The power of our imagination
In a previous post I had written already about the different interpretations of certain situations. Here's an example: one person is looking forward to a trip by plane - it combines so pleasant. The other person is afraid of weeks before the departure date. He is afraid to come crashing in turbulence, or the like. He sees only the unpalatable. Although both rise from the same aircraft at the end of the journey, is the first to tell with a smile: "A great flight, the pilot has mastered the small turbulence play. The second is covered in sweat and pale said: "The turbulence was awful, we were almost crashed
So you can see how strongly influenced our thinking, our lives. The importance you attach to a situation determines how you feel.
A test that determines many orders:
Imagine a cut lemon. Watch the juicy, yellow-green flesh into the yellow cup? Smell the sour scent of the proceeds from the lemon? Now imagine how you bite into this lemon, the juice is sour in your mouth. What happened to you? Warping the face during the presentation or to buy more saliva? Certainly you respond to one or the other way. And, although the lemon existed only in your imagination!
Because our body reacts so strongly to our imagination, it is important to stress, our thinking, our attitude to observe and to see what we can change. This can not be created in a few days, but the repeated practice will affect your way of thinking, so you feel better after a few weeks and can tolerate stressful situations calmly.
Because even the ancient philosopher Epitket said
"disturb not the things themselves, the people, but the idea of things."
