As mentioned before, we humans are more like machines in our mental make-up than not. Your reactions and responses to certain stimuli are usually the same, unless you consciously intervene. In order to transform anything in your life it is essential to begin to notice your reactions and responses to events BEFORE responding.
Noticing your reactions and responses begins the process of distinguishing a machine like response from a transformed human response. Being conscious of your thoughts in any given situation gives you the chance to choose the type of reaction to have.
It takes practice, a lot of practice, to slow your system down long enough to think through your next step. Try it for just the next hour, the next 60 minutes. Become aware of your thoughts as events occur and then choose how to respond.
The game is to always be aware of your thoughts and responses. Even as a skilled practitioner of this technique the occasional instant reaction slips through. After all, you are human.
OK? Trial run begins now for one hour.
