In the past decade, much has been discovered about the two thinking systems that govern our daily lives and the results we get. System 1 is the ‘default’ system. It’s a rapid response reflexive system. It’s intuitive, automatic, unconscious, protective and emotional. It’s geared for survival. System 2 is slower, more reflective, more conscious, more deliberative, and more sequential in its processes. It’s geared for evolution and expansion.

Most underachievement is driven by using the wrong system at the wrong time. Fast thinking is full of fear, loss aversion, faults and biases which have a pervasive influence on our thoughts, behaviours and results.

Achievement is driven by the benefits of slow thinking and knowing how the two systems work together to shape our judgments and decisions. Success comes from knowing when you should and shouldn’t trust your intuition.

You simply cannot rely on mindscape alone if your ambition is to create personal change, or achieve a goal of any kind during 2012 and beyond. If you are aware of the two thinking systems, and their respective background “commentaries”; you’ll have noticed that a choice toward growth automatically invokes a “commentary” which throws up a multitude of barriers and maligns your real abilities.

That’s why essential components designed to support your success must be transferred from your mindscape into a physical form. A form which is not subject to emotion, tiredness, distraction, misinformation and so on. Success means discovering how you can use different techniques to guard against the mental glitches that stifle achievement and often get us into trouble.
