As a counselor, I often have friends ask me:
My goal for myself is very clear, that is, there is no execution, what to do?
I knew I was going to grow, but in the blink of an eye I was attracted to my phone, why was my willpower so weak?
I also often encounter similar visitors during the consultation process. The mouth shouts that I want to change, but I even indulge in my own situation and enjoy the dividends that the situation brings. But the other type of visitor changes quickly, three or five times can solve their own problems, what is the difference between the two?
I've looked at all kinds of clients, and I think the biggest difference is actually cognitive awakening. Clients who change quickly have always had a belief in their hearts that I wanted to change, and for that belief they could absorb and accept more different ideas. So they change quickly, even if in the process of change they will go back to the old way, they can quickly return to themselves through new cognition.
However, the change of cognition is not overnight, how can you make yourself change your concepts faster and accelerate the pace of your own growth? I suggest you take a look at The Cognitive Awakening by Mind Explorer Zhou Ling.
Zhou Ling laughed at himself as a "awake asleep person", did not understand himself, did not advocate life, had no choice for fate, work squeezed all his enthusiasm, and his 8 hours away were either hangovers, or brushing funny videos, playing games or sleeping. He used to think that his future was such carefree and careless.
An accident with a good friend makes him re-examine himself, and he finds himself useless and falls into anxiety. After that, he began to explore the soul, in 2017 began to operate his own public account "Qing Brain", in 2018 opened a Q&A column, became a growth consultant, in the WeChat public account open rate of only 2%-5% today, his article open rate has always remained at 20%-30%, but also by the "People's Daily" official Weibo and other media scramble to reprint.
"Cognitive Awakening" is Zhou Ling's five-year grinding sword work, after basing on a special number of "confused cases", he found that the methods he explored can solve the confusion and troubles of most people, so with the basic appearance of this book, as more and more cases accumulate, his methods are becoming more and more mature, so we see the book "Cognitive Awakening".
As a consultant who reads at least 50 books a year, I read a lot of cognitive books, some obscure, some too drooling. Cognitive Awakening is a book that people can read happily. Zhou Ling uses metaphors to write monotonous, boring brain science knowledge in an easy way, which is not only interesting but also informative. Highlights and illustrations for some of the main content make it easier for us to understand.
"Cognitive Awakening" consists of eight chapters, which can be divided into two parts, the first 3 chapters from the brain science, subconscious and metacognitive aspects through metaphor to make obscure scientific knowledge vivid and interesting, from the inside to solve our anxiety problems, and let us get the spontaneous motivation to change.
This is also what I often mention in counseling, we want to change our behavior, we should first change our cognition, cognition does not change, we do not have a continuous behavior to insist on.
The last 5 chapters are considered methodologies. Cognition has improved, and we also need specific coping strategies. The last five chapters start with learning ability improvement, emotional control and growth methods, so that we not only have a heartfelt willingness to change, but also have specific and feasible ways to change.
If you want to get better, but always lack patience and rush to achieve results, look at it! Cognitive Awakening will make you understand why your mindset is the way it is.
If you want to be diligent, you are always lazy and self-consuming. Look at it! Cognitive Awakening will tell you the secret behind false diligence.
If you want to work hard, but always want to compete perseverance, hard support, look at it! Cognitive Awakening will stimulate your inner motivation to make the effort spontaneous and run fast.
If you want to improve, but always take turns, confused and helpless? Look at it! The five-piece set of life in "Cognitive Awakening" allows you to improve yourself and get the most growth at the lowest cost.
