ABI Mindset Mastery: The Power of Successful Routines
Routines are our usual ways of thinking, self-talk, and physical movements. If we consistently experience certain emotions, it may the result of our internal routines.
"Our lives are often directed by our personal routines."
Main Points
Our daily routines can end up controlling our lives, sometimes without our awareness.
Identifying a negative routine allows us to interrupt it, eliminate it, and then establish a more positive routine in its place.
Our emotions stem from specific actions we take. Through deliberate actions, we generate these emotions.
Procrastination is essentially a negative routine. We need to condition ourselves to see not acting or delaying as far more painful than just completing the task immediately.
Reflect on: Which positive and negative daily routines are influencing your life? What positive routines could you introduce to enhance your life?
Anchoring Success with Routines
Anchoring involves creating a link between a specific trigger and an emotional state. When we're deeply emotional, anything consistently present during those peak moments becomes associated with that emotion.
"Mastering anchoring allows us to consciously manage our emotions and respond appropriately in various situations."
Main Points
Anchors are those neural links that associate certain experiences or sensations with specific contexts.
We are always creating anchors. Our brains continually form associations, linking things together and finding meaning, sometimes without our direct awareness.
Key elements of effective anchoring include: a. Intensity: Fully immerse in the emotional state. b. Timing: Apply the anchor at the peak of the emotional state. c. Uniqueness: Employ a distinctive trigger. d. Consistency: Replicate the trigger in the same way each time.
To change an undesirable pattern, we apply a technique that rapidly alters our physical response, disrupting the old pattern until it no longer happens by reflex.
