Ever thought about whether you are operating in a cause mode or an effect mode?
Put another way, do you cause things to happen?
Do you put yourself in control of events and your emotions and feel empowered? Do you react in a positive way to things that don’t serve your needs, finding solutions and moving forward?
Or do you feel the effect of other’s actions and words ? that you are not in control and that things happen to you? Do certain people or events “make” you upset or angry? and you feel you have no choice in the way you react.
Do you hear yourself saying, “they make me feel so useless” or “my job makes me miserable”?
Because, actually, you do have a choice in the way you react!
You can take responsibility for your reactions. It isn’t the events or people in our lives that cause the problem. It is our thought processes surrounding them.
Instead of saying “my job makes me miserable” wouldn’t it feel better to say, “I am going to leave that job because I don’t enjoy it”. Then cause something better to happen by taking responsibility for your next positive step forward.
Personal power comes from living on the cause side of the cause and effect equation.
If you feel that you would like to be more in control, then Solution Focused Hypnotherapy can help. Being Solution Focused can increase your confidence and help you to be the cause of things and not just suffer the effects.
