the principle by which something

Speaker:

maintains and regulates a baseline of.

Speaker:

So, for example, in your body right now, your brain, your central nervous

Speaker:

system, your limbic system, your pituitary gland is regulating a whole

Speaker:

bunch of processes in your body, right?

Speaker:

Blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation.

Speaker:

You are not, I mean, seriously, right?

Speaker:

Have you noticed that.

Speaker:

Do your heart rate that you don't control that?

Speaker:

Like you don't go and go, keep eating, keep eating, keep eating.

Speaker:

It happens for you because your, your central nervous system is keeping

Speaker:

your body in a place of what we call homeostasis, baseline functioning.

Speaker:

So for example, if you get run up a set of stairs, heart rate goes up.

Speaker:

Hormone level shift, fractionally, blood pressure changes,

Speaker:

oxygen saturations change.

Speaker:

When you've got to the top of the stairs and you recover, you'll notice that

Speaker:

your heart rate comes back to normal.

Speaker:

Your breathing patterns come back to norm, or you didn't do that right.

Speaker:

Your body naturally does it.

Speaker:

Now, what this means is that left to ourselves.

Speaker:

We are constantly trying to.

Speaker:

A flat line of flat line, not a flat line of a heart rate,

Speaker:

but a flat line of functioning.

Speaker:

We're trying to always stay in a safe, comfortable, narrow band

Speaker:

with things are just operating in.

Speaker:

There's no big issues.

Speaker:

So the first thing we're pushing against in the personal development

Speaker:

space, the human growth space, the mindset space is that we've evolved for

Speaker:

simplicity and comfort and survival.

Speaker:

So the first thing Jim Rohn's telling us is that we've got

Speaker:

to push against homeostasis.

Speaker:

If we don't do something slightly different to change our reality,

Speaker:

that our reality is either going to stay the same or, and now I'm going

Speaker:

to introduce the second principle.

Speaker:

It'll get worse.

Speaker:

Second law of thermodynamics is a principle in physics that energy will

Speaker:

move from a hottest state to a colder state in the absence of any other inputs.

Speaker:

So think of the sun, right?

Speaker:

Like our son at the moment is actually heading towards implosion.

Speaker:

That's not going to happen for, I think about another Experian years,

Speaker:

maybe 4 billion years, but the sun is slowly going from a hot mess.

Speaker:

And then usually when we get a supernova, they expand as they're dying.

Speaker:

And then eventually they, um, collapse, you know, and basically fall into, uh, a

Speaker:

tiny, dense mess and they cease to exist.

Speaker:

As we know.

Speaker:

So you can see that energy is moving to a, from a hottest state to a coolest

Speaker:

state and eventually transferring into another form of existence.

Speaker:

It's deep.

Speaker:

Isn't it?

Speaker:

What this means again, in the personal development space is that if we're not

Speaker:

adding fresh inputs of energy thinking experience, we'll slowly move from

Speaker:

where we are not to staying where we are, but usually to a worst place.

Speaker:

Often we think that, you know, when we're stuck, that

Speaker:

something will change eventually.

Speaker:

Um, I'm not a big believer in that.

Speaker:

I think sometimes we need to really put in fresh inputs, put in fresh

Speaker:

inputs of energy, creativity effort.

Speaker:

So.

Speaker:

What I want to suggest to you today is to look into your life and ask yourself, are

Speaker:

you stuck in homeostasis or even worse?

Speaker:

A victim of the second law of thermodynamics?

Speaker:

Are you basically moving from a good place or an average place to a worse place?

Speaker:

All of this tells us that if we want an uncommon life, if you want things

Speaker:

to be better, if you want things to be.

Speaker:

So what Jim Ryan says, right?

Speaker:

You got to do different things.

Speaker:

You've got to do different things.

Speaker:

If you do tomorrow.

Speaker:

Exactly the same things that you did today.

Speaker:

You're going to get today's results.

Speaker:

If you eat the same things, if you do the same amount or no exercise, if you

Speaker:

don't read good stuff, if you don't join a new club, if you don't try something

Speaker:

different, if you don't do a little bit of extra reading or work, then you're

Speaker:

not just going to stay where you are.

Speaker:

You're going to slowly get worse.

Speaker:

So, what does that look like for you?

Speaker:

It might mean that you do a little bit more exercise tomorrow that you send

Speaker:

one person, an extra encouraging text that you just keep doing little things.

Speaker:

Now, sometimes, you know, in another episode we could talk about, there

Speaker:

are times when we need to do massive things, big changes, but I think

Speaker:

for today, if you just agree that if you keep doing exactly what you're

Speaker:

doing today, you're likely to not say where you are, but go fractionally.

Speaker:

There were some habits we have that we can just do the same

Speaker:

every day that had been official.

Speaker:

So exercise being positive in relationships, but even

Speaker:

then we can still improve.

Speaker:

Right?

Speaker:

We can still get better.

Speaker:

We can still do new stuff.

Speaker:

So look in your life.

Speaker:

Are you stuck?

Speaker:

Are you doing the same things every day?

Speaker:

Try something different regarding read a book like atomic habits.

Speaker:

Go read that book.

Speaker:

Get the audio version.

Speaker:

Atomic habits.

Speaker:

Can't remember the guy's name.

Speaker:

It's a great book.

Speaker:

Change something, change something, change something.

Speaker:

Doesn't fall out of the sky.

Speaker:

We got to do it.

Speaker:

All right.

Speaker:

That's it for me today.
