If You Keep Trying, It Will Eventually Click
For Theology Thursday today, we're going to talk about how to master your mind, overcome negative thinking, structurally improve your brain, and the process of overcoming shame and doubt. When it all clicks, you'll realize that you've become a master self-brain surgeon, but it didn't happen overnight.
This episode is dedicated to my professor and friend, Dr. Takanori Fukushima (1942-2024).
