The 3 Keys for Unleashing Momentum with Jim Kwik

How can you work through the pain, anger, and resentment from childhood caused by the adults in your life?As many of you know, I had a teacher call me the boy with the broken brain. What was a comment intended to keep other kids from picking on me instead became a hurtful label that took years to overcome. Every time I couldn’t do a task or assignment; it reinforced the idea that I was broken.This is a topic that is very personal for me. I’ve had to work through these harmful labels on a personal level before I was able to help others do the same.Adults needs to be very careful with their external words because they often become a child’s internal words. Every time that child faces an obstacle, those words will become reinforced. If you have negative labels you’re working to overcome so that you can move into a place of healing and transformation, this episode is for you./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.

What if the key to navigating uncertainty and making truly aligned decisions lies not just in logic, but in an ancient wisdom tradition?I was fascinated to learn from Hrund Gunnsteinsdottir about 'Innsæi: Heal, Revive and Reset with the Icelandic Art of Intuition’, which she beautifully describes as 'the sea within.' This isn't about vague hunches; it’s an effective way to harness unconscious information for better choices and actions, especially when facing the unknown. We delve into how you can cultivate this 'inner compass'—learning to 'see within' to distinguish intuition from biases, and 'see from the inside out' to navigate life's turbulence. Discover why your attention is the gateway to this power and how simple practices, like keeping an attention journal, can help you regain ownership of it. You’ll also understand the 'two rhythms' of knowing when to switch between analysis and intuition, transforming how you approach problems and become more prepared for the unexpected. It's about developing this innate skill, like a muscle, for long-term success and a deeper connection to your own inner genius./ / / Are you ready to take the next step on your brain optimization journey? / / /Choose your own adventure.
