Benefits of an Attack Mentality

In this pandemic situation, staying positive when everything around you seems wrong is not easy. As humans, we are wired to focus on problems aka problem centric thought (PCT). Thoughts make-the man, but negative thoughts limit our potential and increase stress. How do we overcome?

Skip past the problem and move right toward on the solution with a Relentless Solution Focus mindset (RSF). The way to do this is, Quickly identify a problem and focus right on what needs to be done to improve. The goal always is to have an attack mentally to improve, this RSF would make us mentally tough. The brain immediately recognizes this thought pattern and releases happy chemicals dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrinine as a reward.

Bring out your Attack mentality and always seek out a way to improve, even if its just one small thing.

Social Media and Deep work

In one of the recent interviews, a Doctor mentioned he won’t let his chIldren sulk in social media but rather would be comfortable of them having Johnie Walker or doing drugs here and then. Is social media really becoming that evil? Sure it makes you addictive. With all new algorithms, the social media companies are playing dirty tricks to your mind without you even realizing how much time you are spending on them and going for aimless wandering targets. Am not trying to be anti social here but if you want to be great at ‘deep work’, such as learning, aiming for promotion, running a business, transitioning to next phase of your career or life, you may need to give up social media. There’s power in actively selecting the trade-offs you want to make.
