Your Reticular Activating System Might Be Holding You Back From Real RESULTS

Your Reticular Activating System Might Be Holding You Back From Real RESULTS

Want RESULTS Faster? Your brain, and specifically how you’re allowing your brain to work, may be your biggest obstacle.

 

Definition of Reticular Activating System

The reticular activating system (RAS) connects to the base of your brain from your spinal cord. It is a compact bundle of neurons the size and shape of your pinkie finger. And it acts as a gatekeeper to the information around us.

Our conscious mind can “only” process 100 pieces of information every second. Our senses (eyes, ears, taste, touch) are wired directly to our RAS and are trying to send thousands of pieces of information to our brain every second. It is the job of our RAS to filter all this information. Your RAS only lets information in that it deems to be important.

 

But how does it know what’s important?

Check out the full video to learn more about the RAS. This might be the only thing standing between you and real RESULTS.
