Good Evening..How are you all today .Hope you have a wonderful day.

Today I am going to tell you about perceptual positions. This is nothing but understanding the other
persons opinion in other persons viewpoint. This will help you to get rid of any negative emotions when
dealing with people.

Have you seen people suffering from negative thoughts. People have all the resources they want
unfortunately they don’t know how to use it. So no control over their thoughts. They feel powerless and
weak.

At the same time if you are aware of how to manage your thoughts you become powerful and hence
you are in control.

Look at another situation

We are all living in a society surrounded by our family members, relatives, and friends. We have seen
many of them are not happy and disappointed. We are not able to help them and we don’t know how to
help them.

If we know techniques like perceptual positions we can make people happy. We can help them to get rid
of their disappointment. We can connect with them easily.People starts loving our presence .This make
connection with people brings affiliation.

Let me explain another scenario

We all have dreams. We want to be the manager of the company, we want promotions and we expect
salary rise. Many times we cannot achieve this. Something is pulling us back.We are always in conflict
with our manager and collegeaues.

If we learn how we can manage our thoughts , we can achieve anything we want.Success will follow us
rather than us following success.

Do you want to be in a state like this-

So once you know how to use the perceptual positions we become powerful ……we can connect with
people easily and get affiliation…and become a successful by achievement.

Let’s come to perceptual positions. This technique is introduced by Gregory Batson. The principle is to
understand the other persons point of view, standing in other persons shoes. This will help you to get rid
of any negative emotions or thoughts.

So whenever you are in conflict with someone,and you really want to come out of it , imagine three
positions. Be in the first position and think of the thoughts in you due to that incident.think as this is
happening to you right now. Them move to the second position and think how the other person think or
see the situation .Go through all thoughts and emotions from his point of view. Once you completed
move to a third position, which is higher position, example view from a helicopter ,and observe the
thoughts and feelings of position 1 and position 2.

You will rsurprised to know that everyone is right and the thoughts and emotions will disappear.
Where can we use this. This can be used when you are in conflict with another person , in office, with
family, with friends and you will see how powerful this technique works.The position from where we
perceive really matters. Do you know where the sun rises??
