One of the most tried and true methods for problem solving is the trial and error method. Despite its lack of sophistication Cheap Custom Made Jerseys China , sometimes it's the most efficient choice, especially because it can succeed where other methods fail. With trial and error, you're always guaranteed a learning experience, and you'll often identify multiple solutions as you experiment.
Yet how often do we fail to proceed to the trial phase because we're afraid of experiencing the error?
We make the mistake of believing that the error is somehow harmful to us, when it is actually helpful. Each error is the feedback we need to formulate a new trial Cheap Custom Made Jerseys , one that will hopefully lead to new errors and new trials until we ultimately converge on an acceptable solution. So an error is not a failure. An error is in fact merely a step on the path to a success. No errors usually means no successes.
The irony is that we may fear success even more than failure because to our egos, success is a double-edged sword.
On the one hand, if your experiment works, then you get the results you want. But on the other hand, if you get the results you want Cheap Custom Jerseys Free Shipping , then you also have to face the fact that you were making a continuous mistake all the while you were ?not testing.?
For example, if you ask your boss for a raise, and she says yes, then the good news is that you get the raise now. But the bad news is that you have to accept that maybe you could have gotten it last year (or sooner) just by asking as you did today. You have to face the fact that fear held you back.
In the long run, it's better to face that fear and to finally achieve the results you want than it is to deny your past fear and simultaneously prevent yourself from making the attempt today. I suspect that in some area of your life Cheap Custom Jerseys From China , there's a past fear that's still holding you back ? an area where you could achieve greater success if you could only allow yourself to be OK with facing up to a previous mistake.
In running my shareware games business, I had a reputation for doing a lot of testing. I was frequently running experiments like testing different kinds of order forms or home page layouts. Most tests didn't produce the results I was hoping for, but all of them produced information. However, those tests that did produce results invariably forced me to face two facts: 1) Here was a more effective way of generating results that I could apply immediately (wonderful), and 2) I missed out on those results in the past by not running this test sooner (hmmm).
We have an easy time accepting Cheap Custom Made Jerseys ,4# but I know a lot of people who cannot bring themselves to face #2. They fear it. Imagine running a business for 5 years selling products at a certain price (call it X)? It's understandable you might experience trepidation about running an experiment to see if 2X or 3X or 0.5X would be more effective. What if one simple experiment ? the kind that you can setup with an online business in about an hour if you know what you're doing ? could instantly reveal a way to double your income? Coupled with your joy at unearthing this discovery is the regret that you missed out on a lot of income by not doing it sooner.
How often do we find ourselves so deeply invested in our egos and in our past that we miss opportunities for a brighter future?
If today you could successfully double your income, get a date with the person you've only dreamed of asking out, find a job you truly loved, or experience a diet that sent your energy skyward, would you not also feel some regret about not doing it sooner? And each year that passes when you don't act Cheap Custom Jerseys , aren't you making the burden of that future regret even greater? to the point where it could paralyze you from taking those very actions that would ultimately produce success?
This is a tough block, is it not?
What allowed me to get past this block was the realization that ultimately we face a personal choice here. This is one of those situations where raising your consciousness beyond a certain point will neutralize the problem permanently.
Let me 'splain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up.
You exist only in the present moment. Your past is composed of memories, but you still access those memories in your present. Your past is only real ? it only has existence to you ? when you consciously focus your attention on it. It is your attention that gives your past its power, and it is also your attention that feeds your ego. You can choose to stop focusing so much attention on your ego and your personal history Cheap Custom Team Jerseys Free Shipping , and instead you can redirect that attention to identify more with your consciousness and your awareness. In other words you stop thinking of yourself in terms of your memories, and you start thinking of yourself in terms of your consciousness. You have access to your memories just as you have access to the information on this web site, but your memories are not equal to you.
