No FUN FACTS But INTERESTING FACTS!

 

These FUN FACTS seem to be all over the place [and that's perfectly fine because we need to live life that way].  BUT without belittling those FUN FACTS, if there is something more deserving and much more noteworthy than FUN FACTS are INTERESTING FACTS which can be culled from the psychology experts.  Allow me to share some of those snippets and insights from the psy experts.  LIKE WHEN we need to turn down [OR OFF] our car audio/music WHEN you're looking for something OR a location you're NOT familiar with.  That really makes sense because the psy experts tell us that our mind CAN'T focus on two things at the same time.  LIKE WHEN you are into your goal-setting and even before you're able to achieve it, you tend to sort of 'announce' it to your friends and colleagues.  Studies show that it is likely that you'll NOT succeed [as studies have proved it].  WHY?  Because most of us can lose our own motivation by then, whew😑😑😑

LIKE WHEN our mind cannot simply 'create faces' BUT studies proved that for faces we dream of, chances are we would have met them at some point in our life, even if only in passing.  LIKE WHEN everywhere and everyone wants and expects us to go multitasking, WHETHER at home, in school, at the workplace OR even in our business forays.  OH YES, tragically, you would have heard various accidents along the road [NOT even freeways] because the driver [WHILE driving] was texting OR engaged on a phone call.  Bottomline is, multitasking is simply NOT realistic.  Except maybe during emergencies WHERE you got to do it.  Other than that, zillions of researches proved that multitasking is simply NOT the way to go❌❌❌
Even in the technology space of OEMs [Original Equipment Manufacturers] like IBM, Dell, HP, etc, through the years, they tried to outsmart the competition by launching processors with computing powers double OR triple the power of the existing competition.  And WHILE I am NOT an OEM techie, allow me to share my 2-cents here.  All those ultra, high-powered processors of the OEMs pitched the 'computing power' of their processors BUT NOT much is known in public that each of those processors are NOT really multitasking BUT instead, the OEMs introduced multi-threading to kind of prove the multitasking prowess of their bandied processors!!!
LIKE that our actions toward others does impact others' beliefs about ourselves?  Thereafter, that triggers OR causes others to act in a certain way toward us, thus reinforcing our beliefs about ourselves WHICH then may influence our actions toward others.  On a positive note, this reminds me of the PYGMALION EFFECT, that psychological phenomenon WHERE the high expectations from others can lead one to end up with a performance OR result way beyond WHAT he/she was originally capable OR expected to achieve.  Think about parents WHO closely monitor their child's academic performance such that they end up setting a bar high enough [BUT in many cases, I did bear witness WHERE the child did 'over-achieved]πŸ’šπŸ’›πŸ’œ
Our takeaway:  Much as expectations are proven to influence behavior, it behooves that those expectations should start from our own selves.  Meaning, it just makes sense that you expect yourself to end up LIKE THIS OR perform LIKE THAT [although preferably, those expectations should be positive enough].  At the end of the day, I'd like to go back to that age-old one-liner WHICH says:  WHAT YOU SOW IS WHAT YOU REAP.  So, here's hoping that every single iota we sow is good enough for us to benefit once we reap its fruits down the road.  YES dude, these are NO FUN FACTS BUT INTERESTING FACTSπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ

Good Things DON'T Come To Those Who Wait
