Feeling glum?
August 14, 2007
I often begin the day feeling a little low on energy – and find relatively simple challenges insurmountable. One method of kick-starting my day that I have found useful is the The Velten Mood induction procedure. This consists of reading a series of statements which express a neutral outlook and get progressively more and more positive (there is a list that also gets more and more negative should you find yourself feeling too happy and motivated!). Check out idiolect for Tom’s write up.
After reading through a series of statements in the positive Velten, I leap into projects energetically that moments before seemed daunting.
I find it interesting how easy it is to manage one’s attitude and outlook. My mind, it seems, is most malleable! Does it work for you?
