What happened to your intro? Bring it back imo.

[@justanotherfella4585]

Just a nit pick but at the end of the 2nd paragraph there’s no need for the question mark. You’re describing the examination of a question not actually making an enquiry. I’m now wondering how much ¥$€* I’m to suffer for this…

Sounds like a quote from Freddie Mercury at one of the Earl's Courts concerts in 1977 :))))

"The tendency we all have to complain about results we're not getting from effort we're not making". Shot to the heart .

[@Elnino2910]

What a guest! Prof Peters is incredible. The way he explains/dumbs down things to make it easier for everyone to understand is excellent, it speaks volumes about the depths of his knowledge. The chimp paradox is one of the greatest books of recent times. Can’t wait to watch this one Chris.

[@cradleinthewoods]

Chris's podcasts, backed by science, are like a one-two punch for truly getting to know ourselves and making positive changes. This hits home especially for those of us in the Philippines, where quality mental health resources are as rare as a unicorn. And without a doubt, these podcasts are turning the whole wellness and fitness game on its head - in the best possible way!

[@TheMightyMidget]

I really feel this. It’s like the kick up the arse you need to start learning and exploring who you want to be. Also if you have the time, try to get hold of the chimp paradox and read it. You’ll have a much deeper understanding of this philosophy

[@edacheson8540]

25:27 As a parent who has lost 2 children, that's a very good way to describe it.

[@jack_woodhams]

Before listening to the full thing I want to say- Professor Steven Peters has the most valuable teachings the internet has to offer and I believe a true face to face podcast is due! I am currently reading a path through the jungle and regularly analyse and pick up on the chimp paradox in every episode you do from either You or Your guest. This must be pushed more !

[@Apollothecrowing]

I immediately looked on audible for his book, "A Path Through the Jungle" and its included with membership! 😄

[@ericdraven3654]

This podcast is changing my Life. Cheers from Spain.

[@amyclaire3873]

I’ve genuinely applied things I’ve learned from The Chimp Paradox, and it’s really helped me. It’s one of my favourite books. Dr Steve is a legend and seems like a genuinely lovely bloke too ☺️

[@DanielMorgan1]

Same!!! The book that catalysed my self development journey 👌

[@Fanaro]

This is a guy who's wholesome.

[@justanotherfella4585]

10:15 “the inside texture of their own mind” As someone who is having mental health issues at the moment I’ve got to say that’s a startling turn of phrase. Quite beautiful really.

[@advocate1563]

Wonderful man who, as a psychiatrist, understands the brain functioning. Went on his 8 week Chimp Management course. Best value for psychological value I've ever had. His secod book Path Through the Jungle highly recommended if you want to DIY.

[@millertas]

Lost my son in 2008 when he was nearly 19. Endorse Dr. Peters' sentiment 100% (ref. 25:55).

[@samantha-kemp-therapy]

I love this man -he's so engaging

[@gchristopherw]

Chris you are becoming a world class podcaster. Your sensibilities that guide your interactions with guests are closely in alignment with my own. I can only say this about one other. Ben Fatto!

[@n8sterling727]

Fantastic episode per usual. This sounds very similar to IFS therapy created by Richard Schwartz

[@tompatrick795]

Chris, I really appreciate YOU! Great podcast, and I think I will have to check out these books. The chimp made me do it! Why didn’t I figure this out already? I think you are great at what you do and are creating,and I love the thought content that you make accessible to people like me. It helps me view things differently. Cheers.

[@nikolaizulu2873]

Voltaire said something like "Appreciation makes the qualities of others, our own as well" & I appreciate you tompatrick 😂

[@scottgaree7667]

The chimp is you. Does no good to blame yourself. 🙂

[@gracieidavis]

Have listened to Hormozi on repeat and next thing I know there’s a new podcast! Thank you so much for pursuing/achieving greatness and sharing it with us. ❤

[@MonaMarMag]

The main question in life : " To be or to have " The choice is ours .

[@dianedean4170]

🎉😂❤ Thanks so much, Chris, for your fascinating and informative conversation with Dr. Peters. Acceptance of our strengths and weaknesses are based on listening to each other and in turn this listening is based on trusting ourselves. Life is living, loving and learning. Intelligence is based on selection. Choose wisely❤😂🎉

[@LifeGameDesign]

A mindset switch that has helped me understand this "Chimp system" on a more deeper and importantly a more human level is understanding the "Chimp" as our Inner Child Everytime Peter says Chimp I replace that with Inner child. If the voice in our heads is our inner child what is our conscious mind? Obviously a Child always needs a Parent to guide them to become their best self. We have the conscious will of a parent and the subconscious mind of a child. Our conscious will (parent) determines our environment and our enviroment detemines our behavior / subconscious mind (child)

[@inshellskitchen1743]

Recommended to watch by my GP deffo worth giving a view.

[@heliosending]

Me: I don't appreciate being compared to a chimp. Steve Peters: That's your chimp brain talking.

[@scottgaree7667]

Interesting overlay on Kahneman's fast brain, slow brain concept.

[@schalkvandermerwe3838]

Oh rad. I have often 'roboticised' my actions in order to get started with something [doing the robot, but not on the dancefloor, but at your desk]... So cool to now learn about Dr. Peters' work. Now I know who the other one is - the Chimp! Must fight. Win.

[@guydebord397]

The righteous and wise elderly rightfully patronizing or condescending to their youth in the most scornful and deliberate harangue mode - did it nicely (I wish I’d get to that age and get to know my own youth haranguing mode 😂). I’m 27 btw- dead serious. But Chris took it like a champ! Love the channel.

[@AdamJones381]

I'm surprised that Peters isn't more well known

[@patrickm8316]

Beautiful

[@TheisBrandon]

Really very good

[@osirisgolad]

He certainly seems to have helped Ronnie O'Sullivan to get more of a grip on his brain under pressure.

[@samuelcampbell5819]

No snooker fans? Gotta thank this man for Ronnie O'Sullivan.

[@daveyjones7391]

Big fan right here!

[@AdamJones381]

Got into Peters from Ronnie!

[@tuckerdixon8032]

Chimp system is a good album title

[@igormichetti]

I would def listen to a band called chimp system

[@vanessanesener4028]

I turned my monkey into my inner child into my little sibling and it works fine. We're friends now. :)

[@TheFlyLife]

58:25 David Goggins beat his monkey into submission years ago. 😅 I picture his monkey in a cage quietly asking Goggins for permission for input. 😉

[@C.Gieskes]

What's going on there Chris 45:15. My chimp told me to do this😂

[@bobreilly7402]

I would love to ask, is there any opportunity to train the chimp brain, or is it even worth the attempt? Is the game purely to manage the chimp and accept it for what it is, or fundamentally change it?

[@SweetFeetSHIPP]

I would be very interested to know others opinions regarding this question. If I may, I think the answer to your question (as cliche as it sounds) is entirely up to you. If I'm able to train my chimp brain, I would want it to reflect the truest version of myself; separated from the chimp and the jungle (my environment). Personally, I think it's a life-long game 😎

[@ianpatton632]

You only train and manage the chimp, over time the human part starts to predominate, the chimp never goes away, with training it just has a significantly lesser disruptive presence

[@peripheralparadox4218]

Every evil act seems to stem from instincts of survival. It seems every instinct has a scale of function and non-functionality. It’s our instinct to eat that causes obesity. A serial killers desire to kill comes from an instinct to be powerful or possessive. You can eat in a healthy or unhealthy way. You can attain power in a healthy or unhealthy way.

[@w1cked001]

Does this have any relation with Kanheman's Thinking Fast and Slow? Seems similar mechanisms.

[@scottgaree7667]

I came to the comments wondering if anyone else had the same thought. Two perspectives on the same neuro-behavioral dualities in the pink stuff. It's that invisible gorilla that's the missing link between them!

[@Kjfree44]

Ngl I thought he was the guy from the meme at first

[@GavinCee]

he is

[@jeremywvarietyofviewpoints3104]

Does this relate to Kahneman's system 1 and system 2 thinking?

[@alexbakle5750]

yeah I was thinking the same thing. It's apparently the same concept but with different terms.

[@scottgaree7667]

@@alexbakle5750 It's been awhile, but I don't recall Kahneman having the concept of negotiation with system 1.

[@jaygatsby1]

My chimp pressed the 1.75X button.

[@LifeGameDesign]

Here is a transcript of the conversation where I replaced "chimp" with "inner child" Speaker 1 One of the elite athletes I worked with once said, how do I kill my Inner Child? And I'm thinking, you've really not got this (idea right) because my Inner child (system) is my best friend. Because as long as I understand what he's trying to tell me, what is the ways communicating, then I can use that and work as a team. ( parent child relationship)

I began my investment journey at the age of 33, primarily through hard work and dedication. I am to share that my passive income exceeded $100k in a single month for the first time. This success reinforces the importance of the advice mentioned earlier. It is not about achieving quick wealth, but rather ensuring long-term financial prosperity.

[@brittanynicolette9473]

Investors should exercise caution with their exposure and exercise caution when considering new investments, particularly during periods of inflation. It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or trusted advisor in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields.

[@alicebenard5713]

This is superb! Information, as a noob it gets quite to handle all of this and staying informed is a major cause, how do you go about this are you a pro investor?

[@philipcollen482]

Through closely monitoring the performance of my portfolio, I have witnessed a remarkable growth of $500k in just the past two quarters. This experience has shed light on why experienced traders are able to generate substantial returns even in lesser-known markets. It is safe to say that this bold decision has been one of the most impactful choices I have made recently.

[@SophiaBint-wj8wn]

wow that’s stirring! Do you mind connecting me to your advisor please. I desperately need one to diversified my portfolio.

[@philipcollen482]

My advisor is *Nolan Velden Brent* , a renowned figure in his line of work. I recommend researching his credentials further. He has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.

[@prototype0398]

Huh!

[@Fanaro]

This is a guy who cares.

[@big_red_machine3547]

This was one of those podcasts that flopped. Just didn’t have any substance. Not your fault Chris

[@pjennings72]

That’s crazy. Sounds like you REALLY need to listen to this again.

[@johnnyjon440]

Sorry bro no one can “ hack their brain” you need a savior , Jesus Christ is the Only one that can save you

[@justbreathe8835]

Your religion hacked yours

[@squabdiggity743]

This is actually a really common misconception. In reality, Jesus Christ was just some douchebag. The real savior is Ronnie James Dio. Peace and Love brother!
