Your subconscious mind 's influence goes much deeper than you might expect.
No intended joke.
I 'm sure that when I say that our minds are incredibly complex, you'll agree with me.
You can be shocked, however, by how much influence we have over its programming.
Before I get to it:
Let's take a moment first to consider the fact that your subconscious mind is like an immense bank of memories. Its ability is practically infinite and anything that ever happens to you is permanently stored.
By the time you hit the age of 21, the contents of the whole Encyclopedia Britannica have already been permanently deposited more than one hundred times.
Under hypnosis, elderly people will also recall incidents from fifty years ago, with absolute clarity. Your unconscious memory is fine, virtually. It is your conscious recall which is suspicious.
Your subconscious mind 's job is to store and retrieve data. Their role is to make sure you respond exactly the way you are programmed. Your subconscious mind makes what you say and matches a pattern aligned with your "master program" self-concept. This is why it is so effective to repeat positive affirmations. You can literally reprogram your own thinking habits by slipping into positive and success-oriented sound bites.
This is why motivational practices are so impactful for individuals dedicated to positive thought, such as reading inspirational quotes. Your subconscious will start introducing a constructive trend in your way of thinking and your perspective on life by concentrating your thoughts on uplifting ideas.
The subconscious mind of yours is subjective. It does not independently think or reason; it merely obeys the commands from your conscious mind that it receives. Much as you can think of your conscious mind as the gardener, planting seeds, you can think of your subconscious mind as the garden or the fertile soil in which the seeds germinate and grow. This is another reason why it is important to harness the power of positive thinking to form the basis of your entire method of thinking.
The commands of your conscious mind and obedience of your subconscious mind.
Your subconscious mind is an unquestioning servant who works day and night to make your actions match a pattern compatible with your feelings, expectations, and desires that are emotionalized. In the garden of your life, your subconscious mind grows either flowers or weeds, whatever you plant through the mental equivalents that you make.
Your subconscious mind has what a homeostatic impulse is called. This keeps the temperature of your body at 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, just as it keeps you constantly breathing and keeps your heart pounding at a certain rate. It maintains a balance between hundreds of chemicals in your billions of cells through your autonomic nervous system, so that your entire physical machine operates much of the time in total harmony.
In your mental domain, your subconscious mind often practices homeostasis, by holding you thinking and behaving in a way that is consistent with what you have done and said in the past.
In your subconscious mind, all your patterns of thought and behaving are processed. It has all your comfort zones memorized and it works to keep you in them. This is why making writing SMART goals a daily habit is so critical. After time, it will become part of your comfort zone to remain active and focus on all of your objectives.
Whenever you decide to do something new or different or to modify some of your developed patterns of behavior, your subconscious mind causes you to feel emotionally and physically uncomfortable. Psychological signs that the subconscious has been triggered are the feeling of fear and discomfort. But in the past, it's been working to create certain behavior patterns long before you ever experience those emotions.
One explanation that behaviors can be so difficult to break is the propensity to stick to these patterns. However, you can harness the power of habit and intentionally instill new comfort zones to which your subconscious can adjust as you learn to consciously establish those patterns.
Any time you try something different, you can sense your subconscious dragging you back into your comfort zone. You can feel nervous and anxious even thinking about doing something different from what you're used to.
This is why time management tips can be harder to incorporate at first, but they will remain in your comfort zone until they become a habit or routine. You've reprogrammed your subconscious to work in your favor by doing so.
Superior men and women often spread themselves out of their comfort zones, pushing themselves. They are very conscious of how easily the comfort zone becomes a rut in any environment. They know that the great enemy of innovation and possible opportunities is complacency.
You have to be willing to feel awkward and uncomfortable doing new stuff the first few times for you to develop, to get out of your comfort zone. If it's worth doing well, before you get a feel for it, before you develop a new comfort zone at a different, higher level of competence, it's worth doing poorly.
I strongly recommend considering the behaviors of successful individuals for those looking to extend their sphere of comfort zones, since they are the trends typically followed by the minds of great leaders and thinkers. You will be one step closer to being able to make the same things happen in your life by unlocking the strength of these habits.
Learning strategies to reprogram your subconscious mind will help you believe in yourself, as fear of the unknown will no longer question your faith. But most importantly, doing so will train your brain to be in line with your true wishes, dreams, and goals in life.
The more you get in tune with your subconscious, the closer you will be to success breaking through. You may have an idea for a book, for instance, which has been on your back burner for years. You'll take the next step with the right level of trust in learning how to write a novel, rather than clinging to the dream, but never acting.
Know that:
It is a potent key to success to take decisive action on your proposals. The first step to being primed for action is to liberate yourself from self-limiting convictions or doubts.
