I received an inspiring message from a supporter who shared how this podcast changed his life, helping him gain a deeper understanding of his emotions and the influences around him. It made me think about the powerful impact media has on our emotions, thoughts, and beliefs - and how essential it is to regain control of our reality by being more aware of these influences.Today, we delve into the concept of self-image and how it's not just by chance, but by design. We discuss the role of biases, personal experiences, and fictitious stories in shaping our worldview. Plus, we emphasize the importance of questioning the influences around us to make better decisions and form our own opinions. Join the conversation as we consider how the people, experiences, and things around us impact our thinking, feelings, and behavior. Let's empower ourselves to be influenced by ourselves, rather than external forces and media.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------(0:00:00) - Influencer Secrets(0:09:32) - Environment and Experience Shape Worldview(0:13:47) - Thoughts and Actions' Influence
