We are all excellent Movie Stars!!

After years of indulging into psychology and spirituality, I finally have learned one thing – our state and emotion affect our capability and performance.

I sometimes enjoy watching soccer and it is always unpredictable!! A team may lose badly during the first half of the game. The most respectable attitude is that the team can maintain the up beat spirit to have won the second half of the game. Thus, no matter what happen a moment ago, they can drop fear and failure immediately to move forward to achieve their dream and passion.

But then how? How do we always maintain that kind of ‘never say die’ spirit? How do we overcome failure and turn it around into excellence immediately?

This is like how a famous celebrity can make you cry in the movie even though you knew it is not real? How do they fight in the movie that have stirred your emotion for hours? How? How an award-winning star can be so influential that you could associate him as a mafia? Or a romance idol? How to do that? What we can learn from them?

Many of us have forgotten that we could bring up the state that we want at anytime. It can be as easy as bring back a sweet memory when you face a challenge or to behave like someone when it is needed.

Remember the time when we were still playing dolls, princess, or cooking in the kitchen? Or play soldiers in the war for boys, Star Wars, Transformer, Astro Boy…? We were so good at it that we could simulate almost everything from making the sound, the way we walk, the way we talk, the way we behave, …. The more we played, the more creative we were at being in the state of the character. At that time, we could even bring back the positive emotion instantly! We could fell down laughing for no reason!!

We enjoyed that, didn’t we? We did pretty well, didn’t we? What happen to us now? Forgotten on the how to become a movie star? Forgotten on how to laugh over silly things that we did? Hahaha……

In NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), we learn:
‘There is no unresouceful people, there is only unresourceful state’
