Ever since I got sick, everything I do, everything I buy has a psychological foundation behind it that motivates me. In reality, I attach importance to the psychological aspect in all areas.
For example, I bought a chair to use where I work. Now, I could buy a simple chair, which would be more convenient economically, but psychologically it wouldn't generate anything for me, and for me, this is fundamental.
Having a large chair, like the one in the image, allows you to use your body language to manipulate other people's emotions. It serves to capture attention and demonstrate that you have power. Being in a high seat when other people are sitting in a more normal type of seat forces other people to look up at us. We have a tendency to respect and fear people who look down on us. When they unconsciously look up (this is psychological), they will perceive you in a position of power and pay more attention to you. This undoubtedly constitutes another one of my "Psychological bombs".
My illness forced me to stay home, but far from staying and complaining, I achieved many things that fill me with pride, and the psychological factor was fundamental in everything. I wrote two books, made two blogs without being able to move my extremities well, and despite receiving monetary assistance for treatments not covered by the social security system (genetics in another country or stem cells) from family and unconditional friends, I managed to become financially independent, starting with practically no money.
I achieved this in 6 years, and I will explain to you how I did it. Because if I could do it with willpower, you can too, and I give you the keys that allowed me to overcome this bad time.
All my achievements are based on 3 pillars, and in all 3, the psychological aspect is very important. When something happens to you that completely turns your life around, what is truly important comes to the forefront, making everything else seem insignificant.
1) The social pillar: the social life you have is fundamental, and that is where I find true happiness, obviously with your basic needs already met. I'm talking about the unconditional support of your parents and siblings, the presence of relatives and friends, meetings, parties, etc. Notice that I am not talking about money. While it is very important, and anyone who tells you that money doesn't matter is because they never had a need. Money is very important, but once your basic needs are met, it is not so much, and I think its utility is marginal. This is an accounting term, but I will explain it basically. If a person is in the desert, and you offer them a glass of water, they would pay anything for it. If you offer them two glasses, they would pay a little less, and if you offer them three, they would pay even less, and so on. And if you offer them 100,000 liters of water, then they would value it very low. This is what accountants are taught in college as marginal propensity to consume, each time you get a little bit, it is worth a little less. This happens with money; at first, it is very important, but after you meet your basic needs, its importance at first, but once your basic needs are met, its importance decreases marginally.
2) Work: this aspect was fundamental in my psychology. I think that combined with the other two, it was the key to saving my life. It's extremely important to work to keep your mind occupied. You have to do something that you truly enjoy so that you can do it excellently and it doesn't cost you. When you do something you like, the hours don't matter; it could be 3 in the morning, and you would still get up to do it, you can do it on Saturdays and Sundays, and you would still be happy doing it, and it wouldn't matter.

3) Neurodecoration: this is the subject for which this blog was made. The mind controls everything, and that's why neuro and decoration, being in a harmonious environment that gives me mental tranquility is fundamental for me. Being in a pleasant place encourages me psychologically to get up and face the day in the best way possible. This is essential in my case because six years ago, I contracted a disease that made it impossible for me to do anything, leaving me in a wheelchair, making me spend most of the day at home, and if I weren't in a place that I liked, I wouldn't have that incentive that makes me fight harder to get more things.
Achieving a harmonious environment is subjective. It means something different for me than it does for you. In my case, it usually coincides with living among expensive items, but this is subjective.
1. The view: everyone focuses solely on this sense, obviously the fact that the place is beautiful to look at makes this sense one of the most important, but it is not everything. This is why I say that "linings" and "biohomes" are psychological bombs.
2. Taste: If people have candy or chocolate to eat in a candy bar at your house, they will feel much more comfortable and they will like everything much more.
3. Hearing: in my article "walls of water" he talked about the importance of the noise of falling water in a person's psychology.
4. The olfactory: the smell that your house has is fundamental, there are currently many flavorings for very good environments, I advise you to put one so that your house smells good.
5.The touch: the decorations or items that you put in your house must be of good quality so that if someone touches it they do not fall apart.
