Ep 88: Q & A - I Keep Trying To Change My Identity But I Fallback Into My Old Patterns. What Causes This?

Start Your Transformation Now


If you’ve tried to change before and failed you’ll love this short episode. It’s not your fault, it’s your brain and you’re not getting the changes you want because you’re working against your brain’s natural function.


It’s epidemic…people trying to change yet they get little to no change in life and then they usually become more and more frustrated and just give up.


In this episode I talk about:

  • [2:44] Habits and episode # 83
  • [3:19] Subconscious reprogramming and episode # 80
  • [3:59] How all habits and patterns come from your reptilian brain
  • [6:55] Why your brain craves predictability
  • [10:06] Why you get anxious when you try to change
  • [15:59] And, why change is so hard

  • In this episode, I refer you back to a few others and then share the simple attitude you must embrace to create long term change in life.


    Transformational Takeaway: 1) Your reptilian brain loves predictability, 2) Your reptilian brain creates anxiety as a survival mechanism and, 3) Your old habits are simply that, habits.
