“Life is a rollercoaster Just gotta ride it....” sang Ronan Keating Life is full of ups and downs, twists and turns, thrills and spills, just like a roller coaster. People say to me.... “yes, but the difference is we can choose to ride the roller coaster or not. There are many things in our life we cannot choose and many people and events that we cannot control” I do not argue with them. I believe there is only one thing within our control, how you feel and in turn, how you react to the world you live in. This has a direct effect on what happens around you and to you. "We can choose to ride the roller coaster or not, there are many things in our life we cannot choose and many people and events that we cannot control.” When you are riding the roller coaster, you and the others sharing the ride go on the same route, have the same ups and downs, the same twists and turns, the same thrills and spills. Some of the people on the ride will scream in delight, enjoy the adrenaline rush, and soak up the experience to relive it over-and-over again when they remember the ride. Then there are others who, despite being on the same ride at the same time, will scream with fear, close their eyes and wish the ride would end. They also soak up the experience and relive it over-and-over again when they remember the ride. Other people will be on the same ride, and feel neither the excitement nor the fear. The adrenaline doesn’t rush through them; they don’t enjoy the ride particularly, and they don’t hate it either, they just go along quite literally for the ride because others do it, and it seems like the right thing to do at the time. They also experience feelings that they will relive over-and-over again when they remember the ride. As you can see different people will have different experiences even when they are doing the same thing, at the same time and under the same conditions. THAT’S OK! Just remember that: Y O U have the choice about how you feel Y O U have control over how you feel Y O U decide what experience you will have based on the way you F E E L. I invite you to join me in 2023 on the roller coaster of life. There will be ups and downs, twists and turns, thrills and spills. We will have different experiences at different times and some of them may not always feel good...that’s OK. One thing I can promise you is that the choice is yours. The only thing that ever matters at any time or place is - how you feel -and you are the only one who can control that. Are you ready to take 100% responsibility for Y O U! Go on, give it a go and see what happens. The only person stopping you is Y O U! You Got This. Let me know how it goes.

Is this Fear or Excitement? Feeling excitement is feeling fear with a KNOWN outcome. Excitement is predictable fear. What is fear? What is excitement? Is it fear or excitement? Emotion: a strong feeling E-motion: energy in motion Excitement is predictable fear.
Pretty much the same physiological process is at work in your body during excitement or fear except, when you are excited it activates the reward centre of your brain at the same time. Everything that you feel is emotion (or E-motion) . What does that mean? The Latin derivative for the word emotion, emotere, literally means energy in motion. You were born with a sixth sense–emotion. Like your other five senses, this is not something you learned; emotion is the awareness you have which communicates satisfaction or dissatisfaction/ease or dis-ease. Pivot point: Your emotions are your unique internal guidance system (Inner GPS), letting you know when you have disconnected from your inner knowing of what is right for you. Picture this scenario: A child is visiting the fairground for the first time. All around him, he sees these incredible rides. It is so new and exciting. They get to the big wheel; it looks enormous. It is going round and round so fast. It is very high. All those people looking down on him seem so far away. As they approach the ticket gate, he feels something in his belly, a strange feeling. It is a strong feeling, different from anything he has ever felt in his 5 young years. His mother, sensing the change in him, grips his hand tighter and says it’s ok, don’t feel scared. I am right by your side. I am keeping you safe. Oh, he thinks, I’m scared. So, this is how fear feels. Another child is standing close by. He has the same sensations and feelings when he is looking at this gigantic wheel. His mother senses the change in him too, and as he grasps her hand, she looks at him and says, this is going to be so exciting for you, a new experience, and I am right by your side, keeping you safe. Oh, he thinks, I’m excited. So, this is what it feels like to be excited. Both these children will have a unique experience during the ride, and they will associate the feeling they have in different ways throughout their life. This example may seem too simplistic for many of you. Yet when you understand how your feelings and emotions affect your body, you can see that this kind of experience, especially as a child, can have a profound effect on your life. Pivot point: Feeling excited is feeling fear with a KNOWN outcome. Are you killing the thrill? If you would like to discuss it, feel free to contact me here. |
