bosanchez - It’s In Your Brain

 

Let me explain to you why writing down your dreams works.

Have you ever had this experience?

You’re in a party.  It’s noisy.  Lots of chatter, laughter, and loud music.  But from the other side of the room, you hear someone whisper your name.

Thank your reticular activating system (or RAS) for this phenomenon.  It’s a filtering mechanism at the base of your brain that sorts through the entire tidal wave of visual, sensory and auditory stimuli you receive.

The RAS is also what allows a mother to sleep through the noise of cars honking outside her home.  The RAS tells her to ignore these irrelevant sounds.  But the second her baby cries, she’s up.  This time, the RAS dictates, “That’s important.  Wake up!”

Let me give you another example.

When my wife was pregnant some years ago, we were strolling in a mall.  She said to me, “Bo, did you notice that there are so many pregnant women here, much more than before?” I just laughed because it wasn’t true.  Since she was pregnant, her RAS focused on all the expecting mothers who were walking around the mall.  When she wasn’t pregnant, she wasn’t noticing them.

It’s the same thing when you write down your dreams. Your RAS zeroes in on the many things that will contribute to the fulfillment of that dream.

 

You’ll See The Ingredients Of Your Dream

Fall Into Place Like A Jigsaw Puzzle Right Before Your Eyes

 

Someone asked me, “When I pray, can’t I just say, ‘Lord, just give me whatever You want to bless me with’?  Why do we have to specify what we want?”

Sure you can pray that way.

But I think there should be times when we pray with more specificity.  When I do, I see the ingredients that I need fall into place like a jigsaw puzzle right before my eyes.  And it’s beautiful.

So write down your dream.  Put down on paper what you want to happen in your life and present it to God.

 

May your dreams come true,

SMART Goals 101: Goal Setting Examples, Templates, and Tips - Brian Tracy

I think you’ll agree with me when I say: We’ve all heard that SMART goals are important . But a lot of people are left with questions about them, for example: What exactly are they? How do we use them correctly? Are they really contributing to your success? Here’s the deal: When it comes to achieving success, one of the most important steps that you can take is setting good goals. It is also important to recognize, though, that not all goals are created equal. In this article, we’ll take a look at a special class of goals called SMART goals and how you can use them to heighten your chances of success. FREE SUCCESS TOOL: Brian Tracy’s 14-Step-Goal-Setting Guide What is a Goal? A goal can be any objective that you set for yourself and push yourself to achieve.

But here’s the kicker: While having goals of all kinds is almost

bosanchez - The Bias of Fathers

One day, I was at a Christmas party. And parents were forcing their small kids to sing, bribing them with lollipops to banana splits to doll houses to Boracay vacations. One father — a friend of mine whose name I won’t divulge as it would be hazardous to my health — brought his little five-year-old daughter to the front. Because he even had a Minus One prepared, we thought, “She must really be a good singer.” So everyone clapped their hands and cheered as the music started. Then the five-year-old began to sing. Or at least made some kind of sharp noise.  But she didn’t get one key right. The cute little girl was absolutely tone deaf. From beginning to end, she sounded so awful, the experience was similar to having an endoscopy without the anesthesia. But the father was right beside me, still taking photos, still smiling from ear to ear, his eyes glued to his little daughter. He looked at me and smiled, “She may not sound right, but can you see how lovely she sways her hips?” Th
