What Comes to Your Mind When You Read This...?

Pause for a moment before reacting

Whatever showed up—skepticism, curiosity, resistance—that wasn’t logic.

That was your beautiful unconscious, moving fast, filling in gaps, telling a story. Your story.Your familiar narrative...

And here’s the part most people miss—and it matters:

We don’t just have stories. We are shaped by them.

These personal narratives run quietly in the background, creating a kind of self-hypnosis: stories about who we are, what’s possible, what the past means, and how the world works.

So your reaction here isn’t really about a sentence. It's about the internal system that decides what feels true, what feels possible, and what gets dismissed.

That same system operates all day:

Explaining why some things feel easy
Justifying why others feel “not for you”
Repeating patterns while sounding completely reasonable

Which is why, when we talk about change, the real question isn’t what you want.

It’s this:

What part of you is doing the interpreting—and how much influence does it have over your results and your life?

That question is at the center of the Strategic Hypnosis Group Call next Friday.Not techniques.Not motivation. But how unconscious meaning is formed—and how to intervene when it’s no longer serving you.

Before anything else, I’m curious:
