You create your reality, and it all starts in your head. Will it be the worst or the best day? It's all up to you.In this episode, Liz and Andresa sit down with Staci Danford to discuss the power of the human brain, and how we could 'reboot' it, and use it to our advantage. She also talks about how we could intentionally fill up our memory bank and practice gratitude so we are less influenced by external factors, and we can live life as we planned it.Staci Danford has a Master’s Degree in Mind, Brain, and Education. She’s a TEDx speaker and has been a GRATITUDE consultant for the ABC News show, Good Morning Texas. She is also the owner and operator of The Grateful Brain, a consulting company that uses Neuroscience to help individuals, schools, and companies understand that: YOUR BRAIN POWER IS YOUR SUPERPOWER… but only if you know how to use it! Staci and her husband Larry live in Azle, Texas. She is the mother of three incredible children and a precious grandbaby who is 6 months old!Tune in until the end to learn how you can take charge of your life by correcting your brain patterns and strengthening your mind. Let's get started!Quotes• “The difference is, I call it casual thanks, just saying thank you. When somebody holds the door open for you, or somebody lets you into traffic and you kind of give them a little happy wave. That's not gratitude. That's just saying thank you. That's appreciation. It's different. But deep gratitude has to activate the chemicals in your brain because it activates an emotional feeling.” (10:53-11:16)• “The secret is to ask your brain why. Why am I grateful? Why am I saying thank you?" (11:27-11:32)• “One of the myths of gratitude is it's the cure-all and it's not. As a matter of fact, the newest research shows that when people force themselves to be grateful, it actually backfires.” (20:40-20:50)• “The greatest discovery of neuroscience in the last 100 years is neuroplasticity, and that tells us that up until the day we die, our brain has the ability to be malleable and change. But how does it change? Repetition. Repetition is the secret to everything” (26:37-26:53)• “The world is not here for your joy and amusement. And sadly, your brain does not care about your happiness. It does not care about you at all… Your brain is your job. You have to make yourself happy. Your joy is your job. And if somebody is upsetting you, you need to know why. The why is the problem not the people.” (29:44-30:14) • “If you understand how to tap into your clients' gratitude language, you could probably sell them anything because people all want to be seen, heard, and understood. That's our brain's innate wiring system. We all want that.” (41:29-41:47)Connect with Staci:Website: https://thegratefulbrain.comIG: @stacidanfordFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/staci.danfordLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/staci-danford-m-b-e-71a03a102/ Resources mentioned: Brené BrownThe Molecule of More by Daniel Z.
