Discover the enormous power of your mind in order to succeed and experience true happiness.
The mind is a powerful tool. It is the difference between living a life of abundance and a miserable life. When you understand the power of your subconscious mind and manage it effectively, you can transform your life. Your subconscious mind shapes your performance, productivity, ability to earn more money, self-image, goal setting and time management. If you are serious about living a good life, you must understand how your mind works and reprogram it to serve you better.
The key takeaways
1. Your conscious mind is your thinking mind. It is the gateway to your subconscious mind. You relate to your environment through the power of your conscious mind. To reprogram your subconscious mind for progress, purpose, and prosperity, you must utilize the power of your conscious thought.
2. Your subconscious mind is the conditioned mind. It is the seat of your belief, self-image, life experiences, emotions, skills and memories. It controls the vibration of your body and determines 95% of your results. To get new results in your physical world, you must first plant the idea in your subconscious mind.
3. The subconscious mind can only be reprogramed through persistence. To build a strong and healthy body or muscle you must work out daily. In a similar vein, to transform your subconscious mind, it requires repetition with emotion.
Successful people have developed certain habits of thoughts, feelings and behaviours that separate them from the rest of the pack. If hard work, intelligence, desire, occupation or location is the major ingredient of success, then, almost everyone in a particular state, doing the same job, with the same level of intelligence and qualification will all be successful. But, this is not the case. In every location, profession, industry, we have the winners and the lookers. We know that they are highly intelligent people who are broke, unhappy and frustrated in life. We also have people of average intelligent who are doing extremely great in life.
We all have conscious desire to succeed and live a good life, but our subconscious belief system is the one sabotaging us. So, it is wise to understand how our subconscious mind works.
The Conscious (Thinking) Mind
Your conscious mind is the seat of thoughts, consciousness, reason, intellect, judgement, imagination, willpower, desire and perception. Your conscious mind is connected with your brain and five senses; sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. It is the part of you that allow you to be aware of events around you. You are reading this fantastic information with the aid of your conscious mind (Your sight, hear and brain). Thought energy is always flowing to you through your conscious mind. Information, desires, goals, tasks and ideas are thought energies.
Your conscious mind can accept or reject information because it is the seat of your willpower, reason and judgement. It is the gardener that plants information into your subconscious mind. Your conscious mind is the gateway to your subconscious mind. Nothing goes to your subconscious mind without first entering your conscious mind. Therefore, God has given you the power to choose what you feed your 5 senses which influences your belief system, emotions and habits. He also blessed you with the ability to create original thoughts in your mind through the power of your imagination and willpower.
The Subconscious (Conditioned) Mind
The subconscious mind is the seat of your memories, beliefs, experiences, skills, habits and emotions. Your subconscious mind is a huge data bank that stores and retrieves all experiences, images, and words you have experienced in your life. It is your guiding system that inform your conscious mind on the information, idea, danger or opportunities to process. Your subconscious mind is conditioned through repetition of thoughts, ideas and information from your childhood till date.
Your subconscious mind is a fertile land, whatever you plant into it will germinate and shape your results. It only accepts information, it doesn’t reject. Any emotionalized thought, idea or image impressed on the subconscious mind by the conscious mind will be accepted.
Your subconscious mind is on auto-pilot. It works automatically to keep you alive and consistent with your belief system. It is the power that controls your body temperature, heart rate, breathing and cell division. Your subconscious mind is in each part of your physical body and set your body into vibration. For example, when you are happy. It means your body is in a positive vibration based on the state of your mind. On the flip side, when you are sad, it signifies that your body is in a negative vibration based on the state of your mind.
Your subconscious mind is the part of you that keeps working when you lost your conscious awareness. It works when you are asleep, drunk or in danger. It controls 95% of your results.
To transform your life, you must transform your subconscious mind. This is the major reason, success, greatness, riches and happiness start from within you, not outside of you.
The Body: The instrument of the Mind
Many people have desire to change the way they feel, behave and their results, but they are not ready to do the work that will transform their mind first. How you feel and what you do are products of your habits. Habits are formed in the subconscious mind. Your body is a plastic instrument that obeys the commands of the mind. To change the results you are getting, you have to change you subconscious programming first.
Body-Mind Relationship
Just like the state of your mind has a huge influence on your body vibration, your physiology can also influence your mind. The way you consistently act is being recorded by your subconscious mind as your own standard. To act as if you are the person you want to be has enormous influence on your subconscious mind. Using your body in the right way can help you turn fear into faith or anxiety into calmness. This is one of the major reasons, why physical exercise improves the state of mind.
How Can We Reprogram Our Subconscious Mind to Serve Us Better?
