How do YOU see the world? In this episode, award-winning behavioral scientist Dr. Emily Balcetis explores the link between perception and goal achievement. She explains that while we share the same reality, our individual interpretations differ significantly. Drawing on behavioral and vision science, Dr. Balcetis reveals how our brains interpret information, influenced by past experiences, even before we consciously "see" it.
Did you know you are walking around seeing two different images of the world at all times that your brain stitches together to create one experience? This episode is full of mind blowing insight about how we see the world, self-talk, and how we perform. Don’t miss it!
