CHANGE YOUR REALITY
I recall, my mentor once looking at me and saying:
Oh, you have a challenge?
I say: I have a huge problem! (my hands showing the size of the problem)
He says with a smile: A challenge, yeah?
I let out a sigh and noticed that my hands had come closer together. The word, ‘challenge’ replaced, ‘problem’ and its dimensions and his smile made my dark feelings better.
That day, I realized that as a Life Coach I was to pay attention to WORDS! WORDS have POWER and POWER to CREATE MY REALITY!
A minor tweak here and there, I not only felt better but also realized that I was playing with a football when all it was, was a ping pong ball!
CHANGE YOUR WORDS, CHANGE THE WAY YOU FEEL, CHANGE YOUR REALITY!
For example:
Actual: It’s such a gloomy day and I feel so sad!
Change: I can have a steaming cup and feel warm again!
Actual: My boss is such a grumpy person; he annoys me!
Change: My boss resembles one of the seven dwarves that now I find him as a part of fairy tale that will end happily!
QUIZ: Now try this…Transform these to see how it feels different!
- My presentation is just not up to the mark; I can’t impress anyone
- The kids are just failing at their studies; I must be a bad mom
- My health is mostly average
- Life isn’t fun anymore
- Why don’t people understand me the way I am?
