Great Thinking

Just can't get along with someone?

If we are having trouble getting along with someone or several people, it is definitely time to look at our self.  The experience we are having is our experience, our feelings, our thoughts.
We can't make other people act how we want them to, and if our contentment or goals are at the mercy of other people acting how we want them to, we stand to experience a vast variety of negative emotions, which, we can project or blame on the other party.  This is our mistake!

The answer is, take ownership and take responsibility or your own experience.

If our desired outcome is to interact in a positive way, to have healthy relationships at work or home, to get along with clients, customers, colleges, partners and people across the board, then this will be the experience we will have.  If we have a negative experience with someone, it is because we have scanned their information through our mental filters and had a certain emotional and physical experience with that.

Release the judgement and the expectations and replace it with genuinely trying to understand the other parties mind.  You don’t have to accept bad behaviour; you just alter your experience with it.  Adopt the habit of taking responsibility for how you feel.  If we are angry or holding negative judgement, understand we have control to release this... "let go".  Stretch yourself and grow your skills to a new level that supports letting go of negative judgement and taking more responsibility for genuinely desiring positive outcomes and interactions.

A great deal of our conflicts or mis communications are a result of us not taking more responsibility to effect a better outcome.  Though we feel justified relinquishing our responsibility and blaming someone or something else.

Ask yourself, what could I do or think in this moment that will be more likely deliver a more positive experience and outcome?

At the very least there is always something we can learn.

If you want to enjoy a happy life

Learn the ‘art of optimism’....

Look for the positive element in every situation.  It is actually like preventative medicine.  Granted there are times this practice is particularly challenging, yet it is totally possible, perfect practice makes perfect.  This is a practice and a discipline.   

It is very easy to find the fault in people, decisions, outcomes and experience.  It is a fine and very self gratifying practice to learn the art of optimism and defaulting your behaviour to search for what can be learned or what the positive of any situation is.  This actually has a physical or biological effect on your brain that then penetrates into your body.  It is just healthier for you.  Then by default it is healthier for those around you too.  I just had a brief chat with a neighbour who just returned from a 5 week holiday and I learned the 5 things about her trip that she didn’t like!  This is an obvious example, and if she had a default habit or behaviour of exercising the ‘art of optimism’ perhaps I would have heard about the 5 most unreal things about her holiday and perhaps she would have had a way better experience on that holiday?

The benefits you stand to gain are:

Increased:  intelligence, happy feelings and energy, positive interactions with others, expanded ideas and possibilities or creativity and overall increase in general y positive experiences as little as they may be.  Two little good experiences are better then one big bad one!  Especially if this is in your control to manufacture. 

Decreased:  negative experiences, stress or depression or bitterness or hopelessness, negative perceptions, negative thoughts about people or circumstances

If you are looking to see the optimistic aspects of any situation you are far more likely to find them.  If you have a default behaviour that gravitates toward seeing the negative in situations or people, you will most certainly find that negative.  Then you have a physical experience that is either positive for you or negative for you.  The more negative experience your body has emotionally and physically the worse it is for you.  The more positive emotional and physical experiences your body and mind has, the better it is for you and consequently those around you.

Optimism isn’t weak, it isn’t about not speaking up or just accepting things for the sake of keeping the peace.  It is the fine art of developing a healthier habit.  It is understanding what is your ego having too much of the say.  It is knowing how to hear what people are saying, so you need to stop the voices in your own head long enough to listen and hear and understand.  It is about truly desiring optimistic experiences and outcomes that are win/ win and not win/ lose. 

It is about understanding we don’t have control over much of life and we do have control over how we perceive it.

Look for the potential in people and situations.  Look for your own potential and most importantly, dig what you are about.  Dig who you are and what you stand for and what it is that you want to achieve in your life time.  What experiences would you like to have and what contribution to this planet would you like to make. 

When you help someone else what happens is, in ways you may not be conscious of, you actually help yourself.  When you forgive someone or something, you do more for yourself then meets the eye. 

The art of optimism is a genuine health elixir.

Are you liberated or limited by your ‘self identity’?

All that we are and, all that we have, physically and emotional, are a result of our self identity.

So what is your identity, in your thinking?

If you could actually stand in someone else's shoes,  to hear what they hear, see what they see, and feel what they feel, you would honestly wonder what planet they live on, and be totally blown away by how different their "reality" is from yours.  You'd also never, in a million years, be quick to judge again.

Your identity is what you believe about yourself, usually subconsciously, with unawareness.  Very often a good portion of how we identify with ourselves has been formed from when we were children and reinforced through our teenage years.  As adults we are basically limited or liberated by what we believe our identity to be.  What we believe our potential to be.  What we believe we are good enough for or worthy of.  There is a massive disparity from one person to the next with regard to their personal limits or liberations in line with our identities.

Becoming profoundly and deeply aware of how you identify yourself is extremely empowering.

It allows us the opportunity to re arrange our self identity to create freedom from the things that otherwise would limit us unnecessarily.

To get some indication of what your self identity is, observe your life. 

• ·         The people you have in your life. 
• ·         The material objects you surround yourself with. 
• ·         The food you eat.
• ·         The clothes you wear.
• ·         The language you use and things you take interest in.
• ·         The money you do or don’t have. 
• ·         Your health.
• ·         Your habits or addictions
• ·         Your goals and aspirations.
• 
  

As an exercise, imagine if you could pick and choose anything you wanted to have in your life with no limits, what would those things be?  Make a list.

When you have a list, compare it to what you do have in your life and notice where the differences are. 

Try to imagine what kind of identity you would need to have in order to manifest those things you imagined into your life.  Is that identity different to the one you currently associate yourself with?  You have the ability to choose.

Genuine success

Making your mark on the world is hard. If it were easy, everybody would do it .But it's not. It takes patience, it takes commitment, and it comes with plenty of failure along the way. The real test is not whether you avoid the failure, because you won't. It's whether you let it harden you or shame you into inaction, or whether you learn from it; whether you choose to persevere. BARACK OBAMA

I like the way that Alexander Ozar explains our life being a result of our mind....

Every desire or goal, no matter how big or small, positive or negative, begin with a decision and decisions are products of dynamic thought which arise from an activity of a static source -the mind.
How you think your way to your success depends on several factors which is summarized in two sentences:
1.recognize the fact that you have a right to your own desired success just as you are breathing as a living thing.
2.the willingness to remain always in an atmosphere of success.

You setup a chain of processes within you the moment you visualise consciously what you have the right to possess because the mind and the body coexist in harmony. You have a priceless gift in the power to model (makeup your mind) and remodel (change your mind) your world as you want. The power lies within the life and activity in you which is a part of One Super Life forever active, sensitive and conscious.
Come to think of statements like "you've a picture of what I'm thinking or perhaps where I'm mentally going". Your present situation is where you are mentally or in other words your state of mind. Your external world (happiness, health, wealth, lack, failure, fear, etc) is a manifestation of the world inside of you.
If you think and feel wealth, the mechanism in you will automatically create wealthy situations for you and if you think and feel failure you will definitely experience it.

The statement below is a form of prayer I created for my situation which i recite five hundred times daily and I tell you my life now is full of testimonies .
I strongly recommend you give it a try.

I am aware of the power, ability and will in me which I received at birth, in union with the Universal Mind and Power, to control and direct my mind to achieve my desired goals.

The very act of committing your goals to paper programs them into your subconscious.

 

Principle 1. Get in touch with what really turns you on

Finding the “right” focus and the right areas in life that you are excited to dedicate your time and energy and life to, will motivate and inspire you toward the fulfilment of your full potential. The “right” goals for you will liberate your imagination and energy, and give you the drive to overcome the obstacles and difficulties that you will experience on the path to your goal. Only big the “right” goals can keep you excited and working enthusiastically every day toward their accomplishment.

Principle 2. Write your goals in the present tense
Your goals must be in writing, in the present tense, as though they already exist. This can be tricky.  Imagine who you are and how you feel once you achieve your goals.  This is how you can write them in the present tense.  Your subconscious only accepts commands that are worded in the present tense, such as, “I weigh 150 pounds,” or “I earn $100,000 per year,” or “I live in a beautiful 3,500-square-foot, custom-designed home.”

 

Rewrite your goals daily.

Affirm your goals regularly.

Principle 3. Keep your goals in line with your vision.
Your goals must be in balance and cover the three most important areas of your life.

They must be aligned with how your vision your life to ultimately be.

Principle 4. Know your major definite purpose and your life’s vision.
You must decide what your “major definite purpose” is. What are you and your life about. This is the one goal in your life that is more important than any other. This is the one goal that, if accomplished, will allow you to attain more of your other goals.  Align your goals with this and the vision for how you want your life to be ultimately. 

 

Principle 5.  Stay present. 

Goals and visions while future focused are not meant to detract from your sense of being in the moment and living that moment fully rather then missing out on the present because you are so focused in the future or somewhere else.
