“My best advice for mental training is simply to create good habits, in order to build a sense of security and calm around you. Also, you could try to distance yourself emotionally from the whole situation. In my case, I just look at it objectively: We are two guys going inside a cage to work. That's it. Try to de-escalate the pressure. Take a couple of deep breaths. Don't hype things up. And stay positive, even if you're fighting for your life.” IfsTryingLooksTwoWholeGuyOrderFightingSituationCasesAdviceSecurityCoupleHabitTrainingPressureBreathsDistanceCalmMmaCagesHypeStay PositiveDeep BreathBest AdviceGood HabitsTwo Guys Author:Alexander Gustafsson
“It's so easy to get into the same routine. A novel every two years; perhaps, improving technique. But I'm not interested in that. I'm interested in doing something fundamentally important--and therefore, it needs time. And what I've been doing, really, is avoiding this pressure to get into the habit of one novel a year. This is what is expected of novelists. And I have never been really too much concerned with doing what is expected of novelists, or writers, or artists. I want to do what I believe is important.” WantNeedsWritingYearsBelieveTwoImportantArtistI BelieveEasyNovelToo MuchHabitConcernedPressureExpectedTechniqueNovelistsTwo YearsRoutineNot InterestedImprovingAvoidingEasy To GetTime Of Need Author:Chinua Achebe
“The everyday brain could be dubbed "the baseline brain," because it operates at the minimum functioning to keep you alive and healthy. It controls your heart rate, your blood pressure, your immune function, all of your subconscious impulses. That's not a minor role; the baseline brain is a marvel of complexity and efficiency. But too much of it is devoted to habits, old conditioning, unconscious reflexes, and lack of self-awareness.” HeartSelfBrainRolesToo MuchAliveBloodAwarenessHabitHealthyFunctionPressureSelf AwarenessEverydayRateImpulseComplexityUnconsciousDevotedMinorsEfficiencyMinimumSubconsciousConditioningImmuneReflexesBlood PressureHeart Rate Author:Deepak Chopra
“People do sometimes change, of course. Habits, allegiances, dreams are all alterable, but only under extraordinary pressure - like great love, fear, grief. More often, people don't change. A girl who never missed a day of work does not suddenly decide to stay home in bed, for no good reason.” PeopleDoeSometimesReasonHomeDreamGirlCoursesGriefHabitBedPressureExtraordinaryAllegianceGreat LoveDon't ChangeFear Of LovePeople Don't Change Book:Dreams of Sleep Source: Dreams of Sleep
