You have listened to them since your childhood. You grew up repeating them as if they were mantras. They became responses from those closest to you when the occasion allowed. Yes, They are. Popular sayings have not returned because they were always there.
It is well known by those who enter the world of personal development that there are a number of limiting beliefs. But what about the language? Go if it limits us!
Proof of this would be NLP or Neuro-Linguistic Programming. If you don't know what it is about, I recommend that when you finish reading me, Google it. Then you will see the great influence of words in our mind Y behaviour.
And in what way can language limit us? Well, of many, and to show you I thought it might be a good idea to make a compilation of popular sayings and sayings "typical Spanish" and strip them for you.
We are going to clarify these popular sayings one by one to discover together what message they really hide. We will discover what seeds they have left in our subconscious mind, Will you accompany me?.
They will have told you many times. When you got a job that was not very well paid or in a position that you were not passionate about. That moment when you found a partner and did not feel in love. That time you had the chance to go on vacation "by the side" to your friend's town and you didn't plan that amazing getaway that you really wanted.
Exactly, this seemingly innocent popular saying has made us conformists. Be careful, I'm not saying that you have to despise what you have, you have to be grateful if. But you also have to aspire. In short, this little phrase is a real dream killer or ambition killer, rather.
This was very common to hear when we were children, right? You had to be quiet, observe and not object. We had to be obedient and submissive, without questioning anything. There is no doubt that these popular sayings limit the freedom of expression of every mortal.
There is nothing more favorable for him growth of someone who can express themselves. Give voice to your emotions Y thoughts. Communicate what is inside. You have to see what unhealthy sayings he hears!
Ehm… Really? It may be true in practice. In summer, a good tree in the middle of an arid road can become an oasis. But normally they did not say it with that connotation, but rather, they referred to the companies.
If you got close to successful people, their success would belong to you. That is what they have made us understand at least. Then in practice it is far from reality.
Success is achieved with own merits, with effort and perseverance. Our companies should not be chosen for convenience. If you wait for someone to come and solve your life, wait seated. But look for a good shade so you don't scorch while doing it!!
And that's how they made us believe that this toxic relationship we had was worth it. Please don't ever believe this prehistoric saying.
Who loves you does not make you cry. It makes you laugh, it makes you dream, it makes you moan or it makes you enjoy. This phrase preaches that love is painful, when precisely, it is the most pleasant that exists in the world.
In my opinion, it is no longer that this popular saying is limiting, it even borders on the bizarre. Maybe it was a sanity pill for the people who were battered by their parents, ideal to give them a good argument.
Fortunately, today it does not serve as an excuse. We banish this popular saying when we realize that love is not equal to pain.
What a fabric, these two could not be clearer. Revenge, that's what they cry out for. It seems that when they became fashionable, that of the account adjustments was the law of the day.
I don't know, the fact is that they seem to me to be very mafia and that, I have listened to them since I was a child. What need do we have to hold a grudge and wait our turn to retaliate? In my opinion, none. If something hurt you, accept it, heal it and forgive.
Life takes care of everything, you do not want to be a judge and punish anyone, it will not help you. I hope these two popular sayings will soon go down in history.
You have to see how much distrust it is breathed in these two popular sayings. You could say that they are made to create hermits.
In this case, the limitation is social. They indicate that you cannot trust anyone, that the world is a hostile place where anyone can harm you. Fear, fear and more fear. Was necessary? We are social animals. You have to live positively. A little companionship would not have hurt us in our childhood.
Really, Why so much individualism?. Much better to cooperate! Let's banish both popular sayings from our minds before they turn us into selfish loners..
The passage of time helps but does not cure everything. Leave it to a measure like time great responsibility to heal our wounds I find it quite implausible.
After all, time We invented it to account, not to cure. Only we ourselves can heal.
It is not going to cure us to go shopping, or on vacation, or to meet another person (with that "one nail takes out another nail" as the saying goes). Not chocolate ice cream, not a pet, far from it, time.
Passivity is what this phrase offers to make us believe that everything will be solved. And well, it can be solved, of course it can, but in most cases it requires our participation.
We can seek help from a professional or a friend, but I very much doubt that by leaving him at the mercy of nothing we will be able to repair the damage. Action!. No waiting for things to resolve themselves.
Ala come !. Take limitation to singing. It turns out that we believed that our worth depended on our material goods. What a pity that it is so widespread! We are worth more than what we have, we are worth what we are and what we can become.
Our potential is infinite. It goes far beyond the car we have, the number of properties in our name or the number of digits in our bank account. The economic abundance it's fantastic and of course we deserve it. But that is not what defines us or gives us value. This popular saying only gives rise to materialism, excessive ambition, lack of self-esteem and addiction to money.
More to know, more to discover, more to know, more to appreciate and less to have. At the end of the day, the only thing you have and will have is you and your experiences.
According to this popular saying, if for some day you get tired of what you have done up to that moment, you should not consider changing the course. Not at a professional level anymore, but also personal. What you have dedicated yourself to, dedicate yourself.
What has interested you be interested. Don't even think of dedicating yourself to something different or browsing beyond the line of fire. Alarm, alarm! Stagnation in sight. Ignore this saying, allow yourself to change as many times as you feel.
Life has many surprises for you. The journey is long and there are many paths to discover. Look for the one that most motivate at all times. If at any point you feel that it is not for you, calm down, there is always a plan b, c or d.
This one is to put the icing on the cake. With this saying they made us believe that ignorance is better than the truth. What things!
I don't think that anyone likes to live cheated, nor that anyone deserves it. Therefore this limitation is perpetually buried in the drawer of the grandmother's jokes. We don't want it with us. If there's anything we need to know, let's know it!!.
Feeling is not bad, feeling is worthy of our nature. If we do not experience certain things, we will miss part of our history. Our life is like a book. If we censor the most intense parts, we would probably not even want to read it ourselves ... What a boring tostón it would be!
And this is the end of this list of popular sayings and limiting sayings. There could be many more but with these you will have already realized how much junk information we have received since children.
Collectively, it is worth eradicating them, but we will only achieve that if we work individually. What can you do to contribute your bit? Simple ... Don't use them! And above all, if you have children, be very careful what you tell them. It will impact a lot on your way of seeing the world and that will determine your future.
I hope you liked it and if so, that you share it to make it reach more people. I would also appreciate if you leave me your comment contributing some other popular saying that comes to mind.
