Your brain has just one goal: to escape discomfort. #shorts

The brain only wants one thing, and that one thing is the desire to escape discomfort, even wanting to feel good, craving, desire, lusting, hunger, all of these things. It's wanting to feel good, but it's still uncomfortable. That therefore means that time management is pain management, that money management is pain management, that weight management is pain management. To me, that's incredibly empowering, because that means it's just a feeling. They're not emotions. They're not physiological. Most people don't know the difference between an emotion and a feeling. An emotion is a physiological response. A feeling is the psychological interpretation of that physiological response. And guess what, folks? You can't choose your emotions, but you sure as hell can choose your feelings. And so that's a big part of becoming indistractable, is reimagining these triggers.
