Believe in yourself | Nothing is Impossible

 In 2011, a report was published, named " Mindsets over Milkshakes " by  Kelly D. Brownell and Peter Salovey, Yale University. In this report, an experiment was explained. Yale Center for Clinical Investigation accumulates people from different vanity and told them that we give you 75$. In return, we will do some experiments on you. Participants were between the ages of 18 and 35. They all were pre-screened for diabetes, pregnancy, chronic medical or psychiatric conditions, and food allergies to lactose or eggs. They recruited fifty-three people for this experiment. Later on, only forty-six participants completed all components of the study (65% women, 78% student, 22% member of the community; 56% White, 12% African American, 11% Asian American, 10% Hispanic/Latino, and 11% other). 

What research center do? They had offered them two types of milkshakes named: Sensi-shake and Indulgent shake. The research center told them about the ingredients of both shakes. The indulgent condition presented the milkshake as high fat, high calorie “indulgent” shake. While, the sensi-shake condition touted the milkshake as low fat, low calorie “sensible” shake. These sessions were exactly one week apart, either at 8:00 a.m. or 8:20 a.m. after an overnight fast. So in the first week, researchers presented them a Sensi-shake, and similarly, next week, an indulgent shake. And before giving them a shake every time. They told them about the ingredients of that shake. There is one hormone in our body named: Ghrelin. It is often called a "hunger hormone" because it increases food intake. Blood levels of ghrelin are highest before meals when hungry, returning to lower levels after mealtimes.

So the results of that experiment were astonishing. After presenting every shake, researchers had taken their blood samples and check the level of ghrelin. After drinking sensi-shake, the ghrelin level was at a flat level. However, after drinking the indulgence shake, there was a steeper reduction in their ghrelin level. 

Our mind psychology works in a bombastic way. What we believe, the whole body works in that way. These participants believe that indulgence shake reduces their appetite because of good ingredients. However, both shakes are of the same ingredients. Yes, both shakes contained the same amount of fats and calories.

So belief is such a chief factor in our lives. If we believe that someone is lying with us. Then trust me if that person is pure like milk; we will never trust him or her. In our daily life, we meet only two types of people: encouragers and discouragers. We have to do only one thing, Never put an ear on talks of discouragers. Just believe in yourself and do your hard work. Same as China. When you believe that you can do anything, then you will do it. Because word impossible itself says I M POSSIBLE. Then a question arises why everyone is in a desperate state of mind Because Unfortunately, our belief in Allah becomes weak. When He did promise in Quran about Rizq; Then why we have to depress? We have to put our best. 

Another matter which I have to discuss is Comparison. Nowadays everyone compares themself with the other ones. They might be their class fellows, colleagues, or business partners. Or maybe from another profession. One thing we have to understand and contemplate on is that Comparison kills the joy of achievement. If you compare yourself with other people, you will never achieve anything in your life. Because you only see the results, not the struggle and hard work behind these results. 

It does not matter that you are earning 20k or 50k per month. Contemporary one of your class fellow is earning 01 lac per month, and one is jobless. Now it is up to you whether to thank or complain to Allah. Remember never to kill the joy of 20k or 50k. Because if you are happy and pay gratitude to Allah with 20k. You will be joyful with 01 lac or above because your time will come if you move with these skills incessantly. However, if you complain to Allah for 01 lac, that is not enough; You kill the joy of 01 lac. In the future, you will never be happy by earning 01 billion per month. You are comparing yourself. Just thanks to God for what He gives to you. 

Stay Strong and Happy. 

Peace✌
