 Right now, ask yourself some empowering questions. What are you truly happy about in your life right now? What's really great in your life today? What are you truly grateful for? Take a moment to think about the answers and notice how good it feels to know that you have legitimate reasons for you to feel great now. Questions change what we delete. Human beings are marvellous "deletion creatures". You and I have so many millions of things going on around us that we focus on right now, from the blood flowing through our ears to the wind that may be brushing against our arms. However, we can consciously focus on only a small  number of things simultaneously. So the brain spends a good deal of its time trying to  prioritize what  to pay attention to and more importantly, what not to pay attention to, or what to "delete". If you're feeling really sad, there is only one reason, it's because you're deleting all the reasons you could be feeling...

There's a big difference between an affirmation and a question. When you say to  yourself, "I'm happy, I'm happy, I'm happy,"  this might cause you to feel happy if you produce enough emotional intensity, change your physiology and therefore your state. But in reality, you can make affirmations all day long and not really change how you feel.  What will really change the way you feel is asking, "What am I happy about now? What could I be happy about if I wanted  to be? How would that make me feel?" If you  keep asking questions like this,  you'll come up with real references that will make you begin to focus on reasons that do in fact exist for you to feel happy. You'll feel certain that you're happy. Instead of just "pumping you up," questions provide you with actual reasons to feel the emotion. You and I can change how we feel in an instant, just by changing our focus.  Most of us don't realize the power of memory...

Questions accomplish three specific things:   Questions immediately change what we're focusing on and  therefore how we feel. If you keep asking questions like "How  come I'm so depressed?" or "Why doesn't anybody like me?" you  will focus on, look for, and find references to back up the idea that  there is a reason for you to feel depressed and unloved. As a result,  you'll stay in those unresourceful states. If instead you ask, "How  can I change my state so that I am feeling happy and am being  more lovable?, you'll focus on solutions. Even if your brain  initially  responds, "There's nothing I can do," but like Stanislavsky  Lech  you persist with a sense of certainty and expectation in spite  of it all, then eventually you will get the answers you need and  deserve. You will come up with  authentic reasons for feeling  better, and as you focus on the...

The answer came to him through an unlikely source: the sickening smell of decaying human flesh. There,only a few feet from his work, he saw a pile of bodies that had been shoveled into the back of a truck -men, women, and children, who had been gassed. The gold fillings had been pulled from their teeth; everything  that they owned -any jewelry-even their clothing, had been taken.  Instead of asking, "How could the Nazi s  be so despicable, so destructive? How could God make something so evil?Why has God done this to me?," Stanislavsky Lech asked a different question. He asked, "How can I use this to escape?" And instantly he got his answer. As the end of the day neared and the work party headed back into the barracks, Lech ducked behind the truck. In a heartbeat, he ripped off his clothes and dove naked into the pile of bodies while no one was looking. He pretended that he was dead, remaining totally still even though later he was almost crushed as mor...

They needed no reason. They came simply because he was of  Jewish descent. The Nazis stormed into his home, arresting him and his entire family. Soon they were herded like cattle, packed into a train, and then sent to a death camp n Krakow. His most disturbing nightmares could never have prepared him for seeing his family shot before his very eyes. How could he live through the horror of seeing his child's clothing on another because his son was now dead as the result of a "shower"? Somehow he continued. One day he looked at the nightmare around him and confronted an inescapable truth: if he stayed there even one more day, he would surely die. He made a decision that he must escape and that escape must happen immediately! He knew not how, he simply knew he must. For weeks he'd asked the other prisoners, "How can we escape this horrible place?" The answers he received seemed always to be the same. "Don't be a fool," they said, "the...

When I made a list for myself, I realized that playing music was one of the most powerful ways I could change my state quickly. Reading was another way to feel good because it changed my focus, and I love to learn - especially reading something instructional and informational, something I can immediately apply to my life. Changing my body movements is something I can do to instantly break out of a limiting state and into a resourceful  one: exercising on  my StairMaster with the music cranking full tilt, jumping up and down on my rebounder unit, running five miles uphill, swimming laps. Here are some others: dancing, singlng along with my favourite CD's watching a comedy film, going to a concert, listening to informational audio tapes. Taking a jacuzzi a warm bath. Making love to my  spouse. Having a family dinner where we all sit down at the table and chat about what's important to us. Hugging and kissing my children, hugging and kissing my spouse.  Creating a n...

On a business trip to Toronto, I felt physically stressed because of intense back pain. As the plane descended, I began to think about what I needed to do when I got to my hotel. It would already be 10.30 P.M., and I had to be up early the next morning to go to a conference.  I could eat something - after all I'd had nothing all day -but it was awfully late. I could do my paperwork and watch the news. In that moment I realized all of these actions were merely strategies for getting out of pain and into some level of pleasure. Yet none of them were all that compelling. I needed to expand  my list of of ways to experience pleasure, regardless of the time or place. So do you know how to make yourself feel good? This sounds like a stupid question, doesn't it? But really, do you have a set of specific and empowering ways to make yourself feel good at a moment's notice?Can you accomplish this without the use of food, alcohol, drugs, cigarettes or other addictive sources? I...
