Performance is changes in different spaces because of how you feel in those areas. But where those places ‘where you are the most productive are found based off what you prefer. The areas in which you experience the most happiness and where you perform the best show a lot of what type of peri you are. «|The places in which you are in play crucial roles inthe type of mood you will be placed in, For example, being in an area where you are more comfortable, that is inviting, and is over all sending off good vibes you tend to be your happiest. Then the places where its new, not inviting, and stressful tend to throw us in the opposite direction and therefore make you unhappy. Of course, some say well it doesn’t matter in what situation you put in you must always have a b\ \ positive mindset. But that is easier said than done as much as we wish we can turn every a situation no matter good or bad just by your mindset that isn’t how we or the world is built, Just as Matthieu Ricard quoted Buddhism” Suffering will always exist as a universal \ phenomenon..."(36) if suffering will always exist then how can we always have a positive mindset. We tend to over react and over think in the areas that we aren’t those most comfortable‘and that’s in those places yvgare not happy. like Therefore, the area where you are play crucial roles into your happinesy/} find myself to be the happiest when I am with friends or when I'm is because when I'm around my family just hanging out and having fun. The reason behind this in those areas my mind clears up and my worries disappear and I'm in my most comfortable area, One area where I find myself to be the least happy or not happy at all is work. That's because when I’m there I think about everything I need to do the rest of the day and I stress myself out with my over reacting of how much I really have. But overall, I feel like people rene » to be there happiest in areas where they feel peace and good feeling all around. That why your » experience changes in the different types spaces you are in, A A Ss Performance also is something that is affected because the space you happen to be in. if “ te, v Ww you are comfortable in an area and you’re comfortable with the situation you are put in you will Ms a perform better. For instance, you are the best thinking and the coolest minded when you’re in an KS area where you're comfortable or situation you're in because you are already familiar with. But ‘when placed in a situation or area you aren't comfortable with you overwhelm yourself and don’t j let yourself think to be able to perform your best, Some may say well if you are put in stressful | situations of course you will not be able to think straight and not be able to perform your best. ee er people who are fire fighters or even work as an EMT are used to beipg in stressful situation and perform at their bes in those situations. I'what people say is re then EMT would probably lose their job and people’s lives would be lost same goes for fire fighters. The reason they can perform their best in those situation is because that’s what they train for thats what they do for a living so in a sense they comfortable with the stressful situations they are placed in every day. So Neat! ; that’s why your performance varies on the different spaces you're in. The space where I perform‘or this is because I’m calm and comfortable and in an area, that is quiet but not too quiet. These are the spaces that I want to be in and places I always find myself going to when I want things to bbe done right. So, the placement in the areas you are in affect your performance depending on the type of emotions you fee! in there and when you want to get the best outcome put yourself in the areas you feel the most comfortable. ‘The areas where you are the happiest and the areas where you perform the best show a lot to do with the type of person you are. For instance, I'm the happiest when I am with friends talking and having a good time, On the other hand, | perform my best when I am alone in my room and have some music playing in the background to keep me focused. I am a social person and look to socialize when I want to be in a good mood but when I want to perform my best 1 prefer to be alone and away from distractions. Every person has their own preference and may d not like the places I have choose but that is where I always lean too and where you'll find me at. 3% » yt ay best, Rumi quotes in one of his poems “how should fish not leap fast into the sea from dry X\" land when from the ocean so cool the sound of the waves reached its ear” (64). What the quote is. 3" 7 saying is that when a fish is out of water his urge wife to want to jump straight back into the eae : . ‘ocean, So how this ties in is that when yore gut of your comfort zone your fist instinct is —s ‘wanting to go back and get into the place of comfort. You must follow where your body and i where your mind wants to be to find your happiness and your place of peaked performance. Everyone is different so you must find what best works for you and keep sticking to it, Some may say if'you stay in your comfort zone you may never grow or experience new things. That true but we will always be placed in uncomfortable positions and be forced into places where notcomfortable enough to perform the best no matter what but when we need it to relax or if we can 120 to our places always know where those places are. ‘Algo, the areas show your idea of happiness and in a sense what happiness means to you. To be truly happy I feel as though you must be surrounded by the people who are the closet to ‘you and having a good time with each other. But to be a happy person overall, I feel as though ‘you must accept yourself’ and appreciate everything you have. Of course, itis easier said than done because of the society that we live in where money pretty much controls everything. If you ‘can look past the thing you do not have and appreciate everything you do and be proud of who ‘you are as a person instead of looking for the negatives you will truly be a happy person no matter the circumstances. That is my idea on happiness others may agrce or disagree but that all depends on the type of person you are. ‘The areas in which you experience the most happiness and where you perform the best show a lot of what type of person you are, Your experiences in different arcas and the way you interpret who you will feel in the areas affect your happiness in a good or bad way. The way you g0 on feeling the rest of the day because being placed in that area show a lot of the type of personality you have. [Fyou are easily ticked off and let little thing control your mood ot if you let things go and focus on other things that lit you up. Also, the way you perform in the different areas and where those areas way be show how what places you find to be comfortable and show a small glimpse of the person you are. For instance, some people panic in stressful situations and where a lot of people are watching and some may shine in those situations so it all depends on ‘what type of person you are and where are the most comfortable. So, with knowing these areas you will be able to determine what happiness means to you and how the areas you are placed in“An or cannot affect you. Ultimately theses areas show the ‘ype of person you are and what you consider what happiness is, }Sr in “ements ‘works Cited awn Skorezewsk!.
