The power of the human mind is undisputed; it goes back to the teachings of Aristotle, and is one of the fundamental images of humanity ? the person with the plan solving the problem, getting play in myths from Theseus to Batman. The power of mind is also a power you can harness to create the life you want.
In the last few years there has been an interesting concept called the ‘law of attraction’. This came about by the book and film called ‘The Secret’ which deals with the idea of ‘the power of mind‘. It basically says that it is our own minds which are actually manifesting what we are experiencing now. What we are thinking about and imagining will actually happen. Even if you don’t believe in it, it is true. If you consciously make an effort to change your life it will happen, if you imagine it happening first!
If you’re having a hard time believing it, here is a great example of mind power at work. Many medical research performed involves the subconscious mind and the Placebo Effect. This is where you have a couple groups that are formed from volunteers that are paid for going through the experiment. They all suffer from the same problem, but separated into 2 groups and given two different pills. One group is given the real medicine and the other is given a placebo. The best part about it is neither group knows that one of them is getting something different. Then the medical team studies the results.
It’s amazing to see how those who only got a placebo are able to cure their ailment. Then of course there are others who believe hear about the side effects, take the placebo and somehow end up with even the rarest of kinds. It’s just one of the many ways we can prove how powerful the subconscious mind can alter your life.
Correlation is not causation, though there are a lot of people who try to link the Law of Attraction to some quantum mechanical effect. Going too far down this line will make your head hurt, either from the quantum mechanics or from the way the terminology is being misused. Ultimately, this drives into solipsism if you look at it too deeply, and that’s not what the Law of Attraction is about.
Unfortunately it’s not as simple as it seems. Take for instance the person who wants to lose weight. You spend 24 hours a day fighting off those thoughts in your head that say, ‘Well if I only have one it will be okay.’ Eventually one of them hits home and you find yourself off your diet. It’s definitely not a fun situation, but with the proper training you can overcome these obstacles.
One thing you should keep in mind though is that you can have a goal for anything. Self-improvement is one of the best things for someone to accomplish. There is just a certain feeling you get when you shed a couple pounds, tone your body, or just change your personality. Whatever the case is for you, we always recommend trying something small in the beginning. What you’ll end up doing is taking advantage of affirmation to change your life.
Once you get the smaller projects complete, then it will be time to move onto bigger and better things. What’s the first thing that comes to mind for you? It might be different, but most people dream of having a nice house. It’s definitely in the top 3 major decisions you’ll have at least once in your life. The only question is; how are you going to go about getting it? The affirmation that unleashes the power in the subconscious mind will put everything in motion. Well, as long as it’s a positive thought process.
Some people are aware of the power of their mind; they focus on tasks, they set goals, they make lists, and they follow through them. You can see them ? they’re the ones who always seem to have a plan and who always focus on what’s around them. Everything they do is aimed at furthering that goal, and with their mind and will ruling their passions, they have a palpable air of success. This success isn’t difficult to emulate ? it’s very simple. It just requires clarity of purpose and focus.
Just remember it all happens for a reason. Maybe you just think people are rude around the area you live. Then one day you get a flat tire and can’t understand why in the world something like this would happen if you’re thinking positive. All of the sudden you come in contact with several different people who are helpful, curious, and concerned about your situation. Guess what? Your outlook on the people around you has changed all because of that flat tire.
We could give you so many examples it could take up a whole other article. The point is you can do whatever you want to do if you put your mind to it. You’ve probably heard this many times before, but without the knowledge of understanding the way it works you overlooked the meaning. So find yourself a goal and give yourself the affirmation needed to make it happen.
What it comes down to is that you can train your mind yourself, or let someone else do it for you. We recommend taking the first route and controlling your own destiny. In the end you’ll find all kinds of power within the subconscious mind. All we need to help you do right now, is get started.
