Our brains develop ruts, which are well-worn neural pathways that evolve over time as our brains make associations.
These help you make decisions more quickly and with less effort. However, there are risks associated with this. If your past influences have been less than optimal, sometimes this can impact your effectiveness as a trader.
It’s time to break out of these ruts and untrain your brain, then re-train it in the direction of your choice.
In this interview you’ll hear from Louise Bedford and Rik Schnabel from www.lifebeyondlimits.com.au.
Rik is known as the ‘Brain Untrainer’ and is the best-selling author of multiple books based on his extensive Neuro Linguistic Programming experience. Louise and Rik discuss the ways you can untrain your brain and how to get yourself out of a neural rut.
Questions we discuss
- Is it possible to retrain your brain’s patterns and habits
- Does IQ serve as a determining factor for success?
- What role does age play?
- What exactly are meta-programs, and how can they be a valuable tool for traders?
- Why is it essential to establish your core values when engaging in effective trading?
- Is a sense of purpose a fundamental driver of success?
- Metacognition, the ability to analyse one’s own thought processes, is a unique human capability. How significant is it for traders to engage in introspective thinking about their thought patterns?
- How can traders overcome FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) and not be intimidated by the success of their peers?
- You’ve mentioned prioritizing passion over money. Does this mean traders should not focus on financial gains?
