USING THE
WHOLE BRAIN
Some people will follow their minds without listening
to their hearts, and others will follow their hearts
without listening to their minds.
USING WHOLE BRAIN
 USING WHOLE BRAIN

• People use both sides of brain but have a

dominant side.
• Ideally, good crossover between both sides
of brain according to situation.
• Most people remain in the "comfort
zone” of their dominant side of brain.
 USING WHOLE BRAIN

• We live in a primarily left brain-

dominant world.
• Quality of our 1st creation is
significantly impacted by the
ability to use right brain capacity.

Unplanned experiences can

knock us from left brain
environment to the right brain
one.

Alternatively, use Proactivity and
imagination to create rich
visualisations.
Involve as many senses as possible.
 USING WHOLE BRAIN

AFFIRMATION &
VISUALISATION
Use right brain to integrate your
Personal Mission Statement into
your life.
Use “AFFIRMATION” – a guideline
– as a help.
 USING WHOLE BRAIN

AFFIRMATION &
VISUALISATION
A good affirmation has 5 basic
ingredients – personal, positive,
present tense, visual and
emotional.
 USING WHOLE BRAIN

AFFIRMATION &
VISUALISATION
I (personal) am (present) a
good (positive) student
who rises to (visual)
difficulties with
enthusiasm (emotional).
 USING WHOLE BRAIN

AFFIRMATION &
VISUALISATION
Such Affirmations based on personal
principles can be used to visualise
where we want to be; to relax us and
to program our responses creatively.
ROLES & GOALS
It’s better to be at the bottom of the
ladder you want to climb than at the top
of the one you don’t.
 ROLES AND GOALS

• Writing a Mission Statement

distils, crystalizes, and
clarifies thoughts.
• It helps to break the whole
into parts
 ROLES AND GOALS

• We all have different roles in

our lives.
• Have a broad view of your life -
about community, politics,
public service, religion,
volunteering, etc.
 ROLES AND GOALS

Mission statement becomes

balanced and easier to work with,
if broken into specific role areas
of your life and the goals you
want to accomplish in each area.
 ROLES AND GOALS

• Review frequently to keep all

roles in focus.
• Visualise your long term
goals for each role.
 ROLES AND GOALS

Effective goals focus on

Results rather than
Activity.
