Stop Rehearsing the Old You

Grand rising and welcome to New Mind, where our intention is clear and is to share information for transformation. This episode is an audio-only episode for those of you who are tuning in on the stream. Thank you for being here. Thank you for making the time. And this topic today is really one that has personally changed my life and also the lives of the hundreds of people that I've had the privilege to work with and to witness their transformation. And it's all about the ability to to prime yourself, prime your future, prime your brain, and understand how it actually works to mentally rewire your brain. And guys, most people wake up and very much are unaware that there's this unconscious rehearsal that is happening at the back end about the same identity every single day. You know, they rehearse the same worries, the same emotional patterns, the same self-image, the same doubts, the same reactions, and even the version of themselves without them even knowing. This is a mental rehearsal that's happening on the back end. Until we have the knowledge and expertise on how do we create that pattern interrupt and how to change that unconscious mind, that unconscious set of programs that is running in the back end, most people then wonder, well, why does nothing really change? And this is specifically for those who are looking to really create change in their life. So I would encourage you to listen till the end because I'm about to give you guys some really powerful tips and knowledge as well as protocols that will help you learn how to rewire your own brain and really make some effective changes. So guys, when we think about priming, when we think about the ability to change our brain, it's something that can be quite intimidating because people think, well, what do you mean I can change the way my brain is? Well, yes you can. Your brain is not hardwired. This is one of the, uh, you know, false Uh, paradigms of, of understanding in the past. We used to think that we were hardwired, and of course modern neuroscience today with the science of neuroplasticity knows that we're not hardwired. In fact, we can change how our brain looks and we can change how our brain operates, and that therefore we can change how we behave, think, and feel. And this has been a groundbreaking, uh, uh, you know, science because again there was an old way of being, an old way of thinking that we were hardwired and we can't change. And this is the biggest evidence today that you have the ability to change anything about your identity, about how you perceive yourself and how you perceive the world, and more importantly, how you behave, because everything is behavioral, which ultimately produces the results in our life. And for those of you who are listening and tuning in, you might think, well, who is Sam and how come he's talking about this topic? So let me introduce myself for the— for our new listeners. I'm— I've been monitoring, uh, on Buzzsprout, our streaming platform. We a lot of new listeners that are joining. So thank you for being here. Thank you for tuning in. So for those of you who are new, my name is Sam Daghash and I'm a master coach and practitioner. I'm a speaker and educator. And for almost a decade now, my work has been focused on helping people recondition the mind and release those old emotional patterns and shift into the identity that matches the future they truly want to create. And one thing I've learned through working with high performers, entrepreneurs, traders, and people who are deeply committed personal evolution is this: real change does not happen only at the level of motivation. In fact, motivation— I always say this— this is just a temporary state, and we don't always have a motivational state that kicks in. And if we rely on motivation, we'll move slowly nowhere. So it happens when we begin working with the unconscious mind, and I call this the operating system. It's the nervous system, the emotions, and the identity that's driving our behavior. And that's why today I want to speak to you guys about the power of priming your mind. Because every single day, whether you realize it or not, you are rehearsing an identity. You're either rehearsing the old self through the same thoughts, the same emotional states, and the same fears and the same reactions, you know. And we always say, you know, well, how come? Like, why is that happening? And I know I should be doing this or that because that's the autopilot, that's the default setting. So You are consciously rehearsing the future self you're becoming, or you are rehearsing the current identity. So you can choose either to rehearse a future you are becoming, meaning the future self, or as most people are aware, they keep rehearsing the same identity and they stay the same personality. And as Dr. Joe Dispenza would say, your personality dictates your personal reality. And this is why it's key to learn How to mentally rehearse a future version of yourself, and when you do that, your brain begins to respond as if the experience is already happening. And that's the beautiful part: the unconscious mind and the brain doesn't know the difference between what's real and possible, what's real and an illusion, right? What's real and versus the inside world. So the brain cannot distinction distinguish between physical experience and internal experience. And this is key, guys, because when you understand that, you understand that you can allow the body to have a full-on experience. in the inner world as if it's happening in the outer world, as in— but that's just through imagination alone, through visualization alone. Uh, so when you repeatedly visualize who you want to become, and this is a practice I coach at my practice at a later stage of alignment, so later in after we align the beliefs and emotional charge and traumas and just getting the identity to where we want, then we coach and we learn how to do the mental rehearsal because that's solidifying all the current new identity and the person you're becoming. So when you repeatedly visualize who you want to become and how you want to show up in the world and how you want to think, speak, decide, lead, create, and respond, you begin firing new circuits in the brain. This is what we call the neuroplasticity that I was talking about earlier, right? And the more you fire those circuits, the more familiar they become. This is very powerful because it's just about repeating the pattern. So the brain— what happens, guys, is the brain begins to form new neural pathways, and the hardware begins to change, literally. How crazy is that? And through repetition, the new pattern starts to become and emerge as automatic. So the more you mentally rehearse, the more you do this formula, the more you start to have an autonomic, automatic response within the brain, and then that becomes the current Identity that you're installing. It's like installing a new software into your system, and this is important because most people are trying to change their behavior without changing the inner program. You know, I'm sure you've heard this. Some people will say, "I want to be more confident. I want to be more disciplined. I want to be more calmer. I want to be more successful." Whatever it is, but internally they are still rehearsing the old version of themselves, and that's why they see themselves through that lens of the past. They don't see themselves through the lens of the future or the person they're becoming. So they carry the same self-image and they still expect some different outcomes, and that's almost impossible, guys, right? So you always go back to the default program. So the gap between their intention and their internal programming is what we're trying to bridge here between you, between, between the two, if that makes sense. So mental rehearsal begins by closing that gap, which is Very, very important. And what you do is you're teaching the brain what the new version of you looks like. You're literally conditioning it. This is what I call it conditioning, right? So you're installing the circuitry of the behaviors your body wants to experience. That's why the feeling is a very important element. And I always say this, I say the emotion is almost like the glue that brings it all together. So the feeling is super crucial. So what you're doing is you're creating an inner blueprint that your body and mind can begin to follow, because the body's language is emotion, right? The body's language is emotion. So it's not enough to visualize alone. And I've had a lot of people come to me and say, well, I visualize and I sit there and I daydream and I do this and nothing changes. Well, of course, because you're just visualizing, you're just creating a little bit of imagery, but you need that elevated emotion. And I'm giving you guys the code here, so pay attention. You need that elevated emotion, and this is key. Because when you combine that clear mental image with an elevated emotion, or you know what happens is you're connecting that state—gratitude, confidence, love, whatever it is, freedom, certainty, abundance—the body begins to emotionally experience the future before it happens, and this is the magic. And this is so powerful, guys, because the body is the unconscious mind. I say this all the time if you've been listening to me for, for a while. The body is the unconscious mind. People think the unconscious mind, which is the greater mind— where's the data? Where's the hard drive? It's the body. That's where everything is stored. That's where everything is stored. So keep that in mind, guys. Your body is the unconscious mind. That's why trauma is stored in the body, which is the unconscious mind. So what you're doing by bringing that future emotionally, and you're connecting with it with the imagery and the feeling, and you're rehearsing that, you're conditioning the body into it. So you're teaching the nervous system, this is who we are becoming. This is what it feels safe now. This is the new normal. And the elevated emotion becomes the glue that bonds the new thought to the body, right? Very important to remember. This is why emotion is so important. And most people struggle with the emotion, struggle with connecting things emotionally, because they don't believe they can. They don't believe they're worthy of it. And that's the block that I do with my work, is first I update the belief systems, make sure they don't have any internal insecurities, so that they can start to feel it in the body. If you can't feel it, you can't experience it. And if you can't experience it, you can't create it. So you have to feel it. So the number one important element is always working on those beliefs. And this is what part of my reconditioning work does, is making sure we first get into alignment. Then you can create magic. Then you can start to, you know, do the priming and apply this in your life. And then you start to see magic start to show up because, A, you started to act, show up in that way. And when you say I'm confident, you mean it, you feel it, and your body is not living in fear or stuck in the past. Your nervous system is capable and it believes and it buys into this word, into this, into this word and this emotion. Same thing with abundance, you know. That is true conditioning, guys. And you're not just thinking about a new future, you are actually practicing becoming the person who can live it. Because what we need to do is, you know, we need to be it now. We need to become it now so it starts to show up in our reality. So we think, act, and feel and behave as the future self now. And then before you know it, that future experience is matching who you are now. That's the magic. It's it's actually not that complicated, but most people don't really get it or don't understand the methodology and what what's the inner work that's required to become the identity and to experience the things they want to experience in life, where their nervous system has the space and the capability of receiving that and and accepting that and becoming and and and being comfortable with it, right? And you know, sometimes I work with people, and this is very normal, and it's just part of their conditioning, where they're visualizing or they're thinking about worst case scenarios. I know this sounds crazy, but most people have anxiety. So they're— what's anxiety? It's the future emotion that, that comes from the future. They're thinking about failure, they're thinking about rejection, thinking about conflict, thinking about not being good enough. And the unconscious mind starts to treat those images and those feelings as instructions. So they move through life rehearsing the future self, but they're seeing a future that's not aligned with them and not what they really want, but they end up experiencing it anyway because they've been rehearsing it subconsciously. But when you consciously rehearse the future self that you want, you know, you're calm, clear, grounded, and powerful, aligned, and in action. You begin updating your inner self-image, and that's what it's all about— updating the inner self-image, updating that inner self-image, which is the identity. So with yourself, when your self-image changes, think about it: your confidence changes, your energy changes, your posture, your decisions, your behaviors, the way you show up. It's just everything starts to change. And your results naturally begin to match the new internal identity. All starts within, guys. You've heard that before. Everything starts within. This is not a metaphor. This is how it works, the formula. And the purpose of priming, guys, is not to sit there and just imagine a better life. No, the purpose of it is to prepare your brain and body to act in alignment with the future you want. So when you act like it, you behave like it, you invite opportunities. Your energy is different. Everything and how you show up, you start to open yourself up to opportunities, to possibilities, and you become, you know, more aware, more self-aware. And you, you start to catch the old patterns faster, and you begin stepping into opportunities easier and with definitely much more clarity. So that's the whole objective, and that's the whole intention behind Learning how to prime yourself and really being intentional with it, because the moment you start to do that correctly— and most people jump into priming without doing the inner work, and this is why most people quit, or most people don't carry on, because nothing changes. Why? Because they haven't addressed the deeper root roots that is in the way— the blocks, like the beliefs, like the emotions, the, the, the, the unprocessed emotions of the past, all of that. Once they've worked on their inner world, which is the key to reconditioning. Then the priming comes in at a later stage. But I'm introducing priming to you because some of you that are listening to this, maybe you don't have limiting beliefs, maybe you don't have any negative emotions from your past, and maybe you're ready to jump into priming immediately. So here you go. I'm literally laying it out for you on how you do it and what's the best model to do it, which is the formula. Right? And honestly, guys, those of you who can connect with it emotionally, can feel it, can believe it, that's where the magic happens. And those of you who can't connect with it, it's just an indicator that there is work that needs to be done within you that you need to address. And there's nothing— you're not broken. It's just part of conditioning. We've all been through it. We all have insecurities unless we work on them, not just ignore them. But those are the blocks. And once you align them, once you feel it in your body, And once you can prime your brain, then the whole thing shifts, and it shifts very quickly, and your life changes very, very quickly. And like I said, I've been a witness to this in my own personal journey. When I said it changed my life, I literally mean it. I'm very grateful. I live a life of freedom. I get to travel around the world. I've got properties around the world, financially abundant. I love what I do. I live in one of the best cities in the world, Dubai. I'm very grateful. I've got a family. I, uh, you know, I, I haven't— I have a thriving, uh, business, another business, commercial business. Um, you know, things are in a very positive light, and that's only because I had to do my inner work and I had to thrive in understanding that that future self exists now, and I can believe in it. I can tap into it. And didn't come easy, guys. I had to do the work. I didn't. I don't always have the right answers, but I had to just figure it out, and I had to get a mentor, and I had to do the inner work. And it's the work that I fell in love with. That's how I got into this world and left a 16, 17-year corporate job that was paying very well, but it wasn't fulfilling. I didn't feel good, and I wanted a little bit more purpose in my life. But I wouldn't be able to do what I do today if I didn't believe it was possible. If I didn't believe that it's possible to create a life of freedom. If I didn't believe it's possible to create a life on your terms, to love what you do. You know what I'm doing right now, recording this podcast. I just finished a client session earlier, working from my high-rise here in Dubai. You know, loving my life, enjoying what I do, feeling healthy. I'm going to go to gym after this and I'm going to come back. I've got a, you know, another business meeting, getting a new product launch. All of these things, it's not work for me. It's fun. It's enjoying. But come speak to me 16 years ago, 17 years ago, or whatever, and you say, you know, this life exists, I'll be like, no ways, that's not possible. I need to stay in the secure job, and how can I live in uncertainty? And that's too scary. And but that was an old identity that needed to die, and I need to work on the belief systems. I need to work on my negative emotions and all the things that I've been through through my childhood. And once I've addressed all of that, that's when I became free, and that's when I started priming. And I got into the science of priming through one of my mentors, and, uh, You know, the experience I had with Dr. Joe Dispenza, who's the king of of priming and understanding the quantum model of reality. It's it's a big element, and of course my practitioner work and practitioner level studies that help me also dive deeper in the neuroscience and neurotransformational tools that enables that to come into effect and actually show the results for people that do the work. You know, and it's it is what it is, guys. You know, if you're listening to this. Podcast and you're not going to do the work, you're not going to want to learn more, you're not going to want to work on yourself, nothing will change. And that's the sad truth, but it's the truth. Nothing will change until you take action and decide to change. I'm going to give you the information. I'm here to share as I always do, because that's my intention with this podcast. The New Mind Podcast is to share information for transformation. And I really mean that when I'm sharing information. It's not just blah blah. It's information. For transformation. If you apply this information that I'm sharing with you, it will transform you. And guys, you don't understand the, the, the, the clients and the students I have over the years that, you know, have literally changed their life, um, and being so grateful to be able to witness it. But everyone had to put in the work. They had to commit. They had to invest in themselves. They had to make time. And that's my message to you, you know. It's just, it's all there. It's all available, but are you willing to make that decision and put in the work? Or just listen to this podcast while you're driving to a job you probably don't like, or doing something, or in the relationship that you want to get out of but you're too afraid of rejection? Whatever it is you're going through, and there's no judgment, there's absolute love here, my tribe that I'm listening to me. But just making you understand that until you decide to make that decision, until you decide to go, you know what, I'm gonna take my first step and I'm gonna I want to dive deeper into this. I want to actually work on my insecurities. I want to, you know, I want to change my belief system. I want to know what what it means to release emotional charge from my past. I want to know that things that I, you know, the same patterns, I want to break them. How do I do that? So all of that is is is is you taking that step, and it's not about being, you know, it's it's you know it's not about having a fantasy. It's just about what future do I want? This is a question you should be asking yourself. What future do I want? And be very clear on what you want. Be very clear on what you want. And when you are clear, and then you understand, okay, so who do I need to rehearse being before that future becomes real? Who— what, what parts of me needs to change? What insecurities I need to dissolve? Because every day, whether you know it or not, you are practicing an identity. And you're either rehearsing the old self or you're priming yourself to the new one. And the more you mentally rehearse the version of you who is already aligned with the future you want, the more your brain begins to wire it, guys. Your body begins to believe it, and your behavior begins to express it. And guys, this is not fantasy. This is training. This is conditioning. This is not really wishful thinking. This is emotional conditioning. And this is how we begin creating for, you know, a form of a new mind. And this is why my brand is called New Mind. You know, that's the intention. I knew that I needed a new mind to create a new life that involved freedom on my terms, that involved doing what I love with purpose, that made me feel good inside my heart, that allowed me to build the New Mind Wellness brand, the products we have in our— and that we are one of the fastest growing in the region now. We're, we're online, and, and we're so— I'm so grateful. I'm super grateful, super, super grateful for, for all of it. And this is really important. And even though as a region we've been going through rough times, there's been wars and uncertainty and a lot, but you know, that's part of the game. And you know, when you are grounded, you know who you are, you know the value you bring to the world, you Continue focusing on what you can control. You don't allow the noise to distract you in life. You don't allow the fears to come in. You you focus on your mind. You focus on your body. You focus on priming yourself to the future you want. It's the law. Everything has to match. So guys, I'll end it here. I want to say thank you for taking the time to watch. Sorry, not watching. Actually, we're listening to this one. It's an audio. I'm shooting this out of my home. Home office. And, um, yeah, I just wanna— I just wanna say to you guys, thank you. Thank you for being here. Thank you for tuning in. Check out the links in our bio here if there's anything that resonated with you. If you feel called to ask any questions about priming or any questions about alignment work, about the inner reconditioning of your mind, feel free to reach out. This is what we do. This is what we love. This is our mission and our intention. So thank you so much for tuning in. Much love and positive energy.
