Andrew Huberman the other day said, a psychologist or a psychoanalyst told him, it's all internal.
Meaning,
You win a race, no one comes over and sprinkles dopamine on you.
You generate those feelings internally.
And when you realize that you're also generating the fear, the anxiety and all that shit is self-induced.
The same way that those emotions start to get embedded in your brain, whether you like it or not, you can also control that experience and be like, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm not afraid.
They better be afraid.
Even if you don't believe it, if you repeat it enough times and act on it, once you start acting on it, it's a reality.
You would never know I'm scared.
I'm standing on the start line of every race, wishing I was anywhere but there, scared shitless.
But outwardly, I'm like, you're all dead.
I'm killing everyone.
Even though I love everyone, but that's the process I have to go through because I know I'm not special.
But I know that the things that I can control, most people don't know how to do that.
But that's available to anyone.
Well, I didn't know I was nervous, but I wasn't going to show anyone else.
I was nervous.
Cause like people are animals where people wear animals the same way.
I look at my kids sometimes playing.
