Positive Mental Training

Although I am still young in gaining a  new profession, I like to think I am very smart, motivated, and disciplined as an individual who has experienced many successes in my life. Some people would think that is very courageous to say about oneself, however, I am a strong believer in the power of a positive attitude. I discovered this one day when I sat down and asked myself, "What is going on? All of these good things are coming to me!" Now, after realization, the answer seems as though it is common sense. I was experiencing these successes in my young life because I was building the stepping stones around me. I was making the connections, putting the time in, gathering information and putting everything together. After one achievement came another, and after that, another. Although there were many street lights, stop signs, U turns and uneven roads, the power of my positive attitude always brought me through.
 
Now, after few months, positive thinking and having a healthy, optimistic attitude is part of my daily lifestyle. I have learned to be mindful of my “internal dialogue" which helps me recognize thought patterns and how they may be affecting the way I handle situations.
With this new knowledge, I need to learn to remove certain scotomas ( an expression to indicate that one fails to see or is blind to alternatives and therefore can see only limited possibilities- PX2 handbook)in life, increase my self esteem ( the degree to which one values oneself: the worth/ value of the picture- PX2 handbook), self image ( the accumulation of all attitudes and opinions one has perceived about oneself that form a subconscious picture of oneself- PX2 handbook) and finally my self concept ( ones opinion of self worth.
With all the new found mental training that I have  received in PX2 training, I am retraining myself to become a better and more self conscious person to myself and those around me.
