As a survivor of family abuse I was always scared and hesitant. I decided that my purpose in life is to spread Love Joy and Happiness and I set out to do that. It made a huge difference. Instead of focusing on what others think I focus on putting out Happy vibes. It has increased my business network like nothing else. It's almost like an invisible force field against negativity :)
For real - this is why I recommend everyone take acting classes. You can choose to BE any character you want. Having a superhero alter ego is a small part of just playing a character in acting.
My life's journey is in phases...when I get to the end of a phase, I momentarily get stuck on where to go next. The stuck moments can be long or short. The Alter Ego has opened that window of understanding of how to get to the next phase...clothing myself with what I want to be over and over again. To me, it's a mindset shift I have found valuable to apply into my next phase of life. Thank you.🙏🙏
I'm really intrigued by this idea. I came up with 4 different alter egos for different areas of life and I will start putting them to the test tomorrow.
I started listening to his audiobook that you are referring to. I’m excited I was taking a break and decided to watch your video because it was short and I need to go to sleep. I’m excited about this whole process thank you for your work.
Wow, I've been halfway here.. I realised I need to start dressing better, started wearing watches again, I also have been trying new things that old me would never do like starting martial arts class.. Seems I've been on my way to make a new me, and an alter ego might be the shortcut I need
Incredible dialogue with tons of valuable insights, thanks gentlemen. While listening, two examples of exceptional practices of alters really popped in my mind which is pretty cool, Halloween and entertainers specifically musical artist and actors. My husband and I were discussing insecurities this morning that come up when attempting to transition out of careers into business. I mentioned the God Janice who’s image is that of two heads. After reading about it’s characteristics which are the capability of transitioning while looking at the past and future, well in short words at least its representation. And for some reason alter ego came to mind and our conversation so I was led to glorious TH-cam and thus your interview. We will most definitely be putting your advice into practice, you’re both awesome thanks again.
I really enjoyed this interview! The interviewer let the other person speak and asked useful questions, rather than speaking just to speak. Great interviewer and a fantastic interview to watch!
One interesting point that he made is that the pandemic and financial struggle hits men and women differently. Maybe because I’m single, but as a woman, I felt the exact same “I’m a failure” when my business closed during covid. I don’t think stress with finances is just a male brain/provider thing.
I agree with you - I am a business owner who was widowed shortly before Covid. I was forced to close my office for a few months and it had a huge effect on my finances. I was feeling like a failure too, it realized - hey - I had a big bump in the road, but I’m still here. Not a failure, but now more experienced than ever. And you are, too!
I’m a writer and I have an alter ego. I’m struggling to write because i feel like I can only write what she would write but i don’t know what that is. Can anyone help me?
Almost 50% of our brain is involved in visual processing. True. University of Rochester researchers found that more than half of the surface of our brains, called the cortex, is dedicated to processing visual stimuli.
The opposite, actually. It's more about letting out your untapped potential that you haven't noticed yourself. If you read the book, you'll understand.
My alter ego is gonna be clarke kent i drcided a few weeks ago, as i love all the supermen films, and i literally feel my life is basically clark kent, tho women liked me, but i never kept them cause i wasnt auperman lol, now i am, and i love my powers more than women 😂
I feel you, but honestly another way to think about it is that we all have access to all types of behaviors and emotions, there isn’t one that is specific to only one person. I think it’s helpful in looking at others to give ourselves permission to step into the parts of ourselves we feel that we can’t for some reason. Just my two cents.
This is a great point, but I think starting with a template can be helpful. I compare it to the process I was taught as a musician - copying the styles of different players you admire is how you develop your own unique style.
More than 50% is. I don’t claim to know the exact number but I’d say it’s close enough. Also, out of this whole conversation, is THIS the one and only thing you considered so important that you had to comment and be a Karen about it?… 😂
I was rejected from the military for a disability, but that doesn't mean I still can't be a soldier in my own right. I know just what to say, wear, and do, to convincingly wear a military uniform and be perceived as the soldier I know myself to be. And to those who wanna cry "stolen valor" at me, just remember you stole MY valor first. I'm just taking back what I've earned. And I'm a human trafficking survivor, so uh yeah I sure as fuck earned it, even the purple heart medal I wear to signify my wounds from being mercilessly beaten and r*ped for over a year. Die mad about it, or stand at attention and salute me. o7
very interesting talk, but sometimes this guy said things that made me roll my eyes. I wish there was a woman or someone who's not a straight white man talking about this because there is room for more nuanced conversation.
I'm gonna get flammed for this but I think the point of the bible is for people to learn how to create a perfect alter ego to strive towards. To be Christlike.
The motivation behind an alter ego I think is the game changer.

I love that “ it’s like an invisible field against negativity” 👌
Fundamentally he’s speaking about using “acting as if” to raise your energetic vibration to improve personal performance.
this is the way
It seems weird but thats how you start the process

Brilliant talk ! 👏 Our clothing lives in context to with the skills we use. I’m going to upgrade the wardrobe 👍
Napoleon Hill also had a board of directors in his mind that he would chair meetings with

I just ordered a wig today then found this. I didn’t realise it was that much of a thing. I think my therapist was concerned when I told him. 😏
Lol your therapist isn't aware your about to be great
I totally did the glasses thing too subconsciously xD. Great episode, Chris. I am loving the Learn tab in your website. Thank you!
I really enjoyed this interview! The interviewer let the other person speak and asked useful questions, rather than speaking just to speak. Great interviewer and a fantastic interview to watch!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Not even half way through the video and I've just brought the book on audible. Love the subject, love the energy. Cheers!
It's like how it's so easy to give other great advice but so hard to take your own advice!
Great interview. Highly recommend the booK. The Alter Ego Effect. Personal and professional game changer.
Dj Snake used that too. He started wearing sunglasses and since he is one of the DJs in the world !!

It's because you're single

@TheAlexDouglas I had the same issue. Lost my business & my fiance died because a drunk hit him.
This isn't only a single person issue.
This is great 😃 I rock up as "Rick", in short he's more productive than me, fearless, gets the job done and gets tangible results ✅😎
You should do another one with Todd now that its been 2 years
Hmm, maybe we will! Thanks for the suggestion! 🙂
Yess
Funny thing I noticed, both are wearing the same pair of glasses, literally!
This reminds me of the Mastermind that Napoleon Hill used. Brilliant!
Great show!!!!

Calling the alter ego 10:00
Pretty interesting
Fake it till you make it

A minor correction in the description. The name of the book is The Alter Ego "Effect" not "Affect".
Thanks for the video :)
Cheers
Fixed! Thanks for pointing that out. Cheers!

Finished
Thanks chris, your smile is a plus

How to pick my board of directors... hmmm

Beginning was to long get to the point
damn
It sounds like you are taking on others personality. I say form your own alter; from your life experiences. Your mind has infinite resources.

75% of the brain is not and i repeate is not dedicated to the visual cortex

This sounds like DID disorder. You should seek psychiatric help
very interesting talk, but sometimes this guy said things that made me roll my eyes. I wish there was a woman or someone who's not a straight white man talking about this because there is room for more nuanced conversation.
Lol get that woke shit outta here

Umm.. elaborate please..? How does gender or race have anything to do with anything when it comes to alter ego?… 🤦🏻♀️
Dude what’s with the fake smile, if you don’t want to smile. Just keep a straight face. It looks creepy.

Thank you!! Thought I was the only one bothered by it lol
Unwatchable, the guy on meth with less hair depends too much on add too much of drugs to feel confident
your insane
I'm gonna get flammed for this but I think the point of the bible is for people to learn how to create a perfect alter ego to strive towards. To be Christlike.
You’ll get flames from atheist, or lukewarm Christian’s but not from real believers
Great observation.
