Somos lo que (nos) decimos

Our minds are more malleable than we think. Despite what we may believe, we retain the same ability to learn throughout our lives. However, as we age, we lose the motivation to learn and instead build sentences about what we cannot be - the person who thinks maths is not for them, the one who feels they were not born for music, the one who believes they cannot manage their anger, and the one who fears their limitations. Demolishing these beliefs is the starting point for improving anything in life. The good news is that it is possible to change our thoughts and feelings, even those deeply ingrained. The bad news is that simply proposing a change is not enough. We also need to learn to talk to ourselves. Fortunately, we have a powerful tool: good conversations. By combining neuroscience, real-life stories, and a healthy dose of humour, this book explains how these conversations can improve decision-making, ideas, memory, and emotional well-being, and ultimately, change your life. By understanding how our minds work, we can learn to challenge our own thoughts and build new, more positive ones. This book shows us how to have the right conversations with ourselves to achieve this. It's a simple yet powerful idea that can have a profound impact on our lives. With its unique blend of science, storytelling, and humour, this book offers a fresh and practical approach to personal growth and self-improvement.
