Perfecting Your Neurosis

Perfecting your neurosis refers to doing everything and anything except do the things you need to do to get what you insist you want.

A crude example of this behavior is if someone says you have to work out three days per week to burn fat, so you work out two days per week. Or if a trainer says to do three cardio workouts of 20 minutes each and you do one of 60 minutes and then don't workout for the next 6 days.

Extreme versions of this include when people seek out professionals who help people reach a goal in whatever category to learn all the suggestions and then going out of their way to not do those things and even do the opposite things...that way they can tell everyone they have tried everything and nothing works!

Believe it or not, this stuff goes on all the time in all industries. This is part of the reason why there are more spectators than participants in any category of endeavor or activity. This is part of the reason why there is more money made on weight loss gimmicks than actual science based program that always work. (You can count on part of the population doing behaviors that get the opposite results of what they insist they want). Part of the dynamic originates out of situations where people have gone through extreme stress, trauma or torment (or even if they only perceive they went through stress) where they perceived they didn't have any control over themselves, their choices or their situations so they create scenarios where they are the only ones who have the control they so intensely seek. One way that people can get a sense of control over their lives is to slow down progress itself...by slowing progress down, including getting healthy and well, they feel less stressed but ultimately the process causes more stress.

If a person was able to come to terms with the idea that "...that was then and this is now", and fully em-body it, the purpose  of attempting so much control that you have no control would readily outlive its usefulness. But, that's where psychology and physical health merge.

Information Transduction is the concept of the physical brain, through use of the mind takes ideas in and converts them to chemical messengers and behaviors within the body. One of the tricks of this process is when people initiate a process out of a coping mechanism and the mind takes them on and they become unconscious habits which interfere with newer, more updated goals and initiatives. In essence, its similar to how hypnosis works (a repetitive message given that is accepted at some level), its just that you can use negative self hypnosis as effectively and in many cases a misunderstanding of an idea exists where people draw conclusions about information in their environment or even take messages in from people who weren't mentally healthy to begin with. Think what would happen to a child if their paranoid schizophrenic parent who happens to be obese continually says, "You look just like me". The level of confusion and misunderstanding that can occur in the child's mind is unlimited.

Again, ultimately, the science of strategic exercise and nutrition is proven...what interferes and prevents a person from making progress is their ability to manage their mind, manage the messages from the outside world and manage the messages they repeat over and over in their mind.
