Today I listed 5 ways on how to trick your brain into doing what you want ...
How to trick your mind is a series of mine where I usually write about specific topics on how to live a better and healthier life. Its so easy to trick your mind if you know how to do it.
We are getting influenced by posters, magazines, advertisements, TV, radio and of course by the web every day. They make the decision on what to eat, what to drink, what to read, what to watch and even what to think sometimes. Now I will give you 5 ways how to trick your brain into doing what YOU want !
Realize that the world doesnt revolve around you
Our brains force us to be self-centered and this can be detrimental. You probably think that you´re never wrong, you are great at everything you do. You think you are just unlucky if bad things happen or that the other lanes at the checkout are moving faster than yours, am I right? But in reality, most of this couldnt be further from the truth. This is one area of your brain that tries to trick you and unfortunately there is no way to trick your mind back. Just be aware of the phenomena and so you wont fall prey to them as often as you do now.
Be Happy
When I first started this series I also wrote about this topic a whole post. Being happy is for me the major key in life. There isnt more success or more goals than pure happiness ! Happiness comes within you so start imagine to shine through the inside out. Smiling helps a lot. Even if you are sad, chilled or whatever, try to smile and the situation will get a lot better than before !
Save money instead of blowing it
Saving money is a lot harder than it should be. We are trained to spend all our money on unnecessary things. For example on many bags and clothes. As soon as we hold cash in our hands we are going to think "On what can I spend such a high amount of money next?" And now I will tell you the problem about it. Your brain gets used to all that money and forgets very fast how life was without the money. If you arent strong enough to stay against this pressure, you could easily send the money to any savings account you would like.
Make friends instead of enemies
I have learned that every emotion you send out into the universe will come straight back to you! Before you judge people try to understand their way of life. People make mistakes. Thats why its not an argument to make enemies instead of friends.
Make your day last longer instead of wondering where it went
No matter how productive you are in a day, it always seems like there arent enough hours before bedtime. Try to change up your daily routine. The more information your brain has, the more time it feels has passed. So in order to have "longer days" present your brain with new informations regularly. Keep learning, meet new people ( Strangers ), You will be surprised about the quick difference...
They say that age is all in your mind. The trick is keeping it from creeping down into your body.
I hope this could help you!
Thanks for reading
Stay focused
Love, Soldier

I could not agree more about the power and fruitfulness of smiling. I find smiling is synonymous with laughter, but equally as important. I have not read any or your earlier works in this series, but I will have to go back in your blog and take a look. I am definitely looking forward to the next one😉

Smiling is contagious! I watched an experiment where a guy would get on the subway, scroll his phone and just smile and laugh. Pretty soon most of the train passengers were smiling as well :)

Completely agree. Even if I start smiling for no reason, I still get happy xD. It's also refreshing to be around people who smile all the time!
Also, I made a post about this if you're interested.

Love this post but can i add... if you can think it, u can achieve it. Its as simple as that. No matter how big your dream or how outrageous your desire is. Ask for it. Put the energy out into the world and the universe will bring you what your heart desires. Laws of attraction. Its all about positives vibes and good energy. Which ties along with being happy as you said. You put negative energy out there, you'll get negative energy back. Its as simple as that. You want a mansion and a yacht? Ask for it, then be grateful for it as if you already own it. Dont worry about the how. The universe will bring it to you. Its the secret of life. All the great philosophers of our time know this secret.

Great advice! I love the one about saving money. I try to look at how many hours I would have to work to be able to afford something. If it costs more than an hours work is it really worth buying? It limits me to only the things that I really care about.

This is so true! People earn money to spend it on things which you dont need. Focus on saving money, it will help you a lot better in the future

I wish other people could see this. When I see my brother spending $10 on a coffee I think to myself, how absurd, you had to work 30 minutes for that coffee which will be gone in less than 5 minutes...was it really worth it? Unfortunately, society tells us that we need these things that really don't matter at all.
