One of the most powerful anchors is actually smell. A smell can instantly trigger a swell of feelings…..essentially just a state. You may not even remember exactly what the smell reminds you of but that smell just puts you in a certain mood or state and a flood of feelings overcome you in that moment while that scent is around.
Taste is also a very powerful anchor. Does the taste of ice cream or cookies and milk invoke a certain state in you? Comfort or maybe certainty? These are anchors and you aren’t born with them. They’re created when you’re in a powerful state experiencing intense feelings and that stimulus… the song or that scent or taste, whatever it might be… is consistently happening around you during that state.
That thing becomes an anchor that triggers the same state over and over again. How incredible would it be if you could anchor yourself to feel excitement about working out? Or anchor yourself to feel confidence when you make presentations? Or anchor yourself to feel driven or motivated when you sit at the computer to work on your business.
