The Non-Conscious Mind at Work. Harness it for Your Success

Written by Andrew Abernathy


Thoughts are real things. As soon as you realize how to control your thoughts you are on your way to making vast changes in your daily success.

This month I am going to follow up onrepparttar article from last month, as I promised I would. Last month you may remember I made a statement that may have taken some of you by surprise. I told you that recent studies have shown our brains have no less than six levels of activity and five of those work allrepparttar 123006 time. Even when we sleep or are in a stupor from too much fromrepparttar 123007 night before. Byrepparttar 123008 wayrepparttar 123009 alcohol that makes our senses dull works on our brains to prevent electrical signals to travel through it and cause all our mental activity to slow down. No wonder you get blurry vision, strange animals, slowed response time and strange verbal responses after a bit of alcohol inrepparttar 123010 body.

An no wonder you have a headache later. The brain is just trying to getrepparttar 123011 chemicals back in balance. All this to sayrepparttar 123012 chemicals inside your brain make it work. Recently you may have seen articles inrepparttar 123013 news magazines or your newspaper about a discovery related to memory and recognition. It seems diet has a direct impact on our mental activity. As we get older we get a waxy substance that builds up onrepparttar 123014 brain connections. These act as insulators to preventrepparttar 123015 electrical signals in our brains from being transmitted. This energy isrepparttar 123016 activity of our mental process and createsrepparttar 123017 memories we have as well asrepparttar 123018 reactions we need to cause our bodies to work.

For us this translates intorepparttar 123019 ability to remember what makes us feel good, or even where we leftrepparttar 123020 keys this last night. Our brains get dull and listless when we don't exercise them and as we get older. To some degree we can defeat this by actively associating something with our actions. Preferably tierepparttar 123021 memory to an image that is familiar. I do this by always placing my car keys in a basket on my dressing table. When I see my keys drop inrepparttar 123022 basket I makerepparttar 123023 association graphic, rather than just throwing them anywhere without thinking about it. Try it. You will be surprised how this simple exercise demonstratesrepparttar 123024 powers of associative organization. In one way or another allrepparttar 123025 memory gurus use this principle to teach you how to remember about anything.

Let's move on. We want to remember things that cause us to remain motivated. The important idea here is we have to retrain our thoughts to become focused on what we want to accomplish. To do this we have to raise whatever it is we want to accomplish to a point in our consciousness that we begin to see ideas and things around us that directly, or indirectly relate to what we want to be important to us. If we have been allowing ourselves to think we can't be successful at anything we do, then after a while we will really believe this.

Automatic Brain Works Overtime For You

Written by Andrew Abernathy


Use all of your brain to be your most effective.

"Running on Automatic" is what I callrepparttar ability to visualize what you need to have happen. Automatic becauserepparttar 123005 part of your brain that gives us most of our solutions is working allrepparttar 123006 time. When you are asleep or not. Most of us call it our subconscience. This part of your brain is processing what your awake aware or cognitive part ofrepparttar 123007 brain is telling it is going on. Our subconscience is not aware of any rational or philosophical system. It just helps us processrepparttar 123008 stuff we see, feel, smell, taste and hear. It isrepparttar 123009 core of our intuition. And most of all it can be exercised and controlled.

When we understand how to feed our subconscious so it will work out our problems and help us get to where we need to be there is nothing you can't achieve. Didn't your mother tell you "There's nothing you can't do, if you just set your mind to it." Listen to your mother, she was right. In fact she gave yourepparttar 123010 best advice you will ever get about how to get ahead in this world. If you can see it, you can do it.

Now you say 'Andrew, that sounds all fine and good, but have you ever got this thinking stuff to work?'

"Yes I have!" In factrepparttar 123011 reality of this web site isrepparttar 123012 result of my imagining what could be done and then seeing allrepparttar 123013 parts in place and how they will fit together. At this time it is not complete, but I know what I want to see in place and how I will get it done. It is something I did with my brain, butrepparttar 123014 results will be with my hands.

Limber Up The Neurons Let's do a very simple exercise so you can try it out for yourself. Look aroundrepparttar 123015 room you are in. Find something that someone made. Take a wooden chair for instance. Go back in your mind and seerepparttar 123016 tree that was growing inrepparttar 123017 forest. All green and beautiful. A trunk straight and tall. Then a lumberjack comes along with his or her chain saw and goes about cutting it down. Later a large piece of equipment comes along and gathers uprepparttar 123018 tree trunk that has been trimmed to a log and takes it to a lumber mill. Atrepparttar 123019 millrepparttar 123020 tree is cut into boards with a huge circular saw sorted, stacked, graded and finallyrepparttar 123021 boards are placed in a kiln to dryrepparttar 123022 wood.

Heated steam driesrepparttar 123023 wood and then it is taken out, packaged by grade and then shipped to a furniture maker. Atrepparttar 123024 furniture factory there are people who receiverepparttar 123025 materials fromrepparttar 123026 trucking company that broughtrepparttar 123027 wood to them and then againrepparttar 123028 lumber is inspected, sorted and then each piece goes through a manufacturing process. The legs, back, bottom supports, and back slats are all made by individual workers. Atrepparttar 123029 end allrepparttar 123030 pieces come together and a worker assemblesrepparttar 123031 parts and getsrepparttar 123032 chair ready to be finished.
