The Best, You Can Be: Head/ HEART Balance
Most people would agree, when we are happy, and less stressed, we are usually, feeling better, and more ready, to enjoy life! Unfortunately, most of us, fail to use, both, our finest, well – developed. logic and skill – sets, in coordination with strengthening our emotional components, aspects, etc.
How Will You KNOW, What You Need, To Be Happy And Healthy?How will you KNOW, what you really need, to be happier, and healthier? In the vast majority of cases, individuals are either their own, best friends, or worst enemies, when it comes to health and happiness. They say, You are what you think, yet, few of us, take advantage of the basics, of proceeding, in a well – considered, focused manner, and with a true, positive, can – do, attitude.
Will You Take The Time, To FOCUS, On You?It’s often, a somewhat, delicate, fine – line, between caring for others, and taking care of yourself! While caring about others, and doing, the right thing, are necessities of proceeding, with a life, with meaning and purpose, unless/ until, you proceed with a true balance, and avoid neglecting yourself, you might, not be serving, your own, best interests! Will you take the time, and make a true effort, to consistently, FOCUS on you, rather than, neglecting your personal needs, and necessities?
PEACE Of Mind, Creates Better HealthSince, most of us, realize, when we have a larger degree, of, PEACE of mind, we are capable of living a happier, healthier life, wouldn’t it make sense, to strive to proceed, in focused way, striving towards this objective? Have you, or anyone, you know, suffered with some sort of insomnia, or other sort of sleeplessness? When we are tired, nervous, upset, insecure, or otherwise, concerned/ stressed, we often proceed, in a troubled, preoccupied manner, rather than proceeding forward, in a positive, meaningful, productive way!
Overcoming Our FEARS: Important, But ChallengingA famous political leader, during World War II, warned us, The only thing we have to fear, is fear, itself. While that was, certainly true, then, and under those conditions, it is, also, important, to realistically consider, the often – challenging, task, of overcoming our FEARS. More of us, wake up, many mornings, fearing, and/ or, dreading, the coming day, while, others, overcome those fears, and/ or, insecurities, etc, and proceed, in a positive, strategic manner, focused on achieving, whatever might be, in our best interests.
Your HEAD: Friend, Or Foe?Are you, your own, best friend, or worst enemy? Do you control, your thoughts, or let them, overwhelm, and control you? What sticks in our minds, generally, either, makes us, better, stronger, and calmer, or has, the opposite effect!
Using An Affirmation List, To Address Your Personal ChallengesNo two people, are exactly the same, yet, many, in their quest, to feel, they, fit – in, adopt the goals of the group, as their own! Some of these might be relevant, while others may not apply, properly, to what you need, most, to address! While there are many approaches, and possibilities, effectively, using, a well – formulated, affirmation list, is a tried – and – proven approach, which has been used, in a relevant manner, over the years.
Your FEARS: Will You Control Them, Or Let Them, Control You?Groucho Marx is credited with saying, It’s a matter of mind, over matter. If you don’t have a mind, it doesn’t matter! While that line, might work best, when it’s articulated, by an individual, with perfect comedic timing, funny glasses, and eyebrows, if we identify, one reason, it resonates, is, many of us, face times, when, we will, either, control our FEARS, or permit them, to control us!
Health And Productivity: The Head/ Heart BalanceHenry Ford is generally credited with saying, You can think you’re right or wrong, Either way, you’ll be correct. Others are credited with proclaiming, Whatever the mind of man, can perceive and conceive, he can achieve. If all other factors, are considered equal, it’s important, therefore, to realize, and recognize, there is a strong, relevant correlation, between, one’s physical health, and mental health, attitude and well – being!
The Risk/ Reward Approach, To Healthier LivingHave you ever watched, or heard, an advertisement, for a specific drug, or treatment, where it seems, more than half the time, is spent, mentioning the side – effects, potential ramifications/ dangers, etc? While this may, be acceptable, when it comes to treating life – threatening conditions, and issues, I feel, it doesn’t make sense, for other conditions. When you hear, an advertisement, for a treatment for toe fungus, and, the potential risks, seem ominous, have you ever wondered, why, anyone, would take that option?
BALANCE Your Health!When we feel better, physically, emotionally, spiritually, etc, our overall health, and well – being, generally benefits! Since everyone, is different, in certain significant ways, it’s essential to avoid the one – size – fits – all, approach to health, but, rather one must, be willing, to take the time, and make the effort, to do, what’s in your personal, best – interests! It’s important, to seek, a true, BALANCE, in your life, and this means, balancing, factors, such as: work – life, versus personal life; reality, versus idealism; health care options, etc.
Making Your FRAME Of Mind, Your Best Friend!For most people, their FRAME of mind, is either, helpful, and positive, or self – defeating, and against, their own, personal, best interests! Whatever the mind of man, can perceive and conceive, he can achieve. Henry Ford is often credited, with saying, You can think you can, or can’t.
