@pabloknowledge i realized my subconscious was quietly shaping my life without me even noticing. these are the 5 things i stopped doing: 1. stopped believing everything on the internet emotionally charged information grabs attention and sticks in memory, making persuasive content feel more convincing than it really is. whenever i see content that isn’t helping me become the person i want to be, i block it, tap “not interested,” and train my algorithm instead of letting it train me. just because someone says something with conviction doesn’t always make it universally true. 2. stopped identifying with what i didn’t want psychologist daniel wegner’s ironic process theory shows that the harder you try not to think about or do something, the more likely it is to come back. instead of saying, “don’t be anxious,” or “don’t relapse,” i focused on the behavior i wanted instead. i focused on where i wanted to go in life rather than where i didn’t want to go. 3. stopped neglecting stress long term stress raises cortisol, making it harder to think clearly, regulate emotions, and make good decisions. motivation isn’t enough. i had to calm my nervous system first. relaxation became a requirement. 4. stopped listening to music without intention repetition strengthens neural pathways, and emotional experiences are remembered more easily. when lyrics are paired with a catchy melody, they become easier to remember and reinforce through repetition. so i chose music that supported the person i wanted to become. 5. stopped thinking catastrophically the brain constantly filters information and prioritizes what it expects to find. when i expected problems, i noticed more problems. when i started expecting opportunities, i noticed more opportunities. changing your expectations changes what your brain pays attention to. what are some things you stopped doing? comment below🙌🏻 & follow @pabloknowledge for more subconscious reprogramming, de-stressing and drug recovery content! #Neuroplasticity #Psychology #SelfImprovement #DrugRecovery #MentalHealth
