It’s Tuesdays with Tata! Today, we pick apart an old Hebrew proverb, and mine it for a great lesson that’s as timely today as it was in those days.

This episode will help us learn to break the cycle of fear and anxiety, cultivate calm, and make a huge difference in our quality of life. Scripture: II Corinthians 1:8-11 This episode was inspired by Jon Swanson...

It’s Self-Brain Surgery Saturday! Today’s operation is the Thought Autopsy. It’s a super-powerful technique you can use to look critically at what your were thinking about during times that were particularly good or bad, successful or not, happy or sad. Thoughts become things, and learning to go back and retrospectively dissecting our own thinking during such times is a superpower for learning how to replicate the good and avoid the bad outcomes next time we encounter a similar circumstance. Scr...

Are We Managing Our Lives, or Really Changing Them? Our last good decision for September is to commit to real change, instead of just managing things over and over! I see people in my office every week who are hurting, and often times I can offer them a fix for their problem. But some folks just want to manage their pain, take a pill, or do something that's quicker and less scary than having surgery. This episode was inspired by Tommy Walker's song Water Into Wine, which was written out of the s...

Storms are going to come in life. How we prepare for them makes all the difference. When my last book came out, I did a podcast interview in which I was asked a strange question: When did Noah build the arc? The answer: Before it started raining. Look, storms happen in life. Hard times come, but when things get hard, strong people get busy. And when great opportunities come, we need to be ready. Let’s pick up the hammer and start building that arc. Because the rain is coming. Because something g...

It’s Mind Change Monday! (Back tomorrow with a brand-new Tuesdays with Tata!) Today I want to remind you that it’s okay to say no. Here’s Self-Brain Surgery Tip #10: No is not a cuss word. You need margin and space to be efficient and do the things you commit to well. It’s better to say no kindly than to say yes and then let more important things suffer.

Synapses are where the business of the nervous system happens. Lately, we’ve been talking about the basics of self-brain surgery to learn how to think about our thinking, and the ideas behind my new book, Hope is the First Dose. But this isn’t just some “self-help” or motivational speaker-type thing. Because the vast majority of your life, the decisions you make, the relationships you have, the things you accomplish or strive for come out of how you think: your attitudes, your thought patterns. ...

Do you find yourself wondering where God is? Wondering why God seems to be taking forever to answer your prayers? Wondering why everything seems so hard all the time?

Self-Brain Surgery Tip #7:(It's Tata's birthday! Email him if you'd like to say hello! [email protected] ) When you make a mistake, admit it to yourself and correct it going forward. Excuses build the false idea in your brain that it’s not really your fault, and you’ll be more likely to do it again. Own it, recalibrate, move forward and you’ll be happier!
