《练习转念》五星练转念：重塑思维，新方式行动

"Standing in the others shoes to think", is a common advice given in our real life. Whether it is in the process of communication or in a dispute, if we can think from the perspective of others, many differences can be bridged and current issues can be handled from a new perspective.

However, how to think from the others perspective is the key question. Frode Ian, a consultant, author, and expert on perspective transformation issues, wrote a book called "Practice Perspective Shift: New Perspectives, New Actions, and Better Results" to provide us with ways and methods to transform our perspectives and help us achieve a transformation in our thinking modes under his guidance and training based on the "Five-Star Principle" he created.

Of course, this process is not easy and requires continuous thinking and a lot of practice. A set of effective methods is the foundation upon which we can practice. Through reading this book and following the "Five-Star Principle" created by the author, we can enter into the training practice of transforming our thinking modes.

Why is it so difficult for us to change our mindset? Each persons thinking habits are gradually formed throughout a long process of growth and have their own set of logic, and sometimes they automatically operate without our attention.

For example, some people have a natural fear of furry objects because of some special experiences in childhood. Even though they know that they are not harmful, this fear cannot be eliminated and requires professional guidance. Therefore, this is the direct evidence of our deep-rooted mindset.

But this mindset can be changed, and professional guidance is one aspect of it, while the other is conscious training. Frode Ians Five-Star Principle is the foundation of this training. The personality factor causal relationship model provides the foundation for the five principles, and the causal relationship means that each star principle is a condition for the next stage.

The author opens up the five-star causal relationship training from the three aspects of personality, including needs, perspectives, and behaviors. In the process of changing our mindset, our brain plays a crucial role, and everything is for the ultimate result. Therefore, the Five-Star Principle is not just about achieving five stars in each aspect but rather the outcome jointly created by these five aspects.

Needs, including basic human needs and social belonging needs, are the motivation for all of our behavior, the perspective with which a person views things, and the collective manifestation of beliefs, faith, and thinking modes. They are also formed under the influence of culture over a long period, making it difficult to change our mindset. This is the part that this book is dedicated to changing. At this point, our brain must come into play, and our brain can produce different action forces through thinking about different aspects of demand concepts. The process of brain thinking can help us to rationally respond to the advantages and disadvantages of various concepts and choose the most suitable way for ourselves.

With a change in our mindset, it is time to take action, which is the ultimate expression of all of our previous actions and the external manifestation of how we handle things. So what about the final result? This is the ultimate destination of our behavioral standards. All of our demands are to achieve better results, which requires integrating all of these four aspects to achieve the best results.

Of course, each of these five aspects has its own detailed and need-to-be-sorted-out parts, some of which we may have a certain understanding of, while others are insights from this book. Let us complete our spiritual shaping process through reading "Practice Perspective Shift" and under the guidance of Frode Ian, change our thinking mode, and cope with the future with a more reasonable mindset.
