[Quote No.55336] Need Area: Mind > Persist
"Given the negativity bias of the brain, which evolved in the distant past when our survival depended more on being 'safe rather than sorry' and therefore jumping before asking questions, it is natural for us to picture the worst about the future. The unfortunate thing about this is after you have done all you can to prepare for the future this kind of negative idea-image focusing - for example worrying in competitions - actually impairs your performance. Knowing this therefore it is useful, in these situations, to not focus on what you don't want to happen but instead to focus on what good, positive things you want to happen, which - by decreasing your debilitating fear - increases their likelihood, making a positive self-fulfilling prophecy!" - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

[Quote No.56861] Need Area: Mind > Persist
"'Prime the pump' refers to how water had to be pumped for some time before any arrived. The saying today means you have to put something in before you get something out. It is important to remember you have to keep putting in and putting in consistently and persistently initially with little to show for it at first if you want to eventually get something out. The benefit though is that once something starts coming out, the effort required to keep it coming out is less than initially required. Inertia and momentum are now with you rather than against you. So don't quit too soon if you wish to see results or you will have thrown all the effort away." - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

[Quote No.71516] Need Area: Mind > Persist
"[Learn; Imagine; -Persist; Evolve; Progress; Leadership; Children; Conversation; Gratitude; Satisfaction; Enjoyment; - high anticipation and high expectations:] I have heard from many people that they don’t want to set high goals and have high expectations and anticipate high achievements because they have learned that to do so they would feel the painful bite of disappointment should they fail. So as a defense mechanism to protect themselves from potentially feeling disappointment or failure, they would keep their goals, aspirations and expectations low and thereby avoid feeling let down if things didn’t go as planned. That was certainly my experience too. But I found that the problem with setting low goals and expectations was that this effected my own ambition, motivation, drive, persistence and capacity to push myself beyond my past comfort zones and strive for higher achievements, as well as those around me, including my family, friends and staff. That I and they would then be deliberately settling for mediocrity and not putting in the effort required to even try to reach my and their full potential for their good and the good of all concerned. I also couldn’t see how individuals, families - including children, groups, teams, companies, countries, societies, etc would achieve, advance, improve, grow, evolve (especially self-actualize from Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs) and progress without setting high goals, expectations and role modelling these to and for others. So low expectations as a solution came, I thought, with too high costs to those that used it, including myself and those I cared about. I thought there must be better solution than just either feeling great pressure and disappointment in not meeting the goals or feeling little pressure and not living up to a person’s potential for achievement and happiness. My eventual solution was to set high goals, expectations, role models and to enjoy anticipating reaching these WHEN LOOKING TOWARDS THE FUTURE and trying to be motivated and grow and improve my own and others’ lives. But should I or others not reach those high aspirations I realised that to avoid the feeling of disappointment, failure and unhappiness and becoming demoralised, I and they would need to employ the human ability to not only compare THE PAST AND THE PRESENT with something better and thereby feel bitter, disappointed and frustrated but that at that point and position in a deliberate attempt, intention and goal to feel better, that I and they could and should then deliberately choose to compare THE PAST AND THE PRESENT with something worse, rather than better, and therefore feel encouraged, relieved and gratefully happy that the situation was not worse. Then I and they could feel and encourage themselves and others to be motivated and energized to learn from the experience and try again or for something even better next time. This would then be good for me, those I care about, those I am leading and for society, civilisation and humanity in general.

[Quote No.71675] Need Area: Mind > Persist
"[The emotion of anger - and its associated behavior force, while often natural, are rarely the most constructive - or socially acceptable and civilized - ways to overcome an unmet need or frustrated desire - a problem, puzzle, difficulty, etc. At these times it is better to get more information so you can learn, imagine, plan and problem-solve better, alone and with the help of others. So remember...] Get curious, not furious!!" - Seymour@imagi-natives.com
