Don't Make an Operation Out of It (The Sixth Commandment of Self-Brain Surgery)


Listen Later

It's Wildcard Wednesday!

Today, a look at the sixth commandment of Self-Brain Surgery: I must stop making an operation out of everything.

Scripture: Isaiah 30:15

Article about Dr. Peter Jannetta

Book Mentioned:

The Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery
I must relentlessly refuse to participate in my own demise.

I must believe that feelings are not facts, they are chemical events in my brain.

I must believe that most of my thoughts are untrue.

I must believe that my brain is designed to heal (Ryker’s Regular Legs)

I must love tomorrow more than I hate how I feel right now. (No Tomorrow Tax! Corollary: I must not treat bad feelings with bad operations.)

I must stop making an operation out of everything.

I must not perpetuate generational thought or behavioral issues in my family or start any new ones.

I must love my brain and live in such a way as to protect and improve it.

I must believe that what I’m doing I’m getting better at.

I must understand that thoughts become things.
