Dear Audrey-
I’m going to ask you to recall or imagine a time when you experienced “Ease and Flow”. Feel the emotion that goes along with this states. Chances are “Ease and Flow” resulted in a feeling of contentment, happiness, luck, detachment to outcome, feeling blessed, and having time to savor, etc.
Next, I’m going to ask you to recall or imagine a time when you experienced a “No Pain, No Gain” mindset. Tapping into the emotions of that situation might evoke discontent, continuous searching, striving, anxiety, I’ll be good enough when I achieve "fill in the blank"___.
It's a fact that you perform at your best when you are experiencing a positive emotion. You are smarter, think more clearly, are open to more possibilities, and people like you more. In contrast when you are feeling a negative emotion, you are very focused on the problem, not as likely to see other possibilities, and people don’t enjoy your company as much.
High performers are much more likely to have a positive mindset. But having a negative mindset isn't our fault. It’s the way our brains evolved. Our distant ancestors were much more likely to survive if their brains held onto and amplified threats. Your mind is constantly sabotaging your potential for both performance and happiness. All your negative emotions, including STRESS are the result of self-sabotage.
