TERRI: What do people like Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga, Mick Jagger
and even me have in common other than the fact that we all wear
heavy eyeliner? We have disciplines and habits
that have led us to our dreams. I want to share
with you three keys that will lead you to your dreams.

TERRI: Hey, I'm Terri Savelle Foy, and you're watching Live
Your Dreams. I pray that as you invest in
yourself today, that you're captivated and you're
catapulted to live your dreams. I want to talk to you today
about a topic that I find very helpful. It's called mind over
mattress. Do you know the most successful people in the world
have habits and rituals that have led them to success? It's
their daily discipline. In fact, I have a video on YouTube called
five things successful people do before eight o'clock in the
morning. It has millions of views because people want to
know what are successful people doing that can lead me to
greater success? There's certain habits that I've been practicing
since 2002, never dreamed that those habits would lead me to
where I'm at today. I believe it's caused God to open doors
for me that I never thought were possible. In fact, when people
ask me today, they'll say, "Terri, how did your life change
so much?," I always say, "I changed my routine, and it
changed my whole life." In fact, we did a survey on Facebook. I
was asking people what they wanted to hear, what type of
messages they were interested to help them in their lives.
Unanimously, people wanted to know how to plan your day. It
was interesting. John Maxwell says if you want to see change
in your life, change something you do daily. If you want to see
change in your life, change something you do daily. It's our
daily routine, our daily habits and rituals that are going to
lead us to greater success. Tony Robbins said, "It's not what we
do once in a while that shapes our lives, it's what we do
consistently." I am so convinced that when you change your
routine, you can change your whole life. Just making a few
small changes in your schedule, your day-to-day schedule can
change your whole life. Listen to some people, some famous
people who have routines. I'm sure you're going to recognize
some of these names. People like Bill Gates. He starts out with
one hour on the treadmill, and he watches educational teaching
while working out every day. Howard Schultz, the CEO of
Starbucks, he wakes up at 4:30 every morning, walks his dogs
and works out. Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook, he says he wears
the same shirt every morning. I have no idea what that means,
but any way. He says it's one less decision to make that
contributes to less decision fatigue. I guess it works for
him. Richard Branson, the founder of the Virgin Group,
which by the way he runs 400 companies. He says he leaves the
curtains undrawn. The sun comes up at 5:45 am. His routine
consists of playing tennis with someone younger and more fit
than him, or he swims around his island before eating, and he
says he always has a healthy breakfast. Jack Dorsey, the
founder of Twitter, he said his morning routine consists of
waking up at 5:30 in the morning. He meditates, and he
jogs for six miles. Mick Jagger, he said he credits his morning
ritual of working out six days/week as to helping him
reduce stress and amping up his trademark stamina at like 85
years old. Lady Gaga, even, morning ritual begins with yoga
as well as five minutes of self-directed love. Every
morning she does this. Steven King, even he has a ritual. He
said he drinks a glass of water or tea between 8:00 and 8:30
every morning. He sits down, has vitamins, listens to music, sits
in the same spot. He says the papers are arranged in the same
place. This helps him clear his mind and be more focused. I
don't know, that sounds just as creepy as his movies. My point
is they all have morning routines and rituals that have
led them to their dreams. You may remember the guy named Jack
LaLanne. Some of you may not remember him, but he had the
longest TV fitness program in history. It ran for 34 years,
The Jack LaLanne Show. He also had a ritual that led him to
success. Get this. At the age of 94 years old, he was still
working out two hours/day. He said he would spend 90 minutes
lifting weights at 94 years old and 30 minutes of cardio either
swimming or walking. He was fond of saying this. He said, "I
cannot afford to die. It will ruin my image." At 94 years old
he still had a successful routine. My point is successful
people are proactive about their day, they're not reactive about
it. Proactive people take care of themselves first thing. They
have firm routines and rituals. Let me ask you, can your morning
routine really change your life? Are there certain habits that
successful people have in common that if you adapted some of
these habits, or if you applied them to your life, do you really
believe that it could drastically change your life? I
am absolutely convinced the answer is yes. In fact, you may
know my favorite preacher, Jerry Savelle, my dad. Back in 1969,
that's when he first got introduced to the Word of God.
He changes his whole life, surrendered his heart to the
Lord and realized that God was calling him to preach. He felt
this calling to preach. Nobody is asking him to preach yet, but
he knew inside God had a calling on his life. He also knew he
better learn the Word, if he's ever going to be prepared when
opportunities come to preach the Word. He said he was reading the
Bible one day. He came across that scripture, John 8:31 and
32. It says in there, "If you continue in my word, then are
you my disciples or disciplined ones. You shall know the truth,
and the truth shall make you free." He said he's reading
that, and he read it again. If you continue in my word, then
are you my disciplined ones. All of a sudden he said the word
continue became the biggest word on the page. He thought, that's
my problem. I've never continued anything in my life. The Lord
began to remind him, you've quit everything you've ever started.
Dad said he would get a job at a car dealership, he quit that
job. He'd go to another dealership. If he didn't like
them, he'd quit that job. He went to college, he quit before
the semester was up. He said the Lord began to show him, you've
been a quitter most of your life. He said, "If you'll
continue, you'll become a person of discipline. He realized, man,
I've got to start continuing studying the Word of God. Dad
said he's set this goal for himself, I think it was to get
up at six o'clock in the morning. He sets the alarm, six
o'clock. He decided I'm going to start reading God's Word every
single morning. He went in the guest bedroom with his Bible,
six o'clock in the morning. He's laying on the bed, opens up the
Word to start reading it. And an hour later he wakes up. He was
so mad at himself. The next morning he sets the alarm for
six o'clock, goes in the guest bedroom, lays on the bed, opens
up the Word, fell asleep again. He thought obviously I can't lay
in bed, if I'm going to learn the word of God. He set the
alarm the next morning and went in the guest bedroom and sat in
the chair, opens up the Bible, starts to read and again he fell
asleep. This happened over and over again. You've probably
heard this story, it's gone all over the world. He got so
desperate for change in his life and to become a person of
discipline, Dad says he went in the bathroom, stood on the edge
of a bathtub, balancing himself, holding a Bible, six o'clock in
the morning, and he said, "Jerry Savelle, if you fall asleep,
you're going to bust your head, you fool. You better learn to
get disciplined." Dad balanced himself morning, after morning
after morning until he got disciplined, until it became a
habit and a routine in his life to get up every morning and
study God's Word. My dad is one of the most disciplined persons
I know. In fact, he has offices all over the world. I think he's
written 70 books, he's on TV in over 200 nations. Why? Because
he continued. He began to become a person of discipline, a
routine. He developed a routine in his life that led him to his
dreams. The most successful, high achievers, they have
something in common. They practice mind over mattress.
What I mean by that is they cherish the morning hours to
invest in themselves. Now I'm talking about from political
leaders, to ministers to famous athletes, CEOs, celebrities.
They all have morning routines and rituals that have led them
to their dreams. You may have heard that phrase, the early
bird gets the worm. Personally, I don't care for worms, so I
like to say, "Those awake take the cake." Cake for breakfast, I
recommend it. Benjamin Franklin, even. He said, "Early to bed
and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." You
think about that. More than 200 years later early risers are
still some of the most successful people in the world.
Just listening to these words, think about your own routine.
Does your current morning routine support you? Does it
help you get closer to the dreams and the goals that God
has put in your heart? Is it preparing you for greater
success, or do you wake up frantic rushing, trying
to cramming everything in at the last minute,
you're flying. You're speeding everywhere you
go, just to get there on time. Well, why is a
morning routine the greatest time to establish a successful
habit? Well, for one thing, it's when you have the most control
over your day, is in the morning. It's the time to be
most productive, because people and priorities haven't invaded
your attention yet. In fact, I believe your morning sets the
tone for the entire day. It affects your outlook the rest of
the day. You start the day right. Willpower is at its
highest first thing in the morning. The longer the day goes
on, the more fatigued you get, but, when you start the day
feeling productive and accomplished, you invest in
yourself before you invest in everyone else, like I said, I
believe it sets the tone for the rest of the day. In fact, you
think about, when you get on an airplane, don't they say, "Put
your oxygen mask on first before you attend to those around you?"
Even if you have a small child, your daughter, your son's with
you, they still say, "Put your mask on first before you attend
to those around you." Well, it's the same with life. You have to
get to a place where you realize, "I've got to invest in
myself first before I invest in anybody else," even your
children. When you take charge of the first few hours of your
day, it sets you up to succeed the rest of the day. In fact,
many people call it the Golden Hour, because, like I said, it
sets the tone for everything else that happens the rest of
the day. Well, what separates successful people from
unsuccessful people could be summed up in one word: Habits.
It's habits. In fact, psychologists say, these
subconscious activities make up 40% of our daily lives. 40% of
our daily lives is a result of habits. Listen to this: 95% of
those who lose weight will regain their weight loss. Why?
Because of habits. 30% of those who set New Years goals quit
after the first week. Why? Because of habits. Listen to
this one: 80% of those who win the lottery file bankruptcy
within five years. Why? Habits. They failed to develop good
habits with their spending. Aristotle said 95% of everything
you do is the result of a habit. Well, I want to share with you
something I read in Entrepreneur Magazine. It was the habits of
the most successful, wealthiest people in the world versus
the habits of poor, unsuccessful people. I think you'll
find it very enlightening, the habits of the most
successful people in the world. I'll be right back.

TERRI: We're talking about Mind Over Mattress, how the
secret of your future is in your daily routine. Somebody
once said, "Good habits are hard to form but easy to
live with. Bad habits are easy to form, but hard to live with."
It really is true. I read this magazine article, someone sent
me this from Entrepreneur Magazine, where they did
research on the habits of the most successful and wealthiest
people in the world versus the habits of the poor. Now, in
order to do the criteria, to have a defining line, what they
did was they defined someone as wealthy as someone earning at
least $160,000 a year with $3.2 million in assets. They defined
poor as someone earning under $30,000 a year with less than
$5,000 in assets. Now, I never like to offend when I say this,
but this was just from Entrepreneur Magazine on ...
They were just trying to see, do wealthy people have certain
habits that, if we were to adapt these habits, could it change
our lives? The wealthy versus the poor, this is what they
discover: they said, "How many wake up three or more hours
before they go to work?" 44% of the wealthy, 3% of the poor.
They said, "How many listen to audio teaching during their
commute to the office?" 63% of the wealthy, 5% of the poor.
Then they asked, "How many read 30 or more minutes every single
day?" 88% of the wealthy, 2% of the poor. "How many exercise
four days a week?" 76% of the wealthy, 23% of the poor. Then
they asked this: "How many watch reality TV?" 7% of the wealthy,
78% of the poor. Then they asked this question: "How many believe
good habits create opportunities?" 84% of the
wealthy, 4% of the poor. Isn't that interesting? I thought that
article was so enlightening, because it's like Dave Ramsey
says: "If you want to be wealthy, study wealthy people.
If you want to be successful, study successful people." Then
he says, "If you want to be skinny, study skinny people."
The point is, they believe their habits have led them to greater
success. Well, the question is, "How do you develop a good
habit?" The answer is by repetition. By doing something
repeatedly, over and over and over, it becomes a habit. People
say, "Well, Terri. I'm burning the candle at both ends. I don't
have time to add another habit or another discipline to my
schedule. I'm already exhausted." You know, we could
be wasting valuable time that we don't even realize we're doing.
For example, television. Now, don't turn the TV off yet, but
almost every home in America, they say, has at least three
televisions in it, at least three. Well, I read where the
average American watches six hours of TV every single day.
That's on the average side, so that means some watch less, but
some watch a whole lot more. Six hours of TV every day. Well,
I've also heard that, if you continue that habit, by the time
you're 60 years old, that's 15 years of your life glued to the
television, or, as I like to say, watching other people live
their dreams. Think about the TV time. I read where our smart
phones ... Listen to this: We spend 4.7 hours every day on our
phones, 4.7 hours. Well, we're typically awake, what, 15 to 17
hours a day, so we're spending one third of our day on our
phones. Isn't that crazy, when you think about that? Social
media, on average, people in the United States check their social
media accounts 17 times per day. That's just on average. Adults,
listen to this one, between the ages of 25 and 54, actually
check their social media more than teenagers, Instagram,
Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook, all that. Well, what could we
accomplish just by eliminating one hour a day from our phones,
from social media, from watching TV? I believe it could change
our whole life. In fact, you've heard of Tony Robbins. He
actually calls it the Hour of Power. He claims the majority of
his success is due to this Hour of Power, this morning ritual.
He said he's taught this to highly successful people, like
celebrities in entertainment, professional athletes, Fortune
500 CEOs, the Hour of Power. Brian Tracy, he's a great
motivator. He said he speaks 100 times every year, that's a lot
of speaking, writes four books a year, runs three businesses,
travels all over the world, and people ask him, "How do you do
this? How are you doing this?" He said, "A long time ago, I
developed a morning routine." He said, "I always get up two hours
before my first fixed appointment. He has a morning
routine. Now, what he said is he invests in this Hour of Power,
or this Golden Hour. What he suggests is 20 minutes of
exercise, 20 minutes of reading, and 20 minutes in prayer. That's
the Hour of Power. Well, you're investing in yourself when you
do this. Highly successful people invest in themselves
consistently. In fact, I'm sure you've heard of Warren Buffett.
He's I think the fourth wealthiest man in the world. He
said, "The best investment you'll ever make," and people
brighten up. He's known for his investments. What's the best
investment you'll ever make? He said, "It's in yourself." He
said, "It pays 1,000 to 1, investing in yourself." Well, I
want to give you real quick three keys that will help you
develop this lifestyle discipline to practice mind over
mattress and to take your life to a whole new level. Number one
is practice the Hour of Power. Just start practicing that Hour
of Power. Jack Canfield, he's the author of Chicken Soup for
the Soul, he said that he practices the Hour of Power by
doing the same thing like Brian Tracey: 20 minutes of prayer,
20 minutes of exercise, and 20 minutes reading. Now,
Jack Canfield alone, he said, "I have read over 3,000 books by a
simple dose every day." 3,000 books by just 20 minutes a day.
He's also in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most
number one books on the Best Seller's List at the same time.
It all began with the hour of power. 20 minutes in prayer, 20
minutes of exercise, and 20 minutes reading or educating
yourself. You know, in that 20 minutes of prayer my dad's
always taught me to take a journal and a pen, and start
practicing hearing the voice of God. Just listen for God. Or,
during that 20 minutes you could say, "I'm going to read one of
the Proverbs every day. There's 31, so every day I'm going to
read one Proverb." Or, you could spend that time reading The
Bible. You could just worship God. You could sing. You could
get into that habit of journaling your time with the
Lord. Anything that comes up in your spirit, you start writing
it down. 20 minutes with the Lord. Another is exercising. You
know, he recommended the 20 minutes of exercise. I always
tell people this, I say, "Don't look at the one hour you don't
have." So many times we say, "I know I need to work out, I know
I need to start that habit, but I don't have an hour, Terri, to
just devote to exercise." Well that's why I always recommend,
don't look at the one hour you don't have, look at the 20
minutes you do have and start with exercising. Start with 20
minutes. You might say, "Well, that's not much. That's not
going to change my life." Do you know, 20 minutes a day times 30
days in a month, that's 10 hours of investing in your physical
health. 10 hours of exercise just doing 20 minutes a day. The
other is learning in those 20 minutes. Take the time to listen
to audios. This is how I began changing my life. I didn't know
it was going to lead me to what I'm doing today. I was just
desperate to get out of the rut I was in. I was desperate for
change in my life, so I just started listening to a message
every single day. That's the first step. Number two is to set
a 21 day goal. You know, start this new habit, and you need to
chart your progress. Mark it down. Maybe get a physical
calendar or get your iPad and don't skip a day. Just say, "You
know what? I can do this for 21 days." Most behavioral
psychologists say if you can do something consistently for 21
days you can break an old habit and start a new one. Don't tell
yourself you can't do this, because like Joyce Meyer says,
"God didn't give us the Holy Spirit to do easy things." You
can do this for 21 days. Number three is start today. Just say,
"You know what? I'm not going to put this off until tomorrow. I'm
not going to say some day I'm going to get serious about this.
Just say I'm starting today." I have no idea what time of day it
is while you're watching this. If it's middle of the night,
start in the morning, but start today. In fact, Jimmy Lyons
said, "Tomorrow is the only day in the year that appeals to a
lazy man." I'll do it tomorrow. Start today. You know, just a
little reminder. Guard your words. Stop saying things like,
"I'm so undisciplined. Oh, that'd be great Terri, but you
have no idea how undisciplined I am." In fact, start declaring,
"I am disciplined spirit, soul, and body." One more little hint.
Now, this is just from me, this is just my personal opinion, but
don't make a big announcement to everybody. Don't tell your whole
family, don't tell all your coworkers and everybody, "I'm
going to be a person of discipline, you just watch."
Now, some people find it helpful to make that kind of declaration
to hold them accountable, but personally I like to just do it,
keep quiet about it, and then let other people observe this
new behavior in your life. Let them observe that wow,
something's different about them. Then after you've done it
for 21 days and then you say, "I'm going to go for a whole
month.' Then after a month you say, "I'm going to do two months
of this." Then you can start telling people, "I don't know I
just started this routine, I started this habit and it's
changing my life." Just kind of keep it between you and God and
just practice having integrity with yourself. If you say you're
going to do it, follow up with action. You know, I really want
you to get this special offer we have this week. It's Mind Over
Mattress. You know, some people talk about mind over matter,
this is Mind Over Mattress. In other words, make yourself get
up and start investing in yourself. In this series I talk
about the five habits of the most successful people in the
world, five habits of the most successful people in the world.
Most of them do all of their habits before 8:00 in the
morning. When I began to learn this, I began to practice it in
my life and I'm telling you, people say all the time, "Terri
what is it? What did you do to change your life?" I say, "I
just changed a few things about my daily routine and it changed
my whole life." I believe the same thing can happen for you.
Mind Over Mattress, then also we have Discipline to Reach Your
Goals. Now, this is a four part teaching on discipline. It
actually has a syllabus in here with some notes that I believe
will be helpful to you where you can actually take notes. You can
listen to them and fill in the blanks. You're going to learn
things like, how do you change desire? You know, desire is the
number one motivating factor behind change. You have to
really desire to change if you're going to see change.
Well, I'll teach you in depth how to change your desire, but
in one sentence, you have to change what you give attention
to in order for your desires to change. When you start giving
more attention to hearing God's Word, you begin to desire to
hear God's Word. When you start making yourself read for 20
minutes a day, you give that attention, all of the sudden a
desire begins to grow in you where you want to read, you want
to learn. The more you learn you realize how much you don't know.
I'll teach you how to change your desires. Even things like,
how to identify your energy cycles. You may have tried to
become a person of discipline in the past, maybe with weight loss
and exercise, and then you stopped after three weeks or you
stopped after two months. Maybe you're just doing it at the
wrong time for when you're the most energetic. I'll talk to you
about how to identify your energy cycles. I really want you
to get this. In fact, I put some scriptures in here, I call them
my power scriptures because when you start speaking God's Word
out of your mouth, your body's going to get in line with your
words. Mind Over Mattress and the Discipline to Reach Your
Goals, a 21 day solution to getting control. Like I said, it
comes with a syllabus. I want you to get this because I
believe the secret of your future is hidden in your daily
routine. If you change your routine you can change your
whole life. I like to remind you, don't look at all the years
you've lost, don't look at all the mistakes of the past. Let's
look at the years you've got left and start living your
dreams. Hey, be sure to follow us on Instagram, Facebook,
Twitter so I can keep you motivated to live your dreams.
Thank you so much for watching and keeping in touch with us.
We love to get response, we love to hear back from
you, and just know that all of us up here, we're
praying for you, we believe in you, and we
believe it's your moment to live your dreams.
