EP61: The Truth About Mistakes

Our brains LOVE to focus on the negative. The mistakes we make. The miscues we have. And in reality, this is what our brain is supposed to do — protect us so we learn from our errors. But learning from our errors doesn’t mean we stay focused on the mistakes we make.

When you focus on what you did well, or what worked first — before focusing on the mistakes and miscues — you are training your brain to leverage the positives in every single situation. Even the ones where you think you did something wrong, made a mistake, or where you weren’t happy with the result. By going to what worked first, your brain will learn how best to intuit positive thinking in the future.

Positive thinking leads to positive feelings which lead to positive results in your life. Makes sense, right?

Get after it my friends and we’ll see you next week!
