Hope everyone's been doing good. I've been having a TON of fun pursuing a new found love for the art of Muay Thai (or Thai Boxing)...and getting into the best shape of my life has been a nice "side effect"Today I want to share some of my very latest breakthroughs in this skill and art of manifesting success and happiness. As you may have noticed from my last few videos, I've started to make a strong move towards "evidence based technologies" ...that's just a fancy way of saying "technology that's been proven to work better than placebos beyond a shadow of statistical doubt." So today I'm going to share how this shift in my thinking and research has led me to a very much improved belief change model...which has been working miracles with my private coaching clients. Wihtout further ado, let me present the: "Belief Buster Shortcut": Activate affective system via compassion -> EFT "-" Emotional Glue -> Mindful Rational Investigation -> Empowering Choice -> Check -> Immediate Reinforcing Action Let's break that down into steps... 1) Activate affective system via compassion Modern research on compassion has proved it's pretty much miraculous effect on our well-being, ability to change and willpower. For a summary check out the videos on my blog: http://alltoosimple.com/276/self-compassion-for-success/ To put it all very simply...by starting with compassion...and relating to the unwanted belief with compassion we immediately feel better and exponentially increase our chances of actually changing it! 2) EFT "-" Emotional Glue Next up is to zap the negative emotions surrounding the unwanted belief. Any emotions (even frustration at having it) help keep it glued in there...so take care of them all. 3) Mindful Rational Investigation All this point you'll be feeling a lot clearer and have a ton more "space" around the belief. Now is the perfect time to take a step back and logically analyse the belief...and the various assumptions that it's built on. Rationally challenge the assumptions...pick holes in them. Realize how the belief is possibly skewed or just inaccurate. To be mindful in this context means to see through cognitive distortions that may have previously clouded your thoughts and emotions. 4) Empowering Choice Once you've rationally picked apart the distortions and faulty assumptions unpinning the belief it's time to install something positive and empowering. Choose a more rationally sound belief or thought, one that reflects reality better and hopefully empowers you in the way you choose. Also when making this choice, ensure that it creates positive emotions within you. Tap this choice in using the choices form of EFT. 5) Check Check to see if the choice you made, and tapped in is creating positive emotions and empowering you to do what you want to do. If not, treat it with compassion, EFT any lingering negative emotions, apply mindful awareness and rational thinking...and make a better choice. Repeat until you have a belief that represents reality and empowers you in the way you choose. 6) Immediate Reinforcing Action Take immediate action that reinforces the new belief or choice you just made...ideally this will be a very small, easy step. This maximizes your chance of following through immediately which further cements the new belief within your unconscious mind. In my next mail, I'll be providing an example of how to use this process. Look out for that tomorrow! Best wishes, Rishan p.s.
