The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes. - Marcel Proust
What Is Holding You Back?
Over time, our brain develops biases, beliefs, and attitudes. When our unconscious mind perceives a new situation as being similar to one in the past, those well established biases, beliefs, and attitudes influence our conscious thinking.
We then respond to the new situation in a way that's similar to our past experience. This is a seamless, automatic, programmed process.
What you think affects what you do. When your thinking is affected by unconscious bias, the resulting programmed responses handicap your options and the outcomes. This is what keeps holding you back. Clear thinking paves the way to new behavior and different results.
