WHAT IT’S REALLY ABOUT

Dispenza Explains How Changing Your Personality Creates a New Personal Reality

  1. Dispenza argues that repeating the same thoughts, choices, behaviors and emotions forms a personality that produces the same personal reality, so changing your life requires becoming someone else.
  2. He says the discomfort of stepping into the unknown pulls people back to familiar feelings, and that meditation means becoming familiar with these unconscious programs so you observe them rather than being them.
  3. He describes holding the emotion of a future you can't yet see, without impatience or frustration, as a practiced skill, and claims plasticity and epigenetics research supports it.
  4. In answer to Jay Shetty's question about what to do after catching anxiety, he recommends a daily review of where you lost consciousness, followed by mentally rehearsing a new response and using breath and coherence tools to self-regulate.
  5. He closes by saying that the hard moments of self-correction are what make a person who they become, and that once a goal gets boring you should move on to something new, which he calls evolution.

IDEAS WORTH REMEMBERING

5 ideas

Same thoughts lead to the same life

Dispenza says 90% of the 60 to 70,000 daily thoughts repeat the previous day's, creating a loop of choices, behaviors, experiences and emotions that keeps the personality and reality the same.

Emotion anchors you to the past

He says the strong emotion from an event freezes a memory in place, so the key is to overcome the emotion rather than the memory itself.

Discomfort sends people back to the familiar

When people step into the unknown, the body, which he says becomes the mind through habit, pushes excuses like being too busy so they return to a familiar and predictable feeling.

Observing programs loosens them

By becoming conscious of how you think, speak, act and feel, you become the observer rather than the program, and the nerve cells that no longer fire together no longer wire together.

Hold the future's emotion without impatience

Dispenza says to stay connected to the feeling of your future as an experiment, and that frustration or analyzing why it hasn't arrived is the trap of defining reality by the senses.

WORDS WORTH SAVING

5 quotes

So most people are trying to create a new personal reality as the same personality, and it doesn't work. You literally have to become someone else.

— Dr. Joe Dispenza

It's not so much about your wealth or your health or your freedom or your new relationship. It's actually about who you become.

— Dr. Joe Dispenza

Now the brain is no longer a record of the past. Now it's a map to the future.

— Dr. Joe Dispenza

The more conscious you become of those unconscious programs, the less unconscious you'll go in your waking day.

— Dr. Joe Dispenza

So you catch yourself. It's a victory. And if you keep catching yourself, those victories add up.
