You have an elastic brain. It’s one of the most adaptable things you own. I’ve been reading The Brain That Changes Itself by Norman Doidge. One idea stood out. Emotion plays a huge role in how the brain rewires itself. Which explains something interesting. Reading your goals doesn’t do much on its own. But reading them and feeling them? That’s different. That’s what creates change. It’s why visualisation works better when there’s emotion behind it. So some of the “self-help” advice might actually be right. Even if most people don’t know why. Personally, I like to understand how things work. Maybe that comes from spending 40 years as a technician. Or perhaps that’s why I was a tech for so long. But most people don’t need to understand the engine to drive the car. They just need to use it properly. Same applies here. You don’t need to understand your brain in detail. Your brain doesn’t change from information it changes from experience actual or visualised. So if you want change, add emotion to what you’re visualising. That’s the lever. Regards, P.S.
