< < O P I N I O N S > >

Usually, we use this word all the time speaking with friends, at the work, discussing, defending our arguments....But....Have you thought about this fact? Have you thought about how many unconscious meanings content this word?. Probably not. In this new post I want to invite you to call you into question....

Wikipedia definition; ... opinion is a belief about matters commonly considered to be subjective, i.e., it is based on that which is less than absolutely certain, and is the result of emotion or interpretation of facts. An opinion may be supported by an argument, although people may draw opposing opinions from the same set of facts. Opinions rarely change without new arguments being presented....

Please think about what mean opinion for you and then, continue reading.



People associate this fact like a final point. A final conclusion about all facts in a determinate situation. It´s like close a question, topic or proposition in his life. We dont have to think more about it, we have our opinion. It´s like close a book or stay in a fortress ready to defends from our enemies.


Opinions turn off our curiosity switch. Create an opinion mean finish a mental process. Why to continue looking for an answer when you have found your own one?. Maybe it's more comfortable create a definitive answer than a permanent question. In Spain we call this popular ill  like <<Opinionitis>>. I dont know how call it in english.

Remove opinionitis in your life means avoid our necessity to have reason all the time. Meaning separate ego and ideas. It Means allow his evolution or his final. It Means trust in our mental process to recognise and live with ambiguity and complexity.


In a popular series, Star Trek, Mr. Spock said " Change is the essencial process of our existence". There we go. It´s a little sentece but it´s a big true, if people could understand this item our lives would be healthies than now are. All we understand like real or permanent is in constant change.



Our body create 2,5 millions of red cells per second, who live like 120 days. Most of rest cells die to be sustitute for the news one at the same time. According this reasoning we are not the same person than we were 3 o 4 months ago.
Really, you are not the same people than you were 2 seconds before. Millions of your brains cells have changed after read this post, this new information (like each second of  all experiences and information in our life) have altered your brains quimics conexions, brains cells composition, signals between yours neurons
and between your neurons and the rest of body´s cells.

From this corner I propose you some tips to change your relationship with opinions:
- Don´t be possess for your opinions.
- Replace opinion (expression) for other like, from my point of view, my impression, under my uderstanding, how I can see...
- All we consider real, is always changing.

In my opinion, little details are the most imporant thing. Laughter, is a natural and  sometimes an unappreciated fact, but is one of the more beutiful gesture that we can do, and it´s a wonderful sound as well.

CONCEPTION

Laughter show our most spontaneus mood, open ourself a little more to our environment and demonstrate important personality aspects. However on some occasions it may express other emotions, such as embarrassment, apology or confusion.
It´s non verbal communication fact, expressed through facial gestures.      it´s an innate gesture, we dont need to learn it. Even children born knowing how to do it. Laughter is a very important facet in relationship, through our smile, we can trasmit our friendliness, hospitality and create a perfect emotional atmosphere.
ORIGIN

- Physical:  It´s sensory stimulation,  like tickling for example.
- Intellenctual:  It´s sense of humor. Brain stimulation. "Brain and face gestures conexion"
- Emotional: it´s discovered in 1996, when Giacomo Rizzolatti (Parma University) revolutionize the           neuroscience field.  (Mirror Neurons)  (Brief and very interesting links).

    BENEFITS

- Positivity emotions.
- Put off concern. It´s impossible laughter and be worry at the same time.
- Pleasure sensation.
- Engagement. Establishing specials emotions with your laughter colleagues.
- Sport. 1 Shout of laughter move around 400 muscles.
- Remove toxic substances.
- Antiestres.
- Natural Analgesic.
- Lungs Oxygenate.


TECHNIQUE

- Hinduism: It´s a meditation practice, consist to  3 hours laughing per   day during 9 days. They think that 1hour smiling is more beneficial than 4 hours practicing yoga
- Budism: It´s a technique consistent laughter while walking. Some of them think about this practice is more beneficial than meditation is.
- Occidental: "Laughter Teraphy" (Spanish - Risoterapia) , use to create positive synergies.




From this Corner I can see how our culture identify seriously with responsability and smiling with irresponsible, even in a professional environment jokes could be identify like an unprofessional fact. I disagree this perception, it´s a cultural aspect that young people have to change.
Laughter is simple and make our life easier. It´s very imporant in our professional and personal life.
PLEASE, Dont forget laughter today. 
I have a post in my door room, where I have wrotte...                           "A day without laughter is a day wasted" Charlie Chaplin.

WHAT MEANS LAUGHTER FOR YOU?
HOW IMPORTANT IS LAUGHTER FOR YOU?

Express and communicate. Person need it to live. Everything we do communicate, our facts, emotions, corporal gestures, thinking, voice...
It´s impressive how many information can we express unconsciously.

Engagement is a special communication feel between two person or group of person. 
It´s a comfortable and security  sensation between receptor and transmitter. 
It´s a feeling where both are connecting through contact eyes, emotions and corporal gestures. 
When you get it, you can feel really good and satisfied.
Definitely, It´s a concept  relational with emotional intelligence  and non verbal comunication.

I have to comments  the  Dr. Albert Mehrabian experiments about comunication.
He determined that when two people communicate transfering emotions, we can share the comunication in three areas.

-->7% is verbal impact. 
It´s exactly word that we say. 

-->38% is paralinguistic impact.
How we say it? Voice tone, pauses, intonation, rhythm...

-->55% Non verbal comunication.
What our body are  communicating? Contact eyes, legs position, hands movements,...


It´s Amazing ! ! !  93% of our communication it´s not what we say, it´s how we say it.  it´s engagement. 

From this corner I can see how important  Engagement tools are in the Social world as well as in the business world. 
At the moment I am working in Caja Rural de Granada ( Andalusian´s Bank), I have met a new group of friends and partners, they are a very nice and interesting persons. They are a new group as well as a new experience in my life, and is curious how you can see different personalities and different behavior style, and you can feel how all of them are nice people but you can´t engagement 100% with everybody. It´s normal, each one is different. It´s a nice experience to check what engagement is.
Normally, person connect with people with the same personality, concerns, culturals background, life experiences... In my opinion, you can learn and force engagement skills to conect with persons but engagement is a natural facts, is part of our life process and it´s part of your personality. 
Summarizing, You cant choose or force to connect with somebody, your subconscious will choose for you.




I want to finish my post with some questions for you: 
What do you think? Can we learn how to get engagement? or Each one has is own predefined engagement skills?
Have you feel inmediatly engagement with somebody?

HOW GET OUR BUSINESS/ECONOMIC DREAMS?


Everyone have thought about to become millionaire anytime in his life.
Thinking about how many countries could you visit, how many luxury cars could you drive, etc, etc....
Most people imagine that is like a dream, or something impossible, something too big for them....

How could we reach our business/economic dreams?
A big mistake is thinking about money and success will fall from sky, it´s a luck fact... Incorrect.
It´s possible to achieve, but you have to strive in your goals direction, fall and get up many times, to be persistent, to think that it deserve your efforts, and of course to believe you will be lucky.

I have found some interesting advices to get Business and economic success.

To thinking great.
It´s a psychological exercise. You have to believe in yourself, imagine you can get whatever you want.
Nobody can be more than he think about himself.

To persist.
When you try something new, anything newfangled you can fall, it´s an option, but it´s very important to get up and try again till get your goals.

To solve and to find an human desire and cover it.
You have to find what people need and discover how cover it, constantly.
People will buy you something than they need, they will pay you if you give them something value.

Financial Intelligence.
To be smart with money. You have to deal your money, come upon business oportunities and to be the first one in your field.
Save up and invest in profitable commercial enterprise.

Own Business.
The 95% world wealth is concetrate in 5% people. It´s 5% people are economic powerfull because they are the owner.

Technology.
Use your technology opportunities. Actually, young people with  technologic knowledge are creating interesting business models and prospering.
Internet, is the way.


What are you waiting for? Let´s go.
Start as soon as possible. Create ideas. Mark your goals as well as the path to achieve them. Make contacts. Learning falling down and getting up. Follow your bound.
