INSTANT CLASSIC ALERT!
If you really want to know why it is so hard to change our habits, and you REALLY want to know what to do differently, and exactly HOW, this is the episode for you. Jim Fortin is a neuroscience- focused expert on how our brains work (and work against us), on habit formation and on the real secrets to creating the identity that we want.
Do not pass go. Listen to this, rewind and listen again.
We speak our lives into existence. - Jim Fortin
What We Talk About:
Why we struggle making change in our lives even when we REALLY want to
How to retrain your brain to make lasting change by acting the way you want to be....NOW
How your "lizard brain" manages your habits and is focused on keeping you alive and safe - not on self-improvement
The power of neural patterns in forming habits and how to (finally) change them instead of fighting against them
How to change the stories we tell ourselves in order to change how we live, how happy we are, and - truly - WHO WE ARE
The difference between dismiss and ignore when it comes to breaking bad habits (one works, one does not)
You can change a long term habit in an INSTANT. Really - we share how.
Why Jim says habit trackers are a good idea.
Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) - the psychology of subjective experience
We DO what we ARE.
I can only do what I am, and I cannot do what I am not.
