 When I think about it, I realize that we have animal brains, right? Tens of thousands of years ago We had to worry about stuff, right? If we were inside of a cave We had to worry that if we were about to leave that cave there might have been a lion out there that would attack us But we're not we're in the middle of New York City right now We're not gonna walk out and a lion's gonna be walking down Wall Street I guess just not go it's not something that we have to worry about anymore So worry and fear and all of those things kept us alive kept our species alive But modern day our brain doesn't have to worry about lions and being attacked and if we're gonna get food and all of those things We have everything that we need and so our that little part of our brain is still trying to find stuff to worry about And if you can take your take yourself out of it and as he says in the power of now watch the thinker Just sit down and act like you're you know your thoughts your worries your feelings are just You're in a movie theater and you're the only person movie theater and you're just watching these things come by on the screen And you look at it and you're like I don't I don't like that thought you don't put any emotion to it You don't judge yourself, but you look at it and go as if you're somebody else just you know watching yourself and go I don't really like that. What would I prefer it to be and then you just replace it with whatever you would prefer it to be and for me that kind of relieves anxiety and fear and worry just knowing that That part of our brain exists, but it doesn't have to I can't control my first thought a lot of the stuff We do is on instinct, but if I don't like my first thought I can always change it So you can't control your first thought you can always control your second thought and if worry pops up. I go do I like that? No, I don't like that. What would I prefer it to be and I just try to immediately place it with with something else
