Marriages have been full of disappointment when spouses realize that working to change their spouse is impossible which often leads to separation and divorce. Much like marriages, individuals feel that if they could change those around them to be more like themselves that life would be easier. This has been true throughout history but Paul has a very different take on the change that needs to take place in order to be able to make a friend. In the midst of persecution that often lead to death, Paul still encourages individuals to love their persecutor.

While working on her Ph.D. on traumatic memory in New York, Dr. Tali Sharot witnessed the 9/11 attacks on the Twin Towers. She set out to investigate people's memories of the terrorist attacks and discovered that although people felt their memories were as accurate as a videotape, they were often filled with errors. She decided then to focus her research on how emotion affects people's memories and decisions.

I was inspired by a question from Al-Anon's  workbook 'Reaching for Personal Freedom' in the chapter for Step One that read "What keeps me holding onto the illusion that I have the power to change someone else?"Seeing that it is only an illusion that we can change others is a crucial step in achieving personal freedom and growth. It is natural to want to help those we care about and to try to change their behaviors or situations that we see as harmful or negative. However, the truth is that we cannot control others, and trying to do so can lead to frustration, disappointment, and even resentment.By recognizing our powerlessness over others, we can focus our energy on changing ourselves and our reactions to the people and circumstances in our lives. This shift in focus allows us to take responsibility for our own well-being and to develop the tools we need to navigate challenging situations and relationships in a healthier way.It takes courage and humility to acknowledge our powerlessness, but doing so is a critical step in our personal and spiritual growth. When we let go of the illusion of control and accept what we cannot change, we create space for growth, healing, and transformation in our own lives.... Soul Recovery. For more information about Rev.

We talked about how no one needs to be changed to fit our way of living. What we didn't talk about was why we try to change people, and where it comes from.  Today I tackle that question.

How do we try to change others?Effective strategy is to learn how to deal with our emotions because we just have to be ourselves.You've got to be aware enough to even catch yourself responding or reacting.Be very self aware of the thoughts that are going through your mind. Whatever physical sensation in your body, just always being in the state of awareness, especially when you get triggered.If you really want to learn how to handle your emotions, listen to today's episode. 

Do you secretly want to change other people? We all have been guilty of criticizing others at one point or another. It's important to consider the amount time you spend each day judging other people and telling them their actions are wrong, as well as why this happens in your life so often! You regularly try convincing other people that only yours is correct perspective on everything - which isn't true because every single person has his own voice heard within himself/herself but rather just speaks through different channels depending upon what he needs help processing right now. 

In our increasingly volatile world, you need more than a growth plan. You need a Resilient Growth Strategy. Jonathan Brill is the guy to share it with us. In this all too brief conversation, Jonathan shares his insights into how we can develop a growth plan and take advantage of the change others are afraid of. He's the author of the book Rogue Waves, and if you're worried about change, BIG changes and SMALL changes and ALL changes, you won't want to miss this conversation.

This is big one and something we all do and feel the urge to do.  And that's to change others just because the don't, they are, they do, they chose different, simply other than what we feel is right or correct.   Listen in and see what resonates for you and let yourself be inspired and challenged to do different and maybe better by accepting and embracing the other person at the very core of who they are.

I talk about the importance of being a role model and living a healthy and good life. Sometime in the future perhaps other people will respond to what you're doing, but other than that there's nothing you can do to change how they behave. The only thing you could do is simply just live a healthy and good life so that others might actually come talk to you in the future. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

If people cared about their own lives the way they put effort into the lives of others their own lives would be mucn better. Put the time and energy into changing your own life especially when you know change needs to occur. You don't have to settle for anything that holds you back!

Everyone wants to change others as per their own but does not change themselves for others

The only person I ever can control is me. I know this. I share this with my clients. Yet, in my role as a mother, I somehow blocked this from my knowledge.I had to come back to realizing that my children cannot give me what I need. Good or bad. I must be responsible for creating what I need for my life. I am the one who creates my peace of mind. I am the one who decides to be calm and collected. I am the one in control of myself. For all the positive attributes. I am the one in control. My thoughtsMy emotionsMy well-being My peace My confidence My joy My beliefs My creativity For all my negative attributes. I am the one in control. My triggers My rageMy frustrations My annoyances My limitations My strugglesMy sinsMy inability to focus It is not what my children do that takes away from or adds to my control. It is how I choose to respond to what they do and what I make it mean in my life.

I haven't shared this personal experience with anyone outside of my very close circle, and not for any other reason except until now; it hadn't felt necessary. Now, I can share, talk about it, and use my experience to help others discover they have independence from their history. They don't need to cancel, erase, remove, change anything to affect their mood, feelings, etc. It is all from them. Not talking about it in the early years protected me from all of the emotional pain I experienced daily. I had an endometrioma the size of a large grapefruit. It made me look pregnant; people asked me about it a lot. They asked if I were pregnant, and I knew I might never have a child. I fought with the world, what was happening to me...until that moment in Starbucks and I recognized who I Am.

1. If it is true that we can't change people, why would evolution waste energy engineer feelings in us that make us feel incline to try to change others? If we can't change others, why do people come to believe they can or enter relationships with others on that premise? 2. My brother has always been very private about his relationship with his significant other, to the point that it makes our family uncomfortable.  She was a foreign exchange student when they met, failed to meet requirements for her work visa this spring, and my brother finally told us they got married this past May to keep her in the states. He also expressed as recently as one year ago he is not even sure he likes her, but does enjoy her attention and having company. I guess my question here is twofold; is it worth expressing concern to him about this being that’s it’s done? It was a particularly hard blow to my parents, who are practicing Catholics, and I don’t see how he could fail to see the hurt it would cause them. Second... from a gene standpoint, why did he do this? 3. I have a 15 year old son who did poorly in school after it moved online last spring - eventually he stopped doing any of his work and lied to my husband and I about it. He is returning to a hybrid model in a couple of weeks, and I am already dreading the acrimony that will follow. My husband is our son's stepfather with no biological children of his own. In the past, there has been conflict between my husband and I about how to handle this - I think my husband is draconian and he thinks I'm too relaxed. How much freedom is appropriate to give kids when it comes to schoolwork? What about lying? Is there any way to protect my relationships with both my husband and my son through this? And finally, why do some step-parents (like my husband) get so invested in kids that will not be carrying their genes forward?

We celebrate our 50th episode (after a 2 month hiatus...sorry) by taking a trip down memory lane and discussing our origin story.

"It is the part of an uneducated person to blame others where he himself fares ill” Epectitus Many of tend to spend good deal of time thinking about and trying to change other people to make our lives better and easier, when in fact changing ourselves to make the lives of others better is a far more noble, virtuous and rewarding goal. The irony is, that when we do the work on ourselves so we can show up for others, we inadvertently increase the quality and satisfaction on our own life!

Tali Sharot is a professor of cognitive neuroscience and a leading expert on the neural basis of emotion, decision making and optimism. She has been featured in numerous media outlets,including The New York Times, Time magazine, The Washington Post, CNN, BBC, and more. Her TED talk on the optimism bias was viewed over 2 million times. Her latest book, The Influential Mind: What the Brain Reveals About Our Power to Change Others, tackles the neuroscience behind influence -- what we so often get wrong about it, how we can learn to influence others, and how to understand when we are being influenced. In the interview, Tali and I discuss: How our brains are wired to look on the bright side, and why that tendency can both help and hurt us. Why stress can diminish our bias toward optimism How we can remain optimistic in the face of failure or fear of failure Why a failure in Tali’s own life ended up giving her the idea for her research on the optimism bias Why facts and data don’t tend to change minds once we form a belief. When hope can be a better influencer than fear — and the other way around.

In order to change others around you, you need to change yourself first. Everything starts with you!! Change is good when you change for the better.

We are back in the fourteenth chapter of Romans this morning, and we are going to be discussing the favorite indoor sport of Christians, that is, trying to change each other. As this passage indicates, this has been a major problem in the church for centuries. All through the history of the church, the problem arises from the attitude that most of us share, I am sure, that God is clearly pleased with the way we live -- but there are those others around. They drink beer and play cards; they go to movies; they smoke cigars; they work on Sundays; they wear lipstick; they dance; they play musical instruments; they use zippers instead of buttons. There is an endless list of things that can be included, debatable matters that the church has never been able to settle because of a misunderstanding of the principles that are set forth here in this very passage.

In her new book, The Influential Mind, neuroscientist Tali Sharot takes readers on a thrilling exploration of the nature of influence, so she and Shermer start the conversation by discussing how we can influence, for example, climate deniers to accept climate science, anti-vaxxers to accept vaccines, and creationists to accept evolution. As Sharot shows in her research, merely presenting people with the facts will not change their minds. There are other forces at work, which she reveals in this conversation and in more depth in her book. It turns out, for example, that many of our instincts—from relying on facts and figures to shape opinions, to insisting others are wrong or attempting to exert control—are ineffective, because they are incompatible with how people’s minds operate. Sharot shows us how to avoid these pitfalls, and how an attempt to change beliefs and actions is successful when it is well-matched with the core elements that govern the human brain. Sharot reveals the critical role of emotion in influence, the weakness of data and the power of curiosity. Relying on the latest research in neuroscience, behavioral economics and psychology, she provides fascinating insight into the complex power of influence, good and bad. Since she grew up in Israel, she and Shermer discuss the role of religion in terrorism and politics along with health and happiness. Tali Sharot is a Professor of cognitive Neuroscience at University College London where she directs the Affective Brain Lab. She combines research in psychology, behavioural economics and neuroscience to reveal the forces that shape our decisions and beliefs. Dr. Sharot is the author of The Influential Mind and The Optimism Bias. Her papers have been published in top scientific journals including Nature, Science and Nature Neuroscience. This work has been the subject of features in many outlets including the New York Times, the Washington Post, CNN, the BBC and others. She has also written essays for Time (cover story), the New York Times, the Guardian among others. She was a speaker at TED’s annual conference 2012 and a British Academy and Wellcome Trust fellow. She received her Ph.D from New York University. Listen to Science Salon via iTunes, Spotify, Google Play Music, Stitcher, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, and Soundcloud.

Train with Coach JV @ www.jvimpacts.com Follow Coach JV on IG @jvimpacts_ Follow Warrior JV on IG @jvwarrior444 This type of behavior starts at a very young age in my opinion.  As young kids we are always working to get someone else to do what we want; we tell them this is the character we want them to play in our game.  We become responsible adults and this behavior continues and at a level that has much higher steaks. We get into relationships like: Marriage, Work boss and co worker, and Buisness Partnerships! We like what we see at first, and then once things start to get real, we start the destructive game of working to change the other person to meet our needs and wants. This game is a slippery slope. The truth is you can NOT change another person, and it is not your right nor your resposbility to do so.  So you make it your life's mission to change this person and the batter begins, a battle that I promise you will you not winning. You will get exactly opposite of what you want.  Here is what should really happen!  You should work to change yourself, because the truth is when you are projecting someone else's needs to change, that is a true sign that you are the one with the issues.  What I am saying is you do not have the power to change anyone else, only the power to change yourself.   Changing yourself and your actions is the only way to make it right, and if the other person does not raise up or down to your level of standards then this may not be the right relationship.

This week the kingly content for your ears comes from Chris, who is contemplating cutbacks. Everyone makes mistakes in life, and it’s no different in business. But the best thing to do is acknowledge them and learn from them. Quotes Gear Picks The Influential Mind: What the Brain Reveals About Our Power to Change Others […]

Can facts change someone’s mind? Most times, this approach is a dead end, especially when we try to convince those with top-notch analytical skills. In fact, neuroscience shows that analytical people will tend to use data to find fault with facts they don’t like. If we want to bring someone closer to our way of thinking, Tali Sharot suggests another way in her book, The Influential Mind: What the Brain Reveals about our Power to Change Others. Tali is founder and director of the Affective Brain Lab at University College London and an associate professor of cognitive neuroscience. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, and the BBC. Tali is also author of the book, The Optimism Bias. In this interview we discuss: Why we tend to seek out information that confirms what we already believe Our attraction to information associated with people who think like us How bias compounds as we filter for information that aligns with, and people who agree with, our beliefs How we will avoid getting advice from experts - on something completely unrelated to politics - if they are not aligned with our political beliefs Why people with strong math and analytical skills can become even more entrenched in their beliefs on a topic How our brains tend to encode information from people who agree with us and how that impacts the decisions we make Why starting a conversation by focusing on an area of agreement can help us view one another as more similar than originally thought and help us listen more fully to a different perspective How our brains can synchronize when we listen to an emotional, compelling speech and how that helps us predict what the speaker may say How feelings of happiness, sadness, stress, and so on, can be emotionally contagious for others in a family, group or organization How social media serves as the amygdala of the internet, rousing us emotionally in ways associated with how the amygdala works How immediate, positive feedback, associated with progress and situated in a social setting, can improve performance The fact that our phobias arise from areas of our life we cannot control How our brains view choice as a reward Links to Topics Mentioned in the Podcast Tali Sharot @affectivebrain Affective Brain Lab Dan Kahan Mentalization How Emotions are Made by Lisa Feldman Barrett Susan Cain Uri Hasson Weizmann Institute of Science Hospital Hand Hygiene Project Discovery health insurance If you enjoy the podcast, please rate and review it on iTunes - your ratings make all the difference.

,so change yourself‼️

We're all very busy posting, tweeting and sharing, much of it designed to change the minds of others. This is understandable but not the best use of our time because change is extremely difficult even when we are motivated. So to try to change people to see things our way who aren't particularly motivated to do so has some degree of futility embedded in it. Better perhaps if we use our time to try to change our own minds, to try to get our own house in order. We are the only ones who we have any real control over. And perhaps if we do manage to change and improve ourselves it will be reflected in everything we do and rub off on those around us.

Tali Sharot (@affectivebrain) is an associate professor of cognitive neuroscience, the founder and director of the Affective Brain Lab at University College London, and author of The Influential Mind: What the Brain Reveals About Our Power to Change Others. What We Discuss with Tali Sharot: When hope is a better motivator than fear -- and vice versa. Facts and figures don't tend to change minds already aligned to a certain opinion -- in fact, they can have a backfire effect that further entrenches people in their beliefs. The four factors that determine whether or not we're likely to change our beliefs. What happens when new evidence doesn't fit our beliefs, but it fits what we want to believe. When trying to persuade, it's better to seed a new belief than to contradict the old one. And much more...

Tali Sharot is an Associate Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience at University College London, and director of the Affective Brain Lab. Affective, as in emotions and motivation. Brain, as in processing and decisions. Drawing on recent groundbreaking work in behavioral economics and neuroscience, Sharot shows us how to navigate the intricacies and predictable biases of minds; our own and those of others. Dr. Sharot is the author of the new book The Influential Mind: What the Brain Reveals About Our Power to Change Others. When I saw the title, I knew I had to discover what she knows about influence: how we can do it well, and how we often screw it up.

*Can you truly change others? And what is the price you pay for trying to do so? What if there was an easier way of dealing with that desire we all have to change the behavior, habits, or beliefs of those around us? In this episode, I’ll share the most useful and insightful tips I’ve gathered from various experts and invite you to expand your perspective on the topic of changing others.* Best-selling author Mark Manson remarked during his Get Over Yourself show appearance ( https://www.bradkearns.com/2020/06/23/mark-manson-the-subtle-art-of-connecting-with-your-emotional-brain-seeing-yourself-with-honesty-and-vulnerability-and-connecting-the-emotional-brain-with-the-rational-brain/ ) that instead of trying to change others, *“You must decide what you are willing to tolerate and not willing to tolerate in your relationships.”* Otherwise, you’ll be stuck in a “lose-lose situation” if you continue to try to change someone, or if you yourself end up changing for someone else. Another one of my favorite insights from Mark was his argument that *self worth is an “illusion”* and that you should best *view your life as a series of decisions and actions.* Instead, work on cultivating self discipline, because *self discipline is the real key to happiness.* I also love Mark’s stance on never using other people as a means to an end. Don’t think about what others can do for you, but rather, what you can do to be of service to others. I’m also a fan of the actor Dax Shepard’s podcast Armchair Expert and share a story from one episode about how he handled an issue he was having with his wife, actress Kristen Bell. Annoyed with her habit of reading and responding to emails at night in bed, Dax remarked something along the lines of, ‘Can’t you schedule your time better during the day so you don’t do this at night?’ Well, unsurprisingly, that did not go over well. What did, however, was *a different approach* , with Dax simply telling her that he needed her full attention. The heart of the issue changed: it was no longer about what he wanted her to do, but instead about what he needed from her, and that made all the difference. I wrap up the show with some great insights from Dave Rossi ( https://www.bradkearns.com/2020/10/13/dave-rossi-interviews-brad-kearns/ ) , who says that, “Attachments in relationships set you up for pain and suffering” and advises us to, “Accept others as they are, and don’t try to change them.” Thanks for listening, and check back for part 3 of this series which will cover insights from experts on how to optimize your health! *TIMESTAMPS:* Don’t try to change other people. [01:28] Self-worth is an illusion. [02:15] If someone is trying to change you, then you are stuck in a lose-lose situation. [03:37] Learn to express your own needs by doing it in a way where you are not trying to change the other person. [05:06] The conditioned self responds to situations that supersede our power to make choices. [08:48] The highest level of human consciousness would be to never use others as a means to an end. [11:56] Don’t judge people. Don’t try to change people. Accept them for who they are.

It soon became evident to Mike how insane trying to do all this at once was, and so he quickly shut down Politics Plus. But before he did, he'd posted four interviews – all of which he thinks are pretty good and are worth sharing with you as Politics Guys bonus episodes.) *****   *****   ***** Mike talks to Tali Sharot, director of the Affective Brain Lab ( http://affectivebrain.com/ ) and an Associate Professor of Cognitive Neuroscience in the department of Experimental Psychology at University College London.
