The No.1 Habit Billionaires Run Daily
Summary
TLDRMel Robbins emphasizes the power of visualization in achieving goals, backed by scientific research. She explains the reticular activating system, which filters information in our brains, and how negative beliefs can be reinforced by this system. Robbins advocates for reprogramming this filter through visualization exercises, which involve imagining achieving goals and the associated positive emotions. This practice not only boosts confidence but also helps in skill development and reprogramming the brain to seek opportunities rather than focusing on limitations.
Takeaways
- 🔮 Visualization is a powerful skill that can help you achieve your goals and realize your potential.
- 🧠 The reticular activating system (RAS) is a network of neurons in the brain that acts as a filter, allowing certain information in and blocking out other information.
- 🤔 Your RAS is programmed by you and influenced by your past experiences, which can lead to confirmation bias and a focus on negative beliefs.
- 🌐 The purpose of the RAS is to protect the brain from information overload by filtering out irrelevant details and focusing on what is deemed important.
- 🛠 Reprogramming the RAS is crucial for changing one's mindset and focusing on positive outcomes and opportunities.
- 🎯 To effectively use visualization, one must close their eyes and create a specific mental picture of achieving their goals and the emotions associated with it.
- 💡 Visualization exercises should be done consciously, linking the imagined scenario with the positive emotions that will be felt upon achieving the goal.
- 🧬 The brain does not distinguish between real and imagined experiences, which means visualization can encode imagined scenarios as real memories.
- 🚀 Regular visualization can increase confidence, security, and skill development, as if one were actually performing the actions being visualized.
- 🌟 By visualizing success, you reprogram your brain to spot opportunities and evidence that supports your belief in your ability to achieve your goals.
- ⏰ The speaker suggests a daily 30-second visualization practice to reprogram the RAS and build momentum towards achieving one's goals.
Q & A
What is the main concept discussed in the script?
-The main concept discussed in the script is the power of visualization and its role in achieving personal goals.
What is the reticular activating system and what does it do?
-The reticular activating system (RAS) is a network of neurons in the brain that acts as a filter system, allowing certain information to enter the brain while blocking out other information.
How does the reticular activating system relate to our beliefs and perceptions?
-The RAS is programmed by us and our past experiences, and it seeks out evidence that confirms our existing beliefs, whether positive or negative.
What is the role of visualization in reprogramming the reticular activating system?
-Visualization helps reprogram the RAS by creating imagined scenarios that the brain treats as real memories, thus changing the filter system and allowing the brain to spot opportunities and positive evidence.
What are the two key steps involved in effective visualization according to the script?
-The two key steps are: 1) Closing your eyes and visualizing a specific picture of what your life will look like when your goal is achieved. 2) Consciously thinking of the positive emotions you will feel as a result of achieving that goal.
How does visualization impact our confidence and belief in our abilities?
-Visualization increases confidence and belief in one's abilities by encoding imagined scenarios as real memories, which in turn changes the brain's filter system to focus on positive outcomes and opportunities.
What is the connection between visualization and skill development?
-Research suggests that visualizing oneself performing tasks can develop the skills needed for those tasks, as if actually performing them, by reprogramming the brain's neural pathways.
How long should one spend visualizing each day according to the script?
-The script suggests spending 30 seconds each day visualizing the achievement of one's goals.

🔍 Unlocking Potential Through Visualization
The speaker, Mel Robbins, emphasizes the importance of visualization in achieving goals and reaching one's potential. She introduces the concept by explaining that our brains have a reticular activating system (RAS), which acts as a filter for information. This system is influenced by our beliefs and past experiences, often reinforcing negative beliefs if we focus on them. Robbins suggests that by visualizing positive outcomes, we can reprogram the RAS to recognize opportunities and evidence that supports our goals. She outlines a two-step visualization process: first, close your eyes and create a mental image of your improved self-worth and the life changes that come with it; second, consciously think about the positive emotions you will feel as a result of achieving these goals. Robbins assures that this method is backed by scientific research and encourages viewers to practice visualization daily to build confidence and rewire their thought patterns.
🧠 Reprogramming the Brain for Success
In this paragraph, Mel Robbins delves deeper into the science behind visualization, explaining how it can retrain the brain's filter system. She illustrates the process of visualizing positive scenarios and the emotions associated with them, which can lead to increased confidence and skill development, as if the visualized actions were real experiences. Robbins highlights that the brain does not distinguish between real and imagined memories, which is why visualization can be so powerful. By consistently visualizing success, one can change their mindset, build skills, and become more proactive in seeking opportunities. The speaker concludes by urging viewers to incorporate a daily visualization practice into their routine, suggesting that even a brief 30-second visualization can significantly impact one's ability to achieve monetary goals and improve overall life satisfaction.

If you expect to achieve your goals if you expect to reach your potential if you expect to have your dreams come true
what I'm about to explain to you is mission critical you must
become a master at
visualization
For those of you that are like what the heck is she talking about I did not sign up for some sort of meditation
Woohoo a spiritual thing here
Don't worry. This is Mel Robbins
There's always science and research involved in everything that I talk about
so
visualization is a
extraordinarily
Powerful skill you may have heard of the law of attraction
You may have heard of the word
Visualization you may have heard of the word
manifesting I
Call it seeing signs
Your brain has a system in it. Here's the technical term. It's called the reticular
activating system
It is a network of neurons all up in here
And what is the job of the reticular activating system?
It is a filter system
It's basically a system that allows
certain information in your brain and it
blocks out other information and
guess who programmed that filter you did and
so did the people from your past and so if you constantly feel like you're
Unlovable guess what? Your reticular activating system is
Going through the day and it is going to point out
every single piece of evidence that
confirms that negative belief that you have if you think that people don't like you at work the reticular
activating system the filter it is literally going to be looking for evidence to
Confirm that belief all day long
This is one of the reasons why we have such a problem with politics in this country
this is why there's something called a
Confirmation bias confirmation bias means your mind loves to read things that you agree with
Because reading things that you agree with
Confirms your filter. Why do we have a reticular activating system? There's a really important reason
Why you have this the reason why is if your brain let in everything? Have you ever looked at?
a Facebook page
have you noticed how many words are on a
Standard Facebook page and the ad over here in the ad over here and the ad over here and the ad mezuzah see right here
And the stuff up here and that all this over here if your brain took in everything at equal value
Your head would literally explode off your shoulders your brain would melt down and so the reticular activating system
protects your brain by filtering information and only letting in stuff that it agrees with so
That's the scientific
Reason and mandate for why you got to get busy?
Reprogramming that thing now we're going to talk about how you use
Visualization in order to start to reprogram the reticular activating system in your brain so that your brain starts to spot
Opportunity your brain starts to spot evidence that things are working out your brain starts to spot
Coincidences so you can build momentum and it begins with visualization. So as you
Take your goals. Right? So you've written down all these goals right for 2019
I want you to go to each one and I want you to do a visualization exercise
And here's how you're gonna do it based on science because there's a particular way you have to do this based on science. Okay
it's a two-step method if your goal is to improve your self-worth I
Want you to visualize?
What your life looks like and how you're going to feel
About yourself when your self-worth has improved. There's two things that you have to do when it comes to visualization
You have to close your eyes
Truly, I know it sounds stupid
But I want you to close your eyes and I want you to in your mind have a specific picture of
What it looks like in your life
When your self-worth has improved you're gonna see yourself speaking up at work
You're gonna see yourself talking more about your business. You're gonna see yourself leaving bad relationships
You're gonna see yourself defining boundaries. You're gonna see yourself going to the gym. You're gonna see yourself
taking care of yourself and when you start to visualize
the image of that I want you to
Consciously. This is step to
Consciously think of the positive emotions that you're gonna feel I'm gonna feel happy. I'm gonna feel proud
I'm gonna stand taller. I'm going to be so grateful that I made this change
Marrying the the specific picture there. I am there. I am. I'm I'm it I'm at work and I'm raising my hand amazing
I'm sharing my tea. There. I am I'm getting a promotion there. I am asking for a raise there
I am I've just signed up another customer to my business there. I am I've gone back to school. I feel so good about myself
When you do that here's what's actually happening in your brain
This is the cool science part
You are training your brain
To have a totally different filter. You see your brain my brain. It doesn't know the difference between
something that actually happened to you like the f you got in your test in tenth grade and
The things you imagine that are happening to you
Let me say that again
your brain doesn't know the difference between the bad things that actually
happen to you
The real memories that you have and an imagined
Memory that you're creating your brain will experience you visualizing
Going to the gym you visualizing how happy you feel when you do you visualizing
Asking for that raise and getting it how crowd you're gonna fuel your brain when you visualize
In the way that I'm teaching you to it
encodes it as a real memory and that's important because when you encode it as a real memory it
changes the filter system that
Reticular activating system and here's what we know based on research the more you visualize things number one
The greater your confidence is going to be
The greater security you're gonna have about it. And here's the really cool thing
The more you do this with your goals you wake up every day and you just visualize four
It takes 30 freaking seconds for crying out loud. You visualize having a great day at school. You visualize
Curing your panic and how proud you're going to be what studies suggest and have proven is that simply?
visualizing yourself doing things
actually develops the skill and
Helps you improve the skills
just as if you were actually doing it and so there's proof based on research that visualization helps you build skills and
Then finally the other thing that's really important about this
Is that the more that you do this what we know based on research?
Is that the reason why you start to believe what you think is because you are reprogramming
your brain you are changing the
network of neurons that act as a filter and so the more that you actually believe
In yourself and you start thinking and visualizing yourself speaking up the more confident
you're going to become the more skills that you're building and you're actually going to do it and
Then instead of looking for all the reasons when you're sitting in a meeting to not speak up
You're going to just speak up because you're gonna have changed the filter. You're gonna look for opportunities. This is how it works
This is why this is so
Incredibly important and so day one. I want you to go through all the goals that you set and I want you
Every single day throughout the next 30 days
You are going to spend 30 seconds your dreams deserves the thirty seconds
don't you think you're gonna close your eyes and you're gonna visualize
What does it look like in your life when you have achieved?
Your monetary goals this year. How does it feel to go to the bank and see that balance?
How does it feel to be able to write that check and take your kids to Disney World?
on money that you made how does it feel to be able to rent your own place or put down a down payment for the
house
You've always dreamt of how does it feel?
To be able to have saved enough money
So you can quit the job that you hate and launch the business because you have achieved your goals
It feels darn good. That's how it feels and I want you to just savor that because what you're doing when you visualize is you're
reprogramming your reticular
activating system that system of neurons that network that acts like a filter
In your brain so that it's spotting opportunity so that it is helping you see evidence that you are
Confident that you are capable that you can do this instead of all the garbage you think right now
