Training Your Mind to Avoid Stress

We all have a molecule of ease of about 21 inches nearby our body from head to toe. The best way to be able to step out of that zone and feel comfortable in doing so is to prepare for the surprises you will encounter. Mind management is something everyone can do! You just have to train your mind to plan your steps.

Over the past 19 years I have been training people of all walks of life to learn how to heighten their lifestyles by just planning their steps through mind management. The traditional tools used are the attention/focusing of their memory. Usa today published an description in the mid nineties that reported that most individuals spend 1 faultless year finding for lost misplaced or underground items. I say underground meaning they didn't plan to hide it they just did. Now that's one year of 24 hour days, a 365 day year of finding for lost misplaced or underground items.

Att Call Conference

If I could save you half of that unproductive time and if you are already through half of your life wouldn't you want to know how? Of course you would, unless you are mentally challenged and can't understand what I am referring to that is. Now when they conducted that study it was considered a longitudinal long term study. Meaning it was conducted over an 18+ year term and represented a mortality rate of nearby 78 years of age. So let's see if you are half of that age or 39 years or older and you could change your habits to cut that lost time for the next 39 years you would want to know how wouldn't you?

Ok here it is plain and simple. Mind management is just exactly what it says or sounds like, managing your mind or being more focused or attentive to your ways of doing things. Now if you are a someone who walks through life blaming everyone else for your screw ups you may not be able to adjust your habits the way I am going to illustrate to you. Not that you can't it's just that you probably won't. Now If I have offended you I am truly sorry, not. Let me say a new habit is formed by doing something for 21 days then the old habit is replaced with the new one. So for the interested party here we go.

I believe we all possess the capability to change ourselves, short of some form of dementia or debilitating problem.

That being said mind management is simply controlling your capability to be in the moment. That is a statement that is so profound that many people walk through life without ever knowing exactly how to do it. Impulsivity and just plain being arrogant or rude is another matter, so when I talk about mind management I am speaking to the someone that assuredly cares to be self managed.

The way we wake up every day or the option of our daily menu for life is something we all can decree right out of the gate. I strongly believe that all things in life is what you make it; it's not what is that counts but simply how you take it. Certain views of situations will go a long way in helping to conduct your mind. Short of unbridled Add or Adhd you can be attentive, controlled and Certain everyday. It's a concentrated endeavor that makes you a Certain someone in your outlook of things.

Stress is something that can be controlled in your life to a great extent. Some stress is Certain and you can learn how to harness your periods of stress to a great degree. That being said let me say that some stress is Certain and only you can decree what that level is. Some people work best under stress others don't.

Here are some techniques on how to lower your stress levels when it comes to remembering what, when, where and why. The description I mentioned above centered on finding for lost misplaced or underground items. You know like when you come into your office in the morning and you lay your keys down on the table, desk, bookshelf or hopefully not some final resting place. You work a while slaying those dragons that raise their ugly head and got your concentration when you walked in. Then, it turns out to be a concentrate of hours of dragon slaying and now its 11:30 and you have to rush out to your lunch appointment. Uh oh now you are late for that appointment you made because not only do you stress out finding for your car keys over the next ten minutes, but you have the whole office stressed out helping you look as well.

Well here is the straightforward way to avoid that happening to you ever again. I call it the F.P.G. System. F=File. A mental location or somewhere to store information, P - Stands for picture, because your mind works in pictures and G- stands for glue it's the bonding agent to keep the photo in the file long sufficient to replacement from your short term memory to the long term memory. Just to clear up that statement let me say your mind works in pictures, for instance, do not think of an elephant. What just happened, when you read that last sentence did you see a big grey body, big ears, long trunk, fat legs huge body. Sure it did you didn't spell e-l-e-p-h-a-n-t out you can do that if I ask you to but no your mind threw up a large animal photo into your mind of an elephant. You see your mind works in pictures! Your remember when you were in kindergarten, 1st grade etc and above the walls on a border you saw the alphabet and under A was a photo of an apple B a boy or a bat, C a cat or a cow, D a dog or a deer and pretty soon you learned sufficient pictures and alphabet to come up with words, then sentences, and paragraphs and on and on.

So see your mind works in pictures. So if that's how it works let's give it pictures or learn to photo our way through life not memorize our way through life. You see memorization causes stress. Rote, recapitulation stresses us out believe me.

Now let's get back to the scene where you and your company are scrambling nearby the office stressed out finding for your keys. In that scenario our recipe of Fpg the keys are the pictures, the Desk etc is the file and all you have to add to the recipe is the glue or the bonding agent to keep the photo in the file long sufficient to move it from the short term memory to the long term memory. Now operation active operation drives the glue, and the larger than life more appealing photo the best it will bond.

Let's go back over when you came into the office and laid your keys down and reconstruct how to not lose, misplace, hide them or forget where you put them ever again. Here's how I would do it. When I come into the office and lay the keys down on the desk in my mind I fly the keys through the air 90 miles and hour and make them stick into the top of the desk. That way when I start finding for my keys at 11:30 in establishment to go to my appointment I just reconstruct the scenario in my mind, let's see where are my keys oh when I came in this morning they were flying through the air at 90 miles and hour and they stuck up into the top of that desk. Then when I walk over to the desk and no matter how many papers, file folders, books etc that are laying on top of my keys I simply just move them aside grab my keys and off I go to my lunch date.

Simple mind management is what I use to remember where I put things. Some people might make the desk blow up or melt down or grow puny appealing feet and run off with your keys. No matter what operation you use the operation of File photo Glue will bond the process so that you can recall where your keys are every time. Well unless you have a daughter like mine that when she found out when dad grabbed his keys an went to work yesterday she remembered that and so today she hides your keys, you see then no theory will work for that.

Stress can be controlled if you discipline your life positively. You can step out of the molecule of ease every time and know that you are prepared. This is just one straightforward way to help your recall, there are many more techniques to use for your steps in life to lower and many times eliminate the stressors you commonly encounter.

Another one I use is a set of body files. These body files are predetermined files on my body that I file facts on to recall where, what, when and why. Let's say I get up to go into the kitchen leaving my easy chair at a commercial break to get a snack and come back with it. Oh you know the scenario you are hungry you go into the kitchen to get a snack. On the way to the kitchen after leaving the security of your easy chair, a phone call comes in or one of your family members yell something at you. Now that requires you to go into mental mode about what the inquire is that they asked. You talk after logically reconstructing what they needed in your mind and you offer the solution. They go on about their way leaving you standing in the kitchen wondering what you came into the kitchen for. All of a sudden the show comes back on and you scamper back into the den to see what is happening on your show. A puny while later that hunger pain hits again and you think well heck you didn't get what you wanted in the kitchen and when the next commercial comes on you will get up and go back in there to get something to snack on.

I know I used to do the same thing, but not anymore, I simply put the Fpg theory to work. I simply file whatever I am going to get up and get in the kitchen on my toes with a lot of visualization imagery and action, before I do get up to go to the kitchen. Then, no matter how many interruptions I have on the way to the kitchen I look down on my toes after the question or the interruption is solved and see the snack on my toes. I visualized it and I put on my toes before I came in to the kitchen to get it and am on about my firm before the show starts again. straightforward mind management goes a long way in life believe me.

I use my body files to store my things to do list for daily events for work and play, believe me when I say I am not going to use the last six months of my year finding for lost misplaced or underground items in my lifetime! I am going to live in the moment as much as inherent and by using the Fpg recipe lower my stress levels every chance I get. Remember mind management is attainable by everyone if you just learn how to plan your steps and step through your plan. establishment is the name of the game, just do it!
