Yeah.
So that's where it comes from.
Yeah.
Eyebrows to the power of two.
Yeah.
No, it's all great.
I think when it comes to habit change or when we were speaking about the things that we desire in life, a lot of us have this like mind-body separation when in essence like our neurology is not just located in our skull, right?
And so when you're speaking about the place we want things from in life, whether it's the changing of the different habits where we want to create something that is a bit more of a generative drive and what we want to create in life,
I think about how often our plan to get what we want is always informed by past history and information and stimulus we've accumulated in our life, in our surroundings, programmed through culture and the education system.
And that is going to inform us to how and when we think something is going to happen.
I love when you flip it on its head and you focus more on the why you want what you want, that harmonious drive and passion.
And coming from that place of regulation, not only is it, I find, more of an effective way to actually get what you want, it's also just how you would want to live your life.
If you're always in this sympathetic state of fight and flight or freeze, it's just not an enjoyable way to be existing anymore.
What were some of those?
Yeah.
One aspect that's interesting here is how when you start to examine the things that you say you want and the feelings behind them, you examine how much your sense of worth is tied up into all the stories around it.
I know, especially for people that are building the world and achieve and want a successful life, there can be a different place when it's coming from
Like this, there's a completely different energy when you are building for the love of something and because it's contributing to a greater whole versus you're so solipsistically, navel-gazily, like focused on what just you want for you, for your own betterment.
And so I'm curious what your thoughts are on how our worthiness is tied to all these stories we have and how we can go from shifting,
Our desire is to just serve self, to serve a greater whole.
