The Rocco Effect - Death (Others)

The comfort of having a friend may be taken away, but not that of having had one – Seneca


The Rocco Effect - Death (Others)

When the time comes and our loved ones part from us, what would be the best state for us to be in?  I believe it to be a state in which we have no regrets.  A state where we are proud of how much meaning we gave to their lives and how much they gave back.  A state in which we believe they smiled, thinking of our time together as they passed.  So how do we make that goal more likely?  

We pause before we speak and act and ask ourselves 'Will I regret saying/doing this?'.  We plan and attend events that will create memories.  We take in as much as we can when we are with loved ones, the sights, sounds, smells ect.  We make sure that regardless of what happened, you both leave every situation happy.  People don't remember specifics, but they do remember how you made them feel, make them feel great.


Task

1. Who's deaths would have the biggest impact on you? Why?
2. What can you do this month to create new memories?
3. How can you leave every situation happy?
4. How can you make amends for any regrets you currently have?

The Rocco Effect - Fuck Off!

Do not allow negative thoughts to enter your mind for they are the weeds that strangle confidence. - Bruce Lee How often do you have negative thoughts? I'm guessing more often than you'd like. We wouldn't let others talk to us that way, so why do we allow ourselves? Next time you notice one of these thought reply with 'Fuck off!' and replace it with the opposite though Eg. I'm stupid - Fuck off! - I'm a genius. Both are untrue, but one leads to you feeling rubbish and one leads to you feeling good. Why would you choose to feel rubbish when it's just as easy to feel great?  Comic Task   1. Notice your thoughts   2. Tell bad thoughts to 'Fuck off!'   3. Replace thought with the opposite   4. Start feeling great again   Journal questions   1. What thoughts have you told to 'Fuck off!'?  2. What have you replaced them with?  3. How do these new thoughts make you feel?

The Rocco Effect - Staying Sane

We panic when there is no structure in our lives or when something breaks our regular structure.  So if your regular structure has changes take time to plan out a new one.  It will take a while to adjust, but once you do you'll start feeling calmer.  Give it a go and notice how much better your life becomes/ Video
