Like, it works synergistically, and either you know how to deliberately turn on or off the different parts of your brain, like you know how to turn on your car, you know how to put it into park or reverse or drive or neutral, you know how to turn on your radio, you know how to turn on your headlights, you know how to use the gas and the brakes, you know how to fill your car up with gas.

Shouldn't you at least know some of the basics of how to use your brain better, since it's worth $100 billion? So, part... I'll continue where I left off before. So now, in the state of awareness of the situation, regardless of why it happened, we want to focus our Einstein brain, the CEO, executive director of our entire lives, on solution-oriented focus. And so, okay, great.

What can I do about it? What are the strategies? What are the tactics? I'm going to go to ChatGPT or Claude or Mistral, and I'm going to put the problem and the situation into ChatGPT. I'm going to ask it to act as a PhD-level expert in this type of problem.

I'm going to ask it to analyze it for me, give me a step-by-step options of what I could do, then bring me a step-by-step plan of how to navigate through this. Could I do that in five or less minutes? Yes. So even if you don't have the knowledge or the skills, there are tools available right this second to help you overcome mental, emotional, physical, strategic obstacles that are in your way.

But you may not be skilled at how to do that. Or you may not have that as a default habit of this is what I can do now. And here's the question that we want to always ask ourselves.
But you may not be skilled at how to do that. Or you may not have that as a default habit of this is what I can do now. And here's the question that we want to always ask ourselves.
If I have a financial problem right now, if I have a business problem, a sales problem, a marketing problem, an employee problem, a husband problem, wife problem, a kid problem, can I, if I was serious and committed to a resolution, can I right now, like literally in five minutes, come up with some solutions? Yeah. Yeah.
If I have a financial problem right now, if I have a business problem, a sales problem, a marketing problem, an employee problem, a husband problem, wife problem, a kid problem, can I, if I was serious and committed to a resolution, can I right now, like literally in five minutes, come up with some solutions? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, so solutions exist, but they don't exist for the people who are focusing on all the negative stuff and allowing their feelings to control their thinking and their focus and their awareness and their whining and bitching and complaining about the problem more than they're focusing on the solution when the solution exists. And this is what I call responsibility.

So you're either reacting or you're responding. Most people react, react, react, react, react, react, and reinforce. React, reinforce, and recreate more of the same. And you may not be aware that you're doing it, but that is what you do because we repeat patterns. Why am I learning this at 43? because we have a stupid system, but that's why I started my company, Neurogym.

My Neurogym, you know, is to help people understand that most of us, like, listen, my father was an alcoholic gambler, beat the shit out of me and my brother, not my sister. Money, like, he was no money at the end of every day because he'd go gamble it. I learned money was scarce. I learned, you know, that we were, you know, we were, we always had food on the table.

We always had roof over our heads, but my parents always fought about lack, scarcity, limitation. We were conditioned and trained by teachers in school that didn't understand this or grade school, high school, university. And we never have learned about the latest advancements in the last 10, 15 years
