We humans don’t have much patience any more… not that we ever really had a lot of it, but technology has increasingly enabled us to practice our dysfunctionality with quite a flair. For example, people are checking their voice messages and mail while driving. Instead of exercising with a vengeance, we have steroids. Rather than read a book, most of us will watch a movie on DVD or listen to an audio book. Microwave ovens. Fast food – the faster the better. Talk about dysfunctional, we have become lazy AND impatient simultaneously! There’s an unlikely pair.
Taking the path of least resistance can lead to poor health, and bad habits are quite user-friendly - but we don’t need to get wrapped up in any modern health-care system! Before we know it, they have us taking four meds to offset the side effects of one. So we do things (the quickest things possible) to bump up our health and energy levels, like taking supplements such as calcium or power boosters like the new, colorful hordes of energy drinks. There is currently no shortage of legal substances whose marketers urgently claim that we must have in order to survive – and they are quite good at it. The best news is, if you choose carefully, many shortcuts are really effective! It is actually possible to simplify your life as you improve it.
If you made it this far, you must like to read; so in order to share the inspiration for this edition, I’m adding the URL of the following article below. Robert McNeil puts a new slant on self-help in his column entitled "Rise early, work hard, succeed? Dream o
" - Here’s an excerpt:
“The mind, alas, is a lazy sod. It does not want you to create or exercise or diet. Its primary function is to provide excuses and pretend that watching television or sitting in a drunken stupor is a valid way to spend one's entire, irritatingly short existence.”
Humor is truly theraputic! Now that the base of Sprudio newsletters has been established, hopefully they’ll get funnier at times. Self-help is serious business for some, though, because it can really motivate them to rise above or solve real problems.
Subliminal and hypnosis audio were originally developed as an evolved version of the self-help book; and since then, technology has improved their quality and effectiveness. Maybe our minds are evolving too, this is not to deny intelligent design but it’s hard to refute any type of evolving whatsoever. As we know, the subconscious can hear very well! Sound travels into the ear and directly into the brain – where both the conscious and unconscious deal with it in their own respective styles. We know that the subconscious in particular interprets sensory input (what it hears, in this case) and actively controls our behavior. We can therefore conclude (since we are no longer bound to outdated self-help methods) that it is productive for us to recognize and try to understand our own subconscious and how we might use this knowledge for benefit (habit improvement, performance enhancement, success via quality audio input). Wow, that was a mouthful.
Self help is so much easier these days: Thank God for evolution!
