Why the Same Thoughts Keep Producing the Same Life
Jay Shetty asks how to break the pattern of negative self-talk and victim mindset in a way that is easy to start. Joe Dispenza lays out the loop of thoughts, choices, behaviors, experiences and emotions that forms a personality, and says a new personal reality requires changing that personality.
- •People think 60 to 70,000 thoughts a day, and 90% repeat the previous day's
- •Same thoughts lead to the same choices, behaviors, experiences and emotions
- •Thinking, acting and feeling make up personality, and personality creates personal reality
- •Most people try to create a new reality as the same personality, which doesn't work
- •Becoming conscious of unconscious habits is where change begins
- 2:42 – 5:44
Hardwired Identity and the Fear of the Unknown
Dispenza explains that nerve cells that fire together wire together, so years of repetition fix an identity, and that emotion from past events anchors people to the past. When people step into discomfort and uncertainty, the body's habit pulls them back to the familiar feeling with excuses.
- •Nerve cells that fire together wire together, and identity becomes fixed by about 35
- •About 95% of the time we run a series of programs
- •Strong emotions from an event freeze a snapshot called a memory
- •Overcoming the emotion releases the anchor to the past
- •Discomfort triggers excuses like being too busy or blaming others, returning people to the familiar
- 5:44 – 7:47
Observing the Program and Sustaining the Changed State
Dispenza says that observing your thoughts, speech and feelings means you are no longer the program but the consciousness watching it. He says the changed state must be sustained throughout the day, and that synchronicities and research results show the method works.
- •Meditate means to become familiar with
- •The more conscious of unconscious programs, the less unconscious the rest of the day
- •Sustaining the modified state all day leads to coincidences and synchronicities he calls breadcrumbs
- •Bond University analyzed brain scans and saw how quickly the community changes brain and heart coherence
- 7:47 – 9:15
Crossing the River: The Death of the Old Self
Dispenza describes the change from old self to new self as a neurological, biological, chemical, hormonal and genetic death of the old self. He says no one is too old, sick or inexperienced to do the work, and that people who go all in at his events see surprising results.
- •Returning to the same reactions means returning to the old self
- •Without a vision of the future you are left with the memories of the past
- •Knowing there is something on the other side keeps people going
- •Age, illness, past or lack of meditation experience are not barriers
- •Participants at week-long events go all in
- 9:15 – 11:09
Why We Cling to the Old Self: Believing in a Future Beyond the Senses
Jay Shetty raises the idea that we change when the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, and asks why we stay attached to an old self we don't like. Dispenza answers that we've been conditioned to define reality with our senses, and says plasticity and epigenetics research support the idea that the brain and body can change to reflect a future not yet experienced.
- •Jay Shetty cites the idea that we change when the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change
- •Dispenza says we are conditioned into materialism and define reality by the senses
- •The brain can change as if a future event has already occurred
- •Emotionally embracing the future daily can signal new genes
- •The person becomes a magnet for their destiny rather than going out to get it
- 11:09 – 13:33
Patience, Practice and Staying in the Unknown
Dispenza says that asking why a goal hasn't arrived signals a return to the old self, and he urges treating the practice as an experiment without impatience or frustration. He says the practice takes learning like any skill, that catching yourself is a victory, and that it is about who you become.
- •Wondering why wealth hasn't shown up means you're back to the old person
- •Defining reality by the senses creates a feeling of separation from the future
- •It is a skill like golf or dancing the salsa that becomes fun with practice
- •Catching anxiety or frustration is a victory, since emotions are a record of the past
- •The goal is less about wealth or health and more about who you become
- 13:33 – 14:40
The Void, Worthiness and Creating from the Field
Dispenza describes a transition period he calls the void, where little seems to happen and people must keep going past the end of their belief. He tells of someone who broke through and says the universe gives us what we think we're worthy of, with much unlearning required to create from the quantum field instead of from matter.
- •The void is a transition period where little seems to happen
- •Most people stop at the end of their belief
- •A woman he spoke with broke through and now has magic around her because she feels worthy
- •Thousands of years of programming say change happens matter to matter
- •Creating from the field requires a lot of unlearning
- 14:40 – 17:40
What to Do After Catching the Emotion: Mental Rehearsal
Jay Shetty asks what to do practically once you catch an anxious emotion that feels real, drawing a comparison to virtual reality. Dispenza recommends reviewing your day, asking where you fell from grace, and mentally rehearsing a new response so the brain becomes a map to the future.
- •Jay Shetty notes that in virtual reality the body reacts to imagined danger as if it were real
- •Dispenza asks himself at day's end how he did and where he went unconscious
- •Close your eyes and rehearse how you'll respond next time
- •Rehearsal installs the neurological hardware that becomes a software program
- •Doing this matters more than email, texts or news and requires shutting off your phone
- 17:40 – 20:24
Self-Regulation, Getting Back on the Horse and Evolution
Dispenza says people who learn to self-regulate take a few breaths, create brain and heart coherence and reconnect to the energy of their future instead of giving their power away. He says the moments of self-correction are the most valuable, and that after enjoying what you create, you go again, which he calls evolution.
- •Taking a minute to breathe and reconnect keeps energy from dropping
- •Early on it takes a lot of energy and awareness to stay conscious
- •A hard day is the time to get back on the horse
- •People with transcendental experiences wouldn't change anything in their past
- •Once the dream is enjoyed and gets boring, do something else, which is evolution
