Program Your Brain To Spot Hidden Opportunities
Published 2025-09-03 16-03
Summary
Your brain filters out thousands of opportunities daily because it doesn’t know what you want. Learn to program your mental filter to spot what others miss.
The story
Most people think their brain just randomly notices things throughout the day. Wrong.
Your brain has a built-in filter called the Reticular Activation System that decides what gets your attention. Right now, it’s probably filtering out thousands of opportunities because it doesn’t know what you actually want.
Here’s the problem: without training this system, you’re essentially walking through life blind to the very things that could change everything for you.
Think about it. Ever notice how when you want a specific car, you suddenly see it everywhere? That’s your RAS working. But most people never learn to use this for bigger things – career opportunities, relationships, business ideas.
In Chapter 6 of “The Journey,” I break down exactly how visualization creates a direct pathway to your subconscious mind. This isn’t feel-good fluff. This is about literally rewiring your brain to spot what others miss.
When you consistently visualize your goals, you’re programming your mental filter. Your brain starts noticing resources, connections, and possibilities that were always there but invisible to you before.
The solution is simple but requires discipline: daily visualization that trains your RAS to focus on what matters. Most people drift through life letting their brain’s filter run on autopilot, missing opportunity after opportunity.
Your RAS connects the subconscious part of the brain with the conscious part, filtering out redundant information and focusing on what you’ve determined to be important. Guess which system you want working for you?
Chapter 6 shows you exactly how to harness this power and stop leaving your success to chance.
