Not long ago, we talked about fitness & health in one of the Deep Talk rooms on Clubhouse. That raised the question of why it’s so hard for us to turn certain intentions into lasting routines. There are certainly many possible explanations for that. Much more interesting, though, was the realization that once we understand how our brain works, we’re able to implement certain things with ease. Various studies show that with the “right” mental training, you can actually build muscle too — without, figuratively speaking, lifting a finger. And the results are striking: in one study, the index finger was trained. The result showed that muscle growth from real training was 20%, while mental training alone still achieved 16%.

This and comparable studies prove that with the right mental training, we can achieve far more than we’re often aware of. For instance, the power of our thoughts can also train joy, anger, grief, and much more, and transfer it across different contexts. So it’s not the case that only matter can change matter. That may contradict Newton’s law, but it has since been proven that the structure of the brain can be changed through the power of positive thoughts.

That’s why it makes sense to engage with brain research and use its insights for yourself. It’s often the small details in how you apply them that make the difference between success and failure. That’s why today I’m happy to share a video with you, in which — based on findings from brain research — we look at how to visualize effectively, develop new skills, and achieve the results you want through the power of your thoughts.

Take a look and try it out. You’ll find it in my YouTube playlist called The No.1 Habit Billionaires Run Daily.

Note: You probably won’t get everything right away — it takes some practice, but you’ll get better day by day if you train yourself and your brain regularly.

Have fun trying it out, and gathering new insights and experiences!

Be there live when we reflect on topics like this every day on Clubhouse, and feel free to jump in actively too. Here’s the link to the Deep Talk Club on Clubhouse.

3 Myths Debunked – When Science Creates Knowledge! | Dr Yasemin Yazan

When Science Creates Knowledge!

Unfortunately, there is a lot of false knowledge on the market. Be it because, for example, research results are misinterpreted or false causalities are made, or because they are transferred to other contexts that were not even the subject of the study.

We pick 3 myths and show what science already knows:

- Why Maslow's hierarchy of needs is not a reliable basis for motivation

- Why personality tests are questionable as a basis for personnel decisions

- Why a quota is needed as an effective measure against Unconscious Bias
