When you have a survivalist brain (being a Homo sapien comes with history!), you also have survivalist thinking processes!
Whilst this is not necessarily an issue because our frontal and pre-frontal cortex ( the parts of the brain which makes up most of our head / forehead) has developed a lot since, so much so that we don’t notice that many of our decisions and thought processes are actually legacies to our ancient past!
It is only when we DO notice that we can make a conscious choice to think differently, and act / choose differently too.

Our survivalist brain worries about resources - ALL resources, as a way to try to keep up safe, alive and well.
It is NOT able to discern about how big the threat may be - they are just a threat.
As a result, if you keeping thinking ‘small’, ‘less than’, ‘not enough’ of both yourself and your environment - you in effect set up your mind to EXPECT those negative results. You even setup the Universe to also find more obstacles and difficulties!
It is why many of my courses start off by working on people’s mindset and where we limit ourselves, v dive into problem solving!
