Think Right and change your world

Friday, January 2nd, 2009

You have an amazing Power attached to your thoughts. Think about this. POWER connected to your THOUGHTS. Rephrase: Energy connected to your thinking. Now that you have heard this, do you instinctively concern yourself about the thoughts that endlessly run through your mind? And what about that little “babbling voice” that lives somewhere back there and drives thousands of people to see their therapists every week. When you search for it - it says:”Voice? Voice? What voice? I don’t hear any voice?” THAT’S THE VOICE. You think that voice doesn’t drive people nuts. Guess how much money is spent on mental health every year in the US? The real reason behind the psychotherapy - inability to control one’s inner babbling chatterbox. The goal here is for you to ThinkRight.

Maybe, you think that voice doesn’t drive people nuts. Do you have any idea how much money is spent on psychiatry and psychiatric hospitals every year in the US? No one does, the American Psychiatric Association keeps the true cost secret. Did you know that the real reason behind the psychiatry is usually - the inability to control one’s inner babbling chatterbox. The goal here is for you to know how to ThinkRight.

How’s your own self image. Self image is the result of your own thinking, positive or negative - or wrong or right, if you want. If you want to change, you’ll just have to admit that you need the change and then make the change. The THINKRIGHT program by Dr. Jay Polmar will cause the change needed in you, by just thinking.

Fear of change is the great restriction to many people. They don’t realize that to change means to grow and evolve. Are you responsible enough to your life to say: “I must change, I will change, and I am changing”?

Isn’t it time to give yourself the opportunity to change. Be a winner in life just by opening your mind and your heart to listen to your own insights and intuition. Although they aren’t the only path to success, they are the easiest. To succeed, just listen to the inner voice of wisdom and not any chatterbox voice of fear. All those people who can’t hear that voice because of their uncontrolled babbling voice, aimlessly drift through life in a filled with fear and doubt. You can stop the drifting through fear; learn how to THINKRIGHT — open yourself to the true winner within.

The Difference Between Self Esteem and Ego

Tuesday, December 9th, 2008

There’s a lot of talk about “self esteem”, how to have it, what it is, what it means. However, what passes for self esteem is often simply ego. That might seem a perplexing statement. First let’s get a little clarity on what healthy self esteem is. It is a balanced and unexaggerated self respect and self love. It combines a healthy regard for the self with a healthy regard for others. Healthy self esteem esteems others as equally as the self. Others are treated and regarded as respectfully as the self.

Ego, on the other hand, always believes in its own self importance above the importance of others. Ego always requires outside approval, validation, and constant attention and gratification. Ego believes in its own superiority above all others. Some versions of ego insist on inferiority as a role. Both inferiority and superiority are lies though, and variations of the same theme — of feeling “less than” others. Here are some ways to recognize ego and distinguish it from self esteem:

1.) It’s ego when we are condescending, rude or disrespectful of wait staff, retail clerks, parking valets, or anyone we imagine is “less important” than us. Those with healthy self esteem are respectful to all they come into contact with.

2.) It’s ego when we use anger to manipulate others, get our way, or attempt to communicate our supposed superiority. Those with healthy self esteem have healthy boundaries and desire to communicate respectfully and non-manipulatively.

3.) Ego is about the one note song, “mi, mi, mi”. When we talk incessantly about ourselves and show no interest in others that comes from ego. A person with healthy self esteem does not need to be the center of attention at all times. Healthy self esteem is more frequently expressed by showing genuine interest in others, and making sure conversation flows among all participants.

4.) When we are expressing ego, we are spectacularly lacking in compassion. We judge harshly, show no empathy, and find fault easily. When we are expressing healthy self esteem, we are able to be compassionate without being codependent (unable to set healthy boundaries, “people pleaser”). We are able to understand the viewpoints of others and have a genuine interest in them.

5.) When we are being egotistical, we believe we know everything about everything and that we are right about everything we “know”. We believe that the opinions of others are “stupid”, ill-advised and just plain wrong. When we are coming from healthy self esteem, we are willing to hear the opinions of others and we’re able to entertain the notion that their opinion is their opinion and we don’t have to agree. Both people can be right (and OK).

6.) When we are coming from ego, we are unwilling to pay the least attention to the interests of others. We single mindedly expect everyone to share our interests, but don’t reciprocate. When we have healthy self esteem, we are curious about the interests of others. Even if we don’t want to actually share the interest, we want to share their delight in their interest.

7.) Impatience is frequently a sign we are expressing from ego. Often, it derives from feeling self important and that the world owes us attention (or priority) whenever we want it. Sometimes our impatience is actually the result of our own failures such as not leaving in enough time to get somewhere and being highly impatient in traffic. When we’re coming from healthy self esteem, we have highly developed patience and we live our lives strategically enough that we don’t waste our time in situations that require extreme patience.

There is a huge difference between ego and healthy self esteem. The most significant thing is that when we are coming from ego, it is obvious to everyone but us!
