People have abilities that are a double edged sword. One of those is our ability to remember. Some memories are sources of strength and inspiration, other memories reinforce doubt, limitations, and nightmares.
Problem
While you can’t eliminate the negative experiences, your attention can focus on neutralizing their affect on your future. Even with the positive energy of desires, passion, and determination to succeed in goals and dreams the negative memories often act as time bombs. They seem set to go off just when we are about to reach an important milestone in our life.
Hint to an Answer
Here is an example revealing a clue on how to equalize the playing field. If I drink a shot glass of strychnine it would turn me into a candidate for ghost status. Yet, if I add a 55 gallon barrel of water to the strychnine the only thing it has the power to do is clean my teeth and cause a tingle. This is the same way to minimize the impact of negative memories.
We cannot change genetics like ethnicity, gender, or the past. We each have the ability to create new experiences, thoughts and facts. Our equivalent to adding the 55 gallons of water is to begin to make new memories that become the facts of the future. What does that look like?
Solution
First we have to seed our mind with new knowledge. We have the ability to program ourselves to expect a different outcome. Literally a “brain washing” needs to take place. This is where we change our thinking by what we begin to feed ourselves. A life of learning anew begins.
We allow ourselves to be influenced by the successful thinking. By daily reading books, associating with successful people, changing what we say to ourselves, and finding a mentor/coach. These become tools to change our behaviors to create new habits. This creates new facts in your life.
As these activities become daily practices changes begin to take place in our thinking. Here are a few things we can add to our activities:
- Organize our daily activity using a calendar
- Create a list of task as a reminder
- Track the most important task
- Value relationships by investing attention
- Forgive people who offended you
- Separate yourself from toxic persons
- Seek to control only yourself
- Do selfless acts of charity
By engaging ourselves in this manner we began a flood of new facts and experiences that neutralize our negative memories that sets you up to live a life of new facts that place us on a success track.
