Fall Fast, Rise Often

There are no mental illnesses. There is total illiteracy. Therefore, when suddenly urine hits the head or the soul goes into the heels, it makes sense to ask what we are made of and how it works in our body, interacting with the environment and reality.

There are also no mental illnesses because "the soul is obliged to work." And brains. And the body. And when it fits nicely - hello health! Welcome, happiness!

And if I say that the soul, brains and body are obliged to work, then this means - unconditionally and non-stop, to the seventh sweat and ripples in the eyes, read books, watch useful films, attend seminars and trainings, roller-skate and jump rope, chop firewood and dig beds, learn to talk to children in a human way … And to atomize your insecurity and self-esteem, your fears and numbness, and why are you sausage when you have to ask a stranger “What time is it?”.

You can't figure it out on your own - find a specially trained person. Just do not make hasty conclusions - not all psychologists from the start put you on the couch and force you to pronounce monologues on behalf of the big toe of your left foot, and your inability to come up with anything more or less decent suggests that you really … Search! We are legions. And among them there is someone who you need and who needs you. You know, it's a great happiness to find your teacher, mentor - name it what you like. But no less happy is the one who finds his disciple.

In the midst of eliminating illiteracy, you can read and hear that change will begin when:

You will become more confident

⁃ Find your inner child (hey people, what is this ???)

⁃ Get rid of fears

⁃ Change your beliefs

⁃ (oh gods!) Learn to live in reality

⁃ You will love yourself (and how is that ?!)

⁃ Forgive everyone, everyone and yourself

⁃ And so on and so forth…

But you have to live here! And now! As all advanced gestaltists teach. With your bounces. Pathological shyness. The feeling that you are worse than others. The feeling that everything is about to fail. That you can't put two words together. That you will fall again. And you will fail again …

To wait until you finally change completely for great deeds is a great luxury and unforgivable stupidity. Learn and do. Learn and apply. Experiment now.

Fall. The more often the better. Fall and rise. As many times as you need. Don't be in a hurry to scold technology - mastery is achieved through exercises. And so that your bumps do not hurt so much, change your attitude to the very fact of the fall

1. Focus on opportunities, not problems. You may not get the expected result from your actions. Don't berate yourself or obsess over failure. Reconsider your attitude towards failure. It can only mean that:

✓ there is another way to solve the situation

✓ this is not the best idea

✓ you need to know more

✓ you need to work harder

✓ you need someone else's help

✓ it was an experiment.

Find other ideas yourself. Rethinking makes it possible to think constructively, and not drive your thoughts of the same type from hemisphere to hemisphere. If you want to change your life, you need to learn how to do the same thing in different ways.

2. Everything that you do, do with passion, love, pleasure. This approach allows you to think creatively, work productively, be more sociable, and see unexpected opportunities. Even if you are now doing not what you want, but what you need or have to. This happens quite often. Find in your actions what gives you great pleasure. Perhaps this is a shorter road to your dream. Maybe you are acquiring the necessary skills. It is possible that you are helping someone …

3. Negative emotions have a deterrent effect and hinder your progress. Falling often will bring you back to them. You can feel shame and your own worthlessness, you can scold yourself again, uncertainty will again remind you of yourself. Don't give in to them. Keep your soul shining. Let it begin with a ray - only you can turn it into a powerful stream of renewing light. And for this:

4. Collect your achievements, your successes, your victories. As soon as you feel that “everything is lost,” self-esteem will collapse now, you want to run away and hide, remember the situations when you were successful. Remember feelings. People's smiles and support. What were you thinking then? How did you see yourself? Collect your achievements since childhood - then you were real, you were not yet afraid to fall, you still sincerely believed in what your mom and dad were saying about you. This is a powerful exercise, it will quickly lift you up and support you in your endeavors.

5. Be curious. Curiosity helps you see opportunities. Curiosity helps you learn quickly. Curiosity gives energy. Curiosity is the decisive first step in getting things moving that yesterday seemed overwhelming to you.

6. Avoid perfectionism. Very often, the desire to be the best hinders your success. You can reinforce a new skill only by repeating the action many times, making mistakes, correcting them, acquiring new knowledge, discarding what is not suitable. Use every opportunity, even if you feel that you are not ready yet. It is better to fail and then figure out the reasons than to be left with the fantasy "what if it would have worked out."

7. Falling hurts. And here is another trap for a loser - to give up the opportunity to become different, to leave everything as it is. When you choose a different path, each time you notice that the pain is fading away. In the end, it completely disappears, and the world will see a new you - full of strength, energy, life. And you can say with confidence that there are no mental illnesses, but there is total illiteracy, which can only be overcome by the walking and falling.
