Okay, today I'm going to talk about how to change your brain so that you can change your habits.

Now let me explain something. There's a part of your brain called your automatic brain which is the part of your brain that usually functions about 90 to 95% of the time throughout the day.

I'll give you an example. If you've ever driven home from work or from someplace that you're very familiar with and you get home and your first thought is how the hell did I get here?

You don't remember driving because you were so on autopilot. So your automatic brain is what your brain develops your autopilot so that it doesn't have to use as much energy because the more that you have to think about something, the more energy your brain consumes.

Now just so you know your brain consumes more energy than any other organ in your body.

About 20% of your energy on a daily basis is just your brain.

And two thirds of that is actually just your thinking, your neurotransmitters firing from one to another and sending signals from one place to another.

So that's how your brain works. So why do habits, how do habits fit in that and how can we get past it?

Well here's the first thing that you need to realize. You can reverse any pattern or any habit that you have but you should never identify yourself with a pattern or habit.

You should never say I am lazy. I am a procrastinator because that is you identifying with that.

It is just that sometimes you are lazy and sometimes you are a procrastinator. That is a habit or a pattern and that can be overcome.

So as far as the way the brain works just so you have an idea, if you look at any cord that plugs into a wall on the outside of that cord is a rubber,

it's just rubber on the outside of that cord on the inside of it is a copper wire that sends the electrical signal.
