The Secret To Happiness - 90 DAY CHALLENGE

Have you heard of the 90 day challenge? It's a secret technique to happiness.





What do you need to start? 

It's very simple , you just need
  • 1 post it /sticky note pad
  •  1 pen
  •  1 minute per day


What do I have to do?

All you need to do is to write down daily, your heart's desire (e.g Relationships jobs, business,health, happiness, etc) on the post it note

  • Write by hand
  • Write as if the thing you wish exists already in the present
  • Not I wish or I could have but I have
  • Not negative , state in positive
  • For example: 
    • I have a great relationship with my wife
    • I have more than enough to give to others
    • I am blessed
    • My finances are doing well
    • I have perfect health
    •  I have a great relationship with my children
  • On the bottom right corner of the post it note, write a number.
    •  Start with number 1 then next day number 2 then next day number 3 until you reach 90
    • However  if  skip one day go back to 1. so the 90 day challenge might take you 1/2 a year.

Stop Anxiety/Panic Attack - Use 54321 Grounding Technique

If you are suffering stress, panic attacks, unwanted emotions and thoughts, then the  54321 Grounding Technique might help.




The ancients used to say ' the mind is a kite and the breath is a string'  when your mind is running away, in a state of panic you forget that you can control it with your breath. Just breath in slowly for a few seconds, hold for a few seconds and breathe out for a few seconds. This put the brakes on  your racing mind. Then  go through the 5,4,3,2,1 technique -see below.

When you are doing this make sure you give your full attention to this. Again it will act as a  brake. Grounding is just bringing to focus on  the now. Your brain can only focus on one thing at a time so if you are fully focused on the now you cannot be in a state of panic about a future or past event.


5. SEE FIVE things around you.. This could be your computer (in your office), a window (at home), a lampost (in the street), a seat (in the tube) or a flower (in the park). Doesn't matter what it is, just find and look at five different things.

4.TOUCH FOUR  around you. This could be the carpet or the clothes you are wearing or a pen you have or a book or wall near you. Ideally touch them and feel the sensation against your skin.

3 HEAR THREE things around you. It could be a dog barking or the sound of the air conditioner or someone talking. Just listen and notice three separate things.

2 SMELL TWO things around you. This could be bread or the smell of perfume or  the smell of your skin or anything around you.

1 TASTE ONE thing. What can you taste on your tongue, or something in your mouth or the taste of something you had to eat recently.


So practice this technique and the next time you feel anxious try it and see how it helps.

Please leave a comment on your experiences!

Bob Newhart-Stop It

Love  this video - Who needs a psychologist when you have Bob Newhart! This is very funny but has a serious point. It's an example of a pattern interrupt.
