"The Science Behind Being Reasonable."
We've all had moments where we think “no one in their right mind would do that” but you choose to be different - thank you for making the world a better place. Unfortunately, it's easy to get caught up in impulsive decisions and make rash choices that can leave us regretting our actions. Why not strive instead towards becoming more reasonable and logical? You deserve to feel rational at every point during your day! Those who are reasonable exude fairness, level-headedness and decency. Sometimes creating rational decisions requires the utilization of our subconscious minds to ensure that we stay on track. To successfully remain logical, a well thought out strategy is necessary.
Humans have two major thinking systems that come together to form decisions - the subconscious and logical minds. The former is a type of "gut reaction" which answers quickly without much thought, involving emotions like fear or excitement. It's this system that automatically kicks in when we need an answer fast.
In contrast, the logical system - sometimes referred to as the "thinking" system - helps us form more informed and reasoned decisions. It assists in assessing various options and weighing their pros and cons for a sensible conclusion. This process of mindful deliberation is invaluable when making rational choices.
Are you an impulsive shopper?
I recall someones client, a wealthy woman who was surrounded by countless expensive designer clothes – most of them never even worn! It is incredible to imagine the amount of clothing that filled her home. Her shopping approach was almost always buy-on-sight - she was a shopaholic at heart. I'm not sure if years down the line, we'd be seeing her on an episode of Hoarders. Now you may ask yourself, how do YOU shop? Are you sensible with your purchases or are you just as impulsive? Crafting a sensible shopping plan requires an organized, purposeful strategy. Set a goal that takes into account your external and internal environments as well as how you see, hear, and feel. Make sure the strategy is logical yet straightforward with minimal steps — unlike Simon's disorganized approach — so that once followed through on, it leads to a successful outcome.
Here is the one hypnotherapy script to help you remain reasonable, logical and adult in your choices
Sink into a deeper level of relaxation as you explore an unknown room. You find yourself surrounded by mirrors that reflect back to you something unexpected. As though in the midst of some hidden door, discover what appears before your eyes and embrace this newfound understanding with grace and curiosity. As you look in the mirror, you realize that your true identity remains unseen; only known to yourself. You are still on a journey of self-discovery and exploration, which may be perceived differently by others through their projections onto your appearance, conduct or dialogue. As a result of this newfound understanding, you can now realize that your anger was actually directed towards the idea of somebody directing their thoughts or deeds on to your true self. You know that this innermost part of yourself is secure and hidden away from view—it cannot be touched or harmed by anyone else's words or actions. When you appreciate this notion, it becomes easier to cope with difficult emotions like fear, anxiety and anger in a healthier manner.
Here's the thing: much of your anger is rooted in insecurity, and you can be confident that not only are you strong enough to face adversity head-on, but also that no harm will come to who you truly are. So I urge you—dive deep into yourself and uncover what lies at the core of your being.
Remember that what you do is distinct from who you are. You are a remarkable individual, not simply an individual doing things. Your being can alter all of your actions. Now if someone says you're worthless or unhappy, slow, etc., realize that if there were any truth to their words at all, it was only based on how they interpreted your doings; it has absolutely nothing to do with who truly and deeply you are as a person! You can't help but chuckle at the thought of being angered by people's shallow views on your actions. You have now decided to become more efficient in handling your rage, since you understand that true power comes from an indescribable attitude of not needing validation.
You are now aware that your mental and spiritual power is strong enough for you to effectively manage any negative emotions. Remember, your feelings don't define you; thus, it's entirely up to you who gets to hear them and how they will be expressed. From now on, you recognize that your power is not augmented through rage. Fury does nothing to ensure your security or offer the means of staying away from another. You have determined - and are pleased with this decision - to see anger as something which belongs to you, but doesn't define who you are just like any other emotion. Next time a situation comes up that would normally incite anger in you, take a step back and remind yourself: "I am not my anger. I'm the one who has to manage it. No matter what others may throw my way, it cannot penetrate me at my core, so there's no need for me to respond angrily."
As the situation progresses, you will begin to feel a pink haze take shape around your thoughts and emotions. Take a cleansing breath and make an effortless choice about how best to express your wrath. This journey is highly positive and motivates us all to open our minds and master new abilities. Let's start this awakening right now - count down from ten back to one!
