Recommended book: The Bible
“If I do the hard thing, then all the other things feel a lot easier. So, whenever I'm going through a tough situation, all I have to do is go back to my memory bank and go, hey, you know what? You went through this, this, this, this, and this. Like if you’ve been through that, you can get through this. And it's worth it. It's really worth doing that because life does become easier. It’s not perfect, but it becomes easier when you’ve gone through the tough things and overcome them.”

From the world of statistics: All models are flawed, but some are useful.
We asked Google’s AI experiment Gemini to “break” the “3 Circles of Behavior Echo-System” behavior model.
The short story (no pun intended), is he/she/IT could not.
The best Gemini could offer: “What about people who aren’t aware of their unconscious stories/thinking?”
It’s a good question and a nice attempt. However, an unconscious story is still a story (represented within the model), and that is the point of the latest book, EVERYTHING is a F*cking STORY where the latest version of the model was revealed.
By the way, you are also invited to try to “break” the “3 Circles of Behavior Echo-System” behavior model.
If you think you can, please email or leave comments here.
*Note: Microsoft Co-Pilot and Gemini are up to speed. ChatGPT’s does not know the model exists. GPT’s latest update is from January 2022. 3 Circles of Behavior Echo-System was officially published in October of 2022.

“The Three Circles of Behavior Echo-System” / The Grunburg Behavior Model is a holistic, fluid, and dynamic behavior-change model. It’s the very first behavior-change model to demonstrate how our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and even our environment vibrate (echo and reverberate) to influence each other.
Hence, it’s an “Echo-System” not an eco-system. All prior behavior models represent human behavior in a linear-flow type diagram.
