Game Changers

Focus your brain’s energy where it matters most

Instructions

Clarify your values.
Close your eyes and try to imagine your ideal life, relationships, achievements, and impact in 20 years. Then, identify your main values in life based on these. Use those values to determine which activities matter and which ones are simply distractions. If others demand you to do something that distracts you from what truly matters, learn to say “no.”
Create your best self.
Write down three words describing your ideal best self, which you will use as a guide for your daily behavior. Instead of waiting to “discover” who you are, you can always choose who you will be by aligning your behavior and mindset with the three words you identified yourself with. Review these words daily. You can even set alerts on your phone to remind you of these three words regularly.
Identify limiting beliefs and rewrite them.
Write down where you feel you are being internally held back, and identify the belief imposing those limits on your life. Journal once a week on what beliefs you are operating from. Most importantly, begin meditating on new, empowering beliefs each morning, like saying, “I’m grateful that there is a conspiracy to make things happen the way they’re supposed to. The universe has my back.”
Increase your learning and memorization capacity.
You can use tools such as the Dual N-Back app, like a “CrossFit for your brain,” to noticeably increase your working memory. Consider taking a speed reading course for faster information processing and better retention. Whenever possible, engage your visual senses in learning and try to visualize information with your eyes closed.
Boost your brain power with nootropics and smart drugs.
To know whether they’re right for you, do your research first about racetams (particularly aniracetam, piracetam, and phenylpiracetam) and modafinil (you will need a prescription). Caffeine and nicotine in a pouch or gum form (tobacco free) will give a cognitive boost for better creativity and productivity. But you should be aware of nicotine’s addiction potential.
Consider psychedelics or Holotropic breathwork.
For deeper self-awareness and healing at the subconscious level, psychedelics can be a powerful tool. Consider whether or not they may be right for you, and look into legal options for psychedelic experiences. Holotropic breathwork sessions may provide similar effects without ingesting psychedelic substances.
Set a positive tone for the day.
Have a morning routine that sets you up in a positive and energetic state. You can implement journaling, meditation, visualization, and daily goal-setting to achieve this. Be sure also to plan time to rest and recharge each day.
