BONUS CONTENT Adversy and Already Always Listening

Hello all

     I know that I am working on a series called the winning mindset but due to some adversity I have decided to take a break and work on some bonus content.

     Adversity doesn't take a vacation when you're having a good time.  It's house guest and love interest reactivity go hand in hand in the grab for your power in life.  And what tool do they use the most sometimes? The already always listening.

     I learned this content while attending the landmark forum in Dallas Texas in June 2014. Already always is listening and conversing with both internal and external dialogue that depends on your background past and upbringing.

     Believe it or not I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE.  From trauma regarding a relationship with my father in childhood who still can't accept the realities of my blindness to trauma trouble and drama in my past marriage in part because of my birth defects I have become well aware of what already always listening is  part of.

     Last year during covid-19 I reinvented what was I'm almost 30 year old model of a cognitive therapy log and changed it by name.  It's called a Critterotomy.  You may ask why I call it that. Well I have to be honest with you what I think I observe spiritually as a Christian and as a mystic. Those critters spiritually from the pits of hell that caused these negative thoughts even if you leave them behind will keep dumping negative thoughts waiting and knowing that you will return back to them. So as a man born and raised in the South I have to say this. Get them critters right now!

     Let me give you a sentence and context of inner dialogue and already always listening.  "Well Jimmy after you've achieved a small victory you always end up believing in yourself alone. You're a failure!". Now deep down I know that that's a lie. But I also know that it is a severe negative thought that I have been doing this for the past month.

     I remember this week I was very discouraged and trying to find mentors and finding my way. 2 days ago my 20-year-old nephew had enough.

     "OK!" He said. "Enough said talk.  I want you to do something listen to something or at least say something that makes you happy. No discouragement in this house we go through enough."

     He had to remind me again yesterday. Now is he right? Yes. Do I think he necessarily has the correct way of solving problems with negative thoughts? No. He tries and wants quick fixes. Believe me I tried that as a Young Man. A year and a half of a failed marriage stamped the quick fix it right out of me.  Nothing is a quick fix unless you get rid of already always listening and quit caring about what people think.

     But we all reactive culture has been set up for the past 3 years or practically more it's for us to have adversity, Bleet and have adversity.

     Okay so you may wonder why I put the last sentence in there. I agree with Minister and Communications expert Ken Davis when he says this. "Humans are like sheep. We are cookie cutters for our culture. We follow each other around!". Guess what. Hard and plain truth. Sheep bleat. It can be shrill like our reaction culture and that's why we follow each other's around and why adversity often comes in numbers and misery loves company. Tony Robbins hit the nail on his head when he said *people will abandon you and not talk to you when you are successful. But when you are depressed and down and failed they want to commiserate." And our react to culture wants us to think that way. So don't think that way!

     I'm no stranger to adversity. By itself it can be conquered. But now sometimes it seems with social media and electronic devices are reactive culture can exacerbate adversity and make it hard to cope. That's why I created a method to combat such negative thoughts especially those that have already always listening 

  It's the CAP Method.  Use it in adversity and success.

C Choose;. Remember! You have a choice! So choose wisely. The choice is you face and make now can help you overcome adversity.

Act;. Can Alex your way. Make a plan of action because sometimes we ourselves might be the main mountain that we need to move in order to be successful. So action is key in order to get rid of reactive culture and already always listening that cause adversity in the first place.

P.  Pursue happiness;. Happiness is not a destination. It's a journey. So many people say they'll be happy when they'll be happy when. So think about it choose happy now rather than to stay in the land of Suckyland where you give up your dreams.
