Your brain’s filter confirms whatever you believe—threat, scarcity, or possibility. Chapter 6 shows how to reprogram it with visualization and identity scripts.
The story
Your mind eats inputs like candy, then spits out noise
Your Reticular system plays bouncer, guarding the screen
You call it “my life,” but it is still a filtered choice
And half your whole world is whatever gets seen
Before: you walk through the same city as everyone else, yet your brain’s filter highlights threat, scarcity, status, comparison. Not because you are “broken,” but because conscious attention has limited bandwidth, so your RAS runs the feed. Whatever your deepest beliefs are, it will dutifully confirm. Cute. Also inconvenient.
After: Chapter 6 of Attila B. Horvath’s *The Journey – I wish I knew this before I was 21* reads like a user manual for refactoring that filter. He connects selective perception to Jung’s individuation, becoming *you*, not a bundled subscription of collective expectations. He leans on visualization as a practical “set the pointer” tool: vivid, repeated mental imagery tells the RAS, “This matters, allocate resources.”
Can you imagine the difference between “I’m not the kind of person who succeeds” and a consciously chosen identity script? Spurgeon’s Law shows how fast a lie can sprint; your filter will back it up with “evidence” all day.
Attila even nods to founders-era providence and freedom, plus modern science reminders that we never perceive all of reality anyway. So the question is not whether you filter. It’s what you want your filter to serve.
If you want the *how*, start with Chapter 6.
