Your brain's survival instincts flood you with doubt to keep you safe. The speaker says to recognize this chatter, thank it, and choose possibilities anyway. He calls this shift the key to unlocking your zone of greatness.
You have to say thank you for the map of obstacles. I'm going to take out a map of possibilities. So I am going to look at what are all possible ways that align with my zone of greatness that I could do more of what's in it, right? And this does require a very intentional mental shift because the brain is gonna be there chattering. This isn't gonna work. How are you gonna make this happen? What if this doesn't work out? And you just have to recognize what that is. It's your brain trying to protect you. It's a biological thing that it learned to do, and you have to have the courage to, as I say in my book, talk back to your brain and say, hey, I hear you. Thank you for trying to keep me safe.
