Blake Robert Templeton argues the soul runs on autopilot programs, not discipline or grace. Real change happens by identifying those programs and replacing them with emotionally charged statements repeated until they rewire your worldview, emotions, and will.

The soul is run on programs that run on autopilot. The soul is not run on discipline. It's not with grace. These terms become kind of cliché. Yes, we have to have grace, but grace was what took us out of the slave market. Yes, there is discipline. Like, yes, I have discipline to wake up in the morning. Yes, I have discipline to go to bed. Discipline is a piece of the thing, but the soul is not run on discipline. The soul is run on programs that run on autopilot. And so we replace the programs on autopilot. We remove the bad programs. And these programs are things that you say out loud with emotion consistently with repetition. And that's how we reprogram the soul. It's how the soul wakes up and says, oh, wait, hold up, there's a new sheriff in town. This is what we're going to believe now. This is how we're going to run our life. This is what we're going to do. And so that is literally taking the wisdom of God, the ancient wisdom, and literally burning it into our soul with fierce conviction, and that changes everything. Your point of view on life, your emotions, your will, your thoughts, everything that functions in your life.
