Thoughts and Feelings Form Our Reality

Thoughts and Feelings Form Our Reality
By Gregory Vanden Berge
It's hard to imagine that your thoughts can create your reality, what you see and how you feel on a daily basis. Let me give you an example of what I'm talking about. Everyone that will reads this article has had an experience of someone become upset with them, at least once during your lifetime. Everyone will react to these situations in different ways.

The most common reaction to this situation will be fear-based. You will get upset with them or with yourself. This could lead to frustration and uncomfortable feelings, the next time you interact with them. Your thoughts have created your reality. They become upset with you, you become frustrated and this feeling lasts until your thoughts change.

Let's say that someone got mad at you because you wouldn't loan them $25. They needed to put gas in their car in order for them to make it to work the rest of the week. They were going to get paid on Friday but it was only Wednesday and they were out of money. You tell them no, because they can't manage their money correctly. You don't have a problem managing your money but every time they're short of money, they treat you like their personal credit line, and you're tired of it.

You get into a shouting match and soon both of you are upset and frustrated. Each one of your thoughts are different. One you just wants $25 to solve a temporary problem (you need gas to get to work) the other person is tired of loaning you money on a regular basis and is frustrated with your continuing requests for money, even though they have repeatedly told you, that you need to do a better job managing your money.

Each one of your realities is different. Each one of you has a perception of the other and these have formed over the years by our thoughts. If you focus on the illusion that someone can't manage their money properly, this will become a reality eventually. Every time you see this person buy a soda, go out to eat or buy something frivolous, you will become upset and frustrated. The closer these people are to you, the more frustrated you can become.

If we could change our thinking, we can change our reality and eventually this would lead to better feelings about life and other people. Change your thoughts about things and soon the things around you will change.

3 Easy Steps on How to Get Promoted
By Mike Flannigan
Have you been stuck in the same dead end job for a long time? Are you ready to earn that promotion, make more money, and get more respect? For those of you looking for a magic promotion train over night though, this is not it! It does not exist!

Employers promote people who have earned it, are right for the job, and will be an asset to the company! If you want to really know how to get promoted, here is where you will learn three of the first steps to get noticed and be on your way to a new and exciting career!

Excel In Your Position!

If you can't do your job better then anyone else, why would your boss want to give you more money to be mediocre somewhere else? It's not going to happen! You need to excel at your position and stand out as the best. If this means being the first one to work and last one to leave, taking on extra work and getting it done well, or helping other people to show you know what your doing. This is the first step on how to get promoted.

Learn More Tasks

Learning how to get promoted is a good indicator that you want that promotion. So now I know you want it but how does your boss know? You have to show him that you are willing to work hard and LEARN what needs to be done! Asking to help with something you don't fully understand will show that you want to understand it and that ultimately you want to learn and take on more responsibilities for getting promoted.

You can't just do this once though and think your getting promoted! Keep at it and learn everything you can! If you already know what your doing in a higher position, why would they promote anyone over you? They wouldn't! Hence, you get the job!

Never Say No!

Saying no puts up a barrier! It is a sign of closed body language that puts a small rift between two people. Now there's a negative feeling in the air which cancels out the positive feelings your boss might have had before. This is not going to help you with getting promoted. So if your boss asks you to do something, even taking out the garbage, say YES! Not only that but enjoy doing it! If you are grumpy at work its just as bad as saying no.

More Steps

These are only the beginning steps to learning how to get promoted. There is much more you can do to increase your chances of having your boss notice you.

Finding and Keeping a Job - Grocery Store Style
By Heather Jassy
The summer after freshman year of college, I worked for three excruciatingly long months as a checkout person at a grocery store. As a counselor and a coach, I remind my clients of these lessons on a daily basis, but I'm going to translate them to you here, grocery-store style.

Here's the first one: don't procrastinate too long or you end up having to take what's left over. In my case, the procrastination involved a long-distance boyfriend and far too many trips to Athens, Georgia, waiting too long to look for a summer job, and having to work at Delmonico's in Birmingham (may it RIP). My friends were heading to great internships and working in music stores and I was getting verbally abused and wearing a uniform every day. Enough said. Lesson: don't wait until you're desperate to start looking. You'll limit your choices.

Here's an important one: don't cater to bizarre demands. Ever. You'll get trapped repeating them over the long haul. Example: On my second day of work, a co-worker pointed at a sour-looking customer in a red fedora, looked at me grimly, and said, "You better hope that HE is never in your line!" When I pressed her on the topic, she told me that he was exceedingly picky about how his groceries got handled. As in, he complained to the manager if he perceived that you were "too rough" with his stuff. Three days later, he was in my line. I tried to be as careful as I could. He glared at me menacingly as I took 15 minutes to scan his groceries, hands trembling, placing the Metamucil in the bag as if it were a newborn. With two hands, I placed the orange in it's own bag so that it wouldn't be bruised. By the time I finished, he was the only person left in line, and he was quivering. He snatched the bags from my hands and walked over the manager, and started speaking, gesturing wildly and pointing at me repeatedly. I was terrified. After he left, the manager walked over to me, a wide smile on his face. He said, 'he told me, "that red-haired girl is the only person in this store who KNOWS how to handle groceries, and I won't go to anyone else again, ever!"" And he didn't. For the rest of the summer, he lined up every two days to watch me like a hawk and rattle my nerves. Lesson: don't do stuff you feel uncomfortable with just to make people happy in the short run. You're just setting up bad habits that you will have to undo later.

Here's a good one: be nice to people, for a couple of reasons. First and primarily, everyone you meet is a person too, and it's crappy to treat people badly, from a karmic perspective. People in service jobs see the worst aspects of humanity on a daily basis, and you have to have worked in retail to truly appreciate this. The nice people stand out in a sea of impatience and intolerance. So get off your high horse, if you are on one, and be nice.

And here's why you should be nice to people, part 2:when you are kind to people, not in an Eddie Haskell sort of way, but in a genuine way, people want to do nice things for you. They want to help you. One of the nicest people I remember from that summer was Carole Griffin, who I only knew as one of the few customers who looked me in the eye, remembered my name, and was patient and kind. Years later, I met her again, remembered her, and when I learned she owned a local business (Continental Bakery/Chez Lulu), I spent my money there, because I remembered her as someone who has goodness flowing out of her. How this translates to a job search: be really nice to everyone you encounter during your search; you never know who you will meet and how it may help you later.

Conversely, don't treat people like crap. This is a different rule from "be nice." Being nice is taking the time to really see people. It's active. But treating people like crap is a whole other beast, and it's bad. If you treat people badly, they will remember, and you will get yours later. I've worked in enough coffee shops and restaurants to know that the abusive customers get served sneezers (if you don't know what that is, trust me, you don't want one). In the rest of the world, here's how it translates: don't miss appointments, badmouth people, be disrespectful to assistants or anyone you consider "beneath" you, be disrespectful of people's time, or take stuff for free without saying "thank you." It's rude, and it WILL bite you in the butt, because people do remember.

These lessons don't just apply in Delmonico's: they apply in the rest of the world too. Mind your P's and Q's, and remember, there is opportunity everywhere you go.
