Success Habit 5 : The secret to changing the way you feel

Thank you everyone for your continual support for success habits. As habit 5 comes out of the "oven" , i would like to thank Mr Anthony Robbins for his guidance through his books "Awaken the Giant Within" and "Unlimited Power"

3 factors affect the way we feel (our emotions) and they are:

1 ) Physiology
2 ) Langauge we Use
3 ) Beliefs / Focus

Today i'll be sharing with everyone point 2 ) , the words we use

Simply changing the words we use can change the way we feel!

For example when someone made me angry last time , i realise this was what i told myself

" He got my raw nerve now ! Hes REALLY irritating me"

can you see what a strong langauge i had? raw nerve , REALLY , IRRITATING

Its no wonder i felt so angry!

The next time i felt myself feeling angry and hitting the "raw nerve" i asked myself

"What colour is the raw nerve?"

"What if i cooked the nerve , would it be edible?"

That absolutely broke my "Anger" pattern, cause i found it ridiculous and i started laughing.

Then i went on to tell myself this

" He made me feel a little uncomfortable"

" Yea , he pisses me off a little"

I realise after i changed the words i used with myself, i didnt feel so angry anymore!

The above dictates anger.

The same applies to every single emotion we have!

Just follow the two steps :

1) Break your pattern - ask yourself something ridiculous
2) Replace your old words with new & better words

For those of you readers out there , try it out now! (Remember habit 4)

Credits goes to Mr Anthony Robbins for teaching me about the power of words (Please buy his book for further information)

Have a great day!
