"Message the show"We continue our discussion of Nietzschean self-overcoming and explore a range of techniques for changing behaviour that scientific evidence tells us work.You will descend into the world of Nietzsche’s drives psychology and discover that each of us is inhabited by a rabble of unruly drives all competing for expression. Their jostling causes us confusion about what we really want from life and hinders our attempts to get it. You will discover that the noise created by these battling drives is also the basis of all our thoughts and feelings and it even constitutes what we believe to be our unified sense of self.You will learn how these drives are managed and organised through the construction of positive choice architecture to make the right thing to do the easy thing to do. And you will be introduced to a suite of behaviour change techniques that are proven to be highly effective in improving your self-control—including a couple of lessons from the ancient world. Learn to cultivate yourself like a professional and turn that chaotic wasteland into a beautiful, fertile, burgeoning garden. 🎧 Music: I want to be alone, by Jackson C.
