Speaker 1 (00:00):
Life is waiting for you each day and you have to
prepare for each challenge alongthe way towards success.
It's not simple, but it can bedone.
Welcome to my Common SenseMotivation episodes.
I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.
The day didn't change.
You did.
Let me give you a powerfulexample.

(00:20):
You wake up late, the alarmdidn't go off.
You shoot out of bed and, justlike that, your day fills behind
before it even starts.
Now here's the thing.
You've got two choices.
One you let frustration takeover.
You stomp around the house,snapping at people, complaining
under your breath.
You carry that sour mood rightinto your car.

(00:42):
You're frustrated already andyour day hasn't even really
begun yet.
You keep this attitude in everytask that comes your way.
Or two you pivot.
You smile, you breathe and yousay, all right, let's pivot with
enthusiasm.
That's right.
You own the moment.
You get ready with focus.

(01:03):
You turn the car right into aclassroom.
Maybe throw one of thesepodcasts and listen.
You play some uplifting musicor something that pours life
into your spirit.
And guess what?
Getting up late and runningbehind didn't change, but you
changed.
Your energy showed updifferently.
Your mindset took control.

(01:24):
You turned chaos into calm, notbecause the day was perfect,
but because your attitude waspowerful.
And that's what life is about.
Every single day comes withsurprises, some good and some
wild, but your attitude, that'sthe anchor.
That's the anchor.
See.
Your attitude isn't just howyou feel, it's how you face

(01:46):
what's in front of you.
It's the silent decision thatsays I'm not letting this shake
me up.
It's your weapon, it's yourgift.
Hold that anchor, own themindset, and no matter what
comes.
So next time life throws yourschedule out the window, don't
crumble.
Pivot with purpose.
Pivot't crumble.
Pivot with purpose.
Pivot with power.

(02:06):
Pivot with enthusiasm, Becausethe truth is, the day didn't
change.
You did, and that's what makesall the difference.
Make it happen.
I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.
