Anchoring to What You Know | Ep #26

When faced with decisions, our brains automatically point out all the things we don't know, all the reasons it won't work, and why we should be afraid. In this podcast, you'll learn why starting with what you do know will help you solve what you don't.

For as long as humans have existed, our primal response to any kind of threat or danger is to get defensive, confused, and go looking for safety outside ourselves. Although this has kept us alive, it is outdated and does not ultimately help us create the kind of life we want on purpose.

In this episode, you'll learn in more depth why your brain automatically takes you to negative thinking, and how to override it with thoughts and beliefs that help you move forward. Remembering what you know first helps bring the brain back to a grounded, calm place, and can serve as a filter for all of the fears and doubts that follow.
