    29. Recent Science on Building Self-Esteem & Confidence with Tobias Johnson

    A mind-blowing episode on the recent science that many scientists in the 90’s or early 2000’s would have scoffed at on building self-esteem and confidence in a way that’s sustainable. Thought-provoking indeed. Tobias is an online coach who helps people transform their health & physique. He is also a published scientist, with his research focusing on how to overcome self-defeating behaviour. Tobias studied Neuroscience at the University of New South Wales, graduating with First Class Honours. Follow Tobias on Instagram @tobiasjohnson_ Please share this if you found value in it. It’s the only “fee” that I ask in return for giving out zero cost tools and practices.

    28. The Neuroscience to Building Discipline (in simple terms) with Tobias Johnson

    Building discipline is a very abstract idea, and often misunderstood for grit. Discipline is not grit (as Tobias alludes to). He shares a follow-on framework that can be used (backed by science) to help us build the disciplinary muscle so that we can gain more control over our life in a healthy way that adds wellbeing, rather than taking it away. Tobias is an online coach who helps people transform their health & physique. He is also a published scientist, with his research focusing on how to overcome self-defeating behaviour.
