if you follow the brainwashing formula which is focus emotion agitation and repetition it spells fear and that is the best way to brainwash yourself to form these new habits and goals so how can I get myself to focus how can I build the emotion which is the why not just one at the very beginning how can I continue to make it emotional maybe I can make the cost of inaction emotional and then agitation is let's say I wanted to lose weight or whatever the same house every day that I've lived xway in I'm seeing the same hallway same rug same couch everything looks the same my brain says oh I'm here I'm going to follow that script because our brain writes scripts for us to save us time so agitation means I'm going to disrupt my environment so much and so often that my brain has no chance to default to an older script and repetition which is just over and over and over how can I reexpose you to the same stimula I reexpose myself to the same stimuli
