Programming your mind for success | Carrie Green | TEDxManchester


Translator: Mohiedden Albendqji Checker: Hani Eldalees

I would like everyone to participate in my conversation today.

We will try a small test.

But to do that, I would like someone to come up here

He joins me on stage.

So please, is it a volunteer?

Do not go up together at the same time.

You can climb up and join me and Ted.

We can have tea together.

Anyone? Come on!

I went up, whoever wants to, I will not make a choice.

One must climb,

There are volunteers to help you get on stage.

Here is someone.

(clap)

It’s a path full of obstacles, I think,

But I promise you will not regret it.

(Laughter)

Poor person.

Thank you.

What is your name?

Volunteer: Ian.

Kari Green: Ian, thank you very much

I have something for you, I have earned £ 20.

Here, thank you very much, you can go, go and sit down.

Hot applause!

(clap)

So, my question to you:

Why did not you volunteer?

What prevented you from going here?

(Laughter)

I think this is probably due to one of the following reasons:

the fear.

Fear of going up here in front of nearly 1000 people.

This is very frightening.

Or perhaps the fear of the unknown, because she had no idea

What I would ask you to do.

Perhaps I thought,

“You may ask me to do something I can not do,

I will look like a fool. “

Or perhaps because of obstacles.

There are plenty of them in this room.

Maybe you’re back, and I thought,

“I am very far away and the place is dark, there are a lot of tables on my way;

I will probably fall on one of them like a fool,

I can not do that, because it is very difficult,

Someone else will have to volunteer instead of me. “

Or perhaps because of lack of motivation.

You may not want to bother yourself by moving up here.

But regardless of your reason, your decision started at the top here;

In your mind.

Because the moment I said, “Please, is it a volunteer?”

Ideas began to flood your mind.

That weak voice in your mind began to talk to you,

Perhaps he would say to some of you,

“My God, what will this girl make us do?

I do not want to go up there,

Please, do not let us do anything stupid. “

Perhaps for some others,

You were thinking,

Perhaps for those in front,

“My God, I do not want to do that, look away,

Avoid confluence of eyes, avoid confluence of eyes and so will not choose me! “

Perhaps for some of you the moment I said,

“Please, is it a volunteer?”

Perhaps, you were filled with fear, doubt and anxiety

From the idea of ​​actually climbing here,

From climbing up here in front of many people.

And then, for those of you who volunteered,

You were thinking of something completely different.

Maybe you were thinking of things like, “You want a volunteer,

I wonder what you’re going to do to us, it’s exciting, I’ll do it “

Or maybe some of you thought,

“My God is really embarrassing, no one is volunteering,

So I’ll have to go ahead and do it “

But for those who did not volunteer for you,

You’ve missed a chance to win £ 20.

But this experience is not about money.

But they prove the power of your mind.

The fact that what is going on in your head

Carries a great impact on the actions you do,

The decisions you make, and the things you test.

Not only in such ridiculous situations,

When people miss wonderful opportunities.

People are wasting a lot of incredible opportunities all the time.

Because of what is going on in your minds,

Because they make bad decisions indicating a bad psychological state.

As you know, self-limiting thoughts such as:

“I can not do that”,

“I’m not good enough”

Or, “I do not have money or time.”

Or maybe you think,

“I will not bother myself; I will do it tomorrow.”

But then, you will never,

So these wonderful ideas, these wonderful opportunities

They remain trapped inside, and do nothing at all.

This is precisely what happened to me several years ago.

In the summer of 2005, I had finished my studies at

First year of law at the University of Birmingham.

I did not have money, and I wondered, what would I do?

So I started looking for work,

During my research I found nothing attractive.

So I looked for more opportunities,

In the end I found this opportunity.

It started my own company to unlock the mobile lock

Which means that, if you have a mobile

It was locked on a certain network,

I wanted to travel to Australia

Use an Australian SIM card,

You can come to the site and unlock your phone.

There were a few enormous problems;

First, I did not know much about mobiles

More than they make calls and send messages,

Not to mention unlocking the mobile phones.

I had no idea how to build an online business.

But the other chance was to sell sweets at Cirque du Soleil.

I had two choices: selling sweets in the circus,

Or started my own business.

So, I chose the idea of ​​starting my own business,

It seemed to me that it was more risky.

So, I started, and realized very quickly,

That when you have no evidence of what you are doing,

The only thing you can do is ask for help, and that’s what you’ve done.

I asked for help and within a few weeks,

Probably formed the worst online site.

Google AdWords was discovered as a way to bring visitors to the site,

Using a credit card and spending £ 30 a day,

Get out of my work.

Several years later, when I was not studying for my degree,

I was learning how to build this business;

I read the books,

You listen to audio programs,

In my last year, I went back to night school

Learn more about web development.

She graduated in 2007 with a wonderful degree

And the work was excellent.

I decided to be a business leader

It would be more fun than being a lawyer.

So I set a great goal and decided to build,

– Make the work global –

Building a successful global business.

So, we signed up with a new provider in America

Which virtually unlocks any mobile in the world.

We improved the site, and expanded the team,

Much improved in online marketing,

Within a few years, we were receiving

More than 100,000 site visits per month.

And we sell thousands and thousands of quills every month,

My goal was to build a successful global business.

But there was a big problem.

I was miserable.

I ran the work mainly from my office at home,

Where I was staying in an apartment; my second bedroom was turned into an office.

I felt completely alone, completely isolated and lost.

It’s a feeling I think many people are testing

But many do not.

And I broke up.

I started to doubt everything and started thinking about questions like:

What do I do?

A target of all this?

The more I think about these questions, the more puzzled I am.

The more I get confused,

The negative thoughts that have been confusing my mind,

The more I doubt everything, the anxiety about everything,

And just questioning everything.

As the months passed, my passivity increased,

I grew more self-defeating,

A positive person who is taking advantage of the opportunities that you once had,

Literally disappeared.

I became completely negative and shattered for myself.

I was creating ideas,

I dropped it, and convinced myself not to do it.

In 2010 I felt like I was in total despair.

So I packed my bags and traveled to Australia

In the hope that you will come to me as a prophecy.

I spent three months traveling within Australia, not a prophecy,

I said to myself: What should I do?

So I went back to the UK, and worse than before,

Because all my problems were waiting for me,

The atmosphere was bad.

I said to myself, “What am I going to do?”

So over the next few months, I found myself suffocating with my problems.

Learn when you feel that you can not get rid of these uncertainties

One such concern was that I was focusing on it.

I had ideas, and I found opportunities,

I convinced myself not to do it, thinking I could not do it.

Finally in 2011, I knew the mistake that I had made.

I think I was wrong for two main reasons:

I: Yes, I wanted to be successful,

Quite frankly,

Does not everyone in this room want to be successful?

But unlocking the mobile phones was not my dream.

At the time, I was reading a book called “The E-Myth” by Michael Gerber,

In that book, there is a chapter on the primary objectives.

Says the writer: imagine that the intervention of a room;

Sitting in this room, your friends and family,

As you walk to the middle of the room, you see a box.

When you reach the first room you realize that you are inside the box,

And it is your funeral.

“The things you want people to say about you,” he says

About the kind of life you’ve lived,

About who you are,

What kind of things did you do? “

I realized that I had no idea.

So no wonder I did not feel I was far from the right path.

I have never been in my life on the right track

The second reason for my mistake,

Because of what was going on at the top here; what was going on in my mind.

All those doubts, all those fears, all those self limiting beliefs.

I had an old saying of Anthony Robbins saying,

“Select your destiny with your choices, choose now, choose well.”

I realized that I was responsible for my unhappiness;

I was responsible for the fact that I hung in the routine.

I remember looking at my life and thinking I wake up every day

I focus on my problems.

I wake up every day and devote a lot of focus and attention

For all those bad thoughts, doubts and fears.

The thoughts come to me and contradict them,

I prevent myself from doing anything.

I realized that if I wanted to live a distinguished life

And achieve special things – and I did it –

I have to adjust my mind on my body.

I realized that I had to decide what I wanted to achieve;

It was not required to achieve that, nothing meant it to me.

I had to know the kind of person I wanted to be,

to achieve that.

Therefore, I had to be mentally programmed to do so.

I had to plan my mind for success.

This is exactly what I did in the end,

The “mission of success” began.

I started thinking about it first: What do I really want?

So I looked at my life and thought, “I love being a business leader,

I like to bring ideas and turn them into reality

It’s very fun. “

And then I looked at my problems and I thought,

“I feel lonely and lost as a business leader.”

I looked at them from a different point of view.

Instead of feeling bad about it I thought, “What can I do?

There must be others in my position? “

So I came up with the idea of ​​forming a businesswomen’s association,

That was a very formal sign.

And I was doing it. I had a tremendous idea,

I will form a global network

Composed of thousands of women around the world

And help inspire and communicate with them

And help to force them to build successful businesses.

But I had no idea how to do it.

Then I said to myself, “Well, I must adjust my mind to do it.”

So I began to become conscious

For the things I think about daily,

And when I caught myself thinking something like,

“Carrie, who will visit this site?

Who is Ante to give advice to others?

This nonsense, this is a bad idea,

You will not be able to do this. “

Whenever I catch myself saying such things, I stop myself,

I realized I had the power to control my thoughts

Instead of letting them control me.

I knew I could stop myself thinking about things like that.

I did so,

Changed the negative thoughts disturbing not useful,

And asked them to remain silent,

And replaced by positive ideas gave me strength,

She actually helped me reach my goal.

I began to listen also to the guided imagery,

For the mental programming of the internal success.

I began to love doing the visualization

I imagine clearly what I want to achieve, and seeing that happen,

And then a sense of it, as if it were speaking to me now,

As do senior athletes.

It became clear in my mind what I would like to do,

Since then my life has changed completely.

Built one of the largest online communication groups for business leaders,

With more than 100,000 women.

And then Khatratli this crazy idea is the launch of a digital magazine,

Which has become the fastest growing digital magazine for business leaders.

When I started it, I came to Amani’s list in my mind

To all the people I want to be on the cover;

Most well-known writers and entrepreneurs are very successful.

I had no idea how to do it, but I was convinced it was happening.

And then put their faces on the front cover models of the magazine,

Printed and hung on my target board,

And imagine it on the front cover;

I imagined how I would feel at that moment

I will send an email to my network.

I will say to them, “Hello everyone,

This person is on the front cover of this month, it’s exciting! “

I had a very clear picture of what I wanted to do.

People will come to me and say,

“How will you be able to do this?”

“I do not know, but I will.”

This has already been achieved,

Then I thought,

“What other crazy goals can I achieve?

What other things are possible? “

So I set other crazy targets for myself.

You like, “I would go to Buckingham Palace.

I would like to go to the house of nobles, I would like to speak in the House of Commons. “

I set other crazy goals for myself.

All of them have been achieved in the past year.

I realized that if I could make my mind confident,

I can make something happen,

Somehow I can figure out the way, and always managed it.

Success is not an accident.

Living a wonderful life is not a coincidence.

You must do this on purpose.

It starts by knowing exactly what you want to achieve,

And knowledge did not want to achieve,

Know what kind of person you should become to achieve this,

And then programming your mind to achieve it.

Because you have one life in which you have to achieve everything,

You will check it out, so you must act accordingly

Thank you so much.
