Alright, let's go ahead and dive in. What I'm going to be talking about today is breaking your patterns.

But I want you to understand kind of how your brain works and why it works the way that it does.

Here's what most people do when they live their lives. They do something, they react to something in a certain way or they act in a certain way or they think a certain way or they have a certain emotion.

And they're like, man, I hate that I think that way. I hate that I am that way. I don't like that I think that way. But that's how I am.

And a lot of people never really understand they can change it. Because your life, everything that you do is based on a part of your brain that's called the automatic brain.

And the automatic brain, just so you have an idea, is your fast thinking automatic, as soon as something happens, boom, you think of something.

As soon as somebody does something, boom, you react. As soon as somebody says something, boom, you get a certain emotion, you get a certain thought, you get something, that's your automatic brain.

Why do we have our automatic brain? We have our automatic brain because of act number one, your brain is not designed to keep you successful or make you happy.

This is designed to do one thing and one thing only. It is designed to keep you alive.

So that being said, and this is why I like to teach how to get past this is because if you can understand that your brain is only designed to keep you alive, then you can understand that there's certain things that you do, certain patterns that you've created over your life, and you can reverse them if they are not the ones that you like.

So what do I mean by a pattern? Let me give you an example. A lot of people like to say, I'm an emotional person. This is just an example, right?

Some people out there, let me ask you a question, are you an emotional person in your head, out loud, whatever it is, you can answer yes or you can answer no, are you an emotional person?

Okay, now that you've got your answer, let's deal with just emotion as something that we're going to talk about.

Okay, here's the deal. If you said yes, that in this isn't just an emotion, you could be anything. This could, you know, this could be anything besides emotion as well.

So if you're not emotional person like this doesn't relate to me, it does just in a different sense.
