Do you feel so tired that you just want to give up on life? Absolutely nothing is exciting and it’s the complete worst. Well once you develop training and transform your mentality to always want to do more, you’ll become a super robot that won’t stop until you get enough. This post is all about the activities you need to try in order to reprogram your mind.
We’ve all been in a rut. I was in a rut for years. I blamed the world for my lack of opportunities. How dare you earth… not give me everything I want.
Well, eventually I got tired of hitting my head against a wall and decided to give up by giving in. I opened myself up to everything around me and now I try to hide from opportunities because I’m having a hard time keeping up.
This post will walk you through the griefing and evolutionary activities you need to adopt in order to become so obsessed with building your empire that nearly every moment of your day is planned. Trust me you’ll love it.
This post is all about develop training and how to get the mindset to always want to do more.
Develop Training
1) Fail
Here’s a huge secret. Once you fail. You don’t die. The world doesn’t crumble and somehow you still exist. It’s such a miracle.
We avoid failing like the plague, but it’s not bad. It’s not bad at all. When you fail you gain this amazing sense of humor. You may even try to fail on purpose just because you’re curious and realize that there are many ways to do things.
I was pursuing acting for years. I’ve failed at hundreds of auditions. Guess what… I am the best interviewee you will ever meet. I have no problem selling myself knowing that I might get rejected. If anything my mentality is more like, “I dare you to reject me”. And then if you do I think, “Ok let’s do it again”.
Failing gets you out of the habit of needing people’s approvals. It is so incredibly freeing. If you want to develop training you got to let yourself fail, like a million times.
2) Share with others what you’re naturally good at
We’re all good at something. Please don’t be hard on yourself. It’s true. We all have that one thing that we’re a complete natural at.
Just as important as it is to fail, we also need to give ourselves the opportunity to flourish. Get some of that sexy confidence we all need to survive in this world.
Also please note that most of the time we don’t like what we’re good at. Sometimes we avoid doing it. We avoid it like the plague. Stop avoiding plagues. They’re necessary to our evolution.
It’s important to work through what we’re good at not only to build confidence but because you can’t be selfish. People need your help. And eventually helping them will be worth it. Also, you might grow to like what you’re good at.
3) Videos in your free time
Trashy tv is so awesome to watch. You don’t need to think and you can numb your mind with meaningless content.
But you shouldn’t do it. You shouldn’t partake in this ritual. It only steals away your hours and offers you nothing in return. Think about how much tv or videos you watch online. Those are opportunities to better understand or learn about something. And it can be hard to always be focusing on something but what you watch impacts you.
People underestimate how much the content they absorb impacts them. You’re literally feeding yourself with ideas that contribute to your habits, skills, and level of happiness. For example, do you think someone who watches murder mysteries 24/7 isn’t a bit more cautious and possibly nervous than the average Joe?
If you watch things that both educate and entertain you then you’ll be bettering and enjoying yourself.
4) Talk about it
There’s a lot of encouragement for people to be silent as they work through things. I think there’s a study that states once people talk about something they’re planning to do then they’re less likely to do it because they feel like they already achieved it.
Well, I disagree with that sentiment. Ben Affleck had Matt Damon and most artists or inventors or great thinkers do not work in silos.
Why shouldn’t we talk about what we’re dedicating our lives to? Do we want to have any impact on others? Could we use support each other as we go through something new? Shouldn’t we be proud of what we care about?
Having an open dialogue with your friends about what’s on your mind allows you to better explore your own thought processes as you share information. It allows you to realize how many details are needed in order to flush out an idea or how you’re feeling.
If you’re not in a place where you feel like taking on something new, then talk about it with people who are working on something and see what inspires them.
5) Pick brains
I’ve been guilty in this regard. Every now and then you come across someone who is absolutely brilliant. You’d love to analyze their brain and know everything they know. But you’re also extremely tired and could care less about what they had to say.
Don’t be that person. Care about this brilliant mind and see if some of it rubs off. Ask questions and try to make sense of what they have to say. Allow yourself to go down the rabbit hole. Learn a little.
It’ll be painful at first but eventually, you’ll be walking around knowing all of these awesome facts that come quite handy during dinner parties. Also, you’ll eventually marvel at your own level of intellect and think, “Wow I am some specimen. Really, absolutely ridiculously brilliant”.
6) Capture your Growth
So up to this moment you’ve failed, you’ve excelled, you’re talking about it, asked questions, and watched super awesome things. Now track it, baby.
Get some sort of diary or journal and tell that book everything you think about in this world. It doesn’t matter how good you’re friends are, no one will be able to give you all the attention you need when you’re reflecting on your life. You will discover so much about yourself through these passages.
Also, it is amazing to read your old diaries and think OMG I’m still not over that. Let me do something about it.
7) Take a Class
Classes are way more entertaining to me than socializing. When you’re in a class, a knowledgeable human being is guiding you through a task or conversation while you’re trying or learning something new.
You get entertainment, education, and an activity all in one. The hardest part with classes is usually just showing up but once you do, you just have to go with the flow. Obviously, the flow slowly intensifies with time but so do your muscles.
Challenge yourself periodically with a class. It’s training you to become accustomed to wanting to improve yourself.
8) Read/Watch Bios
There are a lot of amazing people who have walked through this world. They all have some sort of biography sharing how they were able to “make it” and get through their lives.
There really are no secrets to succeeding. The problem is we become so fixated on results that we forget a process is what gets you there in the first place. Exposing yourself to other people’s stories acts as a positive reminder. You remember life is very hard for everyone. And that some people don’t care how hard things are going to be, they still want to do something about it.
Be that person that wants to do something about it. I mean you’re existing and you get to pick if your existence should mean anything. Like honestly you decide that, no one else.
9) Reward Yourself
We all need an incentive. We all need some sort of reason for working so hard. Sometimes we need a reward just for existing during difficult times in our lives. So reward yourself with something great. Something you’ve always wanted and something that means something special to you and your life.
Only you know what that treasure should look like and it doesn’t have to be something huge or out of this world. Sometimes giving yourself a silent morning to daydream may be all that you need.
10) Dream up what’s next for you
There are two extreme ways you could live your life. One is thinking that you’ll never have anything and you have to work like an animal till your dying day. Another is that you can have everything and there’s no need to try because it will magically come to you.
The third way is the balanced way. You can have everything you want but you have to work like an animal. It’s not delusional and it’s not depressing. It’s the perfect in-between.
Find this balance for yourself by creating a vision board and giving yourself the opportunity to think about what you want in life.
11) Where do you need to train?
Now it’s time to actually execute what this whole post was about. It’s time to select what you’d like to receive training in – in order to develop yourself.
Where and how can you start? This literally is the hardest part, because it’s the first official step you’re taking with some clear direction and level of enthusiasm. I hope. And unlike a class. You’re looking to train for the long haul. Until you get to your desired life.
This post was all about develop training and how to brainwash yourself into liking work.
