Asking good questions
Posted by Wassim on 9:20 AM
Sometimes it seems that things don't go as expected. Sometimes I think I made mistakes or I did bad calculations. But what if I was asking myself wrong questions? What if I say to myself :- what do I really want, if I knew it was achievable?- what can I do, to enjoy my time more?- what are the things I'm grateful to Allah for right now?- How can I improve my lifestyle, my health and my relationships?-...

Add this to the pile
Posted by Wassim on 2:49 PM
I began learning NLP. I got a huge NLP video library. I'm enjoying this stuff. Besides, I resumed my SWITCH studies. It'll take a lot of work, a lot of study time, less sleep and lots of patience. I'm going to condition my mind every day to grasp any SWITCH topic and memorize it, and I'm sure my fresh NLP skills will help ...

Back from Breakdown
Posted by Wassim on 10:47 AM
Those programs I mentioned in the previous post are wonderful. The impact on the brain is real. For maximum effectiveness, I plug in my player whenever I sleep or nap. As a result, no more stress, no more 200MPH thinking.I'm going to try "change your life in 7 days" by Paul McKenna. I read positive feedback about his products and about hypnosis in gener...

On the Edge of Breakdown
Posted by Wassim on 12:24 PM
I noticed that my level of stress grew up these days. I often go to bed feeling mentally tired, powerless and more and more frustrated. Yesterday, I went to bed at 8pm, and my mom noticed my behavior that's getting worse every day. I sometimes feel frustrated that I still haven't achieved my career goals, that I still haven't attracted my soul mate, that I still haven't found joy and freedom. Mom...

Bad Coincidence?
Posted by Wassim on 8:00 PM
I had lunch with a old classmate today. I hardly managed to be there on time, because I had to migrate some PCs from Wireless to wired Ethernet.I thought she would be glad to see me. I thought, by the quality emails she sent to me and by the amount of time we had on the phone monthes ago, that we're on to something.Well, she was cold today. She avoided looking into my eyes many times. I know it's...

A new job and a new lifestyle
Posted by Wassim on 7:07 PM
I got the new job. Now I'm the network administrator of an emerging bank. The infrastructure is pretty sophisticated. All network gear is Cisco and most security stuff is around Juniper. That's a robust combination.I admit that I still don't master all the details of the new network infrastructure. I discover it bit by bit along the way. My boss and my team collegues are nice. Each day, we come back...

Does Hypnosis work?
Posted by Wassim on 12:25 PM
I sat, put on the earphones and listened to the hypnosis track. After counting backward from 300 to 1 with concentration, I realized that: I had an oustanding change in my voice, my internal self talk dropped to almost 0, I have more energy and desire to resume my goals, I feel more positive, I breathe more fully...I'll stick to "Instant Confidence" by Paul McKenna during the upcoming we...

Almost 28 Days Later
Posted by Wassim on 4:57 PM
The CEO rejected my premature resignation. He had a very strong personality and self-confidence, I admit it. In my one-and-a-half year of working at SATEC, I only discussed with him twice.In a second attempt to quit my job early, he refused.One of my collegues was blaming me. Some may be making fun of me. He told me that I made big mistakes. I don't believe it. They are just mistakes, and I learned...

Meeting the CEO
Posted by Wassim on 4:21 PM
Tomorrow I'll have a meeting with our CEO about my resignation. It won't be easy because he's stubborn. Besides, my company could lose a contract because of it.However, I can not stay any longer in the company. I see no focused professional growth for it, in my opinion. One day I work on Juniper gear, another one on very old WAN technology like ISDN. One day I went with a technician to dust off some...

Awaken The Giant Within - NAC part 1
Posted by Wassim on 9:38 PM
I'm using Tony Robbins' NAC technique to eradicate my negative beliefs. I began with the belief "change takes time". It's been three days since I began applying NAC to this belief.I'm seeing changes, really. I now consistently study the final touches for BCMSN and manages my time more effectively.The progress is not huge, but it's better than my past situation, where I used to stuck to non-value activites.I'll...

The Power of Beliefs is Real
Posted by Wassim on 10:29 AM
I went to the mosque. " I need to take lunch rapidly and get back to the office, because Marouene needs me for something". It was closed. "What"?". Very strange. At this time doors must be open and muslims must be coming in groups. Where are they?I looked around me. Nobody is bothered by my stupefaction. I looked at my watch again. 11:50am. I'm sure, it's time! Is there a problem with the mosque??Then...

Happy new year 2010
Posted by Wassim on 9:45 AM
What's the difference? a year has gone, another year has come. If I keep doing the same mistakes, feeling the same, behaving the same, then I don't see what 2010 could be any better. As I read my success journal at work on December 29 of 2009, I realized that I was a big dreamer and a better goal-oriented man on May 2008. It's obvious. One year has passed and little improvement occured. In 2009, I...
