From the author: Dmitry Kovrigin, Probably each of us has a favorite tool hidden in the pantry of our subconscious - a rake. Stepping on them over and over again, we fall into mental traps - situations that force us to fall out of the usual flow of time. It is because of them that we waste our energy in vain, cannot enjoy life and lose energy without achieving results. Mental traps are an abyss that sucks up our time without creating any value. We try to avoid our mental rake, but without knowing them in person, this is very difficult to do. Professor Andre Kukla introduces the reader to eleven points that allow you to revise your thoughts. Let's consider them in the order and with the names proposed by the author himself.1. Perseverance Falling into the first of the traps, we continue to move along the established rut, realizing or not that we have not experienced the joy of moving for a long time. We persist in doing something that no longer brings us pleasure or the desired result. Motion by inertia is the main feature of this trap.2. Amplification Often the reason for failure is insufficient effort, a small amount of effort. But one of the mental traps is just the opposite: an excessive desire for perfection. The secret is to achieve the goal with the optimal amount of effort and without wasting unnecessary resources. It is worth paying tribute to the ubiquitous Pareto law: only 20% of our efforts provide 80% of the result, the remaining 80% of efforts provide only 20% of the impact.3. Fixation The fixation trap is like waiting for “manna from heaven.” We do not begin to develop a new plan to move towards the goal, because we are waiting for a miracle (permission, call, unprecedented inspiration, etc.).4. Reversion It happens that a person fails. Time passes, but this problem does not go away. This is a sure sign of reversion - the fourth of the mental traps. It is the temporary opposite of the previous trap. If fixation forces us to work tirelessly in order to bring the future closer (it has just frozen and is not moving in our direction), then reversion is the same as waving our fists after a fight. The only way out is to accept the situation as it is.5. Anticipation We get caught in the trap of anticipation when we start doing something earlier than we should. By creating vigorous activity in a place where we could later work at a measured pace, we drive ourselves into trying to do everything at once.6. Resistance Everyone is familiar with this insidious “just a little more”, it is also “a little more” or “just a little more”. Resistance overtakes us when we close our eyes to circumstances that clearly call for certain actions. We delay the moment of truth as much as we can, not wanting to pick up the phone or open the door “until the last minute,” get up when the alarm rings, or do something else, but equally inevitable.7. Procrastination Having fallen into the mental trap of procrastination, a person knows exactly what needs to be done, but cannot begin to implement his plan. In this case, we begin to come up with a whole series of “urgent” tasks that must be completed before we have to start performing unpleasant duties.8. SeparationSeparation prevents us from efficiently completing what we set out to do, distracting our attention to other points. So, rest is rest, and work is work. One thing just interferes with the other, not allowing you to do everything at once and well.9. AccelerationThe reflection of tightening is the acceleration trap. We rush headlong towards business at a speed that is as enormous as it is completely inappropriate. Salvador Dali was right when he said that we are all far from perfection. Therefore, you should not rush pointlessly, accustoming yourself to vanity.10. RegulationWhen thinking about something, we choose one of two directions: think descriptively or think prescriptively. In the first case, we only emphasize the actual presence of certain properties of the object (for example, the door is open, there is dust on the shelf, etc.), in the second, we make a useless prescription.
