So far, I do think it's a pretty accurate portrayal of how it has worked for me. It might not always work this way, but that’s something we each have to figure out for ourselves.

Another thing I'd like to point out, especially in stories that are constantly retold, is that anytime they've been embellished or "adjusted" in any way, part of the work lies in thinking "Is this the same way i told it last time?" and so you become more infatuated with retelling it the way you did last time as opposed to focusing on accuracy of the events in place.

Having worked with stress claims in the past I became passionate about helping people get rid of their limiting beliefs so they can live a life they want and deserve. That's where the neurolinguistic programming comes in. Any work by Robert Dilts, Richard Bandler or John Grinder will explain it more. Enjoy!! Hardly a genius!!

Is it nice to be a genius? I bet you like it:) Thanks for the kind words. I'll look up the book "Flow," but it may be well over my head. Glad you enjoyed the article. Any other recommendations? Wow!

This talks about the amount of information our Central Nervous System is capable of processing. It seems we can manage at most 7 bits of information such as differentiated sounds, or visual stimuli or nuances of emotion etc at any one time. Csikszentmihalyi concludes it is possible to process at most 126 bits of information per second. Basically what that means is we selectively delete, distort and generalise information so that we are not overloaded each second of every day. We delete, distort and generalise information based on our own filters, such as our values, memories, and beliefs (to name a few). So have a play - talk to a sibling or friend about an event you both went to as kids - I'll bet that you both have a different memory of that event! There's lots of information about this when referring to Neurolinguistic Programming which is the way we code and create our lives in our minds. By understanding this we can code and create a really compelling future by giving ourselves more choice and getting rid of limiting beliefs or experiences that we perceive as being negative. (I could go on for hours!!!) Thanks again for the article - loved it! Loved the article and reminds me of the book ‘Flow’ by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.

I bet that I have little or no real "memory" of 95% of what I see in our photo albums, at least before age 10. Absolutely, Luke.

What came to mind while I was reading the Post was also a case in point, I believe. If you think back to your first memories as a child. How clear is this memory in your mind. Was there possibly a photo (at a picnic) taken by a parent or family friend to back the memory up? If so do you really remember the moment (at the picnic) or could it be that the photo which has been in a family album since you were a baby makes you feel you remember it. Have family members told a story at gatherings about that particular picnic which makes you feel you should remember the moment, I mean there was a photo so why not. The truth is very difficult to define in this curcumstance and I can relate to this. Can you? This is all so true! What came to mind while I was reading the Post was also a case in point, I believe.
