| Article: Inner Dolphins - Two Ways to Release Yours - by Edward & Janet Keyser | ||
|
Act as if Act "as if" the way you want to be IS the way you are. It will become more and more comfortable until it is real. The acting will eventually be replaced by the genuine feeling and belief. For example, let’s say you are experiencing a down moment. Perhaps you are tired or hungry, the reason doesn’t really matter. We all get and have stimuli that are “negative”. What does matter is that you “act as if” you were more positive. Force yourself to smile. Act as if the jerk didn’t just cut right in front of you. You, the conscious logical you, can influence the way your other selves, especially your subconscious interprets the event. We’re not suggesting that you be fake or hide your feeling or emotions. We are suggesting you can choose to act as if and you will have the positive feelings or emotions that you want. Act until it’s real. The more you have a feeling, forced or spontaneous, the more you engage the infinite power of the universe. Then your reality changes and even the logical conscious you will see and know. When you see and know then you don’t have to act anymore. It’s a circle of life. You begin. Your subconscious emotes. Your higher self fulfills the desires of your subconscious, and then your reality is changed. Act happy and become happier. Acting - a relationship tool “Acting-as-if” is a valuable relationship tool. Often times people that are close to us exhibit characteristics and mannerisms that are “unpleasant”. Perhaps your spouse isn’t as loving or thoughtful as you would like. Perhaps your children are not as industrious or organized as you would like. These stimuli can “make” you tired, frustrated, angry and wishing that things were different. Well what do you think would happen if you acted as if your spouse was the perfect lover and companion? Do you see how your “act” might actually help your spouse to be more attracted to you and consequently become a better lover or closer companion? The more friendly and loving you are; the more friends and love you will have. Try This: Force yourself to smile sometime when you don’t really feel like smiling. If you’re nervous, take a few minutes or seconds and act as if you’re confident and calm. You have to “force” yourself(s) to believe it. Did it work? The more you fake or make contentment, the more content you will be. The more affluent or rich you feel, the more affluent or rich you will become. CEBR - Catch Everyone Being Right We want good things to happen. We want to have fun and enjoy life. One way to enjoy life more is to "catch" yourself and those around you "being right". It turns out that a lot about our lives and our "performance" is right. Think about your interactions with your children and how you were treated when you were a child. It's too easy to let the "good" and "right" times slip by. Too often it's when things are going "wrong" that we are moved to speak; "Don't sit so close to the television." "Did you get your homework done?" "Finish your meal." "Pay attention". What happens is that most of the time we, our children, who ever, are being pleasant and doing things "right" and we don't say anything. The idea here is to "catch" these moments and comment on them. If someone does something for you, that's a great time to notice and say, "Thanks for clearing the breakfast dishes." "Thanks for emptying the trash." "Thanks for being home from school on time." We all want happiness and to get along with our family and friends. Working together, being friendly and in love is what life is all about. The more we recognize good things are happening in our lives, the more we predispose ourselves to have good things happen. When life is positive and fun, then life has the tendency to be even more positive and more fun. When we "catch" ourselves being right, it is a celebration of life and living together. Try this: Look for opportunities to comment when things are going well. Next time you're about to correct, warn, or catch someone being wrong, don't. Will it really matter if they sit a little to close to the TV? Do you think they have forgotten, "Don't sit so close to the television." Congratulate yourself for being aware; catch yourself being right. Keep track of whether you catch right or wrong and try and keep them even or better yet more "rights" than "wrongs". Say, "Thanks kids for playing together." Catch yourself being right too. How can that be wrong? |
