The Cycle of Deceptive Brain Messages

The aspect of your attentive mind

that knows what you are thinking,

can see deceptive messages and

unproductive habitual patterns of behaviour for

what they are and where they come

from. Dr Jeffrey Schwartz

NEW HABITS

Know what is happening, consciously recognise a deceptive message or an unproductive habit of behaviour for what it is.

Choose how to think and behave. Disrupt the old patterns by reframing your thinking and behaviours to align with your (individual and collective) goals.

Be deliberate. Practice the new thinking and behaviours by focussing your attention and taking action to create new habitual pathways.

You can consciously wire productive patterns of habitual thoughts and behaviour to manage and lead your self and organisation to achieve more effective outcomes
