It's observed that your brain can rewire itself based on your thoughts and it doesn't remain fixed once you reach adulthood. Its plasticity allows it to adapt even in old age - yes, you can teach an old dog new tricks. If you want to change your life, you need to rewire your brain. This rewiring is a continuous feedback loop. You can program your future self by focusing on your desired outcomes, and your brain will then unconsciously guide you toward them. For instance, if you ruminate negatively about an upcoming presentation, you're likely to perform poorly. You would perform significantly better if you had approached it with a positive mindset.

Others' opinions are based on their perspectives and not necessarily aligned with yours. While they may not affect your goals and values, they can provide different viewpoints that are worth consideration when you're open to new insights. It's about exercising independence and choosing your influences wisely. Be aware that even television, if left running in the background, can subtly shape your thoughts. Question its influence and consider if there are better ways to spend your time. Your environment can affect your mood, success, and psychological well-being.

It's important to consciously override these automatic behaviors. We're often so preoccupied that we rely on autopilot mode without considering who we really want to be.
