We all want our children to have the best futures. So what is the most important age for the development of a child? We learned most of our thinking and our behaviors, including how to stay healthy, how to deal with stress and how to succeed, in our first six years from the people close to us. Who was close to you in your first six years? Have you run into any limits with "others' ways?" Do you want to pass the same things you learned down to your children? Do you want to know more about how to eat healthy and stay fit, how to utilize medical systems, how to prevent your children from becoming overweight or acquiring sexually transmitted diseases, how to help them deal with various criticisms and other stress while succeeding faster?
It is time to explore, reevaluate and update our software (our mind), stress handling and staying healthy, so we can have the most updated knowledge for ourselves and have the ability to educate our children for better futures. Human potential includes the mind, body and handling the interrelations with a person's internal and external worlds. By optimizing the three parts, we will be able to manage stress well, have human software (our mind) updated and stay healthy.
With more and more adversities facing us every day, stress management has become increasingly important. In survey after survey, over 50% of adults in the US report having high stress on a daily basis, per Dr. Benson at harvard. This has significantly affected individuals' lives and businesses' productivity and medical and legal costs. We need to learn how to recognize negative symptoms of stress, such as poor poor thinking, anger, and stomachache. We not only want to reduce today's stress and its sources from both our internal and external worlds, but also prevent tomorrow's stress from coming or even pulling us back. Our own software and health can not only affect our stress management capacities, but can also generate stress.
Our thinking system is like the software running inside us, profoundly affecting our health, our emotions, our ability to handle stress in a crisis, and our ability to succeed. We could learn; we can relearn. We need to identify and replace the insufficient thinking that limits our potential, such as poor self-esteem, low motivation, assumption or bias, fear or phobia, poor appearance, poor recovery from illness or trauma or mistakes or failures, etc. Checking our "inventory" and upgrading our "software" will enable us to be the best we can be and present our best to our internal and external worlds.
Good health enables our human software and the ability to handle stress or crisis function at their fullest efficiency. Without a stethoscope or entering a health care profession, we can learn how to eat healthy and stay fit; how to sleep well; how to do self-examinations; how to recognize and prevent common illnesses; how to properly handle some emergency illnesses; how to work with doctors and hospitals and fully utilize different medical systems and knowledge, such as herbs and acupuncture. We want to know how to avoid illnesses and stay healthy, how to handle illnesses efficiently when they occurs, how to recover from them faster, and more.
By best improving the above three keys, we can bring our potential, including Stress Management, our influences over others, and our health to the highest, while proving excellent guidance to our children. It is good to learn all three parts together in a systematic way.
