How to STOP Negative Thoughts & Win! | with Trevor Moawad 

There are so many powerful one-liners in this interview, I feel like I need to sit down and take notes, then select about 10 t-shirts I could put those lines on. "NOBODY CARES WHY YOU LOST".

"Your willpower will always lose to what you truly believe." Damn. That needs to be a tattoo

“The past is real, not predictive”. That’s a very powerful statement. Accepting the past for what it was while being able to continue moving forward is a precious gift and a sign of real strength.

“Don’t say stupid things. Try not to think them & DON’T say them out loud! Great interview! Thank you!

So many good lines in this: "Complexity is the enemy to Productivity."

this guy broke down the conscious and sub conscious mind so simply.

I was talking to one of my friends today and I felt like saying a negative thing about the way something was going. And I instantly said “I’m grateful for this and it’s going to be good.” and it felt so good. Definitely never saying negative things out loud ever again.

"The right attitude is a competitive advantage." That is a word!

Its sad to see that Trevor is no longer with us, but he added a lot of value in the time that he was here.

RIP Trevor. Your work has helped me so much, even after just a week of applying it. I was already doing positive affirmations, but knowing that giving those affirmations form through spoken word makes them more powerful helps so much. Neutral thinking really works. It keeps you from wallowing in negativity, and also keeps you from the complacency that can happen when things go too well.

The past is REAL, not predictive, minimize the slump...!!! I’m glad I came across this just what I needed. For me there were so many gems in this video to last a lifetime.

Man, this interview was a powerful reminder of the scripture that says "The power of life and death is in the tongue" One of the ways we are created in God's likeness is the ability to create or destroy with the spoken word. We shape our destiny by what we say. Good stuff.

Mind blowing interview. Didn't know this gentleman. I am generally positive, but I do verbalize things that I should not at times. That stops today. Rhe practice of neutral thinking begins. Time to maxout. Thanks, Ed. I just happened upon you yesterday. Learned so much already. Peace and blessings. RIP Trevor. That is why we have stop playing small and make max impact in the time God gives us. Thanks because your legacy lives on.

I discovered you a week ago when you were talking with Dr. Joe Despenza. Before I was even half way through the talk, I hit the subscribe button. You’re so positive, and you’re energy is infectious. I really need this today, I’ve been stuck in the negative for far too long. Thanks to you, I’m beginning to claw my way out of a very dark hole.

I do my Morning affirmations and it changed my life. Great stuff Ed. Bring your wife your better half on the show

whether you think you can or think you can't you're right.

This was a major shift in all personal power and thinking and what we can become! Fantastic!

Takeaways for me: quite being a serial reader. Just do what the book says! Bill Buckner story and what happened in 86 WS. Will power isn’t enough to defeat what I believe. I’m retired USAF, was an okay college athlete in distance running but need to apply the behaviors that served me well in both and apply them to running my business. I just heard about Trevor for the first time last month in a mastermind session. Thank you Ed for this powerful episode. I needed this!

This one was quite helpful. I love the simplicity of the actionable items & the concept of neutral thinking. As a former college athlete myself the anecdotes ring very true. I am adding these items to our business team's review binder for discussion and getting everyone copies of Trevor's book. Thanks for the video Ed & Trevor! Favorite Takeaways: 1. Don't say stupid / negative things out loud 2. Being mindful of what you consume ( Audio, Video, those that surround you etc) 3.Your past is real but IT IS NOT Predictive of your future. Your future is determined by the actions you take going forward. Change your behavior to actions that will support success towards what you are pursing. 4. Your confidence and self worth are built on what you do consistently. 5. Attitudes are contagious & the right attitude is a competitive advantage 6. "You don't need to be sick to get better"

This was one of the most impactful interviews that I’ve ever heard! I never used to believe in “positive thinking”. I am a negative thinker by default. After hearing this I can absolutely attest to the power of negative thinking, and how it has worked against me numerous times. I think it is so powerful to just stop saying and thinking negative shit. Then you can progress towards positive thinking.

One of the best interviews from Mr. Mylett!

🦋attitude and mindset is everything

Don't think I've heard Ed Mylett's thought stacking before. Love this.

Name dropping per minute is off the charts ....

A tremendous loss the world has endured. I was on Audible downloading his book and I am not yet done with this video. I was cooking and listening... I like the real world no BS approach. This has breakthrough written all over it.

God made me to thrive and live life abundantly. So if God is for me who can be against me, including myself. Head down moving forward and #maxingoutmylife💪💪💪

Miss you Trev.

This is a game changer! Negative thoughts are 4-7x stronger than positive. So reverse that and let’s live a 4-7x easier, happy & more successful life by thinking positive from here out 🙌❤️💪

Love it. Shine on Friend

Dude! That was EXACTLY what I needed to hear! That part about negative thinking and speaking it out loud, increasing the probability of what you DON'T WANT TO HAPPEN ... 40-70 times more probable!! No wonder my world has been jacked up!! Gonna put that concept of NEUTRAL THINKING to work like, RIGHT NOW!! Ed, all of your interviews have good stuff in them! I've come away with many "golden nuggets" but I must say this one with Trevor Moawad, has hit me right in the gut! Such profound statements, all throughout the interview! I took 5 pages of notes and will definitely listen to it again! For sure will be getting his book, It Takes What It Takes! Great Stuff! Love It!!

You can’t be both awesome and negative... 🔥 🔥🔥chose one 🔥🔥🔥

Perfect message and timing. I was a little down today and boom this interview a real guardian angel moment Totally reinforces my program I'm working on now LAW OF DETRACTIONtm. Master 86 rules or 86 yourself. 86 responses understandings to kill our DETRACTION in order to manafest ATTRACTION. "Greater Responses Greater Success". Or words and reaction to personal and professional life. I was the walking talking PMA person in the world when younger in both word and deed. In sales great success and increases. Spirit killer was negative people and 32 pay cuts with multiple companies for creating increase up to 800%. A real WTF is this program. My last great opportunity I passed on cause I was done with the industry wanted out. That opportunity the company cut me 2 times. Loved the owners and bosses and job but was just done. I left. That opportunity cost me 15 million. Proves the story never quit and many do just before they make it big. Love the interview. New Ed Mylett follower.

Yes , neutral in our language , we need to be radical in our candor with our selves . Also it’s not the slump , how you minimize the length of the slump . So impressed with the interview .

This just became one of my favorite episodes! Like Trevor, I was raised by a parent (my mom) with this "ahead of her time" or "new-age" mindset yet I did not embrace it until I was well into adulthood. Still a work in progress but love how simple he broke it down. 100% doable AND therefore attainable. HUGE thanks for this one (and all of the others...).

Thank You Ed Mylett 😊 So much of this resonated with me. The part of how you see yourself, and making New Year’s resolutions. As a kid, I never thought I was very smart, and having an older brother, who always got top grades, didn’t help 😜 (looking back now, I can see it from a different perspective) In the summer, after 6th grade our Mom and my brother, moved to Germany, (none of us spoke the language). I started 7th grade, and got tutoring and picked up the language, and went on to 8th grade, at a new school. Where I was asked where in Germany I was from, because I had a dialect. And as I tried to fit in, smoking seemed like a “good idea at the time “ I got passing grades, and in the summer, we moved to the US. And once again, I had to start over without knowing anyone, and not knowing the language. When I started 9th grade in the fall, my comprehension was tested at an 18 month old baby’s. During 9th grade, while learning English as my 3rd language, I received Incomplete on my classes, save for Math and Home Economics. The next year, I had to take and pass all 9th and 10th grade classes. I graduated on time with the class I started out with. So, looking back, I did pretty well. Then, I decided to go to a vocational school, and after orientation, I told my teacher, I would be there EVERY DAY, because I was going to get the “award for attendance”. It was a modular school, so the first week, we had class on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evening. On Saturday we were to have our first test. I got up really early, drove to a diner close to the school, and sat and studied for 3 hours, before taking the test and getting 100%. So I continued to do this every week, and not only did I get the ‘attendance award ‘ also made it onto the “President’s list”. Not until I saw myself as a good student, did I achieve the result. And as the second point, about resolutions. Since I had started smoking in the early 80’s, to try and fit in, I had quit smoking multiple times. Only to start again. Once I had quit for over 6 months, and then started up . My brother, who had been a smoker in the early 80’s also, and successfully stopped, used to give me grief about it. And on this particular day, he said “why did you start again? I stopped, you can too, Make it your New Year’s resolutions to quit” I replied “Do you know anyone who keeps those? I’ll make a deal with you, you quit bugging me, and I will stop when I’m ready.” So, shortly there after, on February 23, 1994 I stopped smoking and have never even thought about picking it up again “ Our minds our absolutely amazing. Thank you for your time, Much Love and God Bless You

I remember meeting a random girl who told me I looked kinda down in a store and she wrote down this guys name for me, years later I found the note and was shocked with how helpful his thoughts have been!

Mind blown. I now understand more the consequences of negative thoughts and especially verbalizing those things.

Avoiding negative thoughts to ultimately focus on my business growth. Ed you've inspired me and many others, thank you very much! I will soon be posting videos to my youtube channel about business and investing with the ultimate goal of helping others achieve their financial goals and being an inspiration for them to start their own business.

Absorbing this again thanks Ed for great interviews and content

Ed I just want to personally thank you for helping me with transforming my mind, and thoughts! You have been such an inspiration to me and I listen to you every single day and for the past four weeks I have seen so many amazing transformative things happen in my life. I workout everyday and listen to your teachings while I workout.

I grew up with negative nurturing and hadn't realized how the hyper-vigilance I developed to protect myself led to deeply ingrained negative thinking. One day while washing dishes the dish soap slipped from my hand for a micro second. I even caught it before it hit the sink. In that brief moment I realized I felt an intense shame for dropping it. Now I notice how often I am simply thinking negative possibilities in every action and deep shame for perceiving minor anxieties about my actions. June became "Focus on what positively energizes me" month, where I reminded myself to shift away from negative thoughts and towards something I was excited about in the moment. July is "Stop Complaining" month, where I notice when I am being judgmental about anything-like traffic, the heat, the news, work, taxes, whatever. I like that teeter-totter balancing act analogy. It's funny to realize I even shamed myself for not being perfect at self-improvement, lol. It's sort of like working out at the gym-if I over do it I'm in pain for weeks and get weaker and weaker if I don't rest and rehydrate, but then some days I just need to show up and not wait until everything is perfect and simply put the time in.

Couldn't help but notice he's still wearing his wedding ring.In some minds that may be more than enough reason to have some doubts. However, to me, it just makes him real. His message, more attainable. That level of success, at the risk of being more positive than neutral, tangible. I'm thinking, I'm just as human as this guy? He's just as human as me? Its a human thing to think negative thoughts but still succeed?!?!! Holy s$%t, I can really do this. Thank you Mr. Mylett for this. I've seen Coach Moawad in other outlets but never this "real". Life changing stuff.

Thanks very much for this!

I woke up, thinking negative about some bullshit ( but still relevant) delays in my work in my business. This was such an awesome way to reframe and avoid negative thinking. Great work to both of you! I am definately getting Trevor's book

"Don't say stupid things, try not to think stupid things, but definitely don'y say stupid things."

This was AMAZING! So applicable to multiple areas of life, not just sports! LOVE this and I'll be rewatching it!!!!

Thank you so much Ed, I have a really big goal that I want to achieve and when I first needed inspiration, I bumped into your channel (1 year ago) and so much of my life has changed. I watched all of your 1 on 1 talks and they were so inspiring and realistic and as an athlete, I use those videos to inspire me every morning. Thank you for all you have done and thank you for all the awesome content during this difficult time. Stay healthy and safe. Thank you!:)

I fully believe in keeping your word. If you aren't going to do something then don't speak it because it's all about integrity. When it comes down to it your word is all you have and all that really matters. You can decide what happens in your life by choosing what you think/talk about to yourself and others! Ed your The Man brother, thanks!

I feel like I’ve said this before but the content you bring juts keeps getting better! This is one I went back and watched certain parts. My biggest takeaway/something I implemented immediately was using NEUTRAL THINKING. When, how, and the effects of using it. It’s MA-JOR 🔥 Thank you for sharing this.

Thank you so much Ed. God bless

Excellent interview, Ed. I love the speed with which you keep the questions moving. You really set a strong pace, and Trevor has a terrific message to share.

Thank you Ed for this podcast it was a rough week for me and my family and this has helped my mindset and will remain in neutral mode and forward mode have a blessed evening and I’m gonna keep listening to you and moving forward..

The story at minute 20 reminded me a lot of Malcom Gladwell “Outliers”. Awesome 👏

Great interview!!!! I am in the process of reading Trevor's book right now. I'm very happy I randomly found both of you. "Stop saying stupid shit out loud" is my new motto.😉

Loved the interview and 1480! It's all in our mind and what we believe about ourselves. What we speak/utter outwardly ultimately determines our destiny. I see that in my life and believe it to be true. I love the analogy of the car it really helps to picture the situation and focus first on neutral and then on drive. Thanks!!!

This is brilliant!!!! What a great interview and mindset for 2021.

Absolutely FIRE!!!!! Thank you Ed.....

Things dont just happen simply because you speak it. It is the feeling and emotion behind it that reinforces the thoughts and words. Great Interview!!

So many great nuggets of wisdom here. Great interview, sir! I'm a firm believer that our lives are a direct byproduct of the choices we make on a daily basis which are a direct byproduct of our thoughts and beliefs. I've never heard anyone lay out a game plan for mitigating those negative thoughts quite the way you and Trevor did. Definitely going to go read his book, like right now.

Listened to this when it first came out, I just finished listening to it again. I needed this reminder such great content. I feel like due to mindset impact on me from my childhood I can't raise my thermostat level. Open for help tired of warming and and getting cooled back down, such a hard emotional roller-coaster not to seemingly being able to get off of!! Help appreciated!!

Thank you both guys.

Good message. I see states, stories and strategies here, succinctly. Have to get this book and keep my conscious clear and neutral, my unconscious most positive. Who can't forget Bill Buckner and the Red Sox taking it on the chin or Russel Wilson Superbowl ....in the absence of negative thinking.....positive speech surely can be a lifesaver.

thank yu Ed you are amazing!! thank you for all that you do

This is exactly what I needed. Wow that was great, love it. Thanks

So glad I watched this. Thanks guys very helpful 🙂

Amazing amount of value in this! This is exactly what I needed to hear. Time to do work!

Excellent ! Excellent advice here! 👌🙏🙏🙏 I absolutely believe in the power of negative words spoken out loud! People should just stop saying all this negative BS about themselves! Why do people not listen to this advice?! I see this repeatedly- and then they cannot understand why life is just so tough and so unfair 🤔Thank you so much Ed! Once again one of your best interviews! Greetings from Singapore 🇸🇬

"I would rather aim high and miss, then to aim low and hit!!! " #facts💕it

Yes. This is so awesome. Love Trevor and his message. I can’t wait to get his book. Can’t wait to watch this Ed. Ty sir💕🙋🏾‍♀️💕

This is so powerful! Definitely an episode to keep on tap to listen to any time. I don't know where you keep finding these guests, but keep up the good work! #maxout

Incredible program, love his thought process and candor

I’m one minute in and got enough gems to marinate on for the night! Good stuff!! Can’t wait to finish the episode!

Love it. Thank you for all you do brother. You and your guests are having such a profound in pact on me and so many others. Thank you. I love you and what you do.

Thank you for this interview. Alot of gold!

I love this show!! Thank you!

Going to be a great watch before sleeping.

Seriously cannot believe this has not got more views . One of the best i have ever listen to went straight out and bought Trevors book and it is well worth the read. Thanks ed and team MAXOUT!

I just wish it had more examples and content on thinking neutral and how to rewrite your brain to only think either neutral or positive. I’m already pretty good at this but really looking to be great at this. I am so grateful for this video and for you both!

Every time I see one of your talks I’m always forwarding to people because I want everyone to have this opportunity for such amazing information. Sometimes not everyone wants to hear they have flaws but we all do. This one really hit home because I know I can achieve so much more potential but I’m in my mind talking down to myself. This is a good habit for me to work and plan on continuing to be my most positive self. Thank you again for your talks I look forward to hearing more of them.

Ed, THANKS for the advice !! Above all it's free of charge !! God Bless.

Amazing as usual. Thank you so much. SO many gold nuggets in here.

Absolutely life changing conversations!

This is exactly what I need right now. I especially love the part about "Your past is real, but not predictive. What you do next determines your future." Thank you!

Loved this. I just heard of Trevor and his book last night. Bought it on Audible. This morning before digging into the book I watched this as an appetizer course cuz I admire Ed so much. Thank you for speaking at WREIN Live btw, not a dry eye in the house or as a virtual attendee. ❤

I have replayed different sections of this at different points of the interview..I cannot believe how good this was...45 mins felt like 4.5 mins.Recently the negative thoughts have come flooding back.this is powerful..#Maxout

Gonna watch before I go to sleep.

This was one of the top 5 interviews I’ve watched!!! 💥💥💥🙏

Thank you! Amazing interview!!🌟🌟🌟

Another great episode. Especially liked learning about thought stacking. Not sure if I had just missed it in previous shows or if it was new info, but it made sense to me today!!

Amazing explanation of power of negative thoughts. I love the story about refrigerator with 63 F. O man, it’s so strong! No Fake positive thoughts as well. Live it!

Certainly helpful. Much thanks - Trevor and Ed.

Gold, Ed! Best gems ever!!!!

Ed this is another winner, just bought the book! One of the your best interviews I have seen this is gold!

So many nuggets,what great content! Thanks Trevor!! Love you Ed, I am sharing your video, again💥💥

I once heard "willpower is like a muscle the more you use it the stronger it gets."💪

Really Classy move not to get into why he was not feeling physically strong. RIP Trevor Mowad.

Uncle Ed you always bringing a new high performer to help us navigate our life. Gotta keep your head straight. 🏆👍😃

Thank you, love this episode absolutely life changing. - neutral thinking to build self trust and confidence - So much good things in here I'm going to listen over and over again

Interesting, entertaining, and a plain language approach summary which is easy to understand. A deeper look would delve into quantum physics, which explains everything is energy. A thought is potential energy which is stored energy of position (gravitational). Once a thought transfers into spoken words, the energy becomes kinetic (sound). Kinetic energy is described as energy in motion. Manifestation is merely a byproduct of two functions the portion of the brain called the reticular activating system (RAS) controls. First, information is filtered and limited by the RAS to focus attention on what is deemed important and necessary. Second, the RAS acts as an ego defense mechanism by actively seeking out information to prove your belief system is correct. Where a person applies their attention is where energy (mental) is exerted, thus your attention has provided instruction to the RAS, what I said is important let this information flow freely. The term stacking in NLP is called a feedback loop, resulting in hyper focus due to the reptilian (primitive) brain function of fight or flight. Even though it is the individual speaking the words causing the issue, the brain still interprets the situation as a threat. As a defense mechanism which is no longer useful, the heightened sense of awareness was meant to keep us safe, but the brain cannot interpret the difference between actual physical threats to that hurt my feelings situations. What do you call an occupancies of placing energy into motion, providing instructions to the brain where focus and attention should be applied, and finally having the brain actively seek out situations to prove you are correct to protect you? Some call it Manifestation, some simply call it unintentional or intentional attention. When GPS coordinates are carelessly or thoughtlessly provided to the brain as definitive directions, the aimless direction provides an equivalent destination. Live a life with guided intention, take back the wheel and steer away from the habits which are no longer useful. Cheers

Worth saving this and watching it over again and again, there are so many gems in it. Class interview!
