So if I have an automatic negative emotion or feeling, what does a Hollywood actor or actress do when they say to them, okay, scene two, take one. I want you to be angry in this role. And the actor actually goes, what do you mean I can't go over there today? I want to go over there today. And they say, okay, act two, scene two, be super happy about it. I said, wow, I get to go there today.

I'm so freaking happy. What about act two, scene three, be really, really sad? I can't believe I've got to go there today. You can flip emotions on demand. It's just turning on a state. in your brain.

Now, what happens with a lot of people is, when they get into, let's say, a negative emotional pattern or a negative thought pattern, they hold on to it, and it hijacks them, and then they reinforce it.

And they think about what they don't want, and they feel what they don't want, and they think about what they feel, and they feel what they think about, and they reinforce the pattern, and now it becomes a habitual pattern. Instead of saying, okay, I had a shitty childhood. I was traumatized. I was this. I was that. She did this to me. He did this to me. I lost this. I failed here. Great. Okay.

Welcome to life. Now, how do I flip the switch? How do I flip the switch? Now, the control goes back to you. And if we give the control to our thoughts, we're victims of it. If we give our control to our emotions, we're victims of the emotions. If we give our control to the past, we're victims of the past. And all we have is the present moment.

And so now we can say, let me use my brain since I'm not my brain. Let me use my brain. I always have one on my desk to remind me. It's like a $100 billion organ that I own. I don't owe any money on this. It's mortgage-free. Now, I just want to learn how to use it better. And we've built quantum computers for hundreds of billions of dollars that don't do what yours and my brain naturally does.

And contrary to most people's beliefs that don't know this, functionally, every brain works the same. Functionally, every gas car works the same. Functionally, every electrical car works the same. Functionally, every bike or trike works the same. So functionally, they work the same. Is it possible for me to be a better driver? Now we enter my domain of, well, how can I use my brain better?
