PERSONAL POWER UNLIMITED
Consider the value of words. Words paint
pictures. Words create history
and refine culture. Words can uplift or teardown. Words can
strengthen
self-esteem or weaken the most secure individual. One word
of kindness
can make all the difference to a person depressed or lonely.
Start the year with an experiment.
Try to use words that make people
feel good about themselves. Begin with words that when spoken outloud
create warmth and positive regard for your listner. You'll notice the effect
immediately.
It will make a difference in your life and in the life of others.
This is a wonderfully magic
tool. In increasing the self-esteem of
others, you just naturally feel better about yourself. This positive attitude
expands your sense of self-esteem, improves your health and makes you
feel happy. Happy
people are hope-filled. They look for positives. They
look for optimistic solutions. They pass it on.
Ever wonder what makes positive thinking so powerful. Imagine yourself entering a dark theater.
Look up and see the screen all white and ready for the film. As you find your seat, you begin
to anticipate the movie. Your mind is set to accept the screen’s images.
The power of positive thinking is a lot like entering the darkened movie theater. We have
a powerful white screen that awaits messages sent via our subconscious. The screen is stretched across our inner field of
consciousness. We are the projectionists. What we choose to direct onto our screen has a great deal to do with what we achieve.
Simply stated, the mind believes what it sees. Repeatedly projecting positive scenes that demonstrate our successful accomplishments
convinces the mind of there authenticity. The mind accepts the desired images as an actuality. By the same token, visualizing
negative images can set in place pessimistic and unconstructive mindsets.
Once we begin to positively utilize the white screen of our deep mind, we set into motion
a convincing screenplay that will unfold in our real life. Reaching deep within yourself, sit quietly and envision the specific
moment of your success. Visualize and replay your positive mental motion picture. See yourself on the large screen achieving
what you long for and desire. Remember – you must see yourself as having already attained that certain
objective in life. Don’t worry about all the parts it took to accomplish your goal. Concentrate on the positive and
successful finished product. View it on the wide screen, in black and white or in cinemascope and color. See it often. See
it until seeing it becomes easy.
Communication is essential
in today’s world. Not only is it a vital ingredient in the workplace and social arena, but it’s indispensable
to our mental health. Tensions build when not talked through. When we allow our unsettling thoughts to remain dormant in our
minds, we create roadblocks to wellbeing. Feelings of anger, anxiety, guilt, and insecurity can
fester in the darkness of the subconscious mind unless vented.
Enter the power of communication; the spoken and written word.
With the advent of the internet, the art of communication has become easier than ever. Speaking to one’s friends,
discussing issues in the work environment, or thrashing through concerns with your therapist or life coach all constitute
communication. However, in today’s world, communication through the technology of e-mailing has made talking (writing)
much easier and faster.
With basic e-mail skills you can keep in touch via e-mail, receiving and replying to the messages sent between coach
and client. In addition, I suggest to my clients during coaching sessions that repeating out loud the words we send and receive
creates a sense of continuous presence and peace. Communication via computer partnership enables client and coach to reveal
themselves through creative channels.
Holidays are
as much a part of forgiveness as celebrating. We tend to forget how important it is to let go of anger and frustrations
that weigh us down and keep us from the real holiday spirit.
Feelings of loneliness and despair are by-products
of old hatreds, grudges and angers bottled up inside of us. These self destructive malingerers can only grow in the arid soil
of ego pride if we let them.
.
Celebrate creative growth by rekindling the
spirit of forgiveness.
