If You Are Addicted to Certain Behaviors, WATCH THIS! | Mel Robbins Clips

[@sandycollins3613]

I must say that Mel has a Divine gift, I have tried to watch and listen to this man for at least a couple of years, and could never "connect." Mel asked him a couple of questions, explained things differently (brilliantly) and I had to watch the whole podcast. Thank you Mel. BTW I spent 57 of my life suppressing all my feelings and all my needs for the sake of other people's (who never cared about me) peace and their needs! Recently I expressed my anger, stood up for myself to someone who attacked me for no reason at all, but I felt horrible for days! I now clearly see why.

More than a year ago I struggled with certain bad habits and also struggled with implementing good ones..I was a binge drinker, cigar smoker. I had problems with consistency when it came to exercise and getting up early . This was all because I was trying to use willpower and motivation to make a radical change , which then led to an inevitable failure. Then, something remarkable happened and I changed my strategy. It was a remarkable shift in my behavior ; I quit smoking and cigars cold turkey. I started hitting the gym 6 days a week. I started doing OMAD and I also started getting up at 6 am each day.. I was able to make all these changes within such a short period of time. It has been almost 16 months now. I feel like I have become a whole different person as I have been extremely consistent with these changes. It is all because I no longer need willpower or motivation to get up early and hit the gym each day and resist alcohol and smoking.. I have done it through identity shift..

What do you mean by through identityshifts? What changes do you think you actually made to get where you're at? I'm a Marijuana addict. I've never missed a day since I was 15 years old and it's been really rough to stop so jusy looking for some advice

@@Fairygoblin777 Do you use weed morning, noon, and night, or do you just use a little at night?

[@Fairygoblin777]

@labab1048 i use weed about every 1-2 hours, mostly for pain management. I'm working on getting my insurance back to get back on my meds. Ideally I want to be a "social and night time" user, I'm slowly making those steps, I'm just worried that even getting back on my meds isn't gonna be enough for me to stop cold turkey 😅

Mel I cannot tell you enough how much I love you! You have taught me so much through your books and videos.

[@cljones2009]

Many of us were raised to be seen and not heard. We couldn’t be mad. We couldn’t be sad. We had no voice. Just be quiet and don’t bother the adults. Go outside and stay there until the street lights come on and then go to bed. I’m still struggling with voicing my anger and sadness.

You hit the nail on the head! My childhood was EXACTLY the same!

[@staceys173]

Great info! 👍💜

[@amandadavis8855]

Two of my favorites in one place ❤ thank you both ❤

[@leigh7802]

Almost this entire talk just described me in my life. Suddenly, I'm 68 and realize I still relate to these beliefs and behaviors. Thank you for your eye-opening, spot-on assessment to part of "why" I do the things I do. I am here to learn and grow before time... what life I have left escapes me completely. Much respect to you both.💝

[@melrobbins]

I am so glad this video resonated with you, Leigh. YOU are amazing and are capable of SO much xo

[@tanyaboshoff7206]

I feel exactly the same! This talk gave me goose bumps It described who I am to the T.

[@annmarie3660]

This episode has brought me to tears....this is me.

[@cljones2009]

Me too!

[@annettestephens5337]

And me! I’ve spent a lifetime using various addictions and contemplating taking my own life. Now just begun the ACA 12 step program in order to heal and find another way to live. 😊

[@tanyaboshoff7206]

And me...

[@tanyaboshoff7206]

This all makes so much sense! I have MS, my mother always told me as a child that I needed to be better and that she was disappointed in me because I was not perfect and not good enough. As an adult I have become so obsessed with perfection, thinking I could never be good enough for other people. But I realised I must be good enough for ME. Dr Gabor is a genius! So many pieces now fit into the puzzle which explains who I am. Thank you Mel for this amazing channel xxx

[@rutendomatanga2989]

@melrobbins Normalizing life in the eyes of someone who expects the old you is much of a problem.Whats worse is developing yet another form of anxiety from judgemental and watchful eyes that expect you to slip.Perhaps it would also be less disappointing if pointing fingers do so after being sure they are certain of what they suppose....Let them I guess
