Thoughts change as well as circumstances and perspectives. So keep an open mind while you’re assessing your options.
Sometimes it’s helpful to remain open minded even after decisions have been made. That’s why there’s a 14 day cooling off period after product purchases in the UK. People get more information or simply change their minds.
Do you do this often? You decide why someone did something. It could be your spouse, a political leader, your boss or your child, but you believe you know why they did something.
Your opinion, your guess, your assumption, is now fact, at least in your mind.
Just remember, this says more about you, than them. It tells us how you think and what is in the realm of what you might do.
Sometimes it is better if you don’t express your opinion of how you believe others think.
You need to repeat new ideas, thoughts and habits many times before they lock in.
Do the work. Do the reps.
Thousands of thoughts, lists of things to do, fun things you want to do, all occupy and tire out our mind and brain.
Take some time to do nothing.
Let your brain rest and relax.
Let your mind rest too.
You’ll be glad you did.
About 10pm, clear your mind, smile and drift off to sleep. So many benefits come from that.
Be brave and learn about yourself. What makes you tick and what do you avoid and why? If something impacts you, figure out why. Ask yourself questions. Push your own buttons. It’s not easy but you’ll be a better person for it.
Listen to new ideas. Reflect. Use that new info.
Let it rest. Good ideas will flow tomorrow. For now, let it be.
If you have to ask why, it’s already too late.
Do you charge straight in? Or do you reflect a little before, create a strategy and consider outcomes? Will you expect to win or just see how it goes?
Prepare your mind to win. Think like a winner. Believe like a champion. Expect the best result. Imagine all the events that need to happen for your ultimate success. Practice in your mind. Train your brain.
Smile. You’re prepared.
