You love your friends and associates, but sometimes your profound emotions, feelings and thoughts are all that hold the most important place around you, yourself and your shadow. So you hear to your mind , your thoughts and ignore the rest around you . It is all about you and your problems. Well, don't worry you are not abnormal and your habits or actions are supported by scientists. You are just being homo sapiens and acting like normal as you should note that according to Dr. Paul MacLean and his Triune theory of the brain. Your instinctual (oldest) brain is one of the most complex entity in the universe and concerned about your survival 24/7. Dr. MacLean calls it the Reptilian Complex. The fact is that you are the director, producer and the actor of the movie of life you live and hence your ego is your only critic respected by you. The brain structures are complex and intimately linked to pleasure and pain together with learning, memory and motivation. So What Motivates You? Feelings motivate the behaviors of humans in a very profound way. We believe most of the times we see and that picture has long lasting impact on our desires, attitude etc. Remember, Feelings follow imagery. Most people would give anything to continuously remain motivated. Your conscious mind can help in a big way that is one can motivate themselves to study, learn and remember by using conscious mind (will power) to create and maintain mental movies of positive outcomes and successfully completed activities. Start on guided-imagery. Exercise of guided imagery prior to studying, test-taking, interviews can be very helpful. If you take presentations by creating mental scenes of your success, you can see yourself holding the returned exam with top grades at the top, and let your face break into a wide smile. Imagine, instead you are the Executive Vice President and you have a board at your office on the door entrance reading Executive Vice President. You are fully relaxed and your feet are crossed on top of your antique desk. When you feel pleasure due to mental visualization prior to an interview or giving a presentation to your board of directors, it affects your feelings for up to 60 minutes,This can help you boost your motivational and performance levels in a big way. You attract the same feelings of success. Is there something you can do to access your visual and auditory cortices and mentally hear the enthusiastic applause as you achieve something? I tell you a secret. Use your creative imagination to install the achievement and applauding scene as a long-term memory in your brain. You are inventing your own permanent memories and writing your own script. To be most successful with visualization you have to go in depth and do visualizing in details. Meditation can also help here. Try to include all the feelings of smell, touch and other feelings in your visualizations and you will soon get there. You have to remember the smell, taste, sights and sounds of your personal success and use it to create more of the same and you will soon find that everything you visualized will soon take you towards your goals.. Affirmations are great to train your unconscious mind for later on showing some peak performances. If you repeat something positive that you want to yourself silently or in a whisper for 2-3 minutes daily for 21 consecutive days, with a burning desire and strong feelings,it will eventually becomes a command and your various inner parts will stick to the task religiously. Most people can't believe that. How can meditation, visualization or meditation prove to be so effective as to change the entire life of a individual. Well, motivating words and symbols at the right times of day enter your comfort-zone and from there on directly enter both hemispheres of your brain. Some times are so important that you should definitely practice affirmations there like just prior to falling asleep (hypnagogoic) and prior to fully awakening (hypnopompic). During meditation and periods of Daydreaming are such times where the effect of affirmations are also to the max. During these precious moments your brain has a vibrational frequency (EEG brainwave rhythm) which accepts conscious suggestions called Affirmation or orders. Such orders will take you a long way in fulfilling our goals. When the order is received as the message by your brain, it searches you long-term memory for relevant associations, and uses your senses to continue to examine your ongoing environment. It begins to seek positive results automatically. Since the 1980s professional athletes used affirmations and guided imagery and largely benefited with them as it is a mental practice (rehearsal) to win and almost guaranteed to make you win.
