The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

We know that scientifically now that nervous systems co-regulate.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

That's why if you're next to somebody who's all of a sudden getting super anxious,

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

you feel that.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

And so if we can feel other people's nervous systems, you don't think that the universe can feel your nervous system?

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

I think that we can.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

I mean, obviously we can't show that like, oh yeah, the universe felt our nervous system.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

But I mean, I can extrapolate that and believe that for myself.

But then there's also the other component, which is just that your brain can only construct your reality based on the programming we have, like the kittens.

And

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

I've seen it so many times.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

I remember I had someone come to my masterclass where I talked about identity shifting and reprogramming.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

And he said he had been trying to get a job for two years.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

And after two weeks after that class, he got his dream job.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

And it's like, do we think the dream job just magically appeared after two years of searching?

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

Or was it that his brain and nervous system shifted into a state to where he could actually perceive it and get that job, right?

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

And so when I think of the law of attraction, it's really about...

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

changing our internal state and rewiring our brain so that we are actually able to perceive the things that we want and go after them as well because a lot of us subconsciously block ourselves from our goals or the success that we desire because we have whether it be limiting beliefs or subconscious fears even around success and

The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

And I think a lot of our procrastination stems from that as well.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

I mean, I remember back when I was trying to start a podcast before I started, I wanted to start one for so long.

The School of Greatness
The Neuroscience of Identity: Why You Keep Repeating the Same Patterns | Emily McDonald

And I was like, why am I procrastinating on this?
