Episode notes

We spend a lot of time on thinking right. We're such meaning seeking creatures that we have to create stories to make sense of the world. And oftentimes we assume that our story of how things went what happened is the truth. But it's not always the truth. It's rarely the whole truth and it's often a distorted truth. In fact the researchers and we got through research in the book but but it's not unusual for 50% of our memories to be false or distorted. Yet we're creating these stories about what's possible based on those faulty memories.

Michael Hyatt shares new research from his new book, Mind Your Mindset

I’ll be the first one to admit that my thoughts – aka the little voice in my head -- have gotten in my way more times than I care to admit.

It’s told me terrible stories like, “You’re not good enough,” and “You can’t do this” – and guess what? Those narratives, even though they’re not true, are all rooted in past experiences I’ve had in my life.

According to research spearheaded by my mentor Michael Hyatt and his daughter Megan, it’s not unusual for 50% of our memories to be false or distorted. And yet we create stories around what’s possible based on those faulty memories.

Now, here’s the good news. It’s scientifically proven that you can engineer your thoughts for success, and in this episode, you’ll hear how.

Michael joins me to talk about performance psychology, neuroscience, and the cognitive science around success, which is all uncovered in his new book Mind Your Mindset.
