episode 28: Filter For Your Brain - Reticular Activating System
In this episode John explains that he recently took an extensive course on NLP – neurolinguistic programming. It’s the science and how you say things. And as part of the science, John learned more about the reticular activating system. That’s the filter for the brain. And here’s what’s interesting. At any second, when you are awake you have 2 million bits of information coming at you. 2 million every second. But your brain can only process 116 bits of information per second. So the brain needs a filter. It needs a nightclub bouncer to determine what gets in and what doesn’t get in. And what your RAS let’s in is based on what you tell it is important to you. In this podcast John and Kelly explain a powerful concept. That what you let into your consciousness determines the person you become. That would make sense. But most people are not giving their RAS a clear understanding of what’s important. Therefore things get into their consciousness that are not helpful. In this podcast John mentions that people’s fears are important to them. Therefore if they embrace those fears they will bring more into their consciousness. If they have addictions, those are important people. And more that will be brought into their consciousness. Towards the end of the podcast John and Kelly discuss their 12 minute day technique that gives their reticular activating system immense clarity regarding what’s important. And how powerful it is when you combine the use of that 12 minute day technique to control one’s unconscious daily actions.
About the Hosts:
John Mitchell
John’s story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn’t as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there’s a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.
When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.
His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.
John’s technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.
