 Episode notes 
Mind Is Universal Consciousness
- Jim argues the mind is universal consciousness and our conscious thoughts impress that field to produce our life.
- Your so-called 'subconscious' simply corresponds to whatever consciousness you hold and delivers matching experiences.
Self-Image Forms Early And Runs You
- Jim highlights that our self-image forms by about age eight or nine through socialization and then runs life automatically.
- Those early learned identities become the invisible script that shapes relationships, money, and health.
Plan For Brain Resistance
- Expect biological resistance: disintegration anxiety will try to pull you back when you change and you must plan for it.
- Build a system and consistent practices to outpace the brain's sabotage during identity change.
