From Negations to Affirmations: What You Focus on Grows - Coach Matt
About this episode
Today, we're talking about how what you focus on expands and why your words matter more than you think.
Ever heard, 'Don't think of a pink elephant'?
What happened?
You pictured it, right?
That's because the brain doesn't process 'don't', it latches onto the image or idea.
So when you tell yourself, 'Don't drink tonight,' your mind actually focuses on drinking.
In this episode, we'll flip the script, showing you how turning negations into affirmations can be a powerful tool for staying alcohol-free. Because what you focus on, grows.
