The Rocco Effect - Thoughts, Feelings and Actions

Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him – Jesus 


Being sad isn't just a feeling.  We think 'Why does no one like me?' 'What did I do wrong?' ;Why do I hurt so much?' and create lists of reasons why we should feel sad.  We become lazy, we do nothing and lose our sense of meaning and purpose.  The opposite is also true.  What are your thoughts like when you feel your best?  How much more gets done when you feel your best?  When we start viewing all three as connected we are able to quickly change states.  We've all experienced being in a bad mood only to go to sleep and wake up feeling a lot better. We procrastinate until our thoughts or feelings move us into action.  How good do you feel before and after you exercise?    When we think positively, act right and feel great our lives get filled with more and more greatness.  When we choose to think negatively, not act and linger in those negative feelings they'll grow too, until you're stuck in a hell of your own creation.  Choose to be happy, think positive and do what needs done.

The Rocco Effect - Focus

Always remember, your focus determines your reality. - George Lucas Focus is the key to a better life. What we focus on is what we see, what we see determines your reality. To see this for yourself watch the 'selective attention test' on Youtube. Since focus is directly linked to our reality, does it make any sense to focus on the negative? Of course not. It makes sense to focus on solutions you can take to make things better, but that's a positive, don't confuse the two. Should a negative thought creep into your head tell it with as much passion an emotion as you can to 'F**k Off!' and replace it with the exact opposite or a solution. e.g 'I suck, no one will ever love me' changes to 'I'm awesome. Everyone loves me' (both are untrue, but one leads to a much better outcome.), What we focus on will become our reality, stop focusing on being a loser and start focusing on being the hero you where born to be Comic Video Reading Task For the next ...

The Rocco Effect - Values

It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are. ― Roy Disney Values are the reason why somethings make us happy and others make us sad. If you value the truth, even a white lie, in the hopes to make you feel better, would hurt you. If you value family, only for them to pick friends over you, that would hurt. Often we feel this way, without knowing why and this leads to a lot of stress and questioning ourselves.  Once you know your values, knowing what choice to make is a lot easier. You choose whatever choice is closest to your highest values. Even in failure, you can rest happy, knowing that you made the right choice. Comic Video Reading Task 1.
