Positive Inputs

Choosing the right inputs for our consciousness is crucial for maintaining a positive state of mind. Dawson Church emphasizes the importance of treating attention as a precious currency, suggesting that what we focus on significantly impacts our consciousness. He explains that by curating positive inputs, such as love and kindness, we can influence our gene expression and overall well-being 1.

Treat your attention as though it is the most precious currency you have, because in fact, it is.
