When it comes to creating the lives we want, we’re often told that we need to focus on things like commitment, willpower, positive thinking or goal-setting. But Adele Spraggon, author of the book, SHIFT: 4 Steps to Personal Empowerment, thinks there’s actually somewhere else we should be paying attention, and that’s our mental patterns. Current brain research shows that our decisions are the result of decision-making patterns that were created early in life and yet they continue to set the direction of our lives. But these are only patterns and patterns can be changed.
In this conversation we discuss:
- Understanding how patterned we are as a species and how we came to be that way;
- Being able to see our patterns and rewire them;
- How re-patterning ourselves is different from self-improvement.
To Adele, when we change our patterns, everything changes.
