Q: What are the most common reasons I lack control over my brain?

A:The most obvious reason that people lack control over the brain is that they simply don't believe that they have control. Many people speak of the brain as though it were a biomechanical machine that simply follows the ebb and flow of hormonal fluctuations. I believe that this is a very shortsighted, incomplete image of the brain.

Instead, I think that you can control your brain and not be controlled by it. This belief is the starting point for genuine mastership over your brain. Your brain is a powerful rocket ship that can take you anywhere you want to go in life, but you must first put yourself in the pilot's seat. The thoughts you produce and emotions you feel do not need to be haphazard and random, potentially distracting you from your intentions. You can learn to process information in a clear, focused, and produtive way. Of course, it takes some time and practice to become a genuine pilot who can control your brain well, but you can do it!
