WELCOME ALL FLORIDA ROTARY, LIONS, OPTIMISTS,
KIWANIS SERVICE CLUB-MEMBERS!
We want to extend a special warm welcome to the hundreds of Florida
service club members who receive this Newsletter! They give so much back
to our citizens and communities! Also it is the individuals from these and
other service club groups across this country that make up the majority of
self-employed professionals that are the backbone of our economy!
Therefore we try to give as many no-fee presentations to these groups as
possible, to provide them with the latest research findings about the
amazing capacity of the human brain! When you work for yourself, there's
no one around to keep you going but yourself, and if you're not motivated
from within, if you can't maintain the highest levels of motivation at all
times, it just ain't gonna happen! We salute all of you that have the
self-motivation to MAKE IT HAPPEN!
SELF-MOTIVATION NEWS!
CHANGE YOUR EVOLUTION!
Last Newsletter we talked to you about the brain's plasticity, and the new
neuron pattern connections that you are constantly forming based on your own
self-talk! If you are consistently thinking or saying negative things, it
is very easy for your new thoughts and neuron impulses to travel down the
same old negative electrical and chemical pathways each time (a habit).
It's physiologically easier for these negative-thought neurons to fire and
take the negative road, and therefore it's much more likely that you are
going to get the same negative results!!
So, how many of you took the self-talk inventory (Science for Success
Technique #1) that we suggested in the Newsletter? Did you find
what the scientists have told us? Were about 70-80% of your thoughts and
self-talk is negative? Did you do better? Or were your findings worse? It is
amazing, but scientists say we spend about 75% of our neuron pattern
firings (thoughts and self-talk) in the negative mud-puddle. Only about
25% are positive!
But don't let this get you down! We all were born this way! It is
biologically normal for us to be that way! As a matter of fact it is Your
evolutionary heritage! Thousands of years ago, when millions of wild
animals populated the Earth, it was absolutely necessary for humans to
exaggerate and overemphasize the negative! They had to prepare for the
worst, or they would have been killed and eaten! It was an evolutionary
and biological necessity for survival, to be negative!
Today however, man's technological advances have far exceeded our
evolutionary advances. We no longer are threatened to be killed and eaten!
(At least not every minute of every day! :-)
So literally your brain's development has not kept pace with technological development! Therefore it is up to you to CHANGE YOUR EVOLUTION! You must learn to change your self-talk from the negative to the positive! You must stop every negative neuron pattern right in its tracks! (Science for Success Technique #2) You must let those negative highways get overgrown, so your thoughts can't fight their way down that negative trail! (See last Newsletter)
YOU must clear the paths for positive thoughts and neuron
patterns to fire! (A new habit!) At the very least, just think how much
more you could achieve if you could get this to 50-50! But this is not
going to be easy! We've been negative for thousands of years! So how long
will it take you? How long are you going to pay attention to every thought
you have, and if it's negative, cut it off cold by slapping your knee or
wrist, or your face if the other doesn't work! How long will you need to
force yourself, until it becomes an automatic habit(S4S Technique #2), to
say positive statements of self-talk and have only positive thoughts?
Several years ago NASA conducted an experiment that some of you here in
Florida may have heard or read about. They were preparing to send
astronauts into space and they wanted to find out the long-term effects of
disorientation upon the human brain, mind and body.
NASA placed on several subjects, goggles or glasses that had convex lenses which turned everything that they saw upside-down! They had to wear these goggles for several weeks and attempt to function "normally" under those conditions! Eating, reading, working, everything! Upside-down! NASA was looking to see if it would cause nausea, high blood-pressure, whatever!
But after about
3-4 weeks something startling and amazing happened! One by one the
subjects, while still wearing the upside-down glasses, started to see
things right-side up! Their brains were rewiring, and adjusting to the
view! Their brain was rewiring and turning a lie (upside-down) into the
truth (right-side up)!!
So how long do you need to force yourself to make positive self-talk
statements until your brain rewires and it becomes a habit? Why 3-4 weeks
of course!
But be careful! We have found that not just any positive talk will work.
You have to follow a very strict regimen (Science for Success Technique #
3), and it's very important how you phrase your talk!
When I was in San Diego (see below), we learned from the research of Dr. Larry Cahill, that the brain sees in pictures and patterns of images. (More on this next Newsletter!) So you can't just say anything positive!
If you want your child to get through a meal without spilling the milk, you just tell them, "Don't spill the milk" Right? Wrong! In fact, by saying it in exactly that way, you have just created a 5 out of 6 chance that your child will positively spill the milk! Stay tuned! I'll explain this SCIENTIFICALLY in the next Newsletter
BRAIN LEARNING EXPOSITION!
Last week we were very fortunate to attend the Brain
Learning Expo out in San Diego. The weather was great and the Expo was
phenomenal! It was a chance for me to sit in the same room and listen to
the brain research findings of some of the most powerful and well-known
brain scientists and authors in the world. Some of the presenters were
people who have written books that I have read and include in our
bibliography on brain science info [It's now ready!!(see elsewhere in this
newsletter on how to get your copy FREE!)] For example, Dr Robert
Sylwester, "A Celebration of Neurons!" Dr John Mazziotta, "Revolutionary
New Eyes on the Brain"; "Imaging and Increased Brain Capacity", Dr Kenneth
Wesson, "The Most Important Discoveries in Brain Research", and Dr Larry
Cahill, "Human Memory, Emotions, and the Amygdala"
We will be sharing with you in the next several newsletters, the
revolutionary, exciting research discoveries we have learned all about at
this conference and how that research information can help you reach your
levels of highest achievement by maintaining permanent self-motivation!
For example, one of the best sessions was with Dr. Cahill, whose research clearly proves a theory that I have proposed for some time! That is, your brain forms more neuron connections and learns BETTER and more PERMANENTLY when you are in an amygdala induced, proper, emotional state. If you can learn to trigger this state AT WILL your learning and success while in that state can be greater and more PERMANENT!(Science for Success Technique #5) Stay Tuned!
More on this next time! We're out of space!!

BOOK REVIEWS!
Each Newsletter we will review a few of the books and/or research articles and
studies that we have read. All of these books will have been published in
just the last few years, since about 95% of what science now knows about
the brain has been discovered in just the last 4-5 years! We will rate
these books on a scale of 0-10 with ten meaning DON'T MISS IT! and 0
meaning DON'T TOUCH IT! All opinions will relate only to the book's quality
and functionality as it relates to the FOCUS and MISSION STATEMENT of
Science for Success Seminars (see our website)
PERPETUAL
MOTIVATION-David Durand
This is another of those books that when you see the title you get all
excited! Our goal of course is to bring you all we can about the science
of PERMANENT self-motivation! And when you see a book with "perpetual
motivation" in the title, you can't help but start to salivate.
Unfortunately, when you taste the meal, you come away from the table still
hungry and with a bad taste in your mouth! The book did not deliver. The
book is filled with ho-hum weathered cliches, sprinkled with a few
intermittent bright rays of sunshine, such as, "Be a person not of
success, but of value!" The best of all though is the following, "If we
use a mirror for a windshield, sooner or later we are going to crash!"
hmmmmmmm. Rating: 4.4
INSIDE THE BRAIN:
REVOLUTIONARY DISCOVERIES! - Robert Kotulak
If you are serious about changing your life, believing in the huge
capacity for success that your brain possesses, and reaching PERMANENT
levels of achievement that you never before thought possible, YOU MUST
READ THIS BOOK! OVER AND OVER AGAIN!! I need say no more! RATING: 10
