- Reward based learning is a way to avoid the pain of doing something
- To concentrate and focus
- Joy arrises from being curious and attentive
- Curiosity can naturally lead to concentration
- Note: before starting work prompt to think about it curiously to generate concentration
- If we become stressed then....
- Become interested and curious about the feeling then notice the joy and concentration that comes from it
- Every time we get involved in a bad behaviour we add more fuel to the fire
- "Where energy flows, energy goes"
- How to stop bad behaviour
- By bringing attention to the moment we can train ourselves to walk the other way
- You're at a cross road, do you want to move towards the person you want to be or away?
- -1
- +1
- Consider everything you do as -1 or +1 in the way you want to go - this is similar to ACT therapy.
