Fallen off, Temporarily.
Wednesday, October 21, 2009
So I am a dance teacher at this High School...
NEVER in a MILLION years... thats why its not good to say never... did I think I would be a leader of some sort speaking comfortably in front of a group of people. When I say it was bad as far as me being in front of groups, it was BAD. I used to avoid these types of situations and it was progressively getting worse. I don't remember being THIS bad in high school, but after I graduated college, it had gotten worse.... weird huh?? But I am happy with doing what I am doing.
I am open to criticism... whoa... we (INFP's) HATE criticism lol But I have been very receptive. I am always looking for ways to improve my leadership skills. Man I am proud of myself! Even though its not a high paying job, yet, but it is benefitting my life in so many ways. Its allowing me to grow. I've been stagnant for awhile due to my avoidant personality. Stepping outside of the box isnt easy, but once you've done it, its not as bad as one would think! I absolutely love it so far. Theres no other way you can improve yourself if you've been constantly repeating the same habits.
I've had my vision board up for a couple of months and many of the things on there have come true such as: Having faith in Self, Getting Quantum Mind Power (Thanks again Morry!), Peace (with myself), Giving back, To Inspire, Daring to be different, growing spiritually, connecting better with others and Not following the herd. Things that have not come true YET, but will: is getting a job *well maybe it did...* still searching though... getting my own place, making $4,000 in 1 month, money, developing my business plan....
It seems more of the materialistic things haven't come true yet, but they WILL... As far as the things that mean the most to me, they already have and I am progressing with each! But anywho... I am a happier person in general... money will soon come! Fear is slowly but surely no longer becoming a ruling factor in my life.
PEACE!!!
Baby Shower and Old Friends
However, I went to a friends baby shower and had a BALL.. not because we were dancing and blah blah blah.... but I saw old friends that I hadn't seen in a LONG time. Sometimes while someone is talking to me, I have these voices in my head that distract me from what they are saying and changes my overall mood. It can happen in the beginning, during the middle, and rarely at the end of a conversation. It NEVER fails to make the situation awkward. I am an INFP trying to change my life. Its funny how most INFP's are not happy with the way they are. But any who, I had an excellent time... I was just getting to know what was going on in their lives and I felt great. One friend of mine is a celebrity stylist going to move to LA in a couple of months, and another friend of mine is happily single, making her own way. She has a car, apartment and everything. I was mostly inspired by those two. Definitely inspired by the first one because she wants to get a tattoo that says "Fearless"... Oh how I LOVE that. But as I was saying, my anxiety levels were pretty much ZERO, and I had a GREAT time. This program is making positive changes in my life. I notice cumulative changes are definitely more important than the sudden changes...

Almost 2 month update...
About 3 weeks ago, I started working as a volunteer at this school teaching dance (my passion) at this at-risk high school after school program. I have been avoiding roles of leadership ALL of my life. Fear and self doubt had taken over my life dramatically in different areas. I am so glad to say that I am HAPPY. I am not only stepping outside of my comfort zone, I am a mentor for these kids. I have found my voice where it normally would silence itself in front of large groups of people. I am gaining self confidence in so many ways. At first I was terrified, but that little voice inside has become more and more quiet. This program and this new role is changing my life! I just want to THANK Morry for creating such a WONDERFUL program. I am literally crying as I type this because that little voice was stunting my personal growth. I had been a slave to it. While there are still kinks that need to be worked out (and they will be), I would say that I am overall extremely pleased with the program. Thank you so much Morry and I don't even know how to repay you! You have literally saved my life. There is definitely a light at the end of the tunnel. Just walking toward it in faith.
The job has offered to pay me as of Thursday!!!

Yesterday was a bummer...
I notice that I have been VERY disciplined with my schedule because I MAKE sure that I listen to this when I am supposed to. I have never been more disciplined about a program. I am just looking toward that light and cant wait to get there. I don't know if I could have got there on my own. I do commend myself because I do recognize the fact that there is a better me awaiting that I cant wait to finally let loose. I don't think I am too far from her either. The TRUE me. Brace yourselves!

Tweaking My Listening Schedule...
I am an INFP
- May be extremely sensitive to any kind of criticism
- May perceive criticism where none was intended
- May have skewed or unrealistic ideas about reality
- May be unable to acknowledge or hear anything that goes against their personal ideas and opinions
- May blame their problems on other people, seeing themselves as victims who are treated unfairly
- May have great anger, and show this anger with rash outpourings of bad temper
- May be unaware of appropriate social behavior
- May be oblivious to their personal appearance, or to appropriate dress
- May come across as eccentric, or perhaps even generally strange to others, without being aware of it
- May be unable to see or understand anyone else's point of view
- May value their own opinions and feelings far above others
- May be unaware of how their behavior affects others
- May be oblivious to other people's need
- May feel overwhelmed with tension and stress when someone expresses disagreement with the INFP, or disapproval of the INFP
- May develop strong judgments that are difficult to unseed against people who they perceive have been oppressive or suppressive to them
- Under great stress, may obsess about details that are unimportant to the big picture of things
- Under stress, may obsessively brood over a problem repeatedly
- May have unreasonable expectations of others
- May have difficulty maintaining close relationships, due to unreasonable expectations
- Highly creative, artistic and spiritual, they can produce wonderful works of art, music and literature. INFPs are natural artists. They will find great satisfaction if they encourage and develop their artistic abilities. That doesn't mean that an INFP has to be a famous writer or painter in order to be content. Simply the act of "creating" will be a fulfilling source of renewal and refreshment to the INFP. An INFP should allow himself or herself some artistic outlet, because it will add enrichment and positive energy to their life.
- They're more spiritually aware than most people, and are more in touch with their soul than others. Most INFPs have strong Faith. Those that don't may feel as if they're missing something important. An INFP should nourish their faith.
- INFPs are very aware of social injustice, and empathize with the underdog. Their empathy for the underdog and hyper-awareness of social injustice makes them extremely compassionate and nurturing towards disadvantaged members of our society. INFPs will feel most useful and fulfilled when they are fighting to help people who have been misfortunate in our society. They may be teachers, ministers, writers, counsellors or psychologists, but they will most likely all spend extra time trying to help people with special problems. An INFP can find a tremendous amount of satisfaction by enacting some kind of social change that will help the underdog.
- They're usually good listeners who genuinely want to hear about someone's problems, and genuinely want to help them. This makes them outstanding counsellors, and good friends. An INFP may find great satisfaction from volunteering as a counselor.
- They accept and value people as individuals, and are strongly egalitarian. They believe that an individual has the right to be themself, without having their attitudes and perspectives brought under scrutiny. Accordingly, they have a great deal of tolerance and acceptance dealing with people who might encounter negative judgment from society in general. They can see something positive in everyone. They believe in individuals. If they give themselves the opportunity, an INFP can become a much-needed source of self-esteem and confidence for people who cannot find it on their own. In this way, they can nurture a "sick soul" back to health.
- Usually deep and intelligent, they're able to grasp difficult concepts with relative ease. They usually do quite well academically, and will find that educating their minds nourishes their need to think deeply.
- They will have a great deal of insight into people's characters. They will quickly and thoroughly understand where a person is coming from by assessing their motives and feelings. These well-developed INFP individuals make outstanding psychologists (such as Isabel Briggs Myers herself) and counselors. They might also be great fiction writers, because they're able to develop very complex, real characters.
- They will quickly understand different situations, and quickly grasp new concepts. They will find that they're able to do anything that they put their mind to, although they may not find it personally satisfying. Things may seem to come easily to these INFPs. Although they're able to conquer many different kinds of tasks and situations, these INFPs will be happiest doing something that seems truly important to them. Although they may find that they can achieve the "mainstream" type of success with relative ease, they are not likely to find happiness along that path, unless they are living their lives with authenticity and depth.
- The INFP who augments their strong, internal value system (Introverted Feeling) with a well-developed intuitive way of perceiving the world (Extraverted iNtuition) can be a powerful force for social change. Their intense values and strong empathy for the underprivileged, combined with a reliable and deeply insightful understanding of the world that we live in, creates an individual with the power to make a difference (such as Mother Teresa - an INFP).
- Feed Your Strengths! Encourage your natural artistic abilities and creativity. Nourish your spirituality. Give yourself opportunities to help the needy or underprivileged.
- Face Your Weaknesses! Realize and accept that some traits are strengths and some are weaknesses. Facing and dealing with your weaknesses doesn't mean that you have to change who you are, it means that you want to be the best You possible. By facing your weaknesses, you are honoring your true self, rather than attacking yourself.
- Express Your Feelings. Don't let unexpressed emotions build up inside of you. If you have strong feelings, sort them out and express them, Don't let them build up inside you to the point where they become unmanageable!
- Listen to Everything. Try not to dismiss anything immediately. Let everything soak in for awhile, then apply judgment.
- Smile at Criticism. Remember that people will not always agree with you or understand you, even if they value you greatly. Try to see disagreement and criticism as an opportunity for growth. In fact, that is exactly what it is.
- Be Aware of Others. Remember that there are 15 other personality types out there who see things differently than you see them. Try to identify other people's types. Try to understand their perspectives.
- Be Accountable for Yourself. Remember that YOU have more control over your life than any other person has.
- Be Gentle in Your Expectations. You will always be disappointed with others if you expect too much of them. Being disappointed with another person is the best way to drive them away. Treat others with the same gentleness that you would like to be treated with.
- Assume the Best. Don't distress yourself by assuming the worst. Remember that a positive attitude often creates positive situations.
- When in Doubt, Ask Questions! Don't assume that the lack of feedback is the same thing as negative feedback. If you need feedback and don't have any, ask for it.

Week 2 Update...

Friday, August 28, 2009
Last Night.... I had to Write about this because...
So, he's on the phone with me and around 6:30 p.m. he suddenly turns mad.
I say "what?"
He says, "Im mad at you and this will be the last time you do this to me"
There have been times I had forgotten his birthday.... Yea Im terrible... I know. There was no excuse for this one.
So he says "Look at the calendar..." I look, and say "Shiiiiiiiitt!" Its August 27th. Our anniversary day. I wrote in this blog yesterday too. Doing everything BUT remembering my own anniversary.
"Come over here NOW" he says. I know he's pissed beyond pissed. So I dropped everything I was doing and headed over there.
When I get over there, he barely opens the door for me, and heads str8 to the bathroom. I walk in and see BEAUTIFUL multi colored roses, 2 cards, and a Victoria Secret Bag. Music is playing... Dave Hollister... I forget the title but the lyrics say, I love you but I hate you so much right now.... Yea.... Great.... I feel like garbage! Even more. He comes out the bathroom fro taking a shower, and all I could do is put my head down and just listen.
This is how I KNOW QMP is working.
When I am being scolded, I put up my defenses and sometimes and I argue instead of seeing the others point of view. Even when I am str8 up wrong, I will listen, feel bad and talk down on myself and make myself feel even worse when the other person just wants me to make the situation right. I'll say things like, Im the worst person ever, or in some way fall into a bout of self pity or brief self hate. I'll stare into space and just not come back down for awhiiile.
This is how yesterday was different. I felt like crap, but I listened. My defenses were completely down and I understood the situation. I didn't fall into a bout of self pity because I wanted to make the situation right. Even though he was really pissed there were times that I smiled and we laughed. I would NEVER do that. I felt calm and I felt ok with myself that I made the mistake. I wanted to change the situation and show him my appreciation. He always shows it for me, so I want to show him on a consistent basis that I appreciate him. My mom also. This has NEVER happened in an argument where I mess up royally. Where I make myself vulnerable to him and is completely understanding if he rejects me at the moment. I was ok with it. He had every right to be mad. I also have a fear of rejection, so this was ok with me. My pride was not present, but I was. I have a tendency also, to look away when I am being scolded, but I looked him dead in the eyes and saw his pain. I was accepting my criticism with open arms. He deserved me to look at him and empathize with him. When I say I look away a lot, I mean it, so this is big also. My mom will even tell you. Thats my way of not wanting to deal with the situation. But I wanted to. So even though he was mad, the air was light, and so was my spirit. I guess when he saw that, his spirit became light as well. We had a great time after that. I do need to show appreciation for those that are willing to bend over backwards for me. I love them dearly and without their support, I would be lost.
I am starting to genuinely see changes, and I cant wait to see what 1 month of QMP looks like.

So let me explain how I felt yesterday...
This combination was excellent. I felt happy throughout the day and my anxiety levels were down a lot. Sometimes in different situations when I go outside, my anxiety increases a lot. For example, I live in Brownsville section Brooklyn.... basically the hood. My family moved back to Brownsville after being in Prospect Heights for 10 years because of my crazy landlord. The first nine years of my life I lived in Brownsville, it was great, I loved it. But now, Brownsville isn't what it used to be. It got worse. Anywho, since I graduated from college and returned home, I have been OK with living here, but the guys are.... hungry WOLVES... and thats putting it lightly. Over here, you can't tell a guy a simple HELLO with out him trying to follow you and talk to you. Then if you hurt their ego in a subtle manner, they will curse you out. I have no time to be arguing with losers. So thats where the avoidant side of me comes in. I avoid eye contact, and all of that because they use that as an invitation to try to get to know you. I have a son and a SO and I am very happy. Besides you don't approach a woman with her son the way you would approach these fast chicks around here.... not everyone is the same. Anywho, one time I went to the park with my son so that he could ride his bike, (I didn't actually go IN the park, but I let him ride down a long strip of sidewalk next to the park) and I was HARASSED like crazy by guys INSIDE the park! My anxiety levels were all over the place... I was so pissed because I can't enjoy my time with my son without some knucklehead bothering us. So I vowed to not go to that park by myself...
Fast forwarding to yesterday, I went back to the same park with my sister, my son, and my baby cousin. Actually INSIDE this time. I enjoyed myself! It was a nice park with a nice playground and perfect for them to play in. My overall mood was happy despite the potential of crazies harassing me and my sister. I just didn't care, I was gonna enjoy this moment regardless of what. And I did. I didn't feel a bit of anxiety either.
The night before, I had to watch my baby cousin because his mother decided she was stressed out and just suddenly left. She just had a baby the day before. I normally would have had a fit. But I was ok with it, and my time wasn't spent on "When is she coming back?" rather than playing and enjoying the kids. Which I really did. Thats Quantum Mind Power working, and I know it because I would consider myself selfish... I don't like watching other people's kids because mine is a handful in itself. But I had a great time with the kids, gave both of them baths, fed both of them, when one was outta line, I made sure I put them back in check. So, it was cool. But I did it through a new lens. Im still a fairly new mom even though my son is three because I went away to finish school with no distractions while my mom watched him. So here I am a new full time mom after three years. I was full time before I left, but I left him when he was 3 months, and now he's three.... now that I look back, thats a lot of time to be away from your child. But here I am now, and I finished college. Our bond is tighter than ever. So being new to this mom thing, and babysitting someone else's child usually would overwhelm me. I would just complain. But not one time did I feel that way. Thats definitely the power of QMP.

The maker of Quantum Mind Power (Morry Zelcovitch) is a wonderful person. When I tell you its not all about the money with him, its absolutely is not all about the money as with other programs such as Holosync. Its an inexpensive program, whereas others are $500 dollars and up. He and Song do and excellent job at providing their customers with personalized support. Thats another reason why wholeheartedly I stand behind his product. I am a young black mother from Brooklyn, NY standing behind this product. I have absolutely no affiliation with QMP. So the main purpose of this blog is to follow along with me towards my journey to true happiness and my true self while using QMP. I hope you all will enjoy this blog and find out if this program is right for you.

Yesterday....
Good Night Sleep Well...
So I listened to this recording for the first time a couple of days ago. I went to bed at 3:30 am put on Good night sleep well, and I was pleasantly surprised. I woke up at 7 am on the dot, feeling refreshed as if I had an 8-hour sleep night. No lie! This stuff is no joke. I was refreshed, energized and ready to take on the world. Goodnight Sleep well, WILL allow you to sleep well for those who have trouble sleeping. This recording is HIGHLY recommended.
Ok so now down to business.

Following the herd is a sure way to mediocrity. Patti Wilson
Do you dare to be different?
This question might not be easy to answer, but how you answer it will make the difference between excellence and mediocrity.
Here are some more specific questions to help you check yourself and take actions:
1. Do you have a dream?
This is the first question you should ask yourself. I believe one of the main reasons people just follow the herd is they don’t have a dream. If there is nothing to pursue then why bother being different?
But a dream is what sets you above the average. Not having a dream means going to mediocrity on autopilot.
If your answer for this first question is “no” then start searching. I’m sure you have a dream deep inside of you. It might be something from your childhood. Maybe for long time you have been too busy to let the little voice of your dream be heard. This is the right time to heed that little voice.
If you have found your dream, the next question is whether or not you have the courage to follow it. Questions two through five will deal with that.
2. Are you doing what you want or what youshould?
There are often implicit “rules” about what someone should do in a particular situation. For example, when there are two job opportunities, the “rule” says that you should take the one with higher pay.
But is that what you want? I mean, does it help you achieve your dream? Maybe the job with less pay will help you achieve your dream while the one with higher pay doesn’t. Do you have the courage to be different and follow your dream?
3. Do you worry more about being loved thanbeing what you love?
Another reason why we don’t dare to be different is because we are trying to meet other people’s expectations. We often worry more about what other people say than about what matters to us. But living someone else’s life is a bad way to live your life. Why should you lose opportunity just because of what other people say?
4. Do you choose what is safe rather than what is right?
Maybe you are not trying to meet other people’s expectation. Maybe you just don’t want to take risks and therefore you choose to play safe. But this is exactlywhat many old people regret. When they were asked in a study about what they regretted most and what they would do differently, most of them answered: “I wish I had risked more.” Don’t let the same regret happen to you.
5. If you had only six months left to live, would you do what you are doing now?
You can only answer “yes” to this question if what you are doing matters to you. Doing what matters to you is a sure way to excellence since you will do it with all your heart. But you need the courage to be different and follow your heart. Do you have it? I hope your answer is yes. Life is too precious to be lived in mediocrity.

THE LAST QUESTION IS CRITICAL... I NEED TO DO A WEEK BY WEEK CHALLENGE AND JUST START DOING ME!!!! CUZ BABY IM WORTH IT!
The Post Below Me...
How Not to care about what others think of you (WikiHow)
Steps
- Figure out what you want to do, (eg. Audition for the school play)and what people's reactions to it will be. If it's a reaction you don't agree with, or is trying to get you to not do whatever you want to do, that isn't right.
- Think "Why do I care so much about what this person thinks of me?" If you want to do something, you should do it!!
- Whatever reason you care about what they think with you, turn it off. It should be as easy as that. If you are experiencing some difficulty, or it isn't as easy as I think, think of all the reasons why you shouldn't care what they think. (eg... they don't really even know you, if they don't like something about you, they're just going to have to deal with it or they're not really your friends, this is who you are, you like being funny or smart or whatever characteristics you have, etc...)
- Know that if that hasn't worked, or you would like to put your stoicism to the test, just go out and try doing whatever you want to do. This is the best solution, and I know it's hard, but this is what life is about, isn't it? Doing the things you love? If you won't do it now, when will you? It's time to stop being afraid and show people who you are!! Stop letting life pass you by doing nothing!
- Dress how you want, nobody should tell you how to do that. Unless you are planning on wearing yellow tights and underwear on top with no shirt.
- Listen to whatever music you want. Music is a big label with young people these days, and if you listen to what you want, then who cares? Music is music.
- Be happy, knowing you are more confident in yourself, and free to do whatever else it is you like doing, without being trapped in the cage called "peer pressure".
[edit]Tips
- Remember, judging people isn't good. People who judge people are very narrow-minded. So why care about what judgmental people think of you?
- Also, people can think what they want. People who think in a judging way don't just judge one person, they probably judge everyone in some way. It's not your problem if someone judges you. It's theirs.
- Also, remember, that you are not the only one that might be afraid of what others think of you. There are loads of people, who mostly think about themselves, and just...don't care about you.
- If people try to put you down, ignore them. Make comments in your mind to yourself to perk you up. Don't look like you notice them, either, or they'll know you're afraid.
[edit]Warnings
- By being yourself, you will get a lot of people who are either jealous, or genuinely think you're stupid, which is why it's important to not care what others think of you in the first place. So you can be yourself and not worry about...well, what anyone else thinks.
