if I would have liked above all to avoid

Post by jrineakter »

And I thought, "What's the opportunity?" The opportunity is for me to sit down again and maybe think about a new way of working, because this person was in charge of content. So it's Valentine, who a lot of people know, especially the members of the academy, because Valentine created a lot of stuff for the academy.

And so over time, well, I managed to say to myself: "Well, maybe I can even, even her leaving us, I can transform this into an opportunity and sit down and say to myself: Hey, we're going to review our ways of making content. Before, I worked this way; now, we're going to see about working in another way."

And I transformed this emotion, which was basically a very negative emotion into a neutral, even positive emotion, because I said to myself: "Wow, it's exciting to face a blank sheet of paper again and review how we're going to work on the content." I finally succeeded, thanks to this rational pause that lasts, eh, it's not something that can be done in 3 minutes, I simply managed to transform this very negative emotion into a neutral, even slightly positive emotion. That's how I managed to do it. And it's a really silly example but it happened to me this week, so that's why I'm taking it, but you can use it for anything, really.

So I strongly recommend that in these times, you look for the opportunity, to tell yourself: "Here, I have the power to change the emotion. The reflex reaction that I have, I can't change it; what poland whatsapp number data happens to me, I can't change it. On the other hand, the emotion that will result from all of this, I can change it."

Of course, you have to work on it. I am very, very happy and very proud, to be honest, of the example that I just shared because this example, a year ago, a year and a half ago, it would have been very, very difficult for me. I would probably have been very stressed and very anxious etc. but it is work and practice that means that over time we can simply overcome this kind of thing.

So I really invite you to work on it. It's like muscles, eh. We do sports, we gain a little muscle, but we have to continue, otherwise the muscles come back as they were before. So it's a practice of development, of maintenance and sometimes it doesn't work. We can have moments during which we missed this phase of reflex reaction transforming into emotion and we haven't managed to transform it. But with time and training, it's really something you can do.

I'm going to continue my walk in the rain, of course. Thank you for listening to me today, for following this podcast. It's always a pleasure to have you. And really take the time to go take a look at www.francaisauthentique.com/academie to discover everything that the academy will do for you. Sign up for the waiting list and it will be a pleasure to meet you in person starting October 1st.
