Sometimes you’ll stumble across a blog post that completely captures your attention and sparks your mind anew. As I was surfing del.icio.us, I came across “Train Your Eyes to See Color, Again.” With a title like that, I had to click on it and see what it was about. Well, it’s a new take on focusing on the good that you should desire rather than the bad that you dislike. Here’s an excerpt:
Have you ever been particularly annoyed by a person or situation? The more we complain about it, the more we notice it. The more we notice it, the worse it becomes. The next time we interact with that person or situation, we almost expect to be annoyed and thus subconsciously look for those small triggers that’ll make us annoyed.
In a similar example of an opposite scenario: Have you ever shopped for a particular kind of car which you’ve never noticed before? For example, a black SmartCar or a silver Toyota Prius. And suddenly, you see them everywhere? Similarly, have you shopped for a particular piece of clothing, let’s say a blazer style jacket for the spring, and suddenly you notice them everywhere?
From top to bottom, it’s an excellent read. Although the attention span of the typical internet user is probably horrible (mine included!), it’s a definitely worth taking a read. I’m glad I came across it.
