RE: Can You Trust Your Mind?

in #psychology7 years ago

Wow....such a wonderful and interesting topic for blogging....
We rely on our mind for everything — every thought, decision, opinion or idea you can conjure up is thought to come from the mind. But did you know your mind can’t always be trusted? Living inside your head is dangerous. This is where your saboteurs are triggered, and that is when your internal enemies come to light, habitual mind patterns creep in and negative self-talk takes over.
As Shirzad Chamine writes in his book, Positive Intelligence, your saboteurs manifested themselves when you were a child and shaped your outlook on the world. They were survival tools that you developed to protect and cope with physical and emotional forces and they remain into adulthood — even though you no longer need them. Your saboteurs are so ingrained in your mind that they shape all of the behaviors and thought patterns that work against you....
Wel done and perfect work my dear friend @arbitrarykitten mam...
Cheers~~

The saboteurs in this book you're referring to- are they similar to Ego in this article?
