[Quote No.15058] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"In order to control ourselves it is important that we learn to control our imaginations - as our bodies can't tell the difference between reality and what is vividly imagined. Throughout the past individuals have used this understanding by meditating on positive thoughts and images, flooding their imaginations with positive quotes, statements or even single words. This process is called 'verbal flooding' and is a very effective way to focus the imagination on what is desired and therefore change the neural structure of the brain -based on Nobel Prize winning scientist, Dr. Gerald Edelman's Theory of Neural Darwinism, which suggests the neural pathways of the brain evolve during a person's life depending on the use they get, something like muscles improving when they are used more. Therefore frequent repetition of positive words can have a strong positive effect on a person's attitudes and abilities. Using this knowledge allows people to create the kind of thoughts and attitudes that they desire, in a similar way to how athletes develop their muscles." - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

[Quote No.15527] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"No man's spirits were ever hurt by doing his duty. On the contrary, one good action, one temptation resisted and overcome, one sacrifice of desire or interest purely for conscience's sake, will prove a cordial for weak and low spirits far beyond what either indulgence, or diversion, or company can do for them.

[Quote No.15757] Need Area: Mind > Focus
"Enthusiasm is the dynamics of your personality. Without it whatever you may possess lies dormant: and it is safe to say that nearly every man has more latent power than he ever learns to use. You may have knowledge, sound judgment, good reasoning faculties; but no one - not even yourself - will know it until you discover how to put your heart into thought and action." - Thomas Alva Edison
