"You're not a worrier. You have a habit of worrying... You're not a procrastinator. You have a habit of procrastinating." Blew my mind. Makes total sense. This video spoke to me 110% THANK YOU, LEWIS. Love your videos.

[@StormzzLeader]

In my mind its the same thing your just changing the name of it. A worrier has a habit of worrying. So same thing just different cover.

[@StormzzLeader]

El Jay a person who drives a car is called a driver.

[@StormzzLeader]

She actually doesn't say anything special, she just changes how to say it a bit. I get it helps her to get her point across to make people change their perspective but if you already have that perspective it kinda looks stupid. But can't blame her lots of MS do it.

[@StormzzLeader]

Yes but that does not change the fact that if you worry alot that you are a worrier. Cause if not then the word worrier has no meaning.

[@StormzzLeader]

But it kinda is cause she used it.

[@wandast.hilaire3402]

Since seeing Mel first on another Impact Theory and then here, I've been 5-4-3-2-1-ing like crazy and it's radically changing my life. I've gotten more done on my 'procrastination list' in the past ~6 weeks than in the past year - honestly. I'm making phone calls I dreaded. Mel Robbins is brilliant. Thank you Lewis.

[@DJBoyToy]

Good for you! I'm proud of you! Keep up the awesome work!

[@chrispeterson3647]

I can not express how much I love Mel. She has helped me more than any other speaker, motivational guru, or life coach. I seek out her stuff ALL the time. I love her! She doesn't even know I exist,and that is OK, I thank the Lord for her and HE knows that I know she exists and that she helps me and many many other people. There is a special place in Heaven for her and her sweet spouse. She is an example of someone who has walked the walk.I have a ton of respect for her!

[@meltdino1]

Wow! I'm already 57 years old and the same number of years of procrastinating. But it's not too late to be the best of what I am. In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, I'll be go! go! go! Thanks a million Mel and Lewis.

[@sheriejacobs5908]

Mel Robbins is such a relate-able human being. She makes me understand why there are so many obstacles I have yet to overcome and now I will work at this everyday! Thank you Mrs. Robbins for helping me to understand that you have to put the work in and earn your life. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you Lewis for having such a great talk here!

Video was amazing....but just wanted to say how wonderful for you and your husband for evolving and growing and changing together instead of giving up on one another and going your separate ways. It takes a lot of guts to choose each other instead of yourselves!!!

[@jerrysnelling8665]

I have followed Tony Robbins for years and that's how I came across Lewis's podcasts. This podcast came up after a Tony Robbins podcast I was listening to. I had never heard of Mel Robbins so I was just halfway listening to the podcast as I was working. I went back and replayed this podcast and sat down and listened to it! This lady is amazing! I live off-grid and own an organic farm and plant nursery in Tennessee. I don't own a tv or cellphone. I used to listen to Rich Roll's podcasts while working in my greenhouses. I've now added Lewis Howe's podcasts to my playlist! It takes a lot to get me to sit down and watch anything but I plan to watch all of Lewis's podcasts! He is one of the best interviewers I've seen!

[@MrAkurvaeletbe]

Jerry Snelling are mel and Tony related?

[@dantaitbrown9784]

"You think that you need to feel confident or courageous in order to get started. You don't. You actually just have to start, and that's the riddle of life." #goldennugget :)

[@PhilBallard]

"MEL ROBBINS" ~ "IS JUST SIMPLY AMAZING" .. She is all herself, completely natural, honest to the core and EXCITING beyond anything I've seen or heard .. We can't get enough of her wisdom and talent .. She's also a ton of "FUN"

[@Holi_sticcommunity2710]

She is one of the people who gave me total clarity that why do we screw ourselves over and over again! And most importantly how to stop doing that! Thank u mel and thank u Lewis for inviting her!!

[@mamalovesthebeach437]

I went through postpartum and peri-menopause concurrently and it was horrific . . . I never took any meds, I hiked and joined a Parenting the Infant Class . . . nature and a support group of other new moms saved my life. My baby is now 21 so that memory is far behind me . . . I wish I'd known what Mel talks about and what I've learned from Landmark, Tony Robbins, and now Brooke Castillo and Mel, you and others: Thoughts = feelings/emotions = actions . . . control your thoughts, control your emotions, control your actions. Thanks for this interview Lewis!

[@cynth68]

Mel Robbins is such a lovely person. Authentic and transparent... Love her!

[@spenserriches]

24:28 "You think that you need to feel confident or courageous in order to get started. You don't. You actually just have to start, and that's the riddle of life."

[@DramaMcqueen]

I have a severe anxiety disorder and even with medication, I sometimes struggle to keep it under control. When life gets too busy, when chaos reigns, when my plate is overflowing, I need real, practical advice to press through those moments when I feel frozen. Mel's advice has real life applications for all sorts of situations. She simplifies what I've learned through life experiences, therapy and education into a practical achievable plan. God bless you, Mel!

[@steffbradley7215]

I love Lewis's acknowledgement of Mel's hard work & inspirational attitude. It takes courage to acknowledge greatness, what a lovely guy. An thank you Mel for improving my mindset, just a little bit more. Truly loved this. Xxx

[@lesleyr8236]

60 minutes ago I'd never heard of Mel Robbins. I am grateful to you, the universe, KZbin whoever, I am just grateful that she came up on my feed, she's amazing. I was drawn in by her story and inspired by her vision. Thank you Lewis

[@fatihak4542]

"...to interrupt all the garbage that can trigger you to behave un a way that is inconsistent with your values..." that spoke volume to me ..thank u both Lewis and Mel for this awesime podcast ...imm ahve to countdown for myself to go to study now and change my life .

[@Emilia-ps2th]

This spoke volumes to me as well. This is new to me yet I like the idea of the interruption being so quick 5,4,3,2,1

[@wimeatsworld]

8:48 "One of the most important things that I want people to understand is that you're actually not a worrier, you have a habit of worrying." That's when I started paying attention.

[@attilioleonardi7848]

I'm sharing this with my real estate team. Best Mel Robbins interview in my opinion. Met Lewis Howes in Austin two years ago and after you spoke - it was obvious you where tired and a with a cold but you personally greeted every single person who stood in line to meet you - very genuine and authentic person Aloha from Hawaii!

[@Rezwan27]

Man.. She is so so rightly confident and explained it all in the simplest possible way. One must listen this in their down time!! highly recommended.

[@OliviaAmbani]

Wow that was soooo powerful! Thank you! Excited to action this.

[@e.e.surina4373]

Thanks!

[@downbntout]

Astonishing value here. I am no longer (some things that wd bore ppl) after this, now stepping into my own greatness. Immense gratitude. I will do the right thing and buy the book.

[@julie5310]

I can not tell you how much I appreciate this video...I thought it would be too long and repetitive, having watched many Mel videos, but time code index is SO GREAT, THANK YOU.

[@joysanchez3487]

One of the best interviews I've seen. Also one of the most honest.

[@melissawalker1764]

[@theforwardthinkerrobertinn9710]

"Thinking patterns that are self sabotaging" What a real statement...!!! "Anxiety is nothing more then the habit of worrying spiraling out of control" "Because everythings working right now" I love her candor...God Bless

[@lauragreen2998]

Lewis! This is an amazing interview. I stumbled upon this interview by "accident", and it was exactly what I needed to hear TODAY! Also, it was an aha moment for me when you talked about how you never filled up the 3rd cup! I have been doing the same thing between cup 1 and cup 2 and just never felt like it/I was ever enough! Thank you for being that kind of vulnerable! It made me realize that is what the missing ingredient is! Anyway, I can't thank you and Mel enough for this interview.

[@IAMBritneySSmith]

I really don't know how I ended up here to this video. But I do know last night what I secretly prayed about came up in this video as a solution to try. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[@maiterodriguez9998]

I was crying through the entire video she was describing my self in every way and giving me the answer I was praying for. Thank you for bringing this to my morning.

[@Selfstarter66]

U are not alone sweetie

[@choichoi3121]

The greatest is simple and love than you can imagine and understand. Thanks you Lewis and Mel Robbins

[@DJBoyToy]

I use the countdown to remove my anger. I used to have such an anger issue, but I count down, and tell my brain that I'm physically ok, I'm not hurt, its the other person who has an issue. I tell myself that it's ok to be upset, just react in a way that pushes yourself back into work

[@dawnthompson1251]

You don't know how badly I needed to hear 5-4-3-2-1 ! I appreciate all your guests, Lewis. I really like how you individualize your guests, especially with the last two questions you always ask. Well done.

[@user-onyoutube868]

"There is only one you, and there will only ever be one you." Beautiful and true!

[@sigruneg]

wow.. I feel like she is talking about my life right now when I feel so lost and that everything that I thought would be is not at all like that now and not wanting to get up out of bed because I am too worried about everything and I don´t feel like I have a purpose. Every time that I feel like things are going to work out, something pulls my feet from underneath me. But last night a made a decision, a chose. I decided to ask myself if this is what I want my life to be like in the future, to lay around and worry or if I was going to do something about it. I decided to do something about it and started the day with a 3k walk and then I went online to look for motivational speakers and found Mel Robbins on KZbin and in the process I found this interview which I am so grateful for. Thank you Lewis.

[@jossgirl]

so sweet when she gets choked up about her husband

[@hannahjaneheathson]

She really sends tingles up my spine when she talks about the motivation gap and how you can keep going even when you don't feel like it. It's about understanding that and making it a habit, to just do it anyway. Move forward, even when you don't feel like it. It's just incredible.

[@sarahs5340]

I seriously love her message. She is doing an amazing job. I feel like her method could help me move out of some major stuckness.

[@torizimmerman6359]

I needed to hear the message about the empty cup and trauma and success never being enough. Going through this evolution myself right now and it really does make ALL the difference. If you don’t focus on the “you” and get that under control, you’ll sink. That negative self talk will pull you under eventually! Love it.

[@essentiallyE91]

Lewis, thank you for these interviews! You have no idea how much your channel has helped me go for it! A million thanks!

[@thefitunitedpodcast9483]

I got shivers multiple times on this episode, especially right at the end. “Hear and speak your truth, regardless of how your voice will tremble”. Anyway, Lewis I’ve been absorbing your content and books for some time now, and have now started a podcast, with the long term goal of having the impact on people that you now have, and will continue to have. I love how you connect with people and how they respond to you and really bring out peoples truths. Thanks for being a mentor and inspiration.

Lewis!!! You have created such an amazing space for people to connect with you and your guests. It's a space where your guests can allow themselves to be vulnerable enough for all of us to learn from them. Something that is just as powerful, is that it's a space in which your listeners feel comfortable enough to open themselves up to change. Thank you for what you do, and creating a space where we can all come together to be the best we can in this life!

[@MrVikingsandra]

Maaaan this one made me smile sooo much and really warmed my heart. What an incredible life changing concept! I love it!!

[@jonnycpardoe]

Totally agree.

[@stevecarter1673]

I have never heard of Lewis Howes and only recently found Mel and the 5 second rule. A couple months ago maybe I heard her for the first time. I tried the 5 second rule back then once and found it intriguing. I thought I would buy her book but I procrastinated because I have a "habit of procrastination." I have a faith in God that has delivered me from a some very destructive habits. I have desired to do a few things for the past 9 months and still to this day have failed to execute those desires. WHY, has been the question in my mind as each day I don't exercise, each day I don't make those phone calls or visits. It is on the list of things to do today to get her book. I am excited to hear her of how this book can help me alter my life by choosing to use the 5 second rule to override my "feelings" of I want to but I don't "feel like it". I was in tears by the end of it to hear the expressions of appreciation and edification for each other. I feel like a failure but I have renewed hope in the possibilities of fulfilling my dreams for my life. To become the best person that I was born to be. Thank you Mel and Lewis! Much love to you both.

[@stevecarter1673]

You are most welcome Lewis, I did subscribe to your channel today. I would hope one day I will have something to contribute to the world as you do. Thank you for all you do.

Rio Slaven Don't read the book just just take action and live the life you want. All you need is the five second rule. 5...4...3...2...1...take action.

[@KyleJaySmith]

Lewis, wow man, this interview of Mel Robbins (who I didn't know about until now) spoke so clearly and articulated her 5 second rule very well. I learn so much from all your podcasts, you choose all the right people and ask the right questions. You do great work!

I love watching your shows and others like you because I want to spend my 20s developing myself and finding myself so I have more time relaxing and enjoying the rest of my life. I am currently 22 and I feel that I am almost at the edge of discovering exactly who I am.

What a great thing you are doing by providing this information. You and Mel are amazing. I listened to you this morning on Glenn Beck and I could tell you were a good person and therefore must have good guests on your podcast. I will be watching and listening to more. Thank you, thank you. This is so spot on; we all make decisions with our feelings/gut, no matter how smart we think we are. Thank you for having the guts to do this.

[@kelwinkwel]

Mel you got me through my day with new approach using the 5 sec rule to bring my focus back to center

[@pjc75]

5.4.3.2.1......watch this video. Buy this book. Mel Robbins has hit on a simple "stupid" idea to change your life! Love, love, love this episode!

[@MissaLifeStyle]

That's so crazy, 6 months ago I had some health issues which caused panic attacks for the first time in my life. I had to go on Ativan and later Zoloft too. I'm happy she shared that because it feels taboo to talk about. Especially, at 32. I'm definitely going to check out her book.

[@MissaLifeStyle]

Bought it! :)

[@bbjonas4233]

Missa McFadden Mel said in another one of her talks that if she had diabetes, she'd have to monitor the way her body metabolizes sugar. She said with panic attacks, it's like diabetes, it's just how her body responds to stress. Which is so true. Nothing to be self-conscious about. I now tell people I suffered from them because maybe my sharing may help someone else too. xo

[@NoName-zb1gm]

Hang in there. I went through something similar when I was around your age. I had a great job that I loved so much but it was inevitable I was going to lose it. I had panic attacks and they were terrible. I was on some medication and actually had a lot of unnecessary medical tests. Sometimes we face real life problems and stresses for the first time and this is what happens. Try to power through whatever problems you were having and have some positives in your life and the panic attacks will hopefully go away and the fear will become a distant memory.. And also learn to not get stressed out. Just deal with stuff as it comes and don't dwell on it.

[@Carlosstanback]

I love listening to you Mel Robbins, this is my first time hearing you it will not be the last time for sure - you're great. Thank you for helping me with so many insecurities I've struggled with in my life and career.

[@Carlosstanback]

I will do so today - sorry for the delay.

[@andreasroosofficial]

By the way, there's ONE simple trick you can do to get out of bed immediately without all the delay justifications... Put your alarm clock outside of the bedroom. That's it. Why making it complicated... You can't stand that noise, you will have to get up. I had the same issue with snoozing for years and since I have the clock outside of the bedroom for about two years now, I get up in ONE second literally saying every time "oh yes, let's do this".

Andreas Roos Ha - I moved the alarm clock across the bedroom 23 years ago. Getting up at 5:15 a.m. this still works to move me into mental action also.

I agree that it helps a lot. I still have to put a lot of effort into not going to sleep again :D so I also need to add brushing my teeth immediately. After that, I am awake

5 Second Rule = 5 Second Window between the instincts, the shoulds, the urges, the inner wisdom, things that can change your life if you listen to it. You got a 5-second window from the moment you feel the instinct, Its a move and if you don't, your brain is designed to actually kill it - 30:33
