someone's watching this they have a thing that something they want to change
and it's not it's not sticking then maybe it's not it's the environment
maybe you check about your habits but maybe it's your beliefs and your values
some people will not get themselves to read every day because they don't value
reading every single day right some people won't work let's say the behavior
they want change is you know we did a podcast on how to remember names I could
teach them step by step on how to remember the name of most people that
they meet yet they won't do it because they don't value it or because that's
not important to them or they don't believe that they can write just like we
talked about earlier saying your brain is like a supercomputer and you know
yourself talk as a programmer run so if you tell yourself not go to memory names
you will not remember the name the next person you meet pitchin program your
supercomputer not to they don't have a belief that enables that so when I say
all behaviors believe driven if you want to do this behavior whatever it is
journal whatever it is then you need a belief that allows that to happen.
because you that's the program that allows so how do you get that belief
because you're gonna feel like you're faking it all right that's where most
people stop right they they think okay I get it I hear what you're saying that if
I am able to shift my belief that I can get a different behavior but I don't
believe it so now I'm just sort of faking it how do you help people
overcome it right and so you mean so some people approach it right they know
that it's quote where they fake it to they make it right and so my thing with
belief is like when I do trainings in groups or online my favorite way of
changing the belief is getting them to do something they never thought they
could do because it opens up another possibility right so so for example in
1954 Roger Bannister he broke the four-minute mile right and so which is
amazing right throughout human history nobody can run a mile in less than four
minutes now if you if you look into it how he was able to do it is he would
visualize himself crossing the finish line looking at the clock and it says
359 because he knew that success is an inside out process that first it had to
happen in here in order for happening out there
right um dr. Wayne Dyer has the famous phrase where it's not
oh I'll believe it when I see it it's like I'll see it when I believe it
because it's the opposite right and so yeah I've always liked modeling the
outliers where most people kind of just like kind of dismiss them I was like
well what's what's going on there that loves this person to get this kind of
results right and so with Roger Bannister he saw it in here be able to
produce it outside just like any innovator or inventor right or any
creator for it but what was interesting is after that would happen nobody could
do it from the beginning of humanity all of a sudden one person does it what
happens after that everybody yeah everyone starts doing it then so that's
the thing now what happened was there big change that year and you know
training methodology and nutrition or know who's a change of belief right
because the belief back then was if you ran a mile less than four minutes not
only would you die it was your heart would explode in your chest and like
think about like that would and I'm a runner right that would keep me not just
running that would give me for money for me that would get me from running period
right right and so my thing is like that was a change of a reference I was just
took up a belief so my goal with people and when it comes to learning is get
themselves to do something they never thought they could do and then it opens
up another possibility it literally opens up their their nervous system for
something what else could be possible like when I grew up I you know we didn't
have any we had no money right I had no education because I was a very learning
challenge I didn't know any anybody right so I feel like it's not when
people are that's where they'll go though when they when they hit them as a
gap stop gap between where they are where they want to be they'll say oh I
don't have the money here and all the education around the intelligence out of
the network or anything else like that you know what you know as for all
incredible success you've had and the value created for the world is that it's
not about resources right because we know a lot of people who who didn't have
any resources that we were able to impact the world
it's about our internal resources and what I'm saying is optimizing our
environment optimizing our behaviors or capabilities or beliefs and our values
and our identity right that at the highest level our identity because you
can't just change your belief or your values or your behavior even if you
don't believe you're that kind of person and that's why I kind of always go to
the superhero mythos because I want people that get to claim that identity I
call it the superhero you that version of ourselves that we're not waiting for
Superman or Batman or Wonder Woman it's like you are Wonder Woman you are Batman
you are Superman it's just we we have to commit ourselves to be able to tell me
