One Thing to Know About Your Brain That Will Change Your Life | Ann Herrmann-Nehdi | TEDxTryon 

Quote from my father: "Are you going to control your mind, or is it going to control you?"

I had the honor and privilege to study with your dad at the "NEW" training center back in the early 90's. One of the absolute highlights of my life! You do him proud!

Take control of your blind spots, beware of your patterns, invite new ones in, discover your own brain and abilities,

The example of raincoat which was made in Vietnam served as an evidence why we need to have diverse perspectives. Thanks for your presentation

Some comments in here don't appreciate what she says.. I liked this talk.. Thanks Ann for the talk.

Did not watch the video yet but will say this, ‘It’s knowledge of the truth that will set our minds right, knowledge that is hidden & or obscured from our sight/insight. We have forgotten to trust the truth within ourselves so we are being led astray be powers of darkness that we do not recognise.

A natural public speaker

All my life I have had my over controlling parents run my life! Telling me what I can and can't do with my life, what to wear, when to shower, who I should be friends with, and that I can't get married to the woman of my dreams 😭😭😭😭 I wish I could have seen this ted talk years ago!!!

Well done. The first step to any improvements is to see the value of it. Everybody should do an honest reality-check once in awhile. It could prevent a train wreck.

Society is many brains and many minds and their thought processes ...

Mind Hack 9:22 The Whole Brain Thinking Model: payoff, process, people, possibilities You'll get 66% more efficient if you use all four components of your brain! Ask yourself: 1. WHAT is really important to get into the payoff mode 2. HOW am I gonna do it to get into the process mode 3. WHO needs to get involved to get into the people mode 4. WHAT IF this or that happens to get into the possibilities mode

Excellent!! Such a great message told in a thoroughly engaging and compelling way.

Great stuff Ann. I am a student of this subject area. You did a great job of taking tons of material and providing a practical approach to incorporating it into our lives.

Thankyou for a great presentation! The line about being the passenger in the back seat of the car and not having control of your brain really struck something in me.

You're wonderful Ann ! Few minutes for a huge message...

The piece of information I enjoyed the most was that your dad managed to wire up your boyfriend as well. I can imagine he was like "In order for you to keep seeing my daugher, you must agree to get wired up" 🤣😂

Gratitude 💗🤍✨

If your mind is blown by the idea that you will tend to make assumptions and other people's perspectives can be useful, then this will blow your mind.

Ah! Well done. Food for thought, useful tips, and several good laughs. Thank you.

Thank you Ann😊

Great information, well presented. Thank you! Would it surprise you to know that there are accurate, definable, and most importantly, universal facial features that can instantly reveal those mental processing tendencies you described? The Numbers person, the People Person, the Process Person? I find the human brain to be fascinating…

Pays off to you afrer the end, Thanks for deductive and motivational advice.

how do you stimulate your brain - art, music and massage or something?

On average we spend ~400 minutes a day looking at screens. That's 7 months of your life.

Nice talk Ann. Congratulations!

What a delightful talk!

Has anyone added up how much of your time advertising takes out of every hour you spend watching tv... 21minutes every hour is taken up by ads. this means they waste hours and hours of our time. we should be paid more for that time for what we get in return. How much do you get paid per hour? the time you spend watching their ads makes every show really expensive to watch, money wise and time wise. A lot of time. if you have foxtel as well even worse because you are already paying to watch repeat after repeat....I know, off topic but it just made me think about other ways ours brains time gets wasted. Interesting talk. Thank you.

Great job! I learned a lot. Thanks.

Thanks Ann. As usual very enlightening and thought provoking!

4 Questions: What is really important to get the payoff? How am I going to do it? Who needs to get involved? What are the possibilities?

It dawns on me omg ! thank you very much .

what an amazing talk !

Such a great speaker

This show is about a treatment used to help heal some mental health chalenges! The treatment is called "Deep Trans-cranial Magnetic Stmiulation!

Nice talk Ann, thank you, and thank you had visited Vietnam.

Interesting ... thank you

Go META on your mind!

Excellent!

Congress needs to hear this once a year.. :)

I really appreciate it, thanks a lot.

wow so right

Great talk 💕😃

The best TED of the year!

Awesome!

Amazing!! Excellent talk!! And crucial information !!!

In short. Using your mind has a new name : mind hack. My view is that Most people are in auto pilot..therefore most people walk the same roads. But in this day and age where the norm is manipulated with stripped down yoga, travelling the world to avoid travelling yourself and fake safe wanderlust..fake copy paste 'open mindedness identities..makes people think they are different..whilst collectively all doing and being the same.. stuck in cognitive bias and copy paste lives. The level of self manipulation is insane.

Very well done Ann!

This was truely inspirational !!!!!!

Very interesting, thank you!

my brains literally learning how to hack itself rn

this is very usefulll

wish i had a dollar for every sudoscieve talk ted gives.

What/How/Who/What if

Build in blind spot into whatever it is I’m doing. Manage your blind spots by building them in, be intentional about where your thinking time goes, choose to wake up that lazy brain of yours. Dnt really understand wat tis means.... Ask & hopefully someone can help by giving me some examples so that I can relate. Thank you.

Good talk, thank you for upload !!

How did she end up bringing the team out of their autopilot again? Think i miss that bit...

Ooh, that was good. It reminds me of Edward de Bono's Six frames for thinking about information.

Do you have evidence to support that statement?

Wow such a great talk!!!

awesome!!

Good

Mindfullness and start thinking out of the box. It's not your brain, it's your mind.

Man, where are the people which give Summary in comment. We need them 😤

Superb ❤️

we all know what the window was for...

Is there a book or website to learn more?

For many years I have heard two conflicting messages: 1..."take charge of your life" from the self-help industry, ...and... 2..."surrender control of your life to your higher power/God." from spiritual teachers. Which one of these applies to hacking our lazy brains?

what was the one thing ???

Some of the people in the audience probably fell asleep during the presentation lol.

Hey Anne - Did I ever run you through our course on influence and persuasion which looks at dual process thinking?

Voweee 🤫 awakening

She's lovely!😁👍

good ideas but generally too general

I'm a bit confused because, if I remember correctly, we are at best when we "flow", if this is so then why do we need to "hack" our brains for?

Please add subtitles in Russian

I'm from a police and security military background and I know that the subject of exorcism to these people could be very significant you know ...it's interesting that in some instances the way the persons within these roles could be changed significantly as it has lots to do with mindset behaviour and discipline ...

13:00 Answer: Only on RU-vid. Funny.

long live veitnam. They brougth us to thinking. for best results use daily

No Left sound ?

TL;DW: USE YOUR DANG BRAINS, PEOPLE

I do NLP...not much info here

sUPERB!!!

13:10

188 people who down-voted are still stuck in autopilot mode.

Just live. Don't listen to so-called experts. They are not always good examples to listen to. They don't know what they are talking about.

Summary of 15 mins of rambling talk : Think Outside the Box.

she's lovely

Ok. Important, but super dry. Repetition of familiar concepts and missing new way of expressing it to make it profound to watch...

Thinking! We live in the future.....But We? Are only ever Aware Of the Past......Our Perception is response Time strapped and because of this We are Not, I am! Because the entity You Perceive is in a Space Survival Suit.....The traveller (Astronaut) in the Spacesuit is not visible to the you in the Spacesuit. What is the connectivity between the Traveller (You) in The Spacesuit and the Perception survival Controller.......Something is Survival instinctive connected to The Spacesuit traveller (You).....There appears to be a command centre (NASA Style Houston).....in constant contact with the Wet Food Consuming Spacesuit and confined traveller (You), Which is not Time Strapped And is Spontaneous with The Electromagnetic Universe Content Of Unlimited Nothing! Now That Is You! Unlimited Potential for Understanding Of Understanding about Unlimited Nothing. Which conclusions dictate is the real You!? RDR

9:32

😍

At 13:48 she says all the main points. I'm sorry to say that this talk is pretty worthless considering it's lenght. No hacks here, no new science, nothing revealing (at least for logically thinking people). For normal, healthy people the only tip from Ann is "be aware, be self conscious, don't use autopilot that much". For the people that want to hack their brains the most - the ones with depression or diseases that impede thinking and cognivite abilities it's absolutely useless. The most essential thing to know about the brain is that our mood and cognitive abilities depend on neurochemical balance (specifically neurotransmitters), overall good health, diet, physical activity, a bit of social interaction and lastly - influence of environment.

Gadi ka handle humare hath me hona chahiye(we should control our brain)

Our brain is incredibly lazy, how true?

Most ice cream in US contains antifreeze.

This boils down to "observe yourself and step outside of the routine". I was expecting a more "wow" insight - - it's fairly obvious, and doesn't take a PhD, to realize that to keep life interesting you need to do new things, meet new people, to ask questions, to imagine and wonder and explore, and this all takes a certain level of self-awareness - - basic stuff for a healthy life. Nothing new here.

it changed your life, and now you want money to share, sure, and i have have to choose to pay you or all the others

Can't control our brain??we can't control our bodices!

Her: "And this equipment, EEG, an..." Me: *Give me the plant*

One thing about your body ,that will change your life. Go to paleo /keto diet Brain is not the only important part of our body.
