Mastering your mind: Understand how emotions drive subconscious behaviour

Jeff Buehner is the author of 'The Sultans Seven Secrets' which teaches us how to converse with our subconscious mind through our emotions. In this episode, we discuss self-defeating behaviors and mindsets that originate from our upbringing and are fixed in our subconscious. We learn how to reframe our attitude toward work, money, relationships and fear by working with our emotions and gaining control of subconscious behaviors. - - - Contact Jeff Buener Get his book - Sultans Seven Secrets Twitter - @Jeff_Buener - - - Connect with Sam: Sam's newsletter on creativity - Explosive Thinking  Watch the pod - YouTube - Growth Mindset - - - Chapters 00:00 - Introduction 03:52 - How negative behaviours form 05:07 - Going backwards - having troubles financially  06:17 - Jeff's 2nd unconscious belief 07:25 - How groups affect us 08:40 - Jeff's pivotal change 10:35 - Story of Sultan Musa of Mali 13:13 - Sultan's seven secrets 18:24 - The origin and lessons of Aladdin and the Magic Lamp 19:08 - Feelings are the "language of the Gods" 21:55 - How to use your superpower  29:44 - Manifesting your feelings into your subconsciousness 31:20 - Fear as a sign that it's something worth doing 33:13 - Jeff's book - Sultan's Seven Secrets 34:21 - How Jeff made a lot of money 35:48 - Benefits of Growth Mindset Learn more about your ad choices.

There are a lot of opinions on how to master your mind, but then there’s PSYCHOLOGY. We’re all stuck with the brain we’re born with, but we aren’t stuck with how we use it. Learn science-backed answers to make the most of your mind and your life. CURIOUS? Growth Mindset Psychology is the "self-help sceptic" podcast for the curious. Whether you want to improve performance, navigate setbacks, or know who you are. We find answers to the true science of self-improvement. So put down the astrology chart and start working with your mind, instead of against it. With over 8 million downloads and 60,000 monthly listeners, you’re invited to join. PROCESS Instead of telling you what to think, we discuss how thinking works. Armed with a stack of science journals, textbooks and a boatload of curiosity, we uncover the mechanics of the mind. Why? >>> Success is personal! You might want to make the most of your neurodiverse strengths, start a business, or simply find more reasons to smile. Hone your ability for independent thinking and growth with mental models to pursue your definition of success. HOST I’m Sam Webster Harris, a lifelong learner with ADHD, a raging curiosity, and an obsession with finding answers to hard questions. After launching several businesses, travelling the world and nearly dying a few times I concluded that science and Psychology are where it’s at. What actually makes people happy? What’s the best way to treat a brain? How can I get more done? Studying the answers we find that changing behaviours requires building mindsets, mental models, and a healthy relationship with failure.
