[00:00:00]Right now, your brain is writing a story about who you are and editing out everything that contradicts it. No one told you the story was constructed. This is called the self-concept schema.

[00:00:12]Neuroscientist Stanley Klein [music] showed that the medial prefrontal cortex stitches fragmented memories into a continuous identity narrative, then uses that narrative to filter what you perceive, remember, and believe is possible. The self is not discovered. It is assembled, and the assembly has rules. Notice one moment today where you dismissed something as [music] not like me. That dismissal is the schema running. That is your medial prefrontal cortex protecting its own story. Now you can see the editor. Follow Harmonic Abundance for the science behind what you already sense is true.
