Influence of the Frontostracial Pathway on Income Prediction

Your earning potential may be stagnant due to your brain's Frontostracial Pathway, which predicts future income based on past information. This subconscious prediction mechanism relies on your hidden self-image rather than conscious decisions or desires. Attempting to break out of your financial comfort zone can trigger your brain to resist change and revert to your set point income level. Small changes in thoughts and behaviors aligned with your conscious goals can help retrain your brain for financial success.
