How To Understand Perception, Positivity And Belief To Succeed

One thing to consider about success is how our perception of reality completely changes our subjective experience of this - and therefore the outcome.

What do I mean by this? Simply that what you experience is actually less important for your state of
mind than what you believe.

For example then, if you were to come face to face with a lion in the woods, there would be a good chance that you'd see your heartrate jump up sharply, your breathing become faster and shallower and your blood start rushing to your muscles, your eyes and your brain. This is what we know as the 'fight or flight response'.
But what if you see the lion but don't believe in the lion? What if you think the lion is animatronic? Then none of those changes will occur and you'll remain entirely calm.

The thing to remember is that many of the things we encounter in our daily lives are just like those lions. When you encounter a challenge in the work place, a difficult friend or partner, or financial troubles... you can choose to see it as a lion, or you can choose to see it as no big deal.

This is where techniques like 'CBT' come in. These strategies allow us to actively change the way we think about challenges, about ourselves and about our situations - and thereby to achieve incredible things and even completely remove fear!

Finally though, what's also highly important is that we have positivity and belief in what we're doing. Positivity is one of the most powerful tools you have at your disposal and can help you to take chances, challenge the system and generally make waves.

If you are a pessimist with low self-esteem, is it like that you'll set up your own business? No. If you're someone who is afraid to take chances, then how likely is it that you'll end up quitting your job and going travelling? Not very!

Too many of us are simply beaten down by our circumstances and our upbringing and we believe that the best way to get by is to stay quiet and try not to rock the boat. The reality though is that you need to take chances and risks in order to truly live.

Would you rather fail at doing something amazing, or succeed at doing nothing at all? And in order to take that leap, we need to change our mindset.

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
