If
you say something often enough, it will become true
|
.
| This
module is focused on the care and maintenance of the mobiliser, activist
of animator. |
. |
If
you see a child fall down and get a skinned knee, you will help her or
him up, give her or him a hug, and take her or him inside to put on a bandaid
and get a drink of cocoa. |
....
| To
stay healthy and happy, to be an effective mobiliser, you need to give
yourself the same quality of concern and care. |
. |
Of
all the people you were put on earth to help and to look after, the number
one most important is you. |
....
| Mobilisers
do their work because they care. They want to help in the war against poverty. |
. |
They
want to strengthen the down trodden. To be able to do that, they
must also love themselves. |
....
| One
very useful means to do that is to make self affirmations. It is
quite simple. |
. |
Take
or make a half a dozen statements about how you want to be. “I
am a loving and caring person.” |
....
| “I
am calm and strong in the face of adversity.” “I have a
sense of humour.” Write them each on a separate piece of paper. |
. |
Stick
each paper in a place where you will see it each day: on the bathroom mirror,
on the fridge door, on the door jam where you leave the house. |
....
|
Read them and say them each time you
see them.
|
....
| Keep
saying them, and they will become true. It is like magic. Not
superstitious magic, but a remarkable phenomena supported by psychological
studies and research. |
. |
How
it works is not important here. That is works is important, and another
tool to add to your mobiliser tool box. |
