Mindset - by the star

Stanford psychologist Carol Dweck's groundbreaking research on mindsets reveals that the beliefs we hold about our own abilities and intelligence are among the most powerful drivers of our success and happiness. Dweck posits that "the view you adopt for yourself profoundly affects the way you live your life". These beliefs generally fall into one of two categories: Fixed Mindset: The belief that intelligence, talent, and abilities are static, innate traits. A person with a fixed mindset is consumed with the goal of proving their inherent worth. They tend to shy away from challenges because failure would imply a lack of ability. They see effort as a sign of weakness—if you were truly smart, you wouldn't have to try so hard. Consequently, setbacks are seen as catastrophic events that define their identity, and they often ignore or become defensive in the face of constructive feedback. Growth Mindset: The belief that abilities can be developed through dedication...

Why Are Great Storytellers Effective at Establishing Connections? People who easily connect with others are often great storytellers. This is because stories speak directly to a person's emotions and subconscious mind. Builds Trust and Empathy: When a person shares a personal experience, they show their vulnerability, which paves the way for trust. The listener feels empathy because they put themselves in the storyteller's situation. This is the foundation of a strong connection. Simplifies Complex Ideas: Stories can make complex ideas simple and easy to remember. Instead of providing data or statistics, a story provides context and emotional weight. Leaves a Lasting Impact: Our brains remember stories better than lists of facts. The emotion attached to the story (joy, sadness, inspiration) is what leaves a mark on the mind. How Does the Subconscious Mind Work in This Process? "That's how the subconscious works." The subconscious mind is like a vast ware...

 The statement, "IT IS destined that as you age, your body will get weaker and weaker. But not the mind. The mind should not regress along with the weakening of the body. Because our mind is Directly Connected to the Soul and Spirit," contains a profound observation about the aging process and the distinction between the body's decline and the mind's potential. This is a perspective supported by new scientific discoveries and has deep roots in philosophical and spiritual traditions. The Biological Reality of the Body's Aging According to science, it is undeniable that the human body experiences decline as it ages. This process, called senescence, involves the gradual deterioration of cell and organ function. Common effects of aging on the body include a decrease in muscle strength, weakening of bones, a slower metabolism, and an increased risk for various diseases. This is a natural part of the life cycle. The Mind that Continues to Develop On the other hand, ...

  Your Personality Astrosignature is revealed by the imprints of the planets in your NATAL Chart.  The NATAL CHART is a projection of " Personality Potential " and can be compared to a "Blueprint" of a building that is being planned for construction. At different stages of development while the building is being built, certain additions, deletions and/or other changes may become desirable (or even necessary) and the original blueprint may be modified to accommodate those changes. And so it is with your personality as indicated by your NATAL Chart. During the "building" of your life, your personality is being developed, and the imprints of the personality blueprint are being modified and/or changed, both by your own choices and by circumstances beyond your control. The progression of the planets as they continue their respective orbits into different signs and houses, and the aspects they form, are beyond our control. But we DO have some control over how we...

  🤔 🤔 🤔... Yes, I agree that our brain adapts easily to automation. When you try something new, the brain can easily create a systematic approach to the point that you no longer notice what you're doing because you're so used to it. But the previously automated task gets forgotten and is truly erased. But until now, it's still a mystery to me why, when it comes to meditation, the tongue [mind] can't seem to learn it. I have been practicing breathing exercises for a long time, but I feel that you still need to force it even if you've been practicing for a while, and more often you forget it, so you can't create a routine. ANSWER ACCORDING TO WHAT IS WRITTEN IN THE STAR: That's a great point, and it's one of the most common questions and frustrations for beginners and even long-time meditators. You are correct in your observation: our brain is excellent at automating tasks, but why does automation seem elusive when it comes to meditation? The answer lie...
