The Quiet Milestones That Matter Most
When I started writing Mind Reset – 7 Days to Rewire Your Mind and Change Your Life: A Simple Day-by-Day Guide to Build Discipline, Confidence, and Clarity, I didn’t know if anyone would read it.
I didn’t have a platform. I wasn’t backed by a publisher. I simply had a message — and a lot of hope.
So I shared it one post, one reader, one conversation at a time.
And now, some small but meaningful things are starting to happen:
Readers are discovering the book
Honest reviews are coming in
And even a few first sales have quietly arrived
They might seem like small milestones, but to me, they mean everything.
Because they prove that the message is landing.
📘 Mind Reset is a short, 7-day guide to help you:
✅ Break mental loops
✅ Clear mental clutter
✅ Rebuild confidence — one mindset shift per day
It’s available in Kindle, paperback, and hardcover — and the audiobook is on the way.
👉 You can still try Day 1 for free here:

📬 Or email me at alexriverabooks@gmail.com if you’d like the full ARC.
Thank you to everyone who’s supported this journey so far — even quietly.
It means more than you know.

How I Rewired My Mind in 7 Days — Reflections from the Author of Mind Reset
If you're anything like me, you’ve probably experienced seasons where your thoughts felt like quicksand — the more you struggled, the deeper you sank.
That’s where I was. High-functioning on the outside, mentally burned out on the inside. Overthinking everything, doubting myself, losing touch with what really mattered.
Then something shifted.
One evening I asked myself:
What if the problem isn’t my life… but the way I think about it?
That question led me to design a 7-day experiment — one that changed how I think, feel, and show up in the world. I called it Mind Reset.
It became the foundation of my book Mind Reset – 7 Days to Rewire Your Mind and Change Your Life: A Simple Day-by-Day Guide to Build Discipline, Confidence, and Clarity — and in this post, I want to share the 3 mindset shifts that made the biggest difference.
💡 Shift #1: Your Mind Is a Tool — Not Your Master
We believe every thought we have. But we shouldn’t.
Most thoughts are automatic — echoes from the past, shaped by fear, fatigue, or habit. I learned to stop treating my thoughts as facts. Instead, I started noticing them, writing them down, and questioning them.
Small Practice:
Write down a recurring negative thought. Then ask:
Would I say this to someone I care about?
If not, it doesn’t belong in your head either.
🧱 Shift #2: Don’t Wait for Motivation — Build a Structure
Waiting for motivation was my biggest trap. I told myself I’d start when I felt more energized, more inspired — but that day never came.
So I built structure instead:
A 5-minute reset each morning.
A core question to reflect on.
One limiting belief to reframe.
That routine created momentum — not flashy, but consistent. And it worked.
Try This:
Pick a tiny, daily habit — even 3 minutes. Repeat it for 7 days. Consistency rewires faster than motivation ever will.
💪 Shift #3: Confidence Comes from Proof
Confidence isn’t a feeling. It’s a consequence.
It’s what happens when you keep promises to yourself — even small ones. That 5-minute walk. That phone-free moment. That journaling prompt you didn’t skip.
Every time I followed through, I sent a message to my brain: You can trust me now.
Try This:
Choose one promise you can keep this week. Keep it. That’s how confidence grows — in silence, in repetition.
What Came After the 7 Days
No fireworks. No dramatic life makeover. Just a subtle, powerful change in how I felt.
The noise quieted.
My thoughts slowed.
And I felt in control again — not of the world, but of myself.
That’s what Mind Reset became:
A 7-day reboot for people who want clarity — but don’t know where to start.
If you're curious about the journey, I’d love to share it with you.

Day 2 – Break Free from Limiting Beliefs A 90-second visual meditation created with Veo 3
You weren’t born with self-doubt. You inherited it — from culture, childhood, and repetition. This short cinematic meditation invites you to pause and reflect on the beliefs that quietly shape your reality.
Limiting beliefs sound like logic. “I’m not ready.” “I always mess things up.” “People like me don’t succeed.” But they’re not facts. They’re stories. And stories can be rewritten.
This video is part of the Mind Reset series — a 7-day journey to rewire your thinking and reclaim your clarity. Each day pairs a mindset shift with a visual experience designed to evoke emotional insight and transformation.
