Emily McDonald says your brain will not let you imagine goals that don't match your current identity. She references identity-based motivation theory, which shows your brain physically blocks you from dreaming up things that don't fit who you currently believe you are. This is why advice like "dream bigger" rarely works. The person hearing it doesn't have the identity yet, so their brain refuses to generate the bigger dream. The ceiling on what you can imagine is the same as the ceiling on who you think you are. McDonald says her own life only changed when she did the work on her self-concept first. Once her identity expanded, her brain started generating big goals on its own. She decided to get a PhD in neuroscience and went after a Nobel Prize. Identity comes first. The dreams come second. — Emily McDonald on the Codie Sanche's (@Codie_Sanchez) podcast PS: B2C health apps, SaaS, brand or info founders: We'll make 𝕏 your #1 organic acquisition channel in the next 90 days without you writing a single tweet.
