Hey everybody, Welcome to the Keto Mom page. My name is Stephanie. Happy Monday! We've had an incredible long weekend in Kentucky. We learned a lot of things with our team together with our CEO, and we got to hear from three different personal development, growth, and mindset speakers.


Right now, we're still going through "The Magic of Thinking Big" by David Schwartz, and we're still on chapter 2. If you're following along, I'll tell you exactly the page we are on, in just a second.

𝗪𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝘀𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱.

But going back to our weekend, we learned from somebody named Jay Shetty. He's super popular, you've probably seen him on Instagram, Facebook, or other platforms. He was incredible, if you've never heard of him, go look him up. We also listened to Joseph McClendon III, and a lot of it was about mindset and growth.

If you're wanting success in any area of your life, you're going to have to work on your mindset.

Have you guys heard of Ed Mylett? He is incredible. He walked us through his journey of life. Oftentimes we think that other people's success was achieved overnight, which is not true. Ed Mylett, Jay Shetty, and Joseph McClendon III, all walked us through the story of their lives and it's not an overnight success.


Most people don't think of the 20 years of hard work or more. So as you're following people on social media, remember, you don't know the work that somebody put in, to look and feel a certain way. Not everything that people post is real. And some of you might compare your health journey to somebody else's. But always remember, everybody is on their own journey. The only way you fail is if you quit.

I believe the number one most important thing is to work on your personal development so that you don't quit, you don't compare and you don't give in. That way you become a better version of yourself, you can overflow and inspire other people around you. Let's dive into "The Magic of Thinking Big" by David Schwartz.

Chapter 2: Cure

Yourself from

Excusitis, The

Failure Disease.


What excuse are you making that allows you to let yourself off the hook? The more that you give excuses, the more you let yourself off the hook. We also talked about our health, and about not blaming things.

He said, most people blame being unsuccessful on their IQ or intelligence.

What I've also realized in talking to people here on the Keto mom page, people don't know what to do or they feel that they're not smart enough. Don't ever blame your success on the lack of intelligence.


“𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗴𝘂𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝘂𝗰𝗵 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿”


Oftentimes people feel they're not smart enough. They might feel the need to go back to school and take some classes. It's not that you shouldn't take classes or go to school, but oftentimes, we think we have to collect all these facts in our brain before we can have success in any area of our life.


𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀.

“𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲! 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗜 𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝘆 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗜 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸? 𝗘𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘂𝘀 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻.

There is no shortage of information on how to get healthy, or how to lose weight. Last weekend, I had the opportunity to teach, and one of the things I said was when we're seeking wisdom and knowledge is we learn and we do it. You not only take action, but you put it into activity every day.

I learned that from Joseph McClendon III, who said anybody can take action for a couple of days or for a week. But sometimes people want this instant gratification, and then they stop because they don't immediately see the results they want.
𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀.

He said you have to take the action into activity. And the activity has to be forever flowing, no matter what. If you truly want to be healthy, if you are here for fat loss or anything health-related. I'm going to challenge you to change your mindset. You're going to see results as you go, but I would challenge you to think long-term. Give yourself a year to get healthy.

Remember that you did not get here overnight. You're not going to get there overnight. There are a lot of things that play a part in your health. And if you've lost the weight, gained it back, and then lost the weight and gained it back again. Your body might think that you're not serious.

Are you going to do that for two weeks and then you're done? Or are you committed to enjoying the process of working on your mindset, learning as you go, implementing things you've learned, and creating long-term activity so that you don't quit for a year? I said on March 1st, let's give it ninety days, we're almost to summer. But you're not going to quit when June comes or when the summer is here. Instead, you're going to keep going.


“𝗠𝘆 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗺𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. 𝗔𝘁 𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸, 𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗮 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲. 𝗦𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻'𝘁 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝘁. 𝗗𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗽 𝗮𝗻 𝗜’𝗺-𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗲. 𝗣𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘂𝘀𝗲. 𝗨𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗶𝗻 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲”.


You've got to change the words that are coming out of your mouth, and your thought patterns. There are so many things that we learned this weekend. I've got so many notes and I'm going to start incorporating them as we go.


“Success leaves

footprints or

tracks”

𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗱𝗼.
If you're following somebody online and they make you angry, stop watching them. Watch people with an open mind, learn from them and then do the activity.

Do the things that they've advised you to do or do what they're doing. It's just like walking through a minefield, you follow somebody who's already gone through it. So if you want to do something, follow somebody who has already done it. You don't want to recreate the wheel.

Don't look at people and get frustrated because they have something that you want. Look at them with an open eye and mind and learn from them.

As Jay Shetty said, oftentimes we look at people two different ways. Either we look at them with envy, and it's going to make you angry, upset and give you an excuse to quit. Or you look at them, watch what they're doing, and then do the activities that they're also doing, so you can get the success that you want.

𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗴𝗼 𝗳𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿. 𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿, 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘂𝗽 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁. 𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁, 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝘆 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.


We will continue tomorrow with chapter 2, and then the next chapter is about building confidence and destroying fear. We need to destroy fear so that we can take action and have results.


I hope you have an incredible day. This really makes me happy. Reading books and drinking ketones makes me happy. My kids make me happy. The community that I was around this weekend makes me so happy and joyful.


Alright, I hope you guys have a great morning. As always, you can send me a message with questions you have. Continue to tune into the page for any keto, low-carb recipes, tips, or tricks. I'm just here to help. Have a good morning and we'll see you later.
