An interesting question passed around at a party or among friends this Friday: How do you determine if you’re under mind control?

The fact is that you just cannot know, as everything you are doing could be a response that fits perfectly into another persons plans. If you take that as a possibility you could simply just give up and settle with the fact that NOTHING is truly within your control, think twice as there is a healthier option. Just ask yourself: “Am I acting or am I reacting?”

If you are reacting then you are respond to something outside of your control and trying to gain some control back, which is a potential sign of some form of mind control. Since no one likes to feel powerless and out of control the solution is to do something intentional and positive, that is NOT a response to the external environment.

How many students do you know who have a clear idea about what their future holds?- In my experience, very few.

With this in mind, selecting a college or university is, certainly an important decision and there are many factors to take into consideration.

Such a choice has to be fully thought-through. Choosing which University, and of course the right program can become, for many people, a great source of anxiety. For some it can take days to evaluate a list of the pros and cons, but for others, the choice becomes a kind of lottery. Frequently, the choice is deduced from randomness over reason, and it all ends with signing up for a faculty without any kind of pondering at all.

You may have wondered if there a right way or a wrong way in taking notes. Does one method of note-taking works better than another?

There is probably no one way that works best for all people in all situations, since everyone’s brain is unique sequence of connections.

The workplace for many people is a second home. For those that have the option of having a desk, work space, or cubical it’s a little place that transcends a bit of yourself. A grumpy cat poster slewing some remark about “Mondays” or a family picture on the desk corner to remind you of the little humans you couldn’t possibly forget in the 8 hours you are absent from home. A work space could also be a place in which one shows off that college diploma or certification that one hopes to hear praise for. Regardless of what’s on display in your area of productivity, one thing that reads true is how cleanliness in the work place may actually hinder your creative juices. That messy workplace may have some unsung virtues hiding there.

We have all heard it before – the most powerful human organ –the mind- is the least known to the scientist. Teams and teams have been working on its exploration, but it still remains a big mystery, some say that humanity barely knows 10 % of the actual mind structure functioning.

Having said this, it is good to know that with all the paranoia of mind control and how Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) can be (and is) used to “mess with people’s heads” it is high time to pull the cat out of the bag and let people know exactly what is possible and what is actually not possible to achieve.
