TUESDAY TAKEAWAY You've probably heard this: Doing things to avoid doing other things, in psychobabble, is known as displacement actions. Or as we all call it "PROCRASTINATION" Procrastination is deeply unsatisfying - you can't even properly enjoy it because part of you knows you should be doing something else. When you procrastinate, it feels uncomfortable. Here's how to stop you...rself from displacing: 1. Focus on how you'll feel later if you don't do what you need to do now. 2. Let that discomfort drive you to relieve it by doing what you need to do. Get into the habit of doing that and watch your productivity skyrocket. If you still need a little help, come on in for a procrastination Hypnosis session. To your stellar success, Diane Brach, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist Ventura/South Pasadena 626-622-6214 Hypnautical.com T

TUESDAY TAKEAWAY: How important is it to get outside your comfort zone? "The comfort zone is a behaviour state within which a person operates in an anxiety-nutural condition, using a limited set of behaviors to deliver a steady level of performance, usually without a sense of risk."... Step outside your comfort zone and it will help you be more creative, think big and become successful. It can also be pretty darn hard, difficult and scary! Want a little help? Think about using hypnotic suggestions to maximize your creativity and help prepare for that big leap towards your goals.

TUESDAY TAKEAWAY: Are You Truly Sailing Your Own Ship? Something I don't think is discussed enough when it comes to success is our expectations.... Expectations are like the rudder on a ship. Like a rudder, they're below the waterline, hidden from view. No matter what the weather is doing, or how the sails are set, if the rudder is stuck to one side, you'll go round in circles. Our "life expectations" are formed early in life, which is why it's really important to examine your expectations from time to time and check that they're not sending you round in circles. And for a little help, hypnotherapy can get below the waterline and set that rudder straight so you can make the most of good weather, and stay on track when things turn rough. New Horizons await. Happy Sailing, Diane Brach C.Ht. Clinical Hypnotherapist Ventura, Ca. 626-622-6214 Hypnautical.com [email protected]

TUESDAY TAKEAWAY MOTIVATE YOUR UNCONSCIOUS MIND. Most of us spend a lot of time imagining what we don't want.... Sound familiar? That's what worries are. Going over and over the things that we don't want to happen....that we're scared might happen...that would be world-ending if they did happen. Over and Over. Not nice. The end effect of this is our poor brain spends all it's time full of unpleasant stuff. If your unconscious mind is just getting message after message about stuff you want to avoid, it's going to be one unmotivated mind. Visualizing a positive day can be a little morning meditation to get your mind focused on what you do want, so that it can show you the things you need to get there. And doing this day after day after day will turn the world's most powerful supercomputer into your most powerful friend. To feeding your personal GPS the direction it needs, Diane Brach, Clinical Hypnotherapist Ventura, CA. [email protected] Hypnautical.com 626-622-6214

TUESDAY TAKEAWAY: SELF IMAGE Self image is talked about a lot, but what is it?... I think of self image as the background on which your life is painted. It effects everything, but you don't tend to focus on it specifically. And because of that, it can be easy to forget about. Or, it can be too frightening to look closely at, in case you don't like what you see. A positive self image will help you FEEL good about yourself, so that you start to THINK well of yourself. I'm not talking about thinking that you're perfect.....none of us are....but without a base of a healthy appreciation for our good points, we can't hope to improve those areas that need it. Does your positive self image need a boost? Try it and see how it improves all sorts of areas of your life.
