Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The pen that wrote your limiting story is the same
pen that can write your liberation, and that is the
thought for today. Welcome to Seven Good Minutes. I'm Clyde
Lee Dennis. Thanks for joining me for what I believe

(00:22):
will be seven of the most enriching minutes of your day.
In today's episode of Seven Good Minutes, we talk about
rewriting your inner story and transforming your life. Enjoy The
stories we tell ourselves shape everything. They determine how we
see our past, interpret our present, and imagine our future.
But here's what most people don't realize. You're not stuck

(00:44):
with the narrative that's been running in your head. You
have the power to reset it, rewrite it, and transform
your entire experience of life. By the end of this episode,
you'll understand how to identify the limiting stories you've been carrying,
why they no longer serve you, and most importantly, how
to consciously craft a new narrative that empowers rather than imprisons. You.

(01:08):
Think about the story you've been telling yourself about who
you are. Maybe it's that you're not good enough, that
success isn't meant for you, or that you always mess
things up. These stories feel so real, so permanent, But
they are actually just thoughts. You've repeated so many times
they've become your truth. The beautiful thing is, if you
created these stories, you can recreate them. Your inner narrative

(01:31):
isn't based on facts, It's based on interpretations. Two people
can experience the exact same event and walk away with
completely different stories about what it means. One person loses
a job and thinks I'm a failure. Another person loses
the same job and thinks this is redirecting me towards
something better. Same event, different story, completely different life trajectory.

(01:58):
The stories that limit us usually formed during moments of pain, disappointment,
or fear. A child who gets laughed at for singing
might create the story I'm not talented. A teenager who
gets rejected might decide I'm not lovable. An adult who
fails at a business venture might conclude I'm not cut
out for success. These stories were protective mechanisms at the time,

(02:21):
but they often outlive their usefulness and become prisons. Here's
the profound truth. You are not your story. You are
the author of your story, and authors have the power
to edit, revise, and completely rewrite their work. The question
isn't whether you can change your story, but whether you're
willing to pick up the pen. Start by becoming aware

(02:43):
of the stories you're currently telling yourself. Listen to your
inner dialogue. Notice the themes that repeat. Pay attention to
the words you use when you describe yourself, your capabilities,
and your future. Are these stories empowering you or limiting you?
Are they based on who you were or who you're becoming.

(03:03):
Once you identify a limiting story, you can begin to
question it is this story absolutely true? What evidence contradicts it?
How has this story served you? And how is it
now holding you back? What would be possible if you
no longer believed this story? Then comes the beautiful part,
consciously crafting your new narrative. This isn't about lying to

(03:26):
yourself or creating fantasy. It's about choosing to focus on
the aspects of your experience that empower growth rather than
those that reinforce limitation. It's about interpreting your past as
preparation rather than punishment, seeing your challenges as character building
rather than character defining. Your new story should honor your

(03:46):
journey while opening doors to your potential instead of I
always struggle with money try. I'm learning to create financial
abundance instead of I'm bad at relationships. Consider I'm growing
in my capacity to love and be loved instead of
I never follow through explore. I'm developing consistency and commitment.

(04:09):
The key is to make your new story believable to
you right now. If the gap between your current story
and your desired story is too wide, your mind will
reject it. Build bridges, create stepping stones. Let your new
narrative be aspirational but achievable. Remember, changing your story isn't
a one time event. It's an ongoing practice. Your old

(04:31):
stories have momentum. They'll try to reassert themselves, especially during
challenging times. This is normal. Simply notice when the old
narrative surfaces, acknowledge it with compassion, and gently redirect your
attention to your new story. The story you tell yourself
becomes the life you live. When you reset that story,

(04:53):
you reset your possibilities. You're not editing your past, You're
authoring your future, and that future is waiting for the
story only you can write. That does it. For today's
