Much of your life and its outcomes are based on what you choose to focus on in any given circumstance. Through my two decades of work with individuals, families, schools, and businesses I have come to learn is that many people are having a hard time focusing on the positives in themselves and their lives. By helping them to do this, we support….
I realize now after working in the field of education for so long that we are unintentionally focused on what is wrong with our children instead of what is right about them. Then those children grow up into us…not knowing what is right and wonderful about us and thus most of us live our lives not knowing what our purpose is or even how to access it as a possibility in our life.
It is hard to focus on the positive and what is possible when society has trained it out of us. This process is created to support the reconditioning of negative predispositions and beliefs to positive and definite possibilities.
The knowledge which exists today shows us that our molecules are emotive. They change on a cellular level depending on our environment. What has happened to most of us is that we have stayed in our Amygdala part of our brain which is fight or flight. We will get you out of fight or flight…. As well as giving you techniques for greater clarity through simple, easy to do anywhere, breath practices which provide your body with more oxygen, your mind with more clarity and the ability to activate what you know to be true.
It is essential to understand your emotional wellness and a tidbit of neuroscience, as well as how positive thoughts lead to positive emotions and actions. These coupled have a significant impact on your well-being and success, both with your personal and professional worlds. You remember Gandhi, One of his famous quotes holds accurate in what we know today of neuroscience,
Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny. ~ Gandhi – Indian political and spiritual leader
“Research has shown that positive emotions and interventions can bolster health, achievement, and resilience, and can buffer against depression and anxiety. And while considerable research in neuroscience has focused on disease, dysfunction, and the harmful effects of stress and trauma, very little is known about the neural mechanisms of human flourishing. Creating this network of positive neuroscience researchers will change that.” – Professor Martin E.P. Seligman
The key to do anything is doing it. Just like Nike says, “just do it.” Nike is right. This is the key to accomplishment and success in all areas of your life. The key to writing is to write, etc.… Many of us live our dreams in our minds and are isolated and alone wishing or hoping someone will find us. The key to this answer is… you must discover you. You must open up to your authentic self and activate your energy into the world in which you desire happiness, which to me means success.
Let’s begin.
This simple process will help you become more intentional with your thoughts by focusing on what is wonderful and right about you.
Whenever you find yourself, telling yourself what’s wrong with you, your job is to immediately state, “cancel, cancel.” Then replace your negative self-talk with positive thoughts and feelings about yourself and or the situation. And, if that doesn’t work, you immediately focus on gratitude. Janet Bray Attwood and Chris Attwood taught me to “focus on gratitude, focus on the people, places, and events you are grateful for.” This one act places your attention on the good thoughts and experiences in your life and immediately brings you positive feelings. It is these positive vibrations which you want to align with. Focus on what is right and wonderful about you. Place your attention on all the people, places, things and experiences you are grateful for in your life.
Make a list and Remember to INCLUDE YOURSELF
I am grateful for… ( how many can you come up with right now?)
