The Science of Limiting Beliefs | Crystal Dilworth on Impact Theory

Amazing woman. Love how the smartest people are quiet and humble. I love that she's not selling her success story, like everyone is these days. And LOVE how she isn't a dropout of any kind, as is also very popular lately. People need to hear more about how education is necessary. Thanks for inviting such a wonderful guest :)

Tom, I BINGE watch on all your videos. I think I've watched 7 episodes in 1 night. I can't wait to put the kids to bed, just to dive into Impact Theory. Forget Netflix, Impact Theory is the place to be!

I really like this woman. Her attitude, she’s centered...articulate, and kind. We need more and more of this representation in the Sciences.

I watched so many videos of Impact theory.. and most of the guests have one belief in common and they have said it out loud.. and that is .. 'if u r not growing then u r dying'.. :) thank you Tom and team for this amazing effort in bringing these beautiful people to your show and let us get their view on life, success and happiness :)

This is what I took from this; I am limited by my expectations in the sense that my success is dependant on my expectation of the outcome of a task and that determines the attitude I take in regards to starting it. And I figured that my happiness is also limited by the expected outcome. This reminds me of Earl Nightingales quote. "If you expect success you will get success." What she mentioned is the missing formula to this attitude of life. Her drive and outlook in life is super inspiring. Thank you Dr. Dilworth

Interesting. At around 33:20 - 35:05, she starts going in depth about a concept that is basically identical to David Goggin`s cookie jar. Two very different people. Two very different worlds of success and accomplishment. Both share the same mental mechanism for pushing through tasks. Genius gives clues at times.

I find myself very intrigued by strong, successful people that have such a calm peace about them. I guess I associate success with some intense, competitive grind, but I also want to enjoy each moment and not be consumed by some future version I’m trying to get too.

Professional dancer and molecular neuroscientist. Fell in love with this video instantly. How do you put such diverse fields as these two and cultivate them together with equal passion? Salute to this woman.

She is amazingly intelligent. I've taken away so much from listening to her speak and it's only a 45 minute conversation. I can't imagine having such an intelligent mind! What a beautiful woman! One of my favorite things she says is; "We all have to live in a society that's been created for us and there's certain expectations when one is a contributing member of the community of humanity." I wish more people could comprehend that fact and be more respectful to other people and our world. LOVE MORE!

You know what hit me at the end Tom... how "may the force be with you" is so powerful and resonates on a visceral level. I love your "be legendary" at the end and see so much potential in that too 💪🙌

Great guest. Love the neuroscience behind understanding our hard wiring to utilize that knowledge to better help positively influence/guide/direct our actions. I find that understanding the immutable biological mechanism of our operating system provides greater confidence in fully embracing and executing those actions that develop our habits to bring about our best behaviors, attitudes and deliver the optimum outcomes we desire and focus upon. Awesome and empowering background and perspective. Dr. Dilworth's ability to utilize story telling to easily communicate the complexity of her subject mastery is a gift in its own right. Thanks Tom!

This is such a wakeup call. I am taking a step back and checking all the doors around me. Thanks Tom. Much needed.

"The Mountain...." at 14:39 is poetry in motion.

Please do more with her. Make a show with her or something. This is literally one of the best things I have ever watched. I mean this -seriously, PLEASE DO MORE WITH HER

I had a similar experience with my students. I quickly realized how impactful expectations and presuppositions are. Also, the removal of a cap/top on grades

This was the most mind-blowing video I have ever watched in a loooong while... to a point where I had to go back in the video to comprehend it.

Smashing through multiple paradigms in one talk. Wicked!

Oh My God! This is so amazing i found my self at the end of it so close to the monitor that i could barely see after ! It kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time ! And in the back of my mind all i could think of is how grateful i am for this content. Thank you Tom for what you are doing, for this beautiful show. And please never stop. Ps. I'm re-watching this one definitely a couple more times! Loved it !

The VR talk made me remember an experience I had with the Vive when playing a game called Raw Data. It's a wave shooter game where each level gets progressively difficult. I think around level 6, there are robot samurais. It isn't a level like the previous levels where you face large numbers, it's just one of them. On this level, I knew the round had started but I saw no enemies, I searched and searched but, nothing. Then I turned around and there it was, towering above me, around 6-7 ft high, this robot was standing with it's sword raised. In that moment, I dropped to my knees, cowering behind my raised hands, essentially begging for my life. It felt incredibly real in that single point in time, the only problem was the robot didn't care about my submission, it had no other object other than to kill me. And, in the game, I died. I had to take the headset off. I sat on the couch in silence for about fifteen minutes where I contemplated a few things. Firstly, that I really wasn't prepared to fight a war if I had to. Secondly, that if we had to fight robots, we'd most likely lose. And finally, for a moment, I truly understood the fragility of life. How vulnerable we all can be at any moment we don't expect it. I have no doubt if I saw the robot coming at me I wouldn't have been affected the same way. And that's the fragility of life, something we cannot see coming that blindsides us. It is incredible how my mind was disconnected from reality when playing that game, and yet it could still experience real world emotions.

Far out, absolutely loved this episode! Took a break from regular watching for a while because my negative bias was taking the information overload to unhelpful places of serious overthinking but I’m so glad I jumped back in for this episode. It was full of so many helpful analogies and metaphors for creating useful personal narratives and I’m so excited to put them into practice!! Thanks IT team
