The Mind Of George Show

The Power of Perspective

Episode Notes

What if your biggest problem isn’t the situation itself—but the story you’re telling yourself about it?

In this powerful solo episode, I reveal the single mindset shift that transformed how I run my life and business: understanding that your lens is your leverage. I break down how the way you see a problem determines whether it becomes a breakdown… or a breakthrough.

Whether you’re launching a product, navigating tough client calls, or just stuck in a negative spiral, this episode will give you the framework and clarity to change your perspective and change your results.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• The difference between breakdown and breakthrough (and how to shift between them)
• The 4-part perspective framework to regain clarity and control
• Why your business results reflect your mental lenses
• How to apply this mindset shift to launches, team issues, and tough decisions
• Why future-casting and coaching accelerate your perspective training
• How to pause reactive spirals and turn them into strategic moves

Key Takeaways
✔️The problem is rarely the problem—it’s how you see it.
✔️Event → Lens → Response → Result is the formula for personal power.
✔️Disempowering stories lead to disempowering actions—and poor outcomes.
✔️You can’t control what happens, but you can control your lens.
✔️Changing your lens changes your inputs—and that changes your identity.
✔️Perspective is the gateway to progress. Choose it wisely.
