🧁🤍THE BATMAN EFFECT🤍🧁
🤍Are you aware of the meme where people start identifying themselves as batman ? Turns out it is more than a meme. The batman effect means where you pretend to be character like Batman or Barbie to complete a task.
🧁In a University of Michigan a researcher , Professor Ethan Kross , he completed a study he completed with several colleagues where a sample of 4 and 6 year old children were invited to complete a boring task on computer . The children were instructed to work hard , keep it as long as they could and they were reminded the task were boring . To test their commitment to the cause , the researchers informed the kids that they could take the break whenever they wanted to play a game on tablet .
Group one - Researchers told them to ask themselves , " Am I working hard ? " while they completed the task.
Group Two- Researchers instructed these children to ask themselves , " is y/n working hard ? " .
Group Three - Researchers told these kids children to pretend they were a favourite hardworking character like Batman , Bob the Builder or Dora the explorer . They received a prop like a cape as a visual reminder to act like their character. They were instructed to ask themselves, " Is Batman working hard ? "
Result - Children in group one did not enjoy their task . They took most breaks and their motivation was poor. The second group did a little better . The third group or the Batman group worked harder , took fewer breaks and enjoyed their tasks more than others.
🤍The batman effect works for not only children but for adults too !! Beyonce has an alter ego " Sasha Fierce " , her alter ego allowed her to be confident . Adele also has an alter ego " Sasha Carter " , her alter ego was a combination of Beyonce's Sasha Fierce and the real music star June Cartar. Adele admitted that her alter ego helped her give her best to every performance during her breakout year. I believe even k-pop idols have alter egos , there are idols who are bubbly and shy in real life but on stage they are confident.
🧁The Batman effect helps us to reduce anxiety. Adopting an alter ego is an extreme form of self-distancing which involves taking a step back from our immediate feelings to allow us to view a situation more dispassionately. When you think of yourself as a separate identity , it is not you that has to perform the task , it is Batman . It can help you to build confidence, increase concentration , improve your emotional regulation and help you to gain self-control . Your alter ego has no limitations.
🧁So the next time , you lose your motivation to study ? Pretend you are Rory Gilmore. ( whoever you upto for study inspiration) . You feel you cannot do anything ? Pretend you are Barbie. You feel you cannot dance ? Pretend you are Michael Jackson.

💗💋SELF-LOVE WILL SAVE YOU💗💋
💗Loving yourself and feeling good about yourself is so crucial. Self-love is the best love and it will save you. You will always have yourself and you are going to spend your whole life with yourself so it is not cute to feel bad about yourself.
💋Self-love is not believing that you are better than others , it is believing that you are not less than others . The reason loving yourself can be difficult sometimes is because you are seeking validation from others , you are giving too much importance to what others are saying and listening to their words as if they are facts. Opinions do not decide who you are , it is you. You decide who you are , you are the creator of your reality.
💋Self-love can make manifesting easy too. Of course , you do not need self-love to manifest. When I manifested my summer vacations to extend , I did not love myself or feel good about myself , after manifesting summer vacations , I was really happy but the happiness was temporary . After few weeks , I still attracted people who would make question my self-worth. If you develop self-love , you will evoke self-confidence and realize your self-worth. I have made two posts ( click me and click me ) on why you should treat yourself well and feel good about yourself. Self-concept and self-love will make your life easy. Also , when you know your worth , you will not give a damn about what others say about you and you will not tolerate mistreatment from others. At the end of the day , it is you , you decide your worth , your self- worth is intrinsic, no external factor can take it away. Read these posts to realize your self-worth- click me and click me !
💗Practice affirmations . Listen to songs which will make you feel confident. Do not listen to sad songs or watch sad shows or movies when you are depressed , doing so can make you feel worse. Practice atleast one self-care activity daily.
