Are you currently struggling to reach your objectives? Do you have everything in life that you desire? Is it easy for you to reach your goals after every success? Are you always calm and patient? Or are you frustrated, angry and disappointed at your lack of progress in life? If you are not living the life you wish to live, the is a solution. And the solution lies in your mind!

Your mind has two parts, the conscious thinking logical part and the unconscious part. Your conscious mind is that part of your mind you are using right now to read and analyze these words. However, it is the subconscious part of your mind that is interpreting the symbols on the page and telling you what they represent. This part of your mind is more powerful than you can imagine and can help you in ways that seem miraculous at times.

Everything that has ever occurred in your life is stored somewhere in the subconscious part of your mind. It is literally an unlimited warehouse for memories and emotions. This is an extremely important aspect of the subconscious mind. You need to have instant access to this stored information so that you can find your way home, remember names and faces, how to do your job etc. And while that is very convenient and useful, the subconscious mind does have major disadvantages!

Not only does your subconscious mind store valuable information, it also stores essential emotions. The subconscious stores the emotion of pain and fear connected to certain activities that you’ve done in the past, such as the unpleasant feeling at the dentist, or scorching yourself with fire. When you find yourself getting too close to fire and feel the heat on your skin your subconscious mind will immediately alert you with a feeling of fear. This mechanism is designed to keep you safe and works very effectively. It also works to your advantage by replaying positive emotions connected to certain situations – think of a time when you caught a glimpse of your spouse or child, heard a piece of music or smelt some perfume or aftershave and were immediately reminded of an earlier time that evoked strong loving emotions.

Therefore, we can view your subconscious mind as acting, in its simplest role, as a recording and playback mechanism – a bit like a fully interactive video recorder. The things that occur to you in your life are recorded and then played back when you access those memories. The problem that often arises though is when incorrect or inappropriate emotional memories are accessed by the subconscious mind when you find yourself in new situations. If your subconscious mind has been “programmed” with negative emotions or a negative self-image then these are the things it will play back to you when you try something new or reach out past your comfort zone.

So, how do we fix that? We reprogram our minds to show different images! Research, visualize, rehearse, adopt. We must research our goals so that we can replace our doubts with comforting facts. Researching provides knowledge and can lead to a solid plan to begin making our dreams a reality. Visualize yourself doing the things you’ve always dreamed of doing. Being able to visualize ourselves carrying out the tasks makes the goal more attainable. Goals are birth in our minds before they manifest in reality. And now, we rehearse. We can write or script our ideal lives and repeat the visualization process as we take the steps to live the life we really want. The more we rehearse, the more vividly the goal becomes. Then we adopt a new mindset. We must begin to embody that which we want to become. Thinking, speaking, and behaving the way that we must behave to truly become who we are meant to be.

Your dream life is possible, boo! It’s all in your mind.

Until Next Time, Beautiful Souls!
