This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. You can train your mind to do what you want it to. Collaboration with your mind is crucial, the pictures you make in your head and the words that you say to yourself influence how you feel. So tell yourself better things, stretch your mind – make the unfamiliar, familiar.

Marisa Peer is a world renowned speaker, therapist, and best-selling author with nearly three decades of experience. Named named Best British Therapist by Men's Health magazine and featured in Tatler's Guide to Britain's 250 Best Doctors, she uses her experiences treating patients including rock stars, CEOs, Olympic athletes, and Oscar winning actors to inform her life-changing speeches and lectures. She has been voted best speaker at numerous conferences including The Yes Group London and the Women in Business Superconference.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

  • SUMMARY 1. Your mind does what it thinks are in your best interested. if you are not getting what you want then you are not collaborating with your mind properly. 2. Your mind is hard wired to move towards pleasure and avoid pain. 3. All your feelings are down to two things 1. the pictures you make in your head and 2. the words you say to yourself. 4. Your mind loves the familiar. If you want to succeed you have to make what is familiar unfamiliar and vice versa. Simple but great.

    To have a fantastic collaboration with yourself: 1. Tell your mind what you want. 2. Link massive pleasure to going there and pain to not going there. 3. Change the pictures and the words. Using very detailed words. 4. Make the familiar unfamiliar and the unfamiliar familiar. 5. Make Self Belief so normal to you that everyone believes in you too. ✨ Your potential expands beyond what you can imagine.
  • Watching this kind of talk every day makes you realize how magical life is by believing that everything is possible and there is always good from the bad.

    She's right. That is how I became a writing genuis, with steady writing success. I tell my mind. "I am a writing genius, I was born to do this, I want this book done ASAP, I want these poems mastered, submissions sent out, I feel relieved when I do this, I don't feel like a nobody, I feel that the world can hear me, I am saving my life, I am doing what I have always dreamed of doing." I speak these words, and also say them outloud and write alot of daily. I also visualize myself doing every step of it. My morning schedule is like this: watch my favorite reminders videos for my spiritual growth 2. I go for a walk, meditate and visualize my goal and speak to the universe 3. I write down what I want to achieve for the day 4. I take vitamines, play music for my brain and drink and eat foods for my brain. 5. I read work, edit work, submit work. 6. I read, and study This is my routine, and this how I keep steady writing success. 😊

    “I want this, I’ve chosen this”...I like this.
  • @TheWildbill242
    Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.
  • @monicaperiade
    very specific not only to the words but to the thoughts you repeat allowing in your mind
  • @kelvinseth6045
    I honestly think this the most well explained Ted Talk ever, I really love when people speak on stage focused on the idea they want to share as oppose to some cases where they try to be funny or tell you about their dog and personal life.
  • @waterdragon5418
    This is another Lady at the top of her game in her career. Her ability to simplify and relay these concepts so clearly is genius.
  • @fernando.ro92
    What a brilliant woman. Look at her body language: the confidance in a calm way, but it is spilling over
  • @Brookelewistv
    This explains the law of attraction. Think about what you WANT to happen, not dreading and thinking of exactly what you DONT want, what you think of will come
  • @sujansingh390
    I remembered a book "The power of the Subconscious mind " but you interpreted so differently. Thanks for sharing your wisdom on how mind can be changed.
  • @kellysmith9756
    Marisa every word is a diamond and you are walking your talk, you radiate self belief. Thank you
  • Around one and a half year ago I got into this talk and knew Dame Marisa Peer. I felt so interested in what she explains that I started to loof for more videos of hers and I ended up getting one of her methods to improve self-steem. It has dramatically improved my life, it has helped me to release myself from several burdens from my past. I trust I will be able to thank her personally one day. Until then, I thank her here, the video from where it all started for me. Thank you very much Marisa Peer.
  • Mind Training, our brain and mind are powerful beyond our comprehension, This is such important information, it should be part of the curriculum of every school and the coaching profession needs to be trained, no one should be left without this knowledge,
  • @TheSplendidus
    I think that is one of the best TED talk in terms of performance. Excellent speaking/communication skills. I could watch/listen over and over again.
  • @Tolu1994
    She actually has the soothing voice of a therapist. Side note: great talk
