Episode 188: Change Your Life, Not Your Thoughts with Blair Dunkley
November 13, 2024
We’ve all heard the ‘find your why’ advice, but what if it’s not about that at all? Today, my guest is Blair Dunkley, and I’ll keep it simple: this conversation is going to be mind-filling, mind-expanding, and honestly, mind-blowing.
Blair’s here to break down how we can improve our lives by shifting our behaviors with research-backed methods that are both impactful and surprisingly simple. So, get ready to pay attention and maybe even take some notes.
In this episode, he breaks down the difference between mindset and life skills—and why mindset alone just doesn’t cut it. His mind models offer a fresh way of thinking that can help you through life’s transitions, big or small.
We discussed:
- The difference between mindset vs. life skills
- Why studies question the effectiveness of mindset
- Blair’s challenge to the “find your why” framework
- Why we often blur the line between remembering and reliving
- Using mind models to manage stress and solve problems
