The FRUITS Philosophy is an effective tool for uprooting limiting and negative mindsets that clandestinely lurk among the internal scars left by traumatic or painful life experiences.
As adults or as children and adolescents, we can be traumatized by any number things. When we do not properly heal from such events, we tend to be re-traumatized as those experiences are triggered in the here-and-now. The result is that we react or respond to unrelated current events as if we were right back where the hurt originally occurred. This is counterproductive to relationships, our careers, and our entire lives.
Why the Law of Attraction isn't Working
Limiting mindsets are the reason the Law of Attraction isn't working for some of us. The Secret was a best-seller. Too many were frustrated that it didn't seem to work for them. You have recognize what's at the core of these mindsets before you can effectively address them. Anything less is no more than a cosmic game of whack-a-mole and that battle is never ending.
The FRUITS Philosophy
The FRUITS Philosophy cuts to the root of negative emotions and the mindsets that drive them.
- Flip-the-Script
- Recalibrate
- Understanding
- Investigate I Interpret I Initiate
- Trust the Process
- Stay Tuned
Initiating this process the minute you are triggered allows you to stop old self-defeating responses by flipping the script on knee jerk reactions rooted in the past. It positions you to re-calibrate your thinking before giving in to emotion. Then you will seek understanding through the perspective of others.
Once you have that information, you will do some serious soul searching to get a grip on a more objective view of the event and what lies your emotions might have been telling you in the moment. Armed with that information you initiate a realistic response to the event after formulating a game-plan for addressing such triggers going forward.
Remember this is a process that will result in positive changes. You have to trust the process both in the moment and going forward. Your life will change. Some old acquaintances will fall by the wayside, and some toxic relationships may become quite tenuous as you do a 180 degree turn.
Always stay tuned to the process, understanding that in consistency lies the power. The minute you get lazy or choose to revert to old behavior, you will definitely notice the difference.
