If you want to be a singer.

If you want to be a runner.

If you want to be a doctor.

If you want to be a lawyer.

If you want to be kinder.

If you want to be happier.

If you want to love someone.

If you want to be or do anything, imagine it done.

Imagining already being something or having changed something or done a particular thing, before you have, it is a powerful way of preparing yourself for that change and inspiring habits to change.

If you imagine yourself as the doing the thing you dream of, or being a different person, or with someone, you will act as if you already have and that is a powerful inspiration.

Mindset is all too often overlooked.

Anger, it’s a choice

We can’t stop anger, well unless we remove a part of our brain.

It happens in the limbic brain and that is the strongest part of our brain and where all the inputs go first.

What we can choose though is how we react to that initial anger.

Nothing good comes from reacting with anger towards others.

Anger can be good to help us make changes in ourselves, as we are always really angry with ourselves, not others. It is things within us that spark anger, blaming others is a mask.

Best to do a ‘shitty’ first draft in our heads or even on paper before reacting. That way we give ourselves time to react in a way that will not anger others or further anger ourselves.

Like everything in life, we get to choose the outcome by choosing how we behave.
