goals in harmony with your life you need to
align: your mindset, your emotions and your
actions. In other words, you have to mentally
believe that you can reach your goal, you have
to feel that you really want it and you have to
start working for it. Regularly we want a lot
of things, and we have lots of wishes but we
don’t do much to reach them, the fact of not
doing much action to reach what you want
implies your mindset is not truly positive and
your emotions as well have their doubts, so all
the alignment is upside down once and again.
All the famous people who are making a lot of
money started doing something they liked a
lot and were not that well paid in the outset of
their careers, think of sports players, artists,
actors, singers and so on, but their alignment
was so solid that they succeeded doing what
they enjoyed the most.
Out of the three parts for alignment, the
“mindset” deserves a little more attention.
According to research made by Dr Alison
Legerwood at New York University, our
minds get stuck in the negative, in the bad
memories. Several experiments carried out
for this research show that when you describe
something, let’s set a medical surgery
operation as with 70% success rate obviously
people like it and when you describe the
same with 30% success rate people obviously
don’t like it. Up to here normal. Then, the
same people who were given the 70% rate
are told now this surgery has 30% success
rate and they don’t like anymore. But unlike
the previous, when the people who had been
given 30% rate of success are told that now the
same operation will have 70% success rate,
they still don’t like it, they don’t change their
minds. Doctor Ledgerwood says our mind may
be built to search for the bad and
hold it
, we l
iterally have to work harder to shift from bad
to good than the contrary.
At this point, the question is about how to find
the good memories, thoughts and contents
of our every day life to helps us switch our
mindset into positive.
The advice here is to stop complaining and
thank for everything you have, health,
friends or family, remember that when we
were children we were told to say thank you
for everything; honestly compliment others
when they deserve it, your generosity will
make you bothhappy; andworkhard to retrain
your brain and mindsets into the positive. It
is a habit. According to Dr Ledgerwood people
who do it live longer, healthier and of course
happier.
