Episode #7 - Narrative, Attention, & Socratic Method (Empowering Questions)

We discuss how important it is to have control of our own narrative. We also discuss how cognitive psychology studies reveal that we notice things only when we purposefully focus our attention on looking for them.   We also look at what questions we are often asking ourselves, how our brain seeks to answer questions, and how we can utilize that to our advantage to ask more empowering questions to create better results in our lives.   References: The Monkey Business Illusion (video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGQmdoK_ZfY Book: Chris Chabris, Daniel Simons.
