What-If Wednesday: Turning Fear into Excitement with Matt Gardiner

Fear and excitement actually come from the same part of the brain and we produce some of the same hormones where, like if you were going to go skydiving, you'd still be producing cortisol and adrenaline. And so, yeah, it's almost just kind of like flipping the script to come from a place of fear as to, oh my gosh, what if this goes bad to like.
Ever thought about flipping fear into excitement? Matt Gardiner kicks off the first edition of 'What-If Wednesday' by diving into this intriguing idea. The human brain is a master at spotting problems, thanks to the Reticular Activating System (RAS). But what if we could turn that around and use it to our advantage? Megan introduces the concept of 'positivity push-ups', a simple yet powerful way to reframe our thoughts.
Imagine starting your day by asking, 'What if everything goes perfectly?' Suddenly, your day seems full of exciting possibilities instead of looming fears. The episode also touches on the flexibility of schedules. Matt suggests that if you prioritize based on your values, you'll enjoy your day more and stress less about achievements. It's all about surrendering to the moment and focusing on what truly matters.
This episode is perfect for anyone looking to inject a bit of positivity into their routine and see their day through a brighter lens.
