You’ve got to “read to lead” as the old saying goes and I’ve been running across quite a few good articles showing a body/mind/spirit connection. So many people seem to think that their words are somehow disconnected from the way they feel and from the circumstances of their life, but this just isn’t so. Here’s how this works, What you say forms what you believe (and visa versa), what you believe shapes your actions and your actions shape your future and have shaped your present. Here’s an interesting article on the Placebo affect which once again proves that What You Think, changes your physical chemistry.
It even works in reverse, your body posture affects how you feel and think. Here’s an article on an interesting study from Ohio State on how BODY POSTURE AFFECTS CONFIDENCE.
For years I’ve been fascinated with how creative people think differently from others. Here’s a great article from Harvard Business Review on How Innovators Think. I love it.
Ever wonder why scripture talks so much about thinking about things that are right, just, pure, good and will build up, edify, encourage? Here’s an article in the New York Times that shows how your brain can be like a vicious circle, turning over bad (or good) information over and over again.
As a little bonus, here’s a link to a page that lists great websites to watch GREAT THINKERS.
Take the time to read these articles, keep growing and learning
