Hi CiteHRites,
I thought of discussing with you the importance of Positive Auto Suggestion and self belief. Auto suggestion in scientific terminology is called auto hypnosis. Meaning Hypnosis induced by yourself. In simple terms it is the effect of positive or negative thoughts and beliefs on oneself. An example of positive auto suggestion is India’s angry young fast bowler Sreesanth making gestures, and talking to himself before every delivery he bowls. Auto suggestion is the process of transforming thoughts into beliefs.
While I write this article I am suggesting myself that this article would be read by many, and it will help them in their day to day life. It is the same technique which is helping me carve the success path I always wish for. I tried to analyze the process of changing thoughts to beliefs.
The process of Positive Auto Suggestion starts after we have a target in mind. I keep suggesting to my unit when it comes to meeting targets. The first step to meet your targets is to believe you will meet them. How does it really help? Let’s try and find out…
This a short story of my own. I graduated with a degree in Hospitality from IHM Delhi. All raring to get into a good Hotel and work with the F & B Service department. I aimed to have a restaurant of my own some day. I had a minor squint, which my family though of having rectified. Unfortunately the surgeon goofed up and it resulted in some internal tissue growth which prevented my eye to open up completely. This was the turning point in my life. I could not make it through to any hotel. I lost some jobs which were offered to me before the surgery as well. I cribbed to my Mother asking her “why me”? I received a one line answer “It’s all for the best Son, Wait and watch; believe in the almighty”
I sat home frustrated and finally opted out for a BPO. I had my mother’s words in my mind “its all for the Best” I set myself a target. To prove myself against all odds, and make her statement true. “It is all for the best” I do not remember how or through whom I inculcated this habit but it was here where I first started using this method. I decided to give my best in what ever I do. It took me a lot of time understanding the technical aspects of the process I was working in. However it was again, “Auto Suggestion” which kept me going. I kept bombarding myself with the same thought, convincing myself that I am the best. I reasoned with myself for all the qualities required. A constant self- affirmation converted my thought of being number one to a belief. I enhanced my positives and worked on my negatives. And finally I was there. Though most of my family and friends criticized BPO’s my self belief helped me gain a lot there. I owe a lot to what I have learnt to the culture and professionalism that Bpo’s carry.
Over a couple of months I was already eligible for the IJP’s held for the company. It was for a junior level. For some reason I failed to hit the target here. They found a better suited and experienced person for the same post. I accepted it, but did not loose my belief of being the best. The constant self- affirmation not only makes me responsible and conscious but also gives me the confidence and aggression to go for what I crave.
One of my friends offered me a Business Opportunity in the Hotel Business. This was a break through back to where I always wanted to be. I shifted base to Delhi. Not going into the technicalities, however due to some personal hiccups we could not sustain in the business for long.
Now here is the situation; taking a bold decision of dropping your well settled job for a business, traveling cities and then failing…. Yes I was disappointed. The thought of the reactions of my social circle haunted me. It was time where I used the tool yet again. I gathered my thoughts, bombarded my self with thoughts of fighting this situation out. I joined another BPO. Had a goal in my mind, to regain what I had lost. It was again auto suggestion which helped me excel and get promoted in a span of 8 months, and to a level higher then what I had applied for before.
The self belief I had created where in I believed there is much more to BPO’s then what people think help me absorb many managerial skills which are gained after years of experience. I was picked up in the 10 member core team for ISO 9001-200- certification and then a QMS coordinator. In a span of a year and a half since I stepped into the corporate world I was placed in a respectable position.
Today, I own a HR Recruitment and Consultancy firm at a very young age. In addition to this I have the help and Support of a very experienced Man in this Business. Each and every employee of mine practices this method. It has proved to be a fool proof method for me. Be it on the professional front or the personal front.
“Life is like a Video Game, it’s no fun without the tough turns to thrill…” It was because of my self belief created through Auto Suggestion I feel I am moving towards what I crave for. It makes me Conscious of What I have to achieve. The importance and urge created by this self hypnosis automatically enable us to stretch our limits and eventually get there. I know I have a long way to go and it is just the beginning, and I am sure to grab what I crave for. Though my field has changed, I will someday have a restaurant of my own. For everyone reading this article, every one is blessed with an angel. The only way of asking him to help is talk to your own self.
