what’s that believe nation its Evan my
one word is believe and I believe in
people more than they believe in
themselves and my sincere hope is that
if you see in you what I see in you
you’ll be able to change the planet I
started to mentor me series with the
goal to try to learn from people who’ve
done a lot more than us trying to hang
out with people who had more success in
us and hopefully some of their beliefs
some of their mindset some of their way
of working teaching us to help us become
the best version of ourselves so today
we’re going to learn from Joyce Mayer
and some of her best motivation mentor
me Joyce rule number two is my personal
favorite and I’d love to know which one
you guys like the best also as you’re
watching if you hear something that
really resonates with you please leave
it down in the comments below I put
quotes around it so other people can be
inspired by it as well and if you leave
it within the first couple hours of this
video going live you have a chance to
win one of two daily prizes

fear is something that’s not ever going
to completely disappear from our lives
the feeling of fear is not ever going to
completely disappear and just because
you feel fear that doesn’t mean that you
have to be afraid and I don’t know about
you but that was a real great revelation
to me many years ago because I kept
wanting to not feel afraid and God
wanted me to feel the fear and be
courageous anyway
courage means to go ahead and take the
action that you believe you should take
or that you know God wants you to take
while you feel fear without our feelings
dictate to us way too much and so the
only acceptable attitude that a
Christian can have is simply I will not
fear so let’s all say that I will not
fear now once again that doesn’t mean
that you’ll never feel fear matter of
fact I can pretty much promise you that
you will but it does mean that you can
feel the fear do whatever you believe
that you’re supposed to do why you feel
afraid you can learn to do it afraid if
that’s the only way that you can do it
don’t let the feelings of fear keep you
trapped any longer I want you to live
and not be frustrated and upset all the
time and full of hatred and bitterness
and anger and mad at everybody because
you’re not happy why don’t we just grow
up and say I’m going to take some
responsibility
I’m not be responsible for me if I’m
acting bad it’s not your fault it’s my
choice
[Applause]
well I’m not going to change but I want
them to change too come on now this is
big right here well I’ll change if
you’ll change you know what you need to
change or the bait change or not when
your flesh doesn’t get its way it’s
uncomfortable for a little while has
this little fit come on you don’t know
how this works how many of you’ve got a
small child you watch them throw a fit
every time you don’t get the way what
applies is same way
[Applause]
[Applause]
do you have any idea how many days that
I spent doing that I go as far back in
the house as I could get into the very
back smallest bathroom in the house sit
down the floor in front of the commode
of all places you know if you’re going
to feel sorry for yourself you might as
well just be in the most pitiful
position you can be in in the most
pitiful place in the house and just if
you’re going to be pitiful just be
really pitiful just think all these
hopeless thoughts nothing good ever
happens to me I just work all week Dave
gets out with people and I’m stuck here
with these kids all the time then he
comes home and watches football and then
he goes off plays golf on the weekend I
just clean and clean and cook and clean
hey the bells we count the money and
cook and clean and cook and clean I’ll
tell you what I was one person that
needed to get out of my tent
you know how the flesh is how many of
you would just be willing today to give
up kitty parties could I get you to go
on a pity fast for the next year come on
are you fast pity for the next year
anybody in for it now you don’t want to
say yes too quick because as soon as you
do you’re going to get attacked with it
I’ll just go so far as to tell you this
you know what in the natural without a
miracle of God we’re going to all be
tired tomorrow and you got to be really
careful about your soul when you’re
tired now you would think that I after
as hard as I work that I could go to one
conference once a year and come home and
find this house in decent shape but I
don’t know and you know some of you have
already made your mind up when you go
home and go to the front door if things
are not the way you said they should be
when you got home that you are going to
tell them a thing or two and then that’s
so Kitty’s going to attack you after
coming to a beautiful event like this
and all the glorious amazing wonderful
things that have happened if I don’t
tell you this now some of you but
tomorrow afternoon at 3 o’clock would be
sitting in the floor with your helmet of
hopelessness on having your pity party
but not this time because you’re going
on a fast
I had to give up pity because God said
you can be pitiful or powerful but
you’re not going to be both take your
pick now first of all let me say this a
positive attitude attracts people a
negative attitude usually doesn’t win
you very many friends now I don’t want
to hurt anybody’s feelings but I just
want to throw this out for you to think
about everybody does not want to just
hear your problems all the time now
it’s great to have a good friend that
you can share with but you don’t have to
share and share and share and share and
share and share and share and share and
share and share and then when you wear
that one out go find another one and
share and share and share and share and
share and share so if you have a habit
of just talking about your problems all
the time it’s time to make a new habit
and that is to find something good to
talk about and I’ll just throw this up
for good measure to your friends don’t
want to just hear you talk about
yourself all the time most of us all of
our life have had what I call wrongness
we feel wrong about ourselves we’ve been
told that we do everything wrong there’s
all kinds of comments that are made to
people throughout their life that make
them feel like that there’s just
something wrong with them we have a
habit of feeling that we need to compare
ourselves with other people all the time
compete with other people all the time
even the pictures that we see of people
on magazines they look so perfect and
then it’s so easy for the enemy to tell
us that that’s the way we need to look
and if we don’t look that way then we’re
not really what we should be but any
time that we care too much about what
other people think
we’re going to end up being controlled
by the thoughts and opinions of other
people so if you ever really want to
live out your destiny and fulfill the
plan that God has for your life then you
have to learn who you are in Christ
that’s the only thing that I personally
know them that can free you from being
overly concerned about what people think
whatever
we saw we will ultimately reap if we
remain in that baby stage of
Christianity always just doing what we
want what we think of what we feel we
will reap that and we really won’t like
what we reap and we’ll probably blame
the devil and we’ll probably blame
people but the truth is we just never
got around to doing what we should have
been doing to start with can somebody
say Amen how many of you know we love to
blame all of our problems on somebody
else if we can’t find a person then it’s
the devil’s fault however the truth of
the matter is is nobody else is in
charge of your happiness except to you
do unto others we read this stuff too
fast and we go on to something else and
we just don’t get it what kind of power
is this given us in our lives do you
want people to appreciate you then start
appreciating everybody you meet you want
people to compliment you then start
sowing compliments everywhere you go
when people give you a gift you want
them to give you a really nice gift
something you’d really like to have then
start giving nice gifts don’t buy the
cheapest thing you can find give people
good stuff I tell a story about a poor
pitiful dumb because I got thrown down
in a well he fell into a well and the
farmer heard this donkey crying in the
well and he was trying to debate on
whether might try to get him out or not
the well was deep and it was going to be
a lot of hard work the donkey was old
anyway and so maybe we’ll just bury him
and let it go so he went got a bunch of
friends and said let’s just bury him
help he shoveled some dirt in there so
he’ll shut up the crying he’s an old
donkey and not worth too much anyway you
know there may be a lot of people that
think you’re just an old donkey and not
worth too much anyway maybe feel like
you’re in a pit right now and somebody’s
shoveling dirt on you but what are you
going to do about it
well the donkey’s down there and just
crying out pitifully
[Applause]
and here it comes shovel full of dirt
and then another shovel foot and then
shovel full of dirt and it would hit him
on the back and he’d go get on top of it
here it comes to more dirt some more
dirt some more dirt he’d shake it off
his back
he’d wiggle just a little he couldn’t
get out of a pit but he could wiggle and
he’d get up on top of that dirt and he
was getting closer and closer to the top
and pretty soon he’s walked right out of
that pit all those people shuffling dirt
on him helped him get out of the pit
are you out there tonight all those
people shoveling dirt on him actually
helped him and you may not know it but
some of the people that are giving you
the most trouble may be helping you more
than anybody some that I do almost every
day and I’ll just give it to you and I
think it’s a good thing to do I’m not up
very long sometimes I don’t even get out
of the bed and I say something good is
going to happen to me today and
something good is going to happen
through me today expect good things
expect them get your expect errs out of
the back of the closet dust them off and
start expecting good things in your life
how many of you have ever had a bad day
have you ever wished I would have gotten
this day started different than what I
did you know don’t don’t ever waste
today what you know you think about time
differently as you get older I think
when you’re in your 20s and maybe even
30s and maybe even 40s you don’t you
don’t think too much about time but a
few years ago it occurred to me that
two-thirds of my life was over and I
just became much more aware of time and
how how foolish it is to waste any day
that you have you know there’s something
really interesting about time we all get
the same amount in a day every day is 24
hours and some people are very very
fruitful and effective and some people
just waste their time day after day
after day and that’s a choice that we
make but there’s one thing about time
once it goes by you never get it back so
how it is to waste any day of your life
I think we need to live every day like
it was our very last one
and live it to the absolute fullest that
we can live it thank you guys so much
