"Our bodies change our minds,
and our minds can change our behavior,
and our behavior can change our outcomes.
So if the goal is confidence,
don't fake it til you make it....
Fake it till you become it"
Amy Cuddy
People say that "You don't smile because you're happy. You're happy because you smile". Our brain determines our emotions based on our physical situation. So, when you smile, your muscle tells your brain that you're happy. And your brain will produce the hormones and will transmit the appropriate emotion accordingly. Well, just watch this video and she'll tell you exactly what it is, I can't. It is incredible.
We all have power to change our situation, we have to believe and know that we can. It only seems difficult because we let it think that way. Through out our life, we often get used to think in certain way. That habit can be build based on your cultural background, religious background, or educational background... anything. It can be any reason. And when you're so accustomed to that particular way of thinking, you don't even realize that there are some other ways. Or perhaps, you might see it, but not being able to comprehend or put that into action. Getting our of your comfort zone and try new thing is not something easy at all., especially, when you're doing that for a long time! (All your life, even!) But we all have to grow as a human being, and as a part of this big Universe. We all want what's better, don't we?! And we are all capable of doing that. As a matter of fact, that's what we're suppose to do.
Whatever it is that you want to do, or be, ACT like one. The burning desire in you were planted in, because you're capable of making it happen.
Let's start with this... every morning you wake up, look at yourself in the mirror, give yourself a big smile and say
"My life is full of love, happiness and blessings.
All the good things are happening right now and I'm loving it!
Thank you!"
We're all meant to have fun. If we're living our lives anyways, why not have fun!?
