Your mindset is made up of all of the established beliefs and attitudes that you default to internally. And a change in mindset is one of the hardest things to achieve, mostly because you spent your entire life drilling into your brain the most often false beliefs your parents, your community, or your friends have told you are true. Now, this doesn't mean that if you just repeat this mantra three times in the morning, you'll suddenly get rich, get the partner of your dreams, and your life will be abundant. You're not going to attract things into your life

just by sending your desires out into the universe. Okay. A change in mindset only works if it's backed up by a change in actions. If not, you're just a person who lies to themselves and knows it. Welcome to Alux, the place where future billionaires come to get

inspired. Number one, from 'I have to do this' to 'I get to do this.' Going about it from a perspective of gratitude and empathy is a big attitude shift. You get to do what you do for a living; that is a privilege. You get to work on this

project. The more honest you are with yourself, the more you realize just how easy you actually have it, and you still find reasons to complain about it. If you feel like your life is hard, zoom out. That thing you're supposed to do that you've been putting off because you're

lazy, you get to do that, and life will change for the better if you do. Once you start doing it from this perspective, you'll find it really wasn't actually as hard as you made it out to be. Number two, from 'life is hard' to 'life can be easy.'

and exciting your parents instilled in you this idea that life is hard and you need to work hard if you want to make something of yourself. For them, all they had to do was take the punches long enough, put up with the hard work, and they got their reward. But that's only

half right. Take the discipline from your parents but focus it on exponential growth. If hard work is all it took to be successful, the richest people in the world would be oil rig workers. Whatever it is you do for a living, there's a smarter and easier way for you to do it.

Somebody figured it out already and you need to find them and see how they did it. Here's what people get wrong the most: it's supposed to be hard in the beginning, but if it's still hard after a while, you're doing it wrong. This applies

to everything in your life. Okay? The moment you begin changing the way you do things, life gets easier and more exciting than ever before. Number three: from 'I will never' to 'how can I now.' This is one of those declaration beliefs people guide their lives on: 'I will never be rich. I could

never afford that. I will never get that part.' Well, you won't, and that's the truth. You want to know what the biggest asymmetric upside in life is? The biggest asymmetric upside in life is taking action when the rest don't. Just send the email. Okay? Just put the first

foot in front of the other. It will get you closer to your goal. The problem with thinking in definite ways is that it doesn't leave room for movement. If you've already established that something is not going to happen, well then there's no interest to even try.

the moment you switch to the 'how can I make this happen' attitude, things suddenly open up to identifying a plan that could really make it a reality. Average people have wishes; successful people have plans. So start planning. Number four: From 'I need to know everything' to 'I just need to start.' This is why most people never do anything. They say it isn't the right time, I never got around to doing it, or if only the opportunity would present itself. The truth is they're waiting for some external force to align all of the planets for them, turn on that green traffic light, and if possible, drive them to their destination. Only 3% of the population takes action on their goals; everyone else just chooses to settle for mediocrity. The biggest difference between those who win and everyone else is the first ones, well, they choose to

play the game in the first place. Number five: From wanting something to figuring out why you want something. You know Simon Sinek's TED Talk on 'Why'? We're not going to get into that. It might be a good time to rewatch it after

this video though. So we call this the rule of three, wise minimum. Here's how it goes: So at the core of everything you do, there is a deep reason. Here's how the process works. So let's say you want a Ferrari, but you ask yourself, 'Why do I

want a Ferrari?' The first answer is, 'Because I want to feel successful.' The second 'why' asks, 'Why do I want to feel successful?' The second answer is, 'Because I want people to see how well I'm doing.' The third 'why' is, 'Why do I want people to know how well I'm doing?' That final

'why' is why do I want people to know how well I'm doing? That final

why is why do I want people to know how well I'm doing? That final

answer because deep down I'm looking for the approval of others in order to make myself feel good. Oh, hit you with some truth there. You see, from the third why forward, shit's getting real, okay? You can of course go deeper than that, as most therapists will gladly help you uncover

more, but the more you spend time questioning the reasons why you want things, the more you get to know yourself and what actually makes you tick. Knowing why you want something is a game-changer in terms of life strategy. It completely changes the way you go about your goals

and it alters your decision-making process in the best possible way. It works wonders on an individual level, so do this exercise yourself and see where you end up. By the fifth why, if you're smart, you can flip this and use it for your business too. Number six: from

everything is fixed to everything is negotiable or flexible. If there's anything you learn after a few decades of being alive, it's this: life is as you make it to be. The problem with people thinking destiny is pre-written is that it takes away all of the fun in being

alive. It also shifts the responsibility from the individual into the universe. Think about it: you can send an email today and quit your job, and your entire life will take a complete turn at any moment. Your life could radically change if you decide to do it. It's scary, isn't

it, to know just how powerful you are and how you can alter reality at your whim. Reality is negotiable, okay? You really do have free agency to do whatever the hell you want. Negotiate money, negotiate life, negotiate love, negotiate everything. Fight for the things you want and don't

settle for the first thing that the world puts in front of you. When people close the door on you, you can still get them to open it up and let you in. That's what doors are for, okay? Give them a reason to open that door for you. It's up

to you to negotiate it. Number seven: from another obstacle to another challenge to see if I really want it. Everything worth having is hard to get. That ranges from a fully operational farm to mental peace. So naturally, you will face challenges no matter what you choose. Some things you

simply don't know. Others you know but don't understand, and there are other things you are just not capable of fixing yet. This is a challenge to see if you really want it or if you're just a pretender. Obstacles are life's way of

figuring out who deserves the reward at the end and who doesn't. You're out there building and have hit a roadblock, so you have to make a decision. Do you really want it or are you ready to call it quits? Because if you really want it, you

will find a way to solve this. If not, you'll use this obstacle as an excuse on why things didn't work out. Being challenged in life is inevitable, okay? But being defeated, that part's optional. You determine how this story ends because it's your story. Choose

wisely. Number eight: from things happen to me to I make things happen. Stop for a second and take a quick look around you. Everything that you see, everything you have, from the actual things to the people around you and the things that you do, you alone made all of this happen.

This is the result of thousands of decisions and indecisions, big and small, willingly and unwillingly. A big mindset shift is when you switch from a victim mentality to a Master of the Universe mentality. As long as you take ownership of what happens in your life, you'll be

golden. You are responsible for everything happening in your life. If you want different outcomes, you have to take different actions. Be accountable, take risks under your own name so everyone knows what's happening to you is by choice. If you play your cards right, it doesn't matter what hand you're dealing

with. That's why you see all the same people at poker tournaments, by the way. Number nine: Instead of defaulting to 'no,' ask and wait for the answer. Maybe it's because of the way you were brought up. Your parents didn't have much, so you didn't ask for much. Deep down you knew

the answer was already 'no.' Fast forward in life, and this behavior is plaguing an entire generation of now adults whose minds still default to 'no' as an answer to things they want. Don't be the person who says 'no' to yourself. Ask and let them

say it. You'll find that at least half the time the answer will surprisingly be a 'yes.' So roll that dice in your favor. Ask for a raise, ask her on a date, apply to that awesome job in Italy, do the thing your brain is telling you won't work out.

And stop defaulting to 'no.' It's free and quite literally life-changing. Number 10: From 'I wish things were different' to 'What's one small thing I can do today?' You are what you do every day. It'll hit you like a bag of bricks when you realize that.

everything you have in your life right now is the result of your daily actions. There have been hundreds of books released in the past 5 years about daily habits and the impact they have on your life because, well, people just now realize how mechanical we are in our own

behavior. Find that one small thing that gets you the slightest percentage closer to your ideal scenario. You want that back pain to go away? Well, maybe get up 5 minutes earlier and do 5 minutes of stretching and quick exercise, that's it. Do it right now as you're watching this

video, then do it again tomorrow. It's freaking 5 minutes, okay? There's no way not to do it. Add it to your daily behavior and it won't be long until you notice improvements. We've read all the habits books out there and they're

basically reiterating the same ideas over and over again. Focus on one thing only, start small, do it consistently and see what happens. And that consistency really is the secret sauce. You know Black Friday is coming up right? Well, at Alux, we're cooking up our biggest sale

for me now? Look, okay, do you have any idea how many people are in their second year at med school or law school and realize they hate it and don't actually want to do this for the rest of their lives? The numbers are staggering, okay?

Did they quit though? Nope, they sure didn't. They push miserably forward in a profession they despise just because someone in their inner circle pointed them that way when they really wanted to pursue art. Aubrey de Grey put it perfectly: Don't cling to a mistake just

because you spent a lot of time making it. This idea of a sunken cost is present throughout society and the outcome is unfulfilled individuals and situations they were too chicken to change and are now angry, miserable, and bitter. Do you think the person yelling at you from

behind the counter at the DMV is living their best life no okay of course not this wasn't their dream they wanted to be a veterinarian and work with horses but someone offered them the stability of this job and now they hate it and are taking that hate out on you

so do it now okay check yourself what are you doing right now just because you've sunk too much time money and energy into it already number 12 from this needs to be perfect to this needs to be done just get it done okay there comes a point where a 1% improvement in

the quality will require substantial resources your goal in life is to find that sweet spot where something is good enough to get the job done for the phase you find yourself in while you wait for the stars to align the sun to be shining and the birds to sing there is a

different version of you who just gets it done clunky maybe incomplete but done being awkward at the gym will always beat staying at home and watching 20 videos on how to do the perfect bench press version one will almost always suck okay but now version two has clear

things to improve on contrary to popular belief Improvement and progress don't come from huge jumps look okay you don't go from rotary phone to smartphone in a single simple step number 13 from it's already been done to I can do it too most people fail to follow up on their

ideas because they feel like it's not original enough they won't open up a coffee shop because there are already too many coffee shops out there they won't start creating content because there are already so many influencers you see the thing is the world is big enough for

everyone but very few take their own place in it You don't know the numbers You haven't read the data You're just telling yourself you have to be a one-in-a-generation miracle in order to push through the noise You don't need to be

Starbucks to be a successful coffee shop owner You don't need to be friends with Kylie Jenner to sell lipstick on Instagram There's enough space for you to even better There's too much space that's just not being properly utilized Number 14 from its either yes or no to

there's always a creative option Why does life have to be so binary It sure is hell ain't black and white So what's with all this duplicity All right Most people just don't realize that their basic programming is the equivalent of an IF function The problem is when this

isn't a perfect match so they disregard the entire thing You'll see this every time you have to work with the government Their system allows for only one way to get things done as inefficient as it may be We've seen this over and over again in business as well

you'll see it in folks who go take it or leave it thinking it's a strong negotiation tactic Well if I leave it none of us get what we want So there has to be a creative way to structure this and there always is okay It's just going

to take a bit more effort Ask yourself what the actual important thing you want to achieve is and what would be the easiest way for the other side to accommodate it The creative way might work better cost less and be way easier to implement for the both of you and

Number 15, from 'It's impossible' to 'There might be a way.' How can you say something is impossible when other people have done it? Okay? How can the sky be the limit when there are footprints on the moon? You hide behind the idea of impossibility. You only look at the

outcome and ignore the process. Life is predictable in the best possible way. Okay? You're living in the most abundant period in history. The next 5 years are going to be filled with incredible opportunities in all sectors of life, and you're smart enough to be a part of this.

change. Equip yourself with these changes and mindset, and you'll get yourself into a position to run when that door opens up. Now, out of these 15, which of these mindset shifts has had the biggest impact in your life? Be part of the community and answer in the comments, and

as for those of you who stick with us until the end, we've got a bonus for you. Don't allow disturbances in your airspace for 6 months. This is about you, okay? Your future and the future of your family. You need to be focused. You need

to know precisely where you're going. You need to build your own trajectory to follow. There's a lot of noise in your orbit, but a lot of shining objects, a lot of people sending you their energy and radio waves for a brief period of time. Put all of them on hold. Put everything

on hold. Turn the blinds on, laser-like focus. What can you achieve if you really, and we mean really, put all of your effort into it? What if you locked yourself in a room for 6 months and only pursued that one goal? That could change

all of the remaining years of your life what if you came out after those 6 months with a body of work that would stand the test of time 6 months that's all it takes six months of dedication hard work and focus you can't allow

anyone in your airspace because even the slightest impact could deviate you from your course and here's why you can't allow deviations Experts in air navigation have a rule of thumb known as the one in 60 rule it states that for every one degree a plane veers off its

course it misses its target destination by 1 mile for every 60 miles you fly this means the further you travel the further you are from your destination a mindset shift well Alex mindset shifts act like a correction that keeps you on track we hope you learn something
