Double Click On Happiness (Part 1): Carlos Camacho Psychologist
The brain is like a computer:
Great at processing information but
not good at thinking.
If you double click on Word and you
want Excel,
the computer won’t know you wanted
Excel and will open Word.
If you tell yourself you can’t, the
brain will go with that.
Whatever you put into your brain,
you will get out.
Start the day with a positive
thought,
your brain will believe you even if
things aren’t as great as you would wish.
Say the positive thought out loud
with confidence,
its like having a keyboard or a mouse for your
brain.
Double click on happiness

How To Be Confident: Carlos Camacho Psychology
Nobody is born with the confident
gene.
People who are confident work hard
at it, like being fit or saving money.
The more you practice it the better
you will be at it.
You can condition your brain to fell
and be confident.
It has nothing to do with personality.
Confidence is released when you ask
your brain to do it.
How do you do that? Well that’s the
easy part:
You train your brain to make you
look confident, just like actors do.
Now the hard part is to do it
regularly enough to make it look natural.
Just like writing with your other
hand, if you practice enough it will work.
Feel confident and look confident to
others,
That’s all it is.
Confidence doesn’t really exist,
It’s not an external force that some
are blessed to have.
You are only as confident as you
make yourself.
You decide today to be timid and
scared,
Or confident an courageous,
You choose.

How to be Happy (Part 2) Carlos Camacho Psychologist
Without a doubt the essence of life
is to be happy.
Many smarter people than me tried
searching for the meaning of life and none seem to have discovered it, so I am
not going to try. But what is a common
thread with all beliefs is the common denominator of “happiness”. The secret of life id to be happy. That may sound obvious but it seems that most
things around us are there to do the exact opposite. Sure they might make our lives more
comfortable but not necessarily happier.
Evolution is not necessarily in line with technological advances. We have not caught up to the incredible
advances in the last 100 years and therefore our bodies and minds are not capable
of making sense of our new world. It is
obvious with the fast food epidemic, quick and fast does not always mean
better. It is important to attempt to
simplify things around us, choose the things that help us progress but also
reject those that serve as an obstacle to our development as individuals. Walk more, sleep better, eat healthier and choose
the people around you wisely. Create an
environment that will nurture your positive thoughts and not feed the negative
ones. Remember, the basis of the human
brain is negative thought, it is there to protect us from doing things that may
harm us, but they also act as the greatest obstacle in attempting new things
and ultimately reaching our goals.
People that are positive work hard at it, there is no “positive gene”,
just like healthy people work hard at keeping fit, feeling good and looking
well. Don’t expect things to just fall
on your lap, you can’t skip effort; happiness is a daily chore that requires
effort in a planned manner. We always
have a choice: exercise or watch TV? drink water or soft drink?, an apple or a
Mars bar?, walk or drive to the shops? Ring a friend or upload nonsense on
Facebook? negative or positive people around us? Decide to be happy; Define a
plan, Do it

How to be Happy: Carlos Camacho Psychologist
Happiness is like trying to hold water in your hand.
We spend our lives chasing things that we think will give us this happiness.
Most of the things we chase bring us happiness for a very short time.
But the process of getting them is long and does not usually make us happy.
It has been proven that humans share a constant of happiness, like an average.
It doesn’t matter what happens in your life, good or bad, eventually you will go back to that average.
This means that if you suddenly earn a lot of money your happiness will spike
But eventually over a small period of time you will plateau back to the average.
The same goes for when you experience a bad situation.
This means that we search for things that at best will provide us with happiness only for a small time. We become addicted to getting these small pieces of happiness because they feel good, like a hit of adrenaline or a drug.
We can also decide to simplify our lives by enjoying the moment and the process and getting rid of all the things that complicate our existence. This allows for more clarity in our worlds and allows us to focus on the things that give us happiness for more time even though they may not provide the same short fast rush.
It has been proven that objects don’t make people happy for long, when you think of your happy moments they are usually based on a situation, a time of your life, you don’t think of what you had or what you were wearing but where you were, who you were with, what you were doing. I can assure you that your happiest times are full of simplicity.
Take time to get rid of things you don’t need, that’s a good start. Throw them out or give them away. Focus on quality not quantity; you need to create space for happiness.
The secret of life is this my friends:
Less Of More
