Thinking Positively
  • Setting goals

  • Why do we set goals?
  • What are your goals?

3
Thinking Positively
  • Lets look behind the scenes
  • How do we set goals?
  • What informs the process?
  • Where does the information come from?
  • Where does emotional well being fit in?
  • How do emotions influence our goals?
  • What is the biggest thing that stops us?

4
Thinking Positively
  • Belief systems paradigms! These all have their
    roots in the subconscious programming that occurs
    from the moment that life begins in the human
    psyche. (Culture is a group habit).
  • People which leg of your pants do you put on
    first? Parental programming!

Thinking Positively
  • If you always do what you always do, you will
    always get what you always get!
  • If you do nothing, then the results will continue
    to be the same and add to the fuel.
  • Changing the way you think is the only way to
    make positive changes in your life
  • Making choices - experimenting
  • Where do thoughts come from and how can we change
    them?

7
Thinking Positively
  • Fears impact goals in a negative way where do
    they come from?
  • What are paradigms?
  • To ignore the power of paradigms to influence
    your judgement is to put yourself at risk when
    exploring the future Joel Barker (Author of
    Paradigms)

8
Thinking Positively
  • What are paradigms?
  • Paradigms are a multitude of habits often they
    are other peoples habits!
  • Negative paradigms typically manifest as negative
    results in life
  • Positive paradigms typically manifest as positive
    results in life
  • Paradigms are belief systems

9
Thinking Positively
  • How do we think?
  • Think about your car, your sweetheart, your home,
    your favourite food...
  • What goes on in your mind?
  • So, lets ask the question again... How do we
    think?

10
Thinking Positively
  • We think in pictures
  • You know what things look like
  • You watch the pictures change as you go through
    life you adjust your paradigm
  • Can you picture a broken leg?
  • Can you picture a broken mind?

11
Thinking Positively
  • Can you picture a mind?
  • What does your mind look like?
  • If you dont know what your mind looks like, how
    can you change it?
  • What can we use to paint a picture of the mind?

12
Thinking Positively
  • Paint a picture with your own understanding
  • Only then can you change your beliefs

13
Thinking Positively
14
Thinking Positively
  • The conscious mind

  • The subconscious mind
  • Emotions
  • Feelings
  • Paradigms (behaviour patterns)

15
Thinking Positively
  • Whats the single biggest difference between
    the conscious mind and the subconscious mind?

16
Thinking Positively
  • The subconscious mind cant tell the difference
    between what is imagined and what is real.
  • (Its why simulators work!)

17
Thinking Positively
  • The Auto-pilot (subconscious mind)
  • Learning to ride a bike
  • Learning to drive
  • Learning to fly
  • Learning to swim

18
Positive Thinking
  • To create a picture of the mind
  • First create a picture in the conscious mind
  • Then imprint it on our subconscious mind

Positive Thinking
20
Positive Thinking
  • PARADIGMS
  • Imagine you earn 10,000pa
  • Now try thinking you earn 100,000pa
  • The autopilot rejects the idea
  • It doesnt fit
  • Belief system reinforced

21
Thinking Positively
  • To change the way you think you have to go back
    and understand how you learned...
  • To drive a car
  • To walk
  • To swim
  • You had to establish a paradigm so your
    subconscious could take over (auto-pilot)

22
Positive Thinking
23
Positive Thinking
  • It is the conscious mind that created the
    paradigm in the first place.
  • What influences the conscious mind?
  • Seeing
  • Hearing
  • Taste
  • Touch
  • Smell

24
Positive Thinking
  • External stimuli impacts on all the senses
  • These stimuli create paradigms
  • In turn produce automatic responses
  • Responses produce a chemical reaction in the body
  • The body reacts in the outer world

  • Reason
  • Will concentration and focus
  • Memory a mental muscle
  • Imagination
  • Perception

26
Thinking Positively
  • Imagination is the most powerful force in the
    world if you can imagine it, you can make it
    happen!
  • Everything in the world today is the result of
    someones imagination every invention in the
    world began with just a single imaginative
    thought!

  • What is the nature of the subconscious mind?

33
Thinking Positively
  • Answers
  • The imagination
  • The subconscious mind cant tell the difference
    between what is imagined and what is real
  • Who can think of implications for this in sport,
    for example?

34
Thinking Positively
  • The subconscious mind is an emotional mind
  • Thoughts cause feelings
  • Everything just is until we decide to make it
    what it is (one persons pleasure is another
    persons poison)
  • Its all about our paradigm perceptions

35
Thinking Positively
  • PARADIGMS
  • What is their nature?
  • How are we going to change them?
  • How do we convince the subconscious mind that
    what we now think is real?

    circumstances and the environment of your outer
    world

    example)
  • Never change the goal change the plan!
  • Keep experimenting
  • Analyse all your resources so you learn what
    works
  • Do you think the greatest inventors ever got it
    right the first time?

39
Thinking Positively
  • SUCCESS
  • Success comes from good judgement
  • Good judgement comes from experience
  • Experience comes from mistakes
  • Mistakes come from bad judgement

40
Thinking Positively
  • People Look at goals in 3 ways
  • What they know repeat performances and stay in
    the same paradigm
  • What they think they can do
  • In terms of what they want
  • Which of these has emotional content?
  • Which of these stand a better chance of being
    successful?

41
Thinking Positively
  • Goals are about increasing your aspirations
    they are about growth
  • Three stages to creation
  • Fantasy ideas, thoughts, mental images,
    motivation
  • Theory using your conscious faculties setting
    a goal and making a plan
  • Fact successful resolution achieving the goal

42
Thinking Positively
  • Steps to Success
  • Picture a goal
  • Feel what it is like to have achieved the goal
  • Own the goal as if it has already happened
  • Feel the emotional response in your body as you
    own the goal
  • Make a plan
  • Change the plan
  • Achieve the goal

43
Thinking Positively
  • Until you make an image of your goal you cannot
    challenge your paradigm within.
  • Get excited get enthusiastic think positive!
  • Success leaves a trail! All the most successful
    people in the world create goals
  • Some create goals daily
  • What goal will you set to reach each day?

44
Thinking Positively
  • Setting mini-goals
  • First have the prime goal in mind
  • Then work towards it in easy steps
  • This leads us into the planning stage...

45
Thinking Positively
  • Planning
  • Set a goal decide where you want to go
  • Plan a way of getting there
  • Take action
  • Review the plan
  • Take action
  • Repeat 4 and 5 then reach the goal

46
Thinking Positively
  • Before you do anything
  • Understand yourself and what barriers you
    subconsciously put in the way
  • Understand paradigms
  • If you focus on the doubts and fears, you wont
    get there
  • Focus on the goal and doors will open for you
  • Then recognise the doors when they open

47
Thinking Positively
  • Financial success has a lot to do with being in
    the right place at the right time - is quoted
    frequently but there is another factor
  • You have to be AWARE that you are in the right
    place at the right time!

48
Thinking Positively
  • JFK What will it take to take someone to the
    moon, land them there and safely return them to
    Earth?

49
Thinking Positively
  • NASA (Dr Werner von Braun)
  • The will to do it

50
Thinking Positively
  • There is a difference between WISHING for a
    thing and being READY to receive it. No-one is
    ready for anything until they believe they can
    acquire it. The state of mind must be BELIEF,
    not mere hope or wish. Open-mindedness is
    essential for belief. Closed minds do not
    inspire faith, courage or belief.
  • Remember, no more effort is required to aim
    high in life, to demand abundance and prosperity,
    than is required to accept misery and poverty.
    Think Grow Rich - Napoleon Hill

Thinking Positively
  • There is only one corner of the universe you can
    be certain of improving and that is yourself.
  • Aldus Huxley
