7 POWERFUL MIND HACKS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE




For the past two decades, I've been devoting a good amount of time understanding how much people beliefs trap them into faulty thinking about themselves and the world around them. 

In some way, we all anchor in our life our deepest beliefs and what we assume to be the truth. It makes our existence easier, more predictable. Safer. 

But the world is not a predictable place. While facing adversity, we might be more prepared if we challenge some of our deepest dysfunctional or limiting beliefs and exercise our brains by generating alternatives, specially those that do not come natural to us.

If you are comfortable with your settled brain, you do not need to read my posts anymore. Thank you for baring with me until this point. But if you want to be challenged to perceive yourself and the world differently, then come with me on this journey. Because if you do not hack your brain, someone else will!

For the next seven weeks, I will publish each week a detailed description of the mind hacks titled above. Hope you enjoy this ride as much as I did preparing it for you!

1. GRAVITY PROBLEMS. Problems that are not problems but a circumstance of your live

  We all know what will happen if I decide to jump off a cliff. Gravity will take care of the rest. Unfortunately I will not fly. Even though human beings came up with brilliant solutions for flying, we did not grow wings in our bodies. I did a reality check with sky diving. It was not flying but the most spectacular, fastest and safer fall ever! Having a body that does not allow me to fly it is not a problem. But a circumstance of my life. We all know people that find themselves miserable about complaints related with a colleague, the spouse, the boss, being over weight, smoking addiction, choices overload, no choices or chronic diseases. Not to mention things that have happened to them in the past. It feels like there is always a complaint about something. Often times, they have done nothing to change it.  The fact is that we cannot solve a problem we are not willing to have. If it is not in our power to change it - like gravity - or if we are not willing to do anything abou...

7. WHY ME? PLAYING THE VICTIM

  Were you taught as growing up that bad things happen to bad people? If you do something wrong or misbehave, something bad will happen to you. You will be punished. If this was part of your education, you might believe that if something bad happens, you might have done something to deserve it. On the other hand, if you feel like you are well behaved and did nothing wrong, you might believe that you do not deserve whatever bad thing is happening to you. Why me? This is the daily life of a victim. And we have all been there.  Playing the victim rarely gets anyone what they want and ultimately, friends, family or coworkers will be pushed away. The victim will complain about complaining and then complain that they can't stop complaining. The place of a victim is an easy one to get into and a hard one to get out of. The "why me" victim style comes with this feeling that what you are going through is unique and it only happens to you. The truth is that everyone at any given ti...

20. A MENINA DOS TOTÓS

  O que descrevo, aconteceu no Trail Curto do Vimeiro, na manhã de 12 de setembro de 2021. No convívio final e após 19 Km de muita luta, ouço com um misto de orgulho e embaraço outra mulher, militar de carreira, a elogiar a minha destreza nas descidas: "A menina dos totós fez aquelas descidas de tal maneira! Parabéns, admiro-lhe a coragem!".  Senti orgulho porque no topo dos meus 49 anos, ainda me consigo sentir no pódio da bravura, coragem e destreza. Embaraço porque a regar este pódio, encontra-se um rio de medo, incerteza e insegurança. O medo durante a experiência, funcionou como impulsionador através das suas injeções de adrenalina; a incerteza, pela percepção dos riscos reais nos declives mais acentuados; insegurança, por saber que já fui capaz de mais, já caí muitas vezes (não sou assim tão boa) e há sempre alguém que eu conheço capaz de conquistar estes declives com muito mais destreza do que eu.  Isto soa-vos familiar? Minimizarmos quem somos perante a adversidad...
