Simple Ways to Improve Your Flaws From Childhood

How to recognize and act on time!

Don’t go there! It is dangerous! Stop! Don’t do that!

Be careful! Those guys don’t seem friendly. Don’t even try it.

I wonder If I was the only one that heard that thing all the time in my childhood. When I remember that, I think something was wrong at that moment. It was one of the first questions I asked myself.

Then I started to see people doing things with confidence, talking with everyone, trying new things. In those moments, I started to realize that something was going on out there, something that I was missing, something that maybe I should have knowledge or I must have known.

Back on time, I remember the first car that I had was a Toyota Corona from 1991. It was an amazing car for those times before I used to drive my father’s car a Datsun from 1975, the car that I learned how to drive. When I bought that new car I had a lot of choices and I chose the one that I liked. The first voice that I heard was: Be careful, don’t be so pretentious, do not try to call the attention. Please take a look at this one. It doesn’t look that luxury.

That alarm sounded again in my mind; something was wrong in those times. Why should I buy something that I don’t like rather than something that I like to be safe, or don’t call the people’s attention? That Was the question I asked. Something wasn’t right. I didn’t know how everyone has to feel, or everyone has to be advised by the same thoughts.

Now when I think back about it, I just smile. Please don’t take me wrong, I am not judging parents, and it is not even their fault. They have been raised with that pattern of thoughts from their parents. So it is a heritage that they got without been asked.

This shows me how to recognize that mental pattern and to cope with it every day of my life. What I learned about it was always helpful and I try to apply every day.

If you can find and recognize these patterns of thoughts and get rid of them, you will do better in any circumstances in your daily life.

People Can Advise You But You Are The Only One Who Knows What Is Better For You

It is good to have a friend or family; it is amazing to be around people who want the best for us. Consider always that everyone has a different perception of all the things. Their opinions are connected with their thoughts, which are connected with their own experience. And the experience of others is not the same as yours. As a result, you have a totally different thought, and that is amazing. That makes us unique. However, be aware, you can’t make decisions according someone else beliefs rather than yours.

“Your life is a result of the choices you have made. If you don’t like your life, start making better choices.” — Zig Ziglar

Don’t Kill Creativity

When I used to hear, please don’t talk with those guys, maybe they are not good ones, you will not learn anything from them. I stopped myself from doing things that I wanted to try. As a result, my creativity was blocked. Sometimes I hear when people say that they are creative and creativity is born only for a particular kind of people, I disagree. Everyone deep inside is a creative person. Just creative people feed their creativity every day, doing things differently. We also can do something to wake up the original person that we have sleeping deep inside of us.

“The idea flow from the human spirit is absolutely unlimited. All you have to do is tap into that well. I don’t like to use the word efficiency. It’s creativity. It’s a belief that every person counts” — Jack Welch

It’s not necessarily trying to work hard; the only way to wake up the creativity that we have inside. There are some simple ways to start increasing your creativity every day.

Try different things in your daily life. If you have to work, take different ways. If you go to the park, go to a different one. The point is clear: you can do the same thing but in different ways and find out something new which will pop up in your head.
Meet different people. That’s still hard for me. To be honest, I’m not a person who likes talking too much. However, it’s impossible to be creative if you don’t listen to people with different thoughts or points of view. You will need those different thoughts to mix it up with yours and create something new.
Be open to learning a new skill. I felt this, time ago I used to work as a chef and for me there was nothing else but only service, cooking and restaurants. When I used to hear people talking about different models of business, I just did not want to listen. I closed the door, it was fear inside, and my ego tried to protect me. All my world was around cooking, creating new dishes, new menu, new drinks, that’s all.

Having Money Is Not Bad At All

People who have money are bad. They got the money doing bad things. How are they making money? Something is fishy. If you heard that before, we were in the same boat. To get something in our life is vital to know what your values are. Do not hesitate if someone says the money is not necessary; I disagree, of course, it is important. The most important fact of the money is — The money gives you the freedom to choose to do whatever your passion is — So if the money a is part of the values you have to be clear on it. I do not say that money is bad, bad is the people who use the money to do bad things. Not the money for its own sake.

“It’s good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it’s good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven’t lost the things that money can’t buy.” — George Lorimer

So, next time, when you recognize those patterns of thoughts in your mind, avoid them. Remember, you are never the same as yesterday, and tomorrow you are not going to be the same as today. We keep changing day by day. It’s always a good time to recognize our flaws and get better.
