    7. How and Why to Believe New Things with ADHD- The 6 Tips

    If you have ever asked yourself the question "I want to believe xyz.... but its just not true" then this episode for you. We will dive into how and why to change your limiting beliefs. There are 6 main things you can do to track your belief level and build evidence for the things you want to believe! Not only that, changing your beliefs can be a self-love practice instead of self-harm. Learn More about The Badass Academy Membership: https://www.thebadassacademy.com/ ..... What beliefs are: why your beliefs are made up and changeable and optional. and how to choose to believe things that are useful to you, even if you are so used to believing an old soggy story believe something that's for the negative or really harmful l, and how to believe something new and practice implementing beliefs if you are easily distractible, if you have ADHD or a brain that just likes to disprove every new belief that you implant in… I got you covered. In the Badass Academy, we talk about all this belief change, and in this episode I'm going to give you the most intensive process I can in a podcast to simarize. Now if you are like the lack of immediate tangible evidence, sometimes it can be frustrating! Especially if you have an ADHD brain. Because we are superworm to find dopamine. Which comes from novelty, newness, oddness and accomplishment. shiny object syndrome when things aren't working as fast as we'd like them to can be an extra challenge with ADHD for that exact reason. So a quick note here on how to keep going with your goals when not seeing the tangible results fast enough … I'll get that in a second. And I also want to offer that there is a common idea that discipline, focus, can get us through anything.. and yes that is true, blAnd if you are someone who does get easily distracted, introducing in these tools here of measuring DIFFERENT results, measuring DIFFERENTly leads to greater ability to stay focused, present and engaged in the process. Beliefs are things that are passed down to us. They are things that are modeled to us and they're things that you know we learned as children from our parents and our mentors. And then throughout life the more we practice and absorb those beliefs, the more we create evidence that they are true. because the brain has a confirmation bias so when you have a belief ingrained in you already you are more prone to see evidence for it. Your brain is hardwired to scan for evidence to support that belief . That's why things feel true even if they don't make any rational sense because the more you practice it the more you find evidence for it and emotion is a glue for a belief. Like sometimes you KNOW logically that you should not be upset at yourself for only posting 5x a week because it is not useful… but if that is a thought habit you've been practicing, the emotional response will still be there. Tip two is to use apps. Apps that help you to review and refresh. Dailio and ThinkUp are my two favorites. Because you can write in those beliefs that you're practicing leaving and you can record it in your own voice you can make different categories. if you want to have a category for all-purpose emotion or.The number three is to write down everything that you want to believe. Don't hold back. This is more of a brainstorm. And put a deadline of when you're going to revisit the plan on the calendar and forget about it.I got that idea from one of my coaches, Simone Seol. and What this does is that it allows your brain to just put it into the motherboard of your system. if you will and marinate for a little bit and when you put a deadline with that signals to your brain that this is important. or we're going to come back to it. so pay attention and then the fourth step is to make a spreadsheet of your beliefs.

Deeper Self-knowledge. and so, I wanted to create an episode on these two kinds of results of changes that we can create in our lives and offer why you may want to change the way you see the process of evolution to include more of these intangibles. so, like I said there are two kinds of results. Two kinds of things or goals that you can have in your life. the first kind is the obvious kind which is what I call a creation result. these are tangible super measurable facts real facts about things like amount of money that you have changes in your body composition with weight loss and muscle gain or whatever. the number of people in your social networks. books written books sold courses completed certifications obtained that kind of thing. these are the kinds of results that we tend to get really focused on because they're easy to measure. and I'm all for achieving the thing making it happen it's so fun to see something that you worked so hard on come to fruition. and the amount of time that you spend in the joy or satisfaction of that creation does not last very long. our emotional Baseline is created by the quality and intention of how we are giving ourselves credit for being results. which is the second kind of results. let me say that again. emotional Baseline is created by the quality and intention of how we give ourselves credit for the being results. being results such as changes in day-to-day emotional state like feeling less anxious, more confident, walking naturally taller, having more ease, and smiling at people on the street. raising your hand more often and meetings may be speaking at a slower more intentional tone when you get angry. more often at the people who drive slower instead of getting pissed off. or something that I do frequently is when I noticed my road rage coming in, I make a funny explanation for them. like yeah, I probably just must go pee that's why they cut me off. these are states of being without a special lens or special attention tentacle undervalued or unnoticed. so, let's say you have a goal of saving money. some examples of being results might be planning more intentionally for what you'll spend. noticing when you want to spend money on something that you don't really want. noticing when you feel icky when you do spend money and deciding to release that scarcity and shift into more gratitude for being able to pay for the thing. feeling more comfortable accepting money for your services, or even being more open to receiving in general. being at compliments hugs gifts attention whatever.  it all ties together. may be feeling more, he's talking about finances with your partner. this is the general attitude around money versus the actual number in your bank account.
