“PhilosophersNotes are the answer to one of the biggest problems we all seem to have when it comes to ingesting conscious media: Lack of time! Brian Johnson has found a way to brilliantly distill the essence of some of the most seminal and elevating reads. Philosopher’s Notes are essential in the great move toward personal and global transformation.”
“Brian: I want to really thank you for making my one hour commute to work this am such a rewarding experience by listening to a few of your teachings. I went through the Bhagavad Gita and a few others this am, although I read the Gita in my teens - I realize that I need to revisit it as it makes much more sense to me...Thank you so much for making my long commutes something I really look forward to now. I can't wait for my next drive.”
"So what is the difference between “power thinking” and “positive” thinking? The distinction is slight but profound. To me, people us positive thinking to pretend that everything is rosy, when they really believe that it’s not. With power thinking, we understand that everything is neutral, that nothing has meaning except for the meaning we give it, and that we are going to make up a story and give something it’s meaning.
This is the difference between positive thinking and power thinking. With positive thinking, people believe that their thoughts are true. Power thinking recognizes that our thoughts are not true, but since we’re making up a story anyway, we might as well make up a story that supports us. We don’t do this because our new thoughts are “true” in an absolute sense, but because they are ore useful to us and feel a heck of a lot better than nonsupportive ones." ~ T. Harv Eker
