Content Reframing
In a situation, just change
the meaning and impact of the happening. Look for opportunity in the situation,
instead
of loss. Because of this, the negative energy will
be converted into positive energy. Emotions will go into a positive frame of mind. If your boss says, “You are an idiot”, then it hurts you. Immediately change the context and think that your boss said it out of love. You know it very well how we feel when our sweetheart calls us an idiot. Life is all about reframing. There was a drunkard, whose girlfriend asked, “Why did you drink yesterday?” He replied, “There are only two reasons to drink. Either you are happy or sad. He said he had both the reasons. Happy because he had met his sweetheart and sad because why did he not meet her till then.” But in the army, when commander commands, then he does not say move back, rather he says that let us attack the opposite side.

We have to change the way we see the world, listen to
the world, and feel the world. And because of this, our representational
system is changed and of course subsequently our internal
communication is also changed and at the same time our behaviour is
totally changed.
You can change any experience. You can change any happening. You
can change any behaviour, you can control your own brain. You can produce
the desired
results. Now please reframe the following experiences:
results. Now please reframe the following experiences:
1-“My boss knows nothing—I can
do better and can be
the boss very soon.” Otherwise, you can always cry that boss is not good. When
Rockefeller asked
for a hike in his salary, his boss refused. He reframed this situation, “If I can work for
him to make
him a boss, why can’t I work for myself to be the boss.” He left the job and became a
businessman.
Many people complain about the company they work for and their boss but still continue working there.
2- Unfortunately, tax
liability has become huge.Reframe this as: You have such a great income that you have a higher tax
liability.
3- You have no money to live
lavishly. Reframe this as: You
have every reason to work and nothing to lose. Let’s refer to a simple point—a
gentleman went to
a priest and said that he had a problem. The priest said, “Give me 51,000 rupees and I will pray for you and perform a ritual.” The gentleman
said he had no money. Then the priest
asked, “Give me 11,000 rupees” Again
he refused. Then the priest asked for 51 Rupees. Again he refused. Finally, the priest said “What are you worried for?
God cannot destroy anything of yours.
You have got nothing to lose. “ Reframing is the way to put meaning to events. It
is the most effective communication
technique, tool, and philosophy. We can create a highway or we can create a blockage. It all depends on the way we reframe
things. All successful people, like politicians, businessmen, teachers,
lawyers, chartered accountants, cost accountants, etc. are big reframers.
Generally somebody does reframing for us and
then we follow the path and cry. The entire media, advertising, and the PR industry does nothing but
reframe all the happenings. eframing
changes everything from its own
paradigm. Laloo Yadav, Manmohan Singh, L. K.
Advani, etc. all reframed political slogans such as “India Shining”.By doing this, you can come to a conclusion about what should you do. You will take up the project with interest rather than frustration. You will neither spoil your personal life nor professional. You can apply this to any situation. Suppose you are not able to communicate with somebody who is very senior to you. Or you don’t talk to any girl on the pretext that they are arrogant or probably they may refuse you. That feeling of rejection is always there. With reframing you can eliminate all your fears. If your boss becomes unreasonable for a task given to you, instead of cursing him,
