In the workplace, gaslighting often happens when someone is trying to change beliefs about who should get the credit or blame for a particular project. Art Markman Explains.

Part 2 of this great episode: 

Habits may help us to carry out our daily routine but they often cause us trouble, from unhealthy eating and smoking, to poor study skills and work routines. We've all experienced that endless frustration when we try to kick a bad habit.

The frustration you have now will soon be over. Our guest is a premier cognitive scientist and draws on all the latest scientific research to help us succeed in beating bad habits. With the help of today’s book, not only does he help us to understand just how habits are formed and maintained but he equips us with 5 essential tools to help us change our behaviour for the better and, what's more, influence the behaviour of others at work and at home.

These same tools can also be used to help people around us change their behaviours, and this book shows us how. It is a great instruction manual for influencing others.

 

It is a pleasure to welcome the author of “Smart Change: Break the habits that hold you back and form the habits of success”, Art Markman.

Time to rock that BRAIN this week, and we could probably all use it with waht's going on in the world right now.... the virus, the shelter in place orders.... How are we coping and how can we maximize this time for our minds? The podcast is in four segments, and here’s this week’s breakdown:

Segment 1: Rock Your Life with Amy: Amy explores what we can do with this time we've got on our hands, the habits we can build, the surrender that we are asked to make now, and how paying attention to our sleep can impact our brains. And Amy gets personal this week with a reframe realization of an issue she's had her entire life.

Segment 2: The Interview: Art Markman, Ph.D. of Psychology and Professor at UT, author of several books including Smart Thinking and most recently, Bring Your Brain to Work, and he has the podcast "Two Guys on Your Head." Art is great at explaining how our brains function at times like we are currently experiencing. We cover motivations, emotions, habits, how not to make a decision about what we are “supposed to be feeling” right now, what we can do to leave work when we are working from home, and so much more. And what's most important right now? He says, "Take the time to rethink. Do I want to do things differently while I have the chance? [This time] is a really great chance to rethink the way that we interact with the people that are closest to us and to make that better." Learn more about Art HERE.

Segment 3: Go Aff Yourself with Jill Faulkner of stickwithit.co. This week Amy and Jill talk about the effect that affirmations have had on our brains over the years of doing them; subconscious negative patterns of thought that we may choose because they are familiar; and Jill has a big aha! moment. This week’s Aff is: I Work With My Brain.

Segment 4: BYOBBB -Build Your Own Brand, Biz + Brain with Bijou Finney: Bijou and Amy both have had cases of zombie brain; they cover sales in the time of coronavirus and how to focus on the clients you already have; how our brains work with choice; and ultimately, this week's grand takeaway about reframing and how we can work to find the good in any situation.

Habits allow you to carry out your daily routines without having to put in effort to guide your actions. They allow you to multitask—to talk and drive a car, to walk and chew gum, to type and think at the same time. However, bad habits can be destructive. Enter this week's guest Art Markman. His new book Smart Change gives readers new tools to create new and sustainable habits in yourselves and others.

Beause your brain is wired NOT to!  Now, you can finally give yourself a break....let yourself off the hook. It's not YOU. It's your brain.  To overcome the brain's natural tendency to do the thing it always did, you have to be aware and set your environment up to support your new habit. Art Markman will explain.   And....why do people stretch their earlobes and tattoo their necks? It's art. And Jess Starr is teaching me some manners.   This show airs on 100.7 WHUD on Sunday March 15, 2015
