The Jim Fortin Podcast Ep 148: ENCORE Episode: You Are Not In Control, Your Brain Is.
Trying to control your life? Control others? Getting into control in general?
HINT: You have NO control, even if you think you do. Like it or not, your brain does all the “controlling” for you and that’s not a matter of opinion, it’s scientifically proven.
Stop fighting life and stop trying to control life, it’s a waste of time and energy.
In this episode I discuss:
- [2:00] How science proves that you have zero control over your life
- [4:31] How your “habits” actually control you
- [6:25] Why your habits are what they are
- [8:40] How parts of your brain work against each other
- [15:18] Why your emotions are stronger than your thinking
- [20:44] Why your habits are more important than your beliefs
And, like I say over and over…much more.
If you want the next 12 months to be your happiest and best ever then stop thinking about what you want and start focusing on your habits. You don’t get what you want in life, you get your habits and for the most part, CONTROL is a habit.
Transformational Takeaway: You’re not in charge and you have no control, your brain is in control, not “you.”
