This week in Japanese class I had to do comprehension practice on an article about Mental Training. Apparently it's a new phenomena, amongst businessmen, of self-actualization. Basically you picture your successful future self then that future self turns and faces your present self. At which point, as future successful you, you pinpoint all the things that are lacking in your present life and all the things you need to do to become this future successful you. It's interesting and it's supposed to, if practised often enough, help you be the best you you can be.
This of course had me thinking about myself and my own ideas of what success means to me. Who am I meant to be? Who am I going to be? What does it mean to be successful? The answers are out there somewhere but I suppose I have many more rivers to cross before I'll find them all.
Just something I thought I should share.

So you think it really works or wah?
ReplyDeleteWell as a concept I think it should... I mean if you continue to "keep you eyes on the prize" then it stands to reason that with hard work and perseverance you should achieve it. However, considering I have yet to manifest my future successful self... I can't really tell...
