Fears and how to deal with them?

Greatest Discovery“You become what you think about most of

the time” Earl Nightingale

Consc. Vs Unconsc. MindConscious mind, which decided whether to accept or decline the incoming information

Subconscious mind, which takes the accepted information as undisputable truth and creates thoughts/emotions/behavior/observations in a matter consistent with this belief

Consc. Vs Unconsc. Mind (2)Again, You become what you think about most of

the time What thoughts are you accepting by your

conscious mind?The Law of Cause and effect vs. The law of

accident. Your thoughts are causes and events are the effects

What are your dominant thoughts?It’s hard to tell because they are mostly run on

autopilot.Exercise 1. How to notice them?

Exercise 1When you complain (for now you are encouraged to

do it), what meaning do you attribute to the events? How do you explain them? THESE are your automatic thoughts, or some other authors call, negative beliefs, or counter-intentions

Example: conscious thought – I want to be rich, unconscious – money is the root of all evil, rich people are greedy, money corrupts; These almost unnoticeable ideas will prevent you from

being rich, not the reality or the surrounding circumstances. Otherwise, how would people become self-made billionaires?

Question these beliefs!

ResponsibilityCan you make someone do push-ups for you?100% responsibility for your success, for

your current situation. Next time something irritating happens, ask

yourself, what did I do/say/not say/not do to create that? How did I make this person act this way?

what am I going to do differently next time so that to get the results that I want?

Why?The more responsibility you accept, the more

control you feel over your life, and consequently the more positive emotions you experience.

Life is about having the maximum positive emotions in the shortest period of time.

Responsibility

How?

Responsibility First, let’s understand where do negative emotions come

from. Negative emotions are the biggest obstacles towards achievement. But the good news are that all of them contain one element, which, when stopped, dissolves the negative emotions. It is BLAME!

The law of replacement: You can hold only one thought at a time.

Replace any blame or negative emotion by repeating: “I am responsible!”, even though it might be hard in the beginning.

You cannot accept responsibility and be angry at the same timeTry it!

Another Method2nd method, applicable when you are blaming and

resenting and deeply believe that you are entitled to this emotions, write Joe Vitale: “Thank You” letter

It is always easier to forgive someone you are thankful to, even for ridiculous reason.

You must forgive, because this is a hallmark of the mental health. However, it does not mean you have to like them or to engage with these people. You must do it for yourself, otherwise you will be riding a car on the emergency breaks, you will move but with exhausting process. You CAN let it go.

Three groups of people you must forgive:Your parents, everybody else, yourself.

ForgivingRemember!You always act to the best of the knowledge

available to you, and you and any other person acts what he/she thinks is right, or rationalized to some degree. Nobody does something they think is wrong. We always act to the best of our knowledge at THAT time. Try to understand it. And forgive and move forward.

If you cannot do with the blame for yourself – same thing: write a “Thank you” or “I am sorry letter” to yourself.

Goals – moving without them

Goals – moving with them

Goal SettingSuccessful people think about their goals all

the timeBasic ruler – the simpler they sound to you,

the better3Ps:

PresentPersonalPositive

PresentEvery morning and evening, for 1 week write

down your goals in any sphere. They should be in the present tense: unconscious mind only understands the commands in the “now”;

e.g. Not “i will work for...”, I “work for...”OR choices method: “I choose to work for...”

it will be more acceptable

Personalpersonal – it always has to begin with “I”

I get promoted… And NOT “My boss promotes me”

Positivewithout the word “not”, “un-”: our mind

cannot concentrate on the absence of something

e.g. NOT “i will lose 5 kilos”, but “I weigh...”

Last thing about the goalsHow to find out what do you want? Take a look at what you are complaining

about, or what you don’t want to happen and construct an opposite intention.

Repeat each of these 10 goals 5 times after you write it, and notice what it feels like to achieve them.
