Whether you think you can or you can't you are right

After reading Chapter 4 of "Winning with Mentality", my excerpts and insights are:

First, as long as you have a strong belief, your mentality can be changed.

Before, when faced with difficulties, I found it difficult to continue.

Seeing the boy who was trailing 14-0, he also said: He has not been completely defeated, why should he be discouraged?

It seems that I don’t need to be discouraged. I have to believe in myself and I can keep doing it.

Encourage yourself to have strong beliefs.

Second, the joke about the parrot admitting defeat is very interesting and worth excerpting:

On a ship, there was a parrot, which was the captain's pet. Everyone liked it, except the magician on the boat, because every time the magician performed a trick on the audience, the parrot would always say: "I know, I know, he hid the dove in his hat!" The magician was very angry, but there was nothing he could do about it. Who said it was the captain's pet? One day, there was a strong storm on the sea and the ship sank. Fortunately, both the parrot and the magician escaped death. Unfortunately, they were trapped on the same sampan. The parrot and the magician competed with each other and looked askance at each other. One day, two days, three days... floating, floating on the vast sea. Finally, the parrot couldn't bear it anymore and started talking to the magician: "I give up! Tell me, where did you change the boat?"

The story tells us that belief has nothing to do with reality.

In contrast, belief is as the saying goes, "Whether you think you can or you can't, you are right."

This means we can change our beliefs at any time to increase the confidence we need to achieve our goals.

Third, images can support beliefs, and beliefs can affect mentality.

When we think of very strong beliefs, for example:

1) What we prayed for before came true,

2) In a certain situation, Kindness paid off.

3) What it would be like to become a CEO.

At this time, you may think of a large sunny office and a cherry wood desk.

The images formed by what you believe are large, detailed, bright, and colorful.

When visualizing an important belief, breathing becomes slow and low. Blood flow increases and hands may become warm.

These can support our beliefs and affect our mentality.

Therefore, we need to use images to help us have a better mindset.
