Why do we only see what we want to see? How can two different people, having the exact same experience, have totally different reactions?

In this episode John explores a subtle detail about how our brains work and how it can make a fundamental difference to your experience of being alive. Listen to find out:

• How we only experience a tiny fraction of what's really happening
• Why energy flows where attention goes
• How you can program your brain to make you instantly happier
• Why things are not nearly as bad as they seem

"If we have an interest in being right about how terrible things are, our brain is going to show us a version of reality that proves us right."
