Your Analytical Training Can Become Barriers To Personal Growth and Development

It is amazing how much details we failed to notice, when our perceptual sensibility is clouded by our pre-occupation with analysis. In typical business occasions, our thoughts are usually quick to perform analysis that often gets distorted by our values, judgments, and experience. As our mind is busy processing the information, we are distracted from hearing, sensing and seeing the obvious that is just in front of us. Without a trained mind, we fail to notice the change in voice tone, tightening of jaw muscle, tension in the shoulder, or subtle change in the eye. We often hear the spoken words without getting the real messages. The converse is true. Analytical thinking is one of key essential skills needed to dissect and solve complex problems. However, we need to use our analytical skill as a tool effectively, and not become its slave. If we don't restraint its use, our analytical skill can really become barriers to personal growth and development. It can tell us things in our environment that directly affects our well-being. Sometime, certain information or thoughts just come to our mind, prompting us to take certain actions that greatly impact the course of our life. Instinct is the higher kind of knowledge that comes from direct experience. When instinct is at work, we just know it without any need to figure anything out or to analysis the situation. It is only possible when the mind thinks in a non-linear way. Creativity can help us solve problems at a higher level that is impossible with analysis. We failed to realize that everyone has a mind that is a huge creative force. Creativity is a natural and constant process of our mind. However, creativity is often inhibited by rules and restrictions that are imposed on it externally. A simple way to kick-start the development of creativity is to make changes to things that we do day in and day out as a matter of rules or habits. In our daily life, there are plenty of opportunities to find new ways to do the same old things. It helps direct our creative force, and lead our thoughts into a multi-dimensional paradigm. In fact, the development of the above three essential skills will be obstructed when we put our analytical skill on over-drive. These powerful resources are within everyone one of us. With constant practice, you can develop these skills to enhance your perception sensibility, which plays a critical role in your personal growth and development.
