Becoming a F.A.T.E Maker means taking back control of your life by taking control of your thoughts, you have to be the one in charge. In this book, Charles Weaver will show you how we can change our long-term fate by taking small steps every day, and inspire you to become someone who will never stop dreaming and fighting for what they believe in. We'll see how we can:
- Identify our Elephant Head
Change the internal monologue we have in order to differentiate between lies and truths, harnessing the power of our brain's capacity for self-improvement and growth.
- Embrace the significance of circadian rhythms for our overall health and well-being, recognizing the importance of maintaining proper sleep patterns and daily routines.
- Understand the concept of regression toward the mean by Peter Keating, acknowledging that extreme outcomes tend to move towards the average over time and avoiding making decisions based solely on short-term fluctuations.
- Guard against falling into the trap of the Narrative Fallacy, which leads us to construct overly simplistic and misleading stories to explain complex events, and instead, seek a deeper understanding of the true causality behind outcomes.
- Learn from Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, Fast and Slow" to recognize and balance the two modes of thinking in our mind, the intuitive and emotional System 1, and the deliberate and logical System 2, ensuring we make well-informed decisions.
- Be mindful of the Reason Respecting Tendency, which urges us to justify our actions and beliefs based on rational reasons, even if those reasons were not the actual drivers of our decisions.
- Value the importance of seeking Dis-confirming Evidence, actively looking for information that challenges our beliefs and hypotheses, promoting intellectual humility and preventing confirmation bias.
- Acknowledge the influence of Availability Bias, which leads us to rely heavily on information that is easily accessible and readily available, and strive to consider a broader range of perspectives and data.
- Confront "Our Problem with the Narrative," recognizing how societal conditioning and conformity have constrained our aspirations and ambitions, and proactively break free from these limitations to reclaim our dreams and pursue a fulfilling life.
Charles Weaver teaches us how Wilma Rundolph, though thought to be crippled for life, not only became the first African American female win multiple gold medals in the Olympics, but also the first African American female to eat at the governor's table versus serving it. How Claude Jolivette, the grandson of slaves, became a multimillionaire, though he couldn't drink out of the same water fountain as most of the customers he served. And many more just like them. He teaches about how the mind can actually heal physical ailments, stimulate the growth of physical strength without moving, "disadvantageous advantages" and "elephant head." After reading this book you will either have your confidence reinforced or ignited.
