# The Right Mindset

While it might not be clearly defined, when we take a moment to think about 
it, we all have subconscious core values that we feel most connected to. 
Core values differ from person to person and can range from freedom and 
family to money or religion. Since these subconscious beliefs define our 
actions, having a foundation that is solid and accurate will automatically 
result in more mental stability.

That is why having logic as your core value is the essence of this book, 
since reason is what gives us control over our otherwise impulsive 
decisions. Logic originates from the mathematical patterns that govern our 
reality and gives rise to the complex neural structures required for our 
thoughts and feelings to exist. Aligning our beliefs with these 
mathematical patterns creates a paradigm with little contradiction. All we 
need to do to reduce our inner conflict is to find out how to make sense of 
it within the context of our present reality.

On a fundamental level, realising that your beliefs are the ones that are 
flawed rather than you leads to a higher level of mental clarity and relief. 
All our fears and uncertainties suddenly become logical since we have the 
ability to explain them using neuroscience. Instead of creating 
dysfunctional beliefs or beating ourselves over our thoughts or emotions, 
we can come to acceptance or understand the causes behind the conflict.

This makes sense when we know that emotions emerge even before we are aware 
of them and only by applying reason to our knowledge we will be able to 
rewire neural emotions in a more logical way, a process that takes time.

Defining the right mindset in a universal and accessible way has always been 
a big challenge for me. What has worked the best so far is boiling it down 
to a process in which we adopt 'Making Sense' as our core value. This process 
must happen on a subconscious, emotional level in order to replace the root 
of our current impulsive drive with an intuitive urge to be logical instead. 
This subconscious rewiring is within everyone's ability and it has been the 
defining factor and common thread through all my achievements.
