it ' s time to take your mind to
Responding means you take a short moment to selfregulate and choose your response . Responding takes into consideration the desired outcome of the interaction , meaning you think before you speak or act . Responding engages the brain before the body .
Viktor E . Frankl said it beautifully with this quote : “ Between stimulus and response , there is a space . In that space is our power to choose our response . In our response lies our growth and our freedom .”
Once we are aware of this , how can we change and improve how we react ? How can we harness the mind and begin to control our own behavior and emotional responses ?
• We create New Programming . We go to work !
• You can interact with your thoughts and change them in real time . This concept is something that anyone can master and use effectively in their personal life , relationships , friendships , and career . It will improve how you interact with others and how you deliver your best self .
Here are 6 tips to help you take active control over your mind :
1 . SHIFT YOUR MIND-SET .
Adopt empowering beliefs and change your self-talk . Stop talking down to yourself ! Beliefs are what define us and keep us locked into negative thought patterns . Your mind will always believe exactly what you tell it . If you master what you believe , you can master how you deliver your presence to the world around you . Daily meditation , affirmations , journaling , and scripting can all be very effective practices for this .
2 . EMBRACE UNCERTAINTY , TRUST THE WAIT , AND ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF BECOMING .
We ’ re not in control of life in general , but we can control our actions and responses . This knowledge that you can control yourself , even if you can ’ t control life , is the power to shape your existence and reprogram your mind . This practice can evolve into a daily comfort . Even though your day will be full of the unpredictable , you are in control of yourself , and that is a great feeling !
3 . FOCUS ON GRATITUDE AND ABUNDANCE .
Stop focusing on the negative or the “ lack " and shine a light on the positive and the “ plentiful .” Rewire your brain to notice more of what you have and less of what you don ’ t have . You will be amazed at the creative ways your brain will start to do this on its own . A well-trained mind will start to remind you that you already have it all !
4 . CONTROL YOUR MENTAL DIET .
You must eliminate negative influences in your environment . Your subconscious mind will continually absorb information from your environment . This includes music , people , toxic news , social media , and any outside source . When you choose to surround yourself with positive things , it empowers you . Your mind will grow stronger as you feed it positive and energizing content and will even start to reject old , negative influences .
5 . VISUALIZE THE BEST- CASE SCENARIO IN EVERYTHING !
Your words are the most powerful force available to you . Tell yourself that this day will be amazing , this is the best job ever , or the best day ever ! After all , it literally is whatever you say it is ! Even when something doesn ’ t go the way you want , you have the power to flip it in an instant . Turn any negative circumstance or thought pattern into the best-case scenario and watch how well it works !
6 . USE BIO-HACKING TO ALTER YOUR BRAIN WAVES .
Bio-hacking is the use of frequencies , light therapies , intermittent fasting , and supplements to help tap into your brain waves . Your brain responds differently to various types of light , energy supplements , red light therapy , and music with specific beats and frequencies that induce certain states of mind . These methods increase the receptors in your brain for maximum input . The best time to reprogram your subconscious mind with positive affirmations , sounds , and vibrations is when your brain is in Theta waves of 4.0Hz – 7.5Hz , which are present during meditation and light sleep — the state between wakefulness and sleep .
Like any muscle you train at the gym on a regular basis , the more you train your mind , the healthier it will become . Training your mind is a marathon , not sprint , and changes won ’ t happen overnight . The more time , effort , and work you put in , the faster you will see results . You ’ ll start to notice changes in how you think , what you believe , how you respond , and how you feel . Before you realize it , you ’ ll be reacting from a whole new level of conscious and subconscious awareness .
