Subconscious Mind
We are all aware that we have a subconscious mind. Many of us will even
place the blame of our activities on the subconscious. How many of us
though realize the power of the subconscious mind? It is one of our most
powerful tools, and it can either be our best friend or our worse enemy.
The subconscious mind ultimately controls the life you live. What
exactly is the subconscious mind and why should we pay attention to what
it is thinking?
Despite the best efforts of some professionals, we all acknowledge the
subconscious mind. It is the mind within the mind. It is the control
board that directs our actions and our thoughts. It is the voice in your
head that you hear when you are faced with a difficult or challenging
situation. The script that our subconscious speaks to us is as unique as
each individual in the world. Your subconscious mind is not the same as
mine. Even if we were raised in the same house, under the same
circumstances with the same parents. Your inner voice is just that, it
is yours.
You have heard your inner mind. When you were standing there getting
ready to make a life altering decision and it talked you out of it. I
would like to think that it talked you out of something that was
harmful, often though that inner voice is telling a person that they
can't do something. That they won't be able to accomplish what it is
they want. They aren't good enough, pretty enough, thin enough. The
subconscious is what you think of yourself deep, deep down inside.
If those deep thoughts you have about yourself are negative then chances
are better than not that you are not going to have the type of life that
you want. The good news is that you can change the way you think about
yourself. You can change the way the things that the subconscious mind
says to start living the life you really want.
Many people use affirmations to help change the way they think. These
are positive statements that you repeat to yourself multiple times
through the day. You don't have to spend a lot of money on subliminal
messaging scripts, you can do this yourself at home and it is very
effective. Think about what it is you want to change about yourself.
For
example, you want to lose weight. Instead of thinking you are fat,
repeat to yourself that you are your perfect weight. On a piece of paper
you can write down the same phrase and carry it in your pocket, you can
tap it to the mirror, make a ring tone out of it, and make it a
screensaver at work. The point is to repeat the message enough that the
subconscious mind picks up on the fact that this is what you think… and
what it needs to be thinking.
With this example, you will start to notice that you will become your
ideal weight. If you use affirmations to increase money, you will in
fact have more money. You can apply this to anything in your life. It is
possible. Perhaps you don't believe me.
Here is an example of how your mind impacts your life, without you even
realizing it on any given day. Let's say that you wake up late one day.
You say or think, 'It's going to be one of those days.' You take a
shower and find you are out of soap; you get dressed and spill coffee
down your shirt on the way to the office. Again, you think 'Yep, it is
definitely going to be one of those days.' You get to work and you are
faced with one obstacle after another again, you are thinking that this
is one of those days… and you even go as far as to think that it can't
get any worse… and it does.
While the average person is going to shrug this off and say it was
coincidence that all of those things happened. There are not such things
as coincidences, everything happens for a reason… and that reason is
usually your subconscious mind delivering to you the things you think
about.
In recent
years films and books like 'The Secret' have explained this phenomenon
in more scientific terms. This has become known as the 'Law of
Attraction'. This says that our subconscious mind not only reacts with
and responds to the reality we are experiencing it is actually creating
it!
Crazy as
this seems quantum physics is in agreement with this basic theory and it
has been proved that at subatomic level, the existence of matter really
is intrinsically linked with the mind of the observer. This is also what
the ancient religions have been saying for many thousands of years.
So if we do
create our own reality with our subconscious mind, then with practise we
can choose what kind of reality we experience! Some of the richest
people in the world throughout history have realized this fact and have
manifested incredible wealth by consistently visualizing clearly exactly
what they want and communicating this to their subconscious mind.
