Tennis pro Serena Williams reveals a technological trick that pretty much guarantees a good mood.
According to her using affirmations as the passwords to her phone and computer has turned out to be a great stress buster.
Carnegie Mellon University researchers have found that personal affirmations can improve problem-solving under stress. Their conclusion is “People under high stress can foster better problem-solving simply by taking a moment beforehand to think about something that is important to them,”
Psychotherapist and author Ronald Alexander put it into perspective in a blog he wrote for HuffPost. In his words:
“An affirmation can work because it has the ability to program your mind into believing the stated concept. This is because the mind doesn’t know the difference between what is real or fantasy. When you watch a movie and you start to laugh or cry your mind is empathizing with the vlog characters on the screen even though it is only Hollywood magic.”
Positive thinking is a tool many athletes employ to get on their “A” game, and positive self-talk is a pillar of sports psychology because it’s been proven to enhance performance. Happyho also provide best tarot reading services in Noida and Delhi NCR India area.
But Serena William’s positive password maneuver is especially ingenious because it requires little work. Since password input is a fact of life anyway, you don’t have to set aside five minutes to dedicate to affirmations. You’ll just have to change your passwords once to reap the benefits.
what a powerful tool!
if the simple tweaking of a digital password can make a tennis pro feel strong, it’s worth trying at least once.
