Mastering Mind Control
Research into human behavior reveals that first impressions are made incredibly quickly—often within a tenth of a second. These initial judgments are based predominantly on non-verbal cues, such as body language and facial expressions, rather than the spoken word. While it is commonly believed that our verbal communication is crucial, psychologists estimate that only about 7% of communication is conveyed through actual words. The remaining 93% is expressed through non-verbal signals, including gestures, posture, eye contact, and vocal tone. These non-verbal cues provide a more nuanced understanding of an individual’s emotional state, personality, and intentions. This process is closely related to the concept of dark psychology, which involves understanding and manipulating psychological principles to influence and control others. The rapid, subconscious evaluation of these cues can significantly impact our interactions and judgments about others, sometimes exploiting their vulnerabilities through dark psychological tactics.

IT's a Mental Trap
In our thoughts, we find something powerful—the nature of positivity and its profound impact on our well-being. Positive thoughts have a unique quality; they protect us from the traps of obsession. Unlike negative thoughts, which multiply and entangle us in despair, positive thinking remains steadfast and content. It's undeniable that our minds, as the architects of our experiences, have an immense influence on our physical selves. A flow of energy courses through us, and negative thoughts disrupt this harmony, causing internal blockages.

On Sunday I Teetered on The Deep End Drop-Off
When I commit, I commit hard. Like cement. I am THERE. My husband's wedding band has one of my favorite songs : 'All The Way'. I fell in love with the movie 'Joker's Wild' and Sinatra crooning it way before I knew who he was, way before I knew the dark side of the story.
