[2361.90 --> 2362.32] Right.
[2362.36 --> 2365.52] Because you're going, there's something, context doesn't fit.
[2366.68 --> 2367.20] Right.
[2367.20 --> 2369.90] And context is so much at the heart.
[2369.90 --> 2375.78] Like we've talked about specificity and saying, look, much of these distortions, all or nothing,
[2375.98 --> 2376.42] catastrophe.
[2376.42 --> 2378.76] It's like they're not rooted in context.
[2379.52 --> 2385.14] They're generalizations or they're, you know, global as opposed to specific.
[2385.62 --> 2385.70] Yeah.
[2385.70 --> 2386.74] They're not based on facts.
[2387.20 --> 2387.70] Right.
[2387.70 --> 2388.86] And we're all different.
[2388.86 --> 2395.76] And so I want to recognize that I am different than everybody else.
[2395.76 --> 2397.24] And nobody's had my experiences.
[2397.44 --> 2399.04] Nobody has my exact genetics.
[2399.60 --> 2400.60] All of those things.
[2400.66 --> 2405.46] I always find it fascinating with siblings because people were raised in the same house by the same parents.
[2405.46 --> 2407.82] But are they the same people or remember the same things?
[2407.82 --> 2408.22] No.
[2408.90 --> 2409.42] Never.
[2409.80 --> 2410.12] Never.
[2410.34 --> 2410.68] Never.
[2411.48 --> 2412.04] Right.
[2412.36 --> 2416.22] Because different things stand out to us in different ways at different times.
[2416.66 --> 2426.10] But so much of our own experiences that are individual are going to affect not only what we think, but then how we see our world.
[2426.50 --> 2429.62] So for our listeners, I would say, what do we take away?
[2429.70 --> 2431.64] What's your next step of action?
[2431.64 --> 2441.12] So we talked about four of these sort of cognitive distortions today, catastrophic thinking, shoulds, the all or nothing, and mental filters.
[2441.74 --> 2451.98] So I would identify, you might even create a little chart and notice just for like track for a day or two when you do these things.
[2451.98 --> 2454.16] Or maybe you're just going to say, I'm going to pick one.
[2454.28 --> 2458.58] I want to pick shoulds because I'm very aware that I should on myself a lot.
[2458.58 --> 2461.16] And just track it.
[2461.34 --> 2466.30] And then what I want you to do is write the alternative you're going to replace it with.
[2466.66 --> 2468.76] So not just, OK, now I'm aware.
[2469.28 --> 2475.60] I always talk about this with patients in terms of getting better and proving you in your life is twofold.
[2475.72 --> 2477.68] There's acknowledging and then there's action.
[2478.44 --> 2482.80] So we're going to acknowledge the thing we're not doing well, where I'm struggling.
[2482.80 --> 2488.04] And then I'm going to identify the action that replaces the thing I don't want to do.
[2488.44 --> 2496.02] Because whenever we're trying to change how we think, we change our neural networks by starvation.
[2496.66 --> 2501.04] So I starve that old thought and I replace it with a new one.
[2501.14 --> 2504.46] It's so much repeal and replace, repeal and replace.
[2504.58 --> 2509.70] I'm going to take away this not helpful way of thinking and I'm going to replace it with a new one.
[2509.70 --> 2513.34] And so I would love to hear from you guys.
[2513.54 --> 2515.86] We got brain science on Slack.
[2516.28 --> 2523.30] You can comment in terms of which distortion you chose and what you're doing differently.
[2525.66 --> 2526.48] All right.
