Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It's not just one lemon.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It's abundant with lemons.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And we actually used to have a lemon tree in our backyard as well, and they'd be all on the ground, and our dog would be running and getting them and eating them.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

But yeah, and so after that, I started to realize, no, actually it is in our true nature to be abundant.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And so that's kind of...

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

where your phrase that you just brought up, like, it's the root of all evil, it kind of shifted for me, and I now look at it as it really is a tool, right?

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It really is a tool, and what you do with that tool very much is up to the person, and it's sort of like testosterone.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Just thinking like from scientific standpoint, where they've actually shown that more testosterone, at least in animals, it doesn't necessarily make animals more aggressive.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It just amplifies their nature.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And so it didn't make them more aggressive.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Right.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It's just like some of them became more loving.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And so money kind of works that way, too, where you give someone more money.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It doesn't necessarily make them evil.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It can make the right people better able to help others.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And so, yeah, just kind of reprogramming my mind.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

And then after that, after realizing, I remember I heard on a podcast once, like, it's abundant.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

It's everywhere.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Go to the grocery store and look around.

Know Thyself
E192 - Emily McDonald: The Neuroscience of Transforming Yourself

Every single person, you know, has money coming from a different place.
