Human beings, obviously, we all process things differently, and we're clearly never taught any of this in school.

I'm assuming, again, this is my experience, that there are consistent things that really affect people and that perhaps for there even to be a self-doubt profile.

When I'm thinking about what you've seen from those individuals that have all the potential in the world, does something really stand out to you that just across the board that you've seen, you know, there's 7 million people that have taken your courses.

Is there one thing that really stands out?

It's like a conditional thinking, which is totally opposite.

So that's what those that succeed do, which is totally opposite.

If it didn't work out.

The brain prefers certainty over accuracy.

It does.

Which is fascinating.

How does that relate to catastrophizing?

And then that becomes very distracting and would take people off course from taking the next right step.

Yes, it is.

You know, we don't typically do that culturally because people will say you're going to manifest something completely.

I mean, it makes a lot of sense.

On one hand, it totally empowers the person and improves their capacity or their belief in themselves.

What does that mean?

Do you ever worry?
