A Simple Method For Achieving More
Past experiences mould the patterns inside our mind, our beliefs, habits and just how we behave. Changing these ideas and ways thinking can be quite hard. This is specially true when we try and don't succeed at things, we only tell ourselves we're not able to achieve this preventing trying.
Can You Break Free?
For instance, in India, whenever a baby elephant is raised, it can be attached to a compelling foundation which has a big solid chain during one of its hind legs to halt it breaking free. It will try more often than not to escape, and can not have the strength to accomplish this. As the elephant grows to some three-ton adult, the captives replace the chain that has a rope that your elephant could easily break. However the elephant will not likely try to escape from this rope and remain captive, because of its previous experiences of failing.
What Are Your Beliefs?
We should ask ourselves, what on earth is making us believe we simply cannot achieve things? What is blocking our positive thought patterns and turning them negative? We have to find out exactly what the past experience or experiences were, that are causing us to be feeling by doing this, cope with them and re-train our minds and thoughts being positive, to utilise again and achieve.
I Was Humiliated
An instance of mine, changing my attitude from negative to positive, was after considered one of my early presentations. My Manager humiliated me when in front of my peers by saying my presentation was 'rubbish'. I was devastated! I believed and convinced myself he was right. This belief lasted nearly a year and whenever I was motivated to present I declined, always getting an excuse ready. However deep down I knew I was an excellent presenter and made a decision to change, so I did. The outcome is, that I have since hosted many successful presentations and possess recently hosted a business event when in front of 400 people and received rave reviews.
Tell Yourself…
So if you agree positive, cope with your past demons and tell yourself you'll be able to achieve and change, you may and change for your better!
