Do you trust the voice in your head?Our brains are remarkable. They subconsciously translate the events around us into meaningful storylines that inform what we think and how we live. The problem is, the stories our minds feed us as facts aren't always true.Worse, these stories turn into false beliefs about others, the world, and ourselves that keep us from our true potential.These limiting beliefs confront us all. But what if you could harness your brain's operating system to tell a new story? Not just any story. A true story that empowers you to overcome limitations and surpass your goals.Drawing upon the latest insights in performance psychology, neuroscience, and cognitive science, as well as case studies from their own clients, New York Times bestselling author Michael Hyatt and Megan Hyatt Miller outline a framework anyone can follow to test their own assumptions and start living better, truer stories that shape superior outcomes in business and life.Our Sponsors:* Check out Kinsta: https://kinsta.com* Check out Mint Mobile: https://mintmobile.com/tmf* Check out Moorings: https://moorings.com* Check out Trust & Will: https://trustandwill.com/TRAVIS* Check out Warby Parker: https://warbyparker.com/travisAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
