Episode notes
Welcome Daily Resistance
- Expect friction: tell yourself "Today, I will meet resistance" and welcome it as part of the day.
- Anticipating difficulty reduces cortisol spikes and prevents amygdala hijacks, so stay composed and solve problems.
Control Your Circle Of Influence
- Focus only on what you can control like actions, choices, and attitude.
- Release uncontrollable outcomes and act intentionally on the things you can influence.
You Are The Thinker
- Your brain produces scary thoughts to keep you safe, but you are the thinker, not the thought.
- Distancing from thoughts (mindful cognitive distancing) lets you observe and choose responses instead of merging with drama.
