I always love when I open the right book at the right time or turn on the TV and one of my favorites things in on. Well, something like that happened today but I wasn’t even looking. I love that I can cast Youtube from my phone to my bedroom tv, well today I was doing some work on the computer and I wanted to watch some videos about the stuff I love, blogging, marketing, stuff like that, nothing special, but this filled the silence without having to put on music. Don’t get me wrong, I love my silence but when doing some tasks, this helps.
After watching a video about blogging suddenly one started to play that I think was titled, The best speech ever, the secret to self-motivation. It talks about the 5-second rule and no, not the one where if you drop that piece of candy on the floor you can pick it up within 5 seconds, if no one saw you, maybe you have 10.
This was about how motivation rarely works but counting down from 5, 4. 3. 2. 1 can and does all over the world. I had watched something about this earlier in the year and had implemented it, but then like some habits, I just stopped, but it had been working.
It was like my mojo knew I needed this 5-second rule reminder. Now writing this it reminded me that I used this method when I never heard of as I dealt with major anxiety attacks in the past, I would allow my self 5 seconds to change my thoughts, it always worked. Tips to survive an anxiety attack Please share below if you have used this countdown method to stop anxiety or improve areas of your life. Normally the simple things we feel won’t work.
I strongly encourage you to watch this video, it may be just what you needed to snap into action for things in your life, this will apply to every single area of your life. The link is below and I embedded the video so you can save another second, and you better know I am counting down, if you do not click the link to watch within 5 seconds, you never will.
