How To Overcome Mental Barriers
Friday, May 16, 2008
What Causes Mental Barriers...
mental barriers are cause by the little voice in our heads...
everybody has this voice...
that voice will either kill you or make you...
Arnold Schwarzenegger once said, “It is always the mind that fails first; not the body.”
it's true as
your thoughts create your feelings...
your feelings affect your actions...
and your actions produces the results..
let me give you an example...
its a true story of mine...
i used to have this little voice...
it always tell me not to go school...
whats the point of going to school...
you'll just face the same old shit again of being bullied...
therefore at that point of life...
i felt totally useless and hopeless...
i cant even defend myself...
i let this voice took control of me...
i followed everything it says...
stay and do nothing...
thus i rotted at home...
i felt really depress and totally useless...
and then one day...
i realize what i have been doing these few days...
and i told myself not to let he voice take control anymore...
forever...
thus i went back to school...
and everything that voice tried to voice out...
i will either just ignore it or think of something positive...
and thats how i overcome this voice...
by a simple action of overwhelming it...
if i can do it so can you...
now i am going to share 2 ways of overcoming that voice...
Re-Programming the Voice
before i share the 2 ways, i would like to say...
re-programming the voice is the hardest think to do in this world...
therefore you should be mentally prepared to change...
but in order to overcome it...
you will first need to be aware of it speaking...
firstly...
whenever the voice tries speaks when u tried to study...
interrupt it by saying something positive and empowering like...
think about a moment when you had a great time studying...
think about what you will become when you did well in your exams...
what will you feel like?
what kind of compliments will you receive?
what will you say to yourself when you look at your successful reflection in the mirror?
another tool to overcome to barrier is...
to keep a record of you life by either blogging or writing a journal...
there are two types of a journal or blogging...
they are...
"corny" journal and success journal...
a "corny" journal is all about how life has cheated you and how you are a victim of circumstance...
a success journal is about being aware of obstacles, learning from mistakes and successes alike. It contains documentation of how you overcame challenges and how you felt in those moments of despair and in those moments of joy, triumph and ecstasy...
a success journal is a great tool in your arsenal for overcoming that little voice and conditioning it to aid you in achieving your goals...
In conclusion...
do not ever ever let that voice take control..
even if the voice can make you...
always remember this...
only you can control you life...
only you can create miracles...
as you are who you are...
one of a kind and impossible to clone...
therefore life your life for yourself and not for that voice of yours...
lastly...
stay strong...
instead of that voice making the barrier to block out your voice...
secure the upper hand by create the barrier that blocks out the voice...
