Superar a timidez ao controlar o estado emocional
Words can be amazingly powerful if you know how to use them.
As palavras podem ser incrivelmente poderosas se souber como usá-las.
Leia qualquer livro sobre como influenciar pessoas e perceberá o que quero dizer.
Some shy people don’t understand how their behavior, and specially their language patterns, influence others.
Algumas pessoas tímidas não compreendem como o seu comportamento, e especialmente os seus padrões de linguagem, influenciam os outros.
Any decision you make is largely influenced by the emotional state you are in at the time.
Qualquer decisão que tome é amplamente influenciada pelo seu estado emocional no momento.
If you are in a positive, happy state, you are much more likely to behave in positive, rewarding ways.
Se estiver num estado positivo e feliz, é muito mais provável que se comporte de forma positiva e gratificante.
If you are in a “bad mood”, you tend to make poor decisions and ignore the positive things around you.
Se estiver de "mau humor", tende a tomar más decisões e a ignorar as coisas positivas que o rodeiam.
How do emotional states work?
Como funcionam os estados emocionais?
If you concentrate, you can often put yourself in whatever state you want (Think happy thoughts!).
Se se concentrar, muitas vezes poderá colocar-se em qualquer estado que desejar (Pense em pensamentos felizes!).
- Adapted. New English Point, Book 2. 1999. Editora Saraiva.
