7 tricks, we deceive ourselves
Motivation / / December 19, 2019
Anyone, even the most successful and energetic, sometimes experiencing bouts of laziness, procrastination and unwillingness to do anything. However, some easily cope with these attacks and go to jog received by institutes and fly to stars, while others just keep quiet rot in place, unable to overcome his inertness. And the reason is only that they just were not able to recognize and defeat the lies slips us helpfully consciousness.
I do not he
"Why he has made, managed, did I not? Well, I'm just not it. He won a smart, strong, fast, rich, and I have that? "
Yes, we are all different. We all have different abilities and starting opportunities. However, this is not a reason to conclude that one gives some super powers, while others - not. We like to compare ourselves with people who are at the zenith of his career, but completely lose sight of that at the start they were no better off than we are. Therefore correct to think quite differently:
If he did, then I can.
I like it here well
"Why do I need this change-excitement when I now pretty comfortable? To lose what I already have? "
It's really cool that you feel comfortable and happy in the present tense. But what about the future? After all, no one state does not last forever, and still change will come to you, whether you like it or not. And it's better to be prepared for it. And this should still develop and grow.
I can do this later
"Right now I'm too busy. I have children, work, obligations, dog. Here I shake myself a little and start. "
Delaying kills all undertakings. And does so quietly and silently, like a boa constrictor strangles its prey. "Today" is transformed into "tomorrow", then in the "new year", and then "never." Inglorious death, is not it?
Remember this boa constrictor that is waiting for your good intentions. Beat him very easy, and this firmly enough to remember and repeat every time you see him, just one question:
And why should not I do it now?
I do not know how
"I would have done, I would have learned, and I certainly would become. But I dont know how. No one to help me, and I myself can not do it. "
About mein Goth, it's incredible!
No, in the last century, this phrase had a right to life. Indeed, in order to excel in the chosen business, sometimes you need a long period of training, mentors, literature. But now, when you can find information on any subject courses from the best institutes, training videos, literature on the Internet. No, it's exactly this argument does not work.
It is not very important
"In principle, I do not care. It does not matter much to me. "
This is a big and very dangerous lie. Only your life and the events or actions that can change it, really matter. Nobody else will do anything for you, does not teach and will not help if you do the gesture. The wind blows only in the expanded sails.
I'm afraid
"What if I screw up? Everyone will laugh. Or sympathize. Or despise me. In any case, it's terrible. "
Every story of success was preceded by a series of misfortunes, and we have repeatedly We wrote about it. The share of the most prominent businessmen, artists, scientists had a number of errors, failures and ridiculous Feil that others in their place would have shot themselves several times. However, this did not prevent them to become what they are today. Therefore it is better to replace these fears to another thought:
If I do not try, then indeed all would laugh at me and sympathize. And I despised myself I can handle myself.
I do not like change
"I just do not like all these things, and your new shocks. I am a conservative. So what?"
No, nothing. There are people who are open-minded, and there are people who hate it. And it is their right.
But before you finally retreat into the lock of his conservatism, stands still to remember exactly what changes have given you everything, than you with pleasure using now. And you came to light only because of your dad and mom decided at one point to a very big change in my life. After all, the truth is great that they were not conservatives?
