Your ability to distort your current reality is one of your many subconscious filters of perception.
This ability (like anything in life) can be both useful and unuseful depending on how it's applied.
On the positive side, distorting reality allows you to set goals and to dream and visualise.
BUT - often we distort our reality unusefully. ????
For example, you might think someone doesn't like you simply because they don't reply to your email or phone call.
Or you could think because your latest program or course didn’t sell, that 'means' you are not going to be successful.
But in reality, things just are, and we place meaning on them. Humans are always seeking meaning. And the meaning we form through the way we distort events in our reality can cause us to step into useful or unuseful emotional states.
So, how can we use our filter of distortion in a useful way?
Let me provide an example:
领英推荐
I want you to think about something you have been trying to make a decision or take action on.
Maybe it’s getting fit. Maybe it’s quitting your job and committing to your business full-time. Maybe it’s going on a date? Maybe it’s selling your house to pay off all your debts. Choose something that stands out to you.
I want you to imagine your life in 5-10 years’ time if you DO this thing. Imagine it in great detail.
Take a moment to really distort your current reality and imagine it.
Now I want you to imagine your life in 5-10 years’ time if you don’t do this thing. Imagine it again in great detail.
This distortion of your current reality can be useful to give you clarity and perspective. It is likely to show you the right way to go and give you more motivation in either direction.
Unfortunately, without training our mindset we can get caught in loops of distorting reality in 'unuseful' ways... things like worry, overwhelm and fear are all usually based on imagining things going 'wrong' or not focusing our mind in useful ways.
This is simply one practical example of how we use our mindset to create positive outcomes in our NLP Practitioner (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) training.
We have upcoming courses online and in Adelaide in June and September 2024. Visit www.evolveandrelaunch.com.au for more details or comment NLP below and my assistant can give you more info. ??
