Get your brain out of your own way.

#2

Our brains can sometimes get in the way of our experiencing the world. We must learn to get them out of the way.

#3

Get your brain out of your own way.

#4

You must train yourself to get your brain out of your own way.

#5

We must accept that getting our brains out of our own way is a necessary process. Now that we know that the brain is not a fully-fledged computer and cannot be programmed to solve problems, but instead is dedicated to survival and reproduction, let’s look at how we can train ourselves to break habits and change old ways of thinking.

#6

The human brain is not a computer that can be programmed to solve problems, but rather is dedicated to survival and reproduction. We must learn to get our brains out of our own way.

#7

Get your brain out of your own way.

#8

Brahms was able to deliberately enter a deep state of concentration and receive his musical compositions, which he then clothed in the right forms, harmonies, and orchestration. -> We must learn to get our brains out of our own way. We must train ourselves to break habits and change old ways of thinking.

#9

To change your habits, you must first recognize them for what they are: unwanted behaviors. Then, you must recognize that you cannot control them, and that they are a result of your brain’s survival-and-reproduction mechanisms. Finally, you must accept that you cannot change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#10

You must train yourself to get your brain out of your own way. You cannot control your habits, so you must realize that you can’t change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#11

You must get your brain out of your own way. You cannot control your habits, so you must realize that you can’t change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#12

You can train yourself to get your brain out of your own way. You cannot control your habits, so you must realize that you can’t change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#13

You can’t control your habits, so you must realize that you can’t change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#14

The mainstream scientific assumption that everything we can do or experience is a result of physical laws, physical reality, and the resulting physical abilities of the body and brain imposes a built-in limit to what people believe they can do and perceive.

#15

You can't change your habits, so you must accept that you can't change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them. You must realize that you can’t control your habits, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#16

You can't change your habits, so you must accept that you can't change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them. You must realize that you can't control your habits, and instead work to change your reactions to them.
Insights from Chapter 2

#1

The belief that everything is the result of physical laws and the resulting physical abilities of the body and brain imposes a limit on what people believe they can do and perceive.

#2

Scientific materialism's influence on psychology and neuroscience has meant that the two disciplines that enjoy the warmest embrace and receive the most funding are those that can base their practices and research on measurable physical phenomena.

#3

You can't change your habits, so you must accept that you can't change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them. You must realize that you can't control your habits, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#4

Your brain is made up of billions of neurons, and each neuron can pass an electric charge to another neuron through the synapse between them. Neurons can also release chemical neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, which take chemical messages to other neurons in the brain and body, respectively.

#5

You can't change your habits, so you must accept that you can't change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them. You must realize that you can't control your habits, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#7

The materialist vision of how the biomechanical coordination of neurons, neural circuits, specialized brain areas, and unconscious brain processes is achieved is often compared to how a supercomputer works. In reality, the brain is a collection of billions of neurons and each neuron can pass an electric charge to another neuron through the synapse between them.

#8

you can't change your habits, so you must accept that you can't change them, and instead work to change your reactions to them. You must realize that you can't control your habits, and instead work to change your reactions to them.

#9

Your brain is constantly changing and rewiring itself to support whatever you do. Repetition creates or improves neural connections in the brain.

#10

The brain is not as hardwired for specific functions as was once believed.
