Your Dominant Thoughts – How to Take Advantage of Them

October 31, 2011 By 3 Comments

By Gary Simpson

Not only do we become what we think about, we do what we think about. Whether your thoughts are positive or negative your mind will act on them. If we are directed by our dominating thoughts, why not implant our minds with things that will benefit us?
Learn how you can do this…

Self belief is a wonderful thing.

I know from my own life experiences that whenever I have been filled with dread or doubt I am unable to perform at a satisfactory level. Just the other day I was using a claw hammer and a lever to dismantle a packing crate. At the time I was making quite a noise hammering away when my wife came down to the workshop to see what I was doing.

Jokingly, I quipped: “I haven’t hit my fingers with the hammer yet!” Guess what I did within minutes of uttering those words? Yep. Bang. Yeeowch! Actually, I didn’t say that. It was something more colorful.

You see, in retrospect, what I did was plant the seed in my mind that I was going to hit my fingers with the hammer. My mind set about fulfilling the thought.

Making a Major Facelift to the Website

October 25, 2011 By 2 Comments

By Remez Sasson

For some time now, my wife has been suggesting that I make some minor changes to the website (not the blog). She suggested I change the colors, the gray and red, to other colors, and also change the header. At first, I refused, since, the website looks okay, but then I agreed to take one page, and do some experiments with it, to see what to change about it.

When I started, one thing led to another, and then I found myself redesigning the whole website, and planning of making a major facelift to it. I have made a major facelift to the website a few years ago, but since than the website has grown and the Internet changed, so it is now a good time to make this change, which, in my opinion, will take the website many steps further.

How To Become Assertive

October 15, 2011 By 2 Comments

By David Bonham-Carter

The way you act towards other people can be categorised into three types of behaviour: Passive, Aggressive and Assertive.

If you tend to act passively then you may be seeking to avoid conflict, often at the expense of your own needs.

If you tend to act aggressively, you may go to the other extreme and escalate conflict in an attempt (not always successful) to get your own needs met.

Most people would agree that usually it is best to avoid both these extremes if you can and to act assertively – to express your own needs and wants, not to hide them, but to do so in a way which is reasonable and which allows others the opportunity to communicate their wishes and feelings too.

If you are in a relationship with someone or in a work situation where you feel that your needs are not being met or that the other person is acting in a way which you don’t like, then it will usually be helpful to express your feelings and thoughts to them assertively rather than to conceal them passively or to express them too aggressively.

Too Much Empathy Does Not Help Anyone

October 5, 2011 By 4 Comments

By Remez Sasson

Look at the people around you, and you will discover that almost everyone seems to get emotionally involved, and go through the ups and downs of the people close to them. Sometimes, they also get emotionally involved with the problems of strangers too.

Look, for example, at how parents feel in relation to their children. They get anxious and stressed by whatever happens to them at school and with friends. Sometimes, this goes too far, making the parents nervous, restless and tense. This is an unhealthy situation, draining their strength and energy, and preventing them from having a sound sleep at night.

Is this necessary? You might say that you need to sympathize and empathize. Yes, you are right, but only up to a certain point.

A certain amount of empathy is okay, but when it becomes exaggerated it causes unnecessary emotional pain and suffering.

You need to realize that everyone has his or her own life, with its ups and downs, and things he or she has to deal with in order to grow and get stronger. You don’t need to solve everyone’s problem. What makes you think that you can do it better for them?

How to Visualize Mental ImagesBy Remez Sasson

If you visit this blog and the website regularly, you must have found that I have written more than a few articles about creative visualization.

What is creative visualization? It is a mental tool for making your dreams and desire come true, and has much to do with thinking, visualizing, the subconscious mind, and several mental laws, one of them being the law of attraction.

I am not going to go into the “how” and why” of this subject, since you can find more information on the blog and website. If you wish to learn how to use creative visualization for achieving your dreams and goals, as well as use it to improve your day-today life, I would recommend that you read my book Visualize and Achieve, where you will find useful and practical information on how to use skill for achieving dreams and goals.

In order to use this skill more effectively, you need to know how to visualize.

The more clearly you are able to visualize, the faster you will be able to get your goal achieved. It doesn’t mean you will not achieve success, if you are not able to visualize clearly your mental images, since there are other factors that play a role in creative visualization.
