What you'll get out of it:
- The real reason why you can't stick to your diet or focus at work
- A way to trick your brain into making evolutionary barriers work for you, not against you
- What to eat and when to eat it to ramp up your testosterone levels
Your intellect is smart but your brain is not.
This is why everyone does things they don't actually want to do.
People keep doing drugs instead of getting clean, keep watching TV instead of going outside, and keep eating McDonalds instead of food that tastes better and makes you feel better.
Your intellect know's what to do and when to do it to create the happiest life possible. It's been to school, it's formulated wisdom from experiences, and it's learning from this blog post right now. But most intellects don't realize that they aren't actually in charge. The intellect is an employee of the the rest of the brain; not the boss. It only serves as a tool for obtaining what the rest of the brain, in charge of EVERYTHING, needs to survive. Things like breathing, eating, pooping, muscle moving, loving, procreating, protecting, staying safe, feeling secure, etc.
So when the rest of the brain decides it's hungry, it tells the intellect to take care of it. The intellect then makes a sandwich that it knows will please the hunger and the taste buds. However, the intellect knows that it shouldn't use mayonaise, it's too high in calories and it's bad for the arteries. But the rest of the brain isn't smart. It never went to school, it never listened to it's mother, it has no wisdom, no concept of time, no understanding of language. Even more so, it was wired together before the time of Doritos, match.com, and health insurance.
So when the intellect decides to put the mayonaise back in the fridge, the rest of the brain sends out a request for as much food as possible. As an employee of the rest of the brain, the intellect abides. "I'll just have it this time, and next time I'll go no-mayo." It takes the need and intellectualizes it so that it stays in conjunction with the rest of it's knowledge. Thus you do things that you would never do had your intellect been in charge of what it was doing. But you do it anyway, because your intellect is a slave to the illiterate, busy, and unaware rest of the brain.
Is it hopeless? Not really. Your intellect is learning this concept right now and the rest of your brain isn't paying attention. Once your intellect learns that it's a slave, and can't do anything without it's master, it can decide to manipulate the master to get what it wants.
How? It can get complicated. A high protein, high cholesterol dinner can be a start. The nutrients from the food will ramp up testosterone production over night. In the morning, the rest of your brain will have more aggressive needs, if you can figure out how to point them towards something worthwhile like work or hobbies, you can get your intellect finally working for a good cause. This is just an example.
Learn more and let your intellect create schemes and conspiracies to control the rest of your brain. The biggest bang for your buck will be in diet, exercise, and environment changes.
You don't have to worry about the rest of your brain catching your intellect, getting caught, the rest of thwill never be listening.
