006: Unlock the Secrets of the Brain— How to Get the Results You Want with Liam Naden

"Not only is the brain the most powerful machine that exists, but it will literally give you everything you want if you know how to use it." -Liam Naden The human brain is much more than just a collection of neurons firing away at each other— it is also the one responsible for what we do and how we do it. The way we think and act is largely determined by our brains' ability to process information in a way that allows us to identify patterns, make predictions based on those patterns, and then act accordingly. The fact that this happens is mind-blowing—but the fact that we can control our own minds is even more incredible!  In this episode, Ted sits with speaker, writer, teacher, and researcher Liam Naden. Liam has been researching how to improve quality of life—our decision-making, problem-solving,and generally how we live life. He discovered that the key to unlocking our full potential is in the proper understanding of how the brain works and how to use it the right way.  Listen in as Ted and Liam discuss how powerful the brain really is and how we can harness this power to manifest what we want in life. They also talk about the right and wrong ways of using the brain, the four parts of the brain and how each one functions, the truth about goal-setting, and how to move past the fear and towards thriving mode.    Connect The Modern Man: Website Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube   Highlights:  01:28 It's All in the Brain 04:12  The Wrong and Right Way to Use Your Brain 08:29 The 4 Parts of the Brain and Their Function  17:21 Fear Does Not Motivate 22:54 The Truth About Goal-Setting 28:44 Problems Cause Harm 32:05 The Way to Switch Your Brain Quickly
