It's Frontal Lobe Friday!

Today, the first in a series of looking at each of the Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery in more detail. The first commandment, just like in medical school, is primum non nocere, First No Harm. Self-Brain Surgeons say it like this: "I will relentlessly refuse to participate in my own demise."

Scripture: Mark 12:30-31, Romans 12:1-2, Psalm 19:14

The Ten Commandments of Self-Brain Surgery (Updated 3/8/2024; corollaries coming soon)
1. I must relentlessly refuse to participate in my own demise. 

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

3. I must recognize that most of my thoughts are untrue. 

4. I must love tomorrow more than I hate how I feel right now.  

5. I must not treat bad feelings with bad operations. 

6. I must stop making an operation out of everything. 

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

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

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

10. I must understand that thoughts become things.
