Makes Sense - with Dr. JC Doornick - The perception trap: how childhood rewires your reality - E-176

Episode Date: June 5, 2026

Here's a fact that should disturb you: scientists estimate your brain processes 11 million bits of information every single second — but you're only consciously aware of about 50. So the question isn't what you see. The question is: who chose what you don't see? Today on Makes Sense with Dr. JC, we're going into the natural selection of perception — why the reality you're living in may not actually be yours, and exactly what it takes to rewire your brain and take it back.   Follow Dr. JC Doornick and the Makes Sense Academy:► Makes Sense Substack - https://drjcdoornick.substack.com ► Instagram: / drjcdoornick ► Substack: / drjcdoornick ►Facebook:  / makessensepodcast ►YouTube:  / drjcdoornick     MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast.

Have you noticed that the world that we live in has been doing most of the thinking for you? That your beliefs, perceptions, reactions, fears, and doubts have been shaped by unsolicited outside noise? How easy it's been for you to slip into that default sleep walking mode and label it as life and reality. Yeah, that ends here. Welcome to the Make Sense with Dr. J.C. podcast. This is your opportunity to start thinking for yourself, reclaim control, and step up. back into that role as the shock caller and dominant force of your own reality. It's when you change the way that you look at things, that the things that you look at begin to change. So let's wake up,

let's rise up, and let's make sense of why and how shift happens. Great morning humans, great morning world. I wear this hat that says, hmm, which stands for haven't made up my mind. I very often get a lot of criticism. Last night, I was looking at one of my YouTube videos. You can find our YouTube channel at Dr. J.C. Dornick. And I don't know, there was this one video that kind of went viral that I did, and I get a lot of comments. And this one guy said, this guy is a BS artist,

because what he's saying is not true. And it's interesting, because whenever you get some sort of unsolicited criticism, you have an opportunity to, first of all, care about it or not, and respond versus react. So what I said is I said, because he might be right. You know what I mean? Isn't that funny? Whenever we have the opportunity to interface with somebody that is like adverse or coming

at us, our knee-jerk reflex is to always say, that's not true and justify our position and try to be right. I love to entertain uncertainty, even about the things that I'm certain about. So I said to him, I said, hey, thank you so much for catching that, that I'm full of shit. I'm definitely going to have a look into that because there's a good chance you might be right. Right. I mean, if somebody says you're full of shit, your knee-jerk reflexes, no, I'm not. I am not full of shit, but maybe you are.

Maybe I am. I love to revel in uncertainty. So I call this one the natural selection of perception. Great morning humans, great morning world. My name's Dr. J.C. Dornick, otherwise known as the dragon. Some people don't even know my real name. They just called me the dragon. And I want to welcome you to the Make Sense with Dr. J.C. podcast,

which some consider the ultimate self-awareness podcast. I want to also welcome you to the uprising of the sleepwalking masses. I think a lot of people are sleepwalking through life. I sure have spent most of my time sleepwalking. A lot of people are waking up right now and arming themselves with the simple power of awareness. Just becoming more aware. If you want a game-changing power move today, just simply allow yourself, permit yourself to become more aware.

Here's a fact that might disturb you. It will only disturb you because it's different than something that you might be entrenched and locked into, have a firm grasp on knowing. I think anytime we know something and we have certainty behind something and somebody provides an alternative perspective at it, it could be disturbing at first. But in this environment, we're going to entertain the alternative. scientists, and I'm always fascinated with scientists because they don't need to know, they just point things out that they put a lot of time and effort. But scientists estimate that your brain processes

approximately 11 million bits of information every single second. 11 million bits of information every single second. But simultaneously, you're only consciously aware of about 50 of the 11 million bits. So the question today isn't necessarily what we see. We've always been taught what you see is what you get. Seeing is believing. It's not so much what we see. The question I'm entertaining today is, who chose what we don't see? Sure, I see.

I see you. I'm interfacing with you right now. But the question is, did I select the other 11 million bits that I won't see? Or have I been trained and programmed and conditioned and positioned and persuasive? to see what I see. That's what we're going to play with today. We're going to basically look into something in the realm of the natural selection of perception. Think about what that means right now. The natural process of selection of our perception and why the reality that we're living in may not actually be ours. And we're going to look at exactly what it takes should you make a decision that you want to change

the way you look at things so that the things that you look at change, one of the tenets of our ecosystem. And we're going to look at exactly what it takes to rewire your brain and take back control. So when we say reclaim control is the dominant force and shock hauler of your days, that's what we're talking about. And what's interesting about that is it's not in any way, shape, or form saying that anybody else can determine what that is. We're going to look at that today. At the end of the day, whether you're looking at things the right or wrong way, you determine it. So that's an interesting place to be, is to recognize that you control that. But we're going to look at the idea that there's some extraneous factors that have been with us

our whole life that put us in this position today where a lot of what we see and we perceive, therefore how we respond and react is not necessarily the way we do it. Somebody else has helped us there. So we're going to look at the gap between perception and reality. We're going to entertain that there even is a gap between what we see and what is. And we're going to find out who's actually doing the selecting. I love that idea of looking at natural selection and determining that, hey, this is just natural. I'm just naturally seeing this. But what is natural selection and who's in control of it? So what is natural selection of perception? So think about this. Your brain is sitting in a dark, silent vault, your skull. If you think about the brain as like a separate entity, your brain never

sees the light. It never hears a sound. And it relies entirely. on electrical signals. That's the way the brain works. So just think for a second about your brain. I have a heart for your brain. Be empathetic to your brain right now and recognize that it's sitting without all of your five senses, your brain is kind of like in the dark. And all it does is relies primarily on electrical signals. So think about where those electrical signals come from. Those signals are a filtered fraction of the 11 million bits of data hitting you. So what that means is this 11 million bits of data that's coming in every second. I mean, you think chat GPT is cool?

Well, look at H.I, human intelligence. I'm telling you that we are capable of processing 11 million bits of information every second, but we're only consciously connecting with 50 of them. All of those signals are just a filtered fraction of the 11 million bits of data that are hitting you at any moment. This is kind of like neuroplasticity for beginners. Your brain doesn't render reality. Now, that's a big statement. And once again, if somebody says you're full of shit, I might be.

You know, I'm just going on the research and the data, the most current research and data. Our brain doesn't actually render reality. What it renders is a selected version of it based on what it thinks that it needs to survive. So if you look up natural selection in general, it kind of talks about only the strong survive. So I don't think we spend enough time thinking about that. The idea that what we're really trying to do is survive because of this overall arching thing called natural selection. But in natural selection and in this attempt and desire and need to survive, our brain is

therefore selecting. So that's what natural selection means of perception. This is where childhood conditioning and mind patterns and things like that come into play. So your selection process, your natural selection process of that brain that's in the dark, in the skull, and what that means is the way that you see your partner, your bank account, your bills, your potential is functioning from an operating system that's been programmed by outside forces. This is an important distinction to make that our brain is like a computer and it's been programmed. If you really, really look back, we think that we're programming it, and we are in the sense

of what we consume on a regular basis, ends up being what we assume. So there's a little bit of the control. If you want to take back control of what it is that your brain is perceiving, you do have a lot of say, and that is what you consume today, not just food and not just water, but social media and the people you hang out with and things like that. So it controls the way that you see your partner, your bank account, your bills, your potential, and it's functioning from an operating system that's been programmed from outside forces. So I call those outside forces since we were born. I call them our MFTPSE. And that stands for our mother, our father, our teacher, our preacher. Now that's like the formative years. And we spent a lot of time taking in information from other people, especially when we're young, not disputing it, just

absorbing it. So our brain's been programmed in that nature. And hopefully those people did a good job. But beyond that, the MFTPSE is the mother, father, teacher, preacher, and then we also have society and evolution. So what that means is society is the people that we hang out with. We've chosen that. You know, we've been persuaded, but we've chosen that. And then we have the paying forward of evolution. In the grand scheme of natural selection, we're talking about the natural selection of

perception, but in the grand scheme of natural selection and this idea that we're trying to survive, we've been taught the right way to do that. So they told you what to ignore in order to stay safe. So remember what we said before. Not necessarily interested in what it is that we're choosing to see, but what forces or who is deciding what we shouldn't see. So the idea of turning a blind eye and cognitive bias, because we only have limited capabilities.

If you look up the science of how we actually generate perception, it's very limited. We typically see splices of things, and then we take our programmed and conditioned nature to make up the rest. But who's in control of blocking out all of the other stuff? And you wouldn't even know what you're blocking out because it's on autopilot. It's just blocking out. And it feels natural. So your mother, father, teacher, preacher, society evolution has told you and continue to tell you with our consumption what to ignore in order to stay safe. So these things were installed by them, and they were installed in the sense of subconscious beliefs

and psychology that really dictates our every move. Think about what that means. So we have these subconscious beliefs in psychology that we can't really like go inside and locate. You might interpret them as your core beliefs and the things that matter most. But what we're entertaining is, is where did you get those? Did you come up with those? I hope you did, but for the most part, we haven't. They installed the subconscious beliefs in psychology that dictate your every move. You aren't seeing what's actually there. And how can I prove? Because I'm just like you. I can't prove to you what we're not seeing. But if you look at the science, we're not seeing what's actually there. We're seeing what we've been trained to see. Now we know what the problem is.

Okay. And I say problem. Maybe I should replace that and say we know what the challenge is. Here's where it's going to get personal. Now, we talked about the fact that you get to decide what you see, and you also get to decide how close it is to what is. What you see is what you get true, but you're the one that decides the truth behind it. So we're going to look at that as the challenge, and that's the personal aspect of the challenge. So we're going to talk about the reflexive mind, and that is why you react before you think. We've got to look at the science behind the way the brain works.

So it's kind of like a paradox. If we trust our perception as that of being natural, this is me. You know, and we identify it. We never stop to ask, well, who programmed the filter? Think about that. If I determine that what I'm perceiving is just natural, it's me and it is, and it is what it is, I don't stop typically there and say, well, where did I get that information? Because it feels natural.

So when you get triggered, for instance, or have like a breakdown, I don't know about you, but I've had a couple of those. and I'm sure I'll have some today. Your conditioned reflexive mind takes over. Now, you don't know that it took over because it feels natural. That's the thing about reflexes is they feel natural. We don't have to think about them. This is why human beings have the ability to sleepwalk. We can actually wake up in the middle of the night, go make a sandwich, have a drink, maybe do some silly things and go to bed without even being there. So that's going on. A good 90, 95 percent of most everything that's going on is happening without our say. Feels natural. You don't choose to feel like a failure or feel anxious.

I don't think anybody wakes up and says, I'm going to choose to have self-doubt, feel like a failure, and be anxious today. It's a pre-programmed response to your ingrained beliefs. So this is why a mindset shift, this idea of changing the way that we look at things so that the things that we look at can change, it requires a mindset shift. And this is why a mindset shift feels. so hard, so difficult. It's because we're fighting against a selection process that happens before we're even aware of it. Now, this is the tricky part about the way the brain works. And by the way, if you're happy with your selection process right now, you can just enjoy knowing about this and just say, I'm good with it. Because at the end of the day, you'll see that there's never going to be

a time where we can actually say that what we see is what is. If you look at the science of it. So if you're happy with your selection process and your outcome, you go with your bad self. That's awesome. I'm happy with mine right now, but I'm always curious to know if I could be happier. So this is why mindset shifts feel so hard. You're fighting against a selection process that happens before you're even aware of it. If you want to know how to change your mindset, you have to first understand that you aren't fighting reality. You're fighting that 50-bit rendering of what was designed to keep you small and safe. Now, I think that might be the biggest takeaway today is to just consider that 50-bit rendering, that small sample of the macro of 11 million

bits. Now, there's no way that we can entertain 11 million bits, but they're entertainable. So all we're doing right now is we're just stepping out of what we claim we know and say, who or what is determining what I should not know. I find that people struggle with things like dreaming big or people struggle with looking at things outside. I mean, we know that growth takes place outside the comfort zone. Growth takes place outside the comfort known. That's what we struggle with, is obtaining or entertaining an alternative perspective to things, especially within the realm of things that we feel we're certain of. And we know where we get certainty from. And that's a conditioning. I mean, how do I know? Because you can have two people that are certain of

different things that are in opposition. So here's the good news. If we can acknowledge that the operating system was programmed, that's the first step. Or even that it was potentially programmed, that means that it's programmable. Sit with that for a second. If we can acknowledge that our operating system was programmed or was potentially programmed, what it means, and this is a big step, is that our operating system is programmable. And you know what that means?

It means that it's also reprogrammable. That's the good news. The operating system can be upgraded. It can be updated and upgraded. We all understand that concept of updating and upgrading when it comes to like technology and software. We struggle with it when it comes to ourselves, don't we? So here's the tool.

For all of you that have read my book and you understand what the interface response system is, I teach this IRS, this interface response system framework, and that's the tool. So the reason why I teach that is it's a four-step tool, and I'm going to go over it right now, that helps you execute on this idea or even giving you a chance to change the way you look at things. Why would you even want to do that? Why would you decide to entertain an alternative way of looking at things? Well, once again, it would be a potential dissatisfaction of the way that things are unfolding, or it could even be a curiosity, this is where I sit, an open curiosity, that is asking, well, what else is there? What else might be true? If you're kind of open and curious like that,

what more is there to see? And you're kind of on a journey where you're allowing yourself to do things like breathwork and meditation or maybe even working with plant medicine or, God, my wife is using this new app called Illuminate. I think it's called, you know, she's meditating with all these flashing lights and everything like that. So if you're kind of on that journey and you're seeking right now, The interface response system is a wonderful and simple tool that just simply permits and allows you to look at things from alternative perspectives, which by the way is where, in my opinion, growth is. If as soon as you claim that you know something with certainty, think about what that means. It might be a good feeling like, aha, I know.

But at that moment, you've just shut yourself out to what else. This is why I wear this hat that says I haven't made up my mind up about anything. That's why I always allow myself to revel in uncertainty because I want to grow. I want to, with my limited time here, I want to know what else. I've just grown into this person, and I know a lot of people in our make sense ecosystem, allow themselves to not be certain about everything. That's an interesting observation about the world that we live in is how it demands rapid response and certainty.

If you're uncertain, you know, there's this fear of being left behind. I'm uncertain of everything that I've just said to you. And it feels good. And it feels good. So here's the IRS framework. And what it's used for is to rewire your brain. And in order to do that, we need a repeatable system. If you're interested in rewiring your brain so that you can start looking at things differently,

maybe you have an optimistic viewpoint or maybe you're struggling. You know, I'm a health transformation coach. I work with a lot of people with their eating habits and weight loss and metabolic health and all that stuff. Who knows what it is. You might have concepts about money. So if you're interested in rewiring your brain into a version of yourself that doesn't have those problems, you need a repeatable system because it doesn't happen overnight.

We have to do this with practice and consistency. So that's the IRS framework. And there's four steps. And if you've read the book, and we offer a free mastermind every month, join us for that where we do the work. But the four steps are perceive, pause, process, and proceed. So let's walk through this live in the light of this discussion. So imagine you just got a bill. Did anybody have a pile of bills on their table, on their desk?

But imagine you just got a bill and your perception and your reaction is, is I can't pay that bill. I don't have enough money for that bill. So let's go through the four steps. In Perceive, which is just really arming yourself with awareness, we notice the physical hit. A lot of people are into somatic work. Like if I have this icky feeling that I've got a bill and I can't pay it, the first thing I'll do is I'll take note of the physical hit of it. You know, the gut punch. And that's the reflex.

So I look at it and I say, ah, there's the reflex. How I feel my breath. Maybe I'm sweaty. Maybe I'm a little bit disoriented. Maybe I got that gut punch. That's the reflex. Aha, I see it. Consider the possibility that your reaction, this is what we do in percent.

we entertain the possibility that our reaction might be due to how our brain is perceiving it. That's a power move. It's to just entertain that the way that you're perceiving something and hence the feeling might just be part of what we're discussing here, this natural selection of perception, the way that your brain at this time is perceiving it. Now, if you do it that way, what it does is it says maybe I'm wrong. And maybe this idea of the faulty nature of how we perceive things sometimes would validate step two, which is to pause, to pause with curiosity.

And that's by saying, hmm. So step two now validated by you just awakening to, hey, maybe this is just the way that my brain processes things and my mother, father, teacher, preacher, and all that stuff. So when we pause, it's really like a 90-second revolution when you pause. I don't think that you have to wait 90 seconds, but when you're practicing, I think 90 seconds is a good space, because you might still be attached to your old ways. So I call it a 90-second revolution. What you do when you pause, and you pause by just saying, hmm, right? You're just pausing and you're putting yourself in a curious place. What you're doing is you permit yourself to separate from the stimulus, whatever it is, the bill, right, in this case,

and separate yourself from that and your reaction. And the ill-fills. feelings. So they're there. They don't go away, but we're just stepping away. We're saying, okay, stimulus, Bill, and my reactions, you guys just chill out for a second. I'm going to go over here. We're not giving up on them. We're not in denial. We're just saying, I'm going to look at it from an alternative perspective. So I'm just pausing them right there. We step away from both by simply saying, and the reason why I chose, and you know it stands for haven't made up my mind, is it's just a practice of saying, I don't know yet. Let me think about it. Now, it's tough when somebody says something to you. They want an immediate response. They want your reaction. They want your certainty. They want

something. So if you say, hmm, you'll notice that their nervous system gets a little discombobulated because people don't want you to take time to think, but you're allowed to. You're allowed to. So step away from both by just saying, hmm. And what that does is it prompts the curious disputation of what's happening. If you don't know how to say, hmm, and pause, which is validated by the awakening, we don't even have a chance to get a look at what's actually happening. We've just handed the keys over to this natural selection of perception that we think. We're saying, you always know what to do. Do I always know what to do? That version of me? No, not at all. And by the way, this is not seeking perfection. What this is is just seeking maybe some better

results. Maybe moving from a reflexive reaction to a thoughtful response of some sort. So then we move to step three, my favorite step, which can only be achieved by pausing and stepping into this other place. We're going to process. So from that open and curious space, we get to ask questions like this. Whose eyes am I looking through? Whose eyes am I looking through? And who's had a say in these eyes? Now, for those of you that know, I wear glasses without lenses. That's why. Now, it's kind of like a silly little thing. And it actually works out really well when you're doing lives because there's no glare. But the main reason I don't wear lenses is it's kind of like my statement that I refuse to look at things through other lenses other than the ones that I choose. So I don't need lenses anymore that have

been manufactured by others if you catch my drift. So from that open and curious space, we ask whose eyes am I looking through at this time? Is this my true nature or is this my condition nature that's just showing up as my natural selection process? Is this my true nature or is this my conditioning? And what we do is we look for the bits of info that our filter tried to hide. So we have a filter. We talked about 11 million bits and we only process 50. So what that means is we have some sort of a filtration system that's blocking everything out and only letting 50 bits of information. And it's happening every second. God, it's happening now, now, now, now, now.

So we look for the bits of info that our filter has tried to hide. Only from that space can we see other things. The opportunities, maybe, the resources, the shift. Remember, in order to shift, we have to first catch ourselves in a drift. In our book, we call that drifting and shifting. Shifting is easy once you've identified that you've drifted. A lot of times we get in the water and we don't know that we're drifting, you know, like in a riptide of some sort until we look up the beach and we see our towel and our clothes

way up the beach. So that's the way life is. So you look for the bits of info that we've tried to hide, the opportunity, the resources, the shift. And you ask your sorting filter questions. So in the book, in the interface response system, and if you get the book, there's a QR code and there's an actual exercise for this. It helps you build your own customized sorting filter.

So now you're going to say, I'm not going to use the filter that's been given to me. I'm going to build my own sorting filter. And the sorting filter just is a simple system of asking questions. So you're going to ask your own personalized sorting filter questions. Like, what else might be true? If you can ask yourself what else might be true and entertain it, sometimes we'll default and say nothing else is true but this,

because I know, God, there's a lot of things that might be true other than what we know. So you ask your filtering questions like what else might be true? And then is this truly a problem? And with regards to the bill that we said we couldn't pay, what happened the last time that I had a bill that I thought I couldn't pay? And sometimes outside forces, outside other people have to say, we always get through this. This too shall pass. Like the clouds in the sky, this bill too will pass on by. Only can do that stuff if you step into that state of control where you're allowed to dispute and entertain things. And from there, we can move to the fourth phase, which is really simple.

This is how we move from reaction to response. It's called proceed. You act and respond now from a place of awareness, not instinct. Now, do we need instinct in our decision making? Of course. If a car's coming at you, if somebody throws a rock at your head, you need instinct. Right. So there is value to that.

But when somebody calls you a name and you let your instinct take charge there, or if you have some downtime and you let your instinct decide to go and watch the news or something like that, these bad habits and things like that, the 90-second pause repeated consistently, literally over time, literally rewires the neural pathways in our brain. So that's that neuroplasticity. If you want to build a habit like drinking water, I have a habit. habit where I drink a lot of water every day. If you want to build a habit, you have to do it with repetition. And they say it's about 66 to 90 days of repetition, and all of a sudden you'll stop

knowing you're doing it. The same thing happens with the interface response system. So this 90-second pause, if you can build the habit of pausing, catching that response and pausing, and you do it repeatedly and consistently, you can literally consciously rewire the neural pathways of your brain. And it moves from persuaded nature to an original nature. You come back home to yourself. So this is the core of what's called our mindset environment design. What we're doing is we're acknowledging the underlying beliefs, becoming aware. That's step one of the interface response system. We're acknowledging the underlying beliefs, attitudes, and mental frameworks that guide us in how we approach problems, make decisions and interact with people and spaces. So this is part of the programming. This design functions

like a program that shapes how you perceive challenges, respond to feedback, and adapt to changing contexts. So what the interface response system aptly initialed the IRS, I always wanted to have a version of the IRS that I actually enjoyed. What the interface response system does is simply allow us to do some quality control and dispute things by saying, hmm, why wouldn't we just say, hmm, we've got new shirts that we're making up and they're really cool and they say, just say, hmm, remember the campaign just say no? We say, hmm, why not? If you struggle with that about disputing things, it makes sense. You know, we're locked into the neural pathways that are saying you need to know. A lot of our training and our persuasion has taught us that we

need to know things. And if we don't, it's a sign of weakness. And I get that. There's a lot of history and evolution behind that. But what we're saying is, is why not make it okay to just go, hmm, interesting. I hear it. I'm going to go step over here and actually reclaim control, because I understand that I have this conditioned nervous system that I didn't necessarily fully program. And I'm just going to ask myself what I think about it. Does it matter? What else might be true. Does this have anything to do with me? Is this in my control or not? And that's how somebody comes into your space and unsolicitedly attacks you. You can come to terms with the fact that this might not have anything to do with you. This might be all about them and what's going on in their life.

So let's check the facts. That's what we're going to do. Today's conversation is about reclaiming your true nature, not your natural nature, because natural is part of the reflexive component feels natural because it's just happening. We're looking at claiming control once again of our true nature. So what does life look like after the filter? And I'm talking about our filter. It's not just about thinking positive. It's about changing our environmental design and thinking like who again, like you again. Make sense? So that is my natural selection of perception. That's it for today.

And remember, learning without action is just another form of distraction. If something hit home and you learn something today, give it away. That's the only way it's going to stay. See you next time.
