77: Confidence or Survival Motivation: What Helps More?
How does confidence compare to motivation?
We always feel like we need to be more motivated to get more done and stick to our goals, but what if that’s not true? I want to show you why confidence is the key to success, not motivation.
This episode is all about understanding the human brain. Our brains are wired for survival, so if you can understand the basic survival instincts in your brain, you can use them to your advantage.
I’m walking you through how the different sections of the brain function at different levels and the three survival instincts that motivate your actions.
I’m here to help you understand how the brain works, figure out why it’s not just about motivation, and unlock your confidence.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:
- Understanding the survival instincts in your brain
- How the three levels of your brain work
- The three things that motivate your actions
- How your survival instincts influence your motivation
- Overcoming primitive instincts
- Why we need to feel our feelings instead of avoiding emotional pain
- The reason you procrastinate
- Why motivation isn’t what you need
- Prioritizing confidence over motivation
If you’re always wondering why it’s so hard to change your habits or you feel like something must be wrong with you, I want you to know that there’s nothing wrong with you at all. You’re human and that means you’re wired to think a certain way, but you have the power to take control of your thoughts. It won’t always be comfortable, but you can do it.
