E18: How to Fix Your Ancient Brain

from Mental Muscle Podcast · host Ryan Howard

I know... the title of this episode sounds a little contradictory. How can your brain be ANCIENT? Well actually, it’s because it has been evolving through the generations for hundreds and thousands of years. But the way it functions, how it remedies problems, and it’s techniques for trying to “protect you”, can be VERY outdated. In fact, it’s worse than that. If you’re not careful, you will permanently forfeit your ability to change your life for the better. You’ll be doomed to repeat the same life, for the REST of your life. Why? Because 95% of our mind by the time we’re 35 functions like a computer program. Check this episode out, and find out how to reprogram your brain for success, joy, and fulfillment.
