Did you make a new year’s resolution this year?  Or, perhaps, thought about making some different life choices for 2019?  And with those decisions, have you already experienced difficulty keeping them?  Maybe you didn’t make any decisions to change because you already know that they are just too difficult to keep.  Nothing changes, so why set myself up for failure.  If these are your New Year thoughts and experiences and you want a different successful experience, then I have a treat for you.  

What if, you knew a few mind tricks that could put YOU in charge of your success rate?

 YOU will be in CHARGE!   Would that change things?   Then read on…… This power lies in your unconscious or subconscious, two words that relate to the same part of the brain.  It’s your hidden power of success.  

What is the difference between the conscious and subconscious mind and why is it so important to your success?

We live predominantly in our conscious mind which, by the way, is only 10% of our brain power.  We use our conscious mind to look, listen, learn, reason, judge, analyze, criticize, accept, and reject all information we take in through our senses. Whew that’s a lot! Also within this 10%  of our conscious mind is our will power.  The will power that we rely on to make some of our most important changes has only 10% of our brain power.  The subconscious mind holds 90% of the brain power and its primary job functions are as follows: handles all bodily functions, stores all our long term memories and also our beliefs, habits, emotions and reactions.  These beliefs, habits, emotions and reactions were most likely programmed into the subconscious mind, between  birth and 8 years of age, before the conscious mind was developed enough to filter out the negative and erroneous’ information.

Think about it, 90 percent of your brain power is running on programming set up before you reached your 8th birthday!

Then those programs were reinforced with every circumstancing event thereafter. And you wonder why you struggle with will power to make lasting changes?  You are fighting against 90% of your brain power that has been engrained, empowered and reinforced throughout your entire life.  All is not lost. There is hope.  There is one more primary function of the subconscious mind.  And it does this function very well and we can use it to our benefit….The Subconscious mind loves to act out any image and emotion it is given.

Why is this so important?

Our subconscious mind doesn’t care what program it is given to run so, in lieu of another, it will continue to run the most powerful program.  Ever hear the saying, strongest emotion wins?  Emotions created those powerful programs that are keeping you stuck. Now, all you have to do is create a more powerful Emotion with a picture to overwrite the existing program.  Simple right?  Make the powerful subconscious mind work for you instead of against you.  

So how do we do this?

First, create your why. (Finding your why will engage the emotion) Why do you want to change?  Make a list of all the activities of your new changed life.   You want to create a mind picture or, better yet, a mind video of your new life including all the senses and feelings and emotions.  So for example let’s pick weight control.  Ask yourself, if I am at my desired weight / shape, what would I look like? Picture that and now let’s build on it. What would you be doing?  hiking more, walking more, going, doing, being more? Picture that and let’s continue. What would you be wearing? Perhaps a nice dress or suit that shows off your great shape for date night? (Or insert your why here)  Where would you be going? Now as you are building these pictures in your mind, incorporate the emotions.  Cum on, you are at your desired weight and shape.  There must be feelings and emotions of satisfaction, confidence, empowerment, self mastery. etc.  Now build  the pictures into a movie Experience! You want to experience your new life with all the senses in your video.  As you build in all the feelings and emotions, what do you feel, see, hear, and smell?   Go inside yourself and imagine the new you, with all the emotions of your being you in your new life. Play this video a few times building and increasing the feelings and emotions each time. 

Now Step into your new you as if you are that new person in the video and experience it now as You.   Play this video several times continuing to increase the feelings and emotions.  If you are not smiling and feeling excited you are not there.  Really get into that state of you being the new you.  Be grateful for the new you.  Love yourself.  Remember this state. You will want to come back here often.

  Perhaps create a word or short phrase for this new mind video’s emotional state.  Something that will empower and remind you of your ‘new you’ experience. 

Second, now that our mind video is complete, your job is to play it as often as you can.  Especially during these times: 

Upon awakening or soon thereafter to set the tone for the day.  Play your mind video, and don’t forget to engage the emotional state, to get you into a positive motivated state first thing in the morning.  Also, play your video experience every time the old defeating program, habit or emotion pops up its ugliness into your life, Stop it immediately by either saying Stop It in your head or picture yourself holding your hand up and use your empowerment word, play the mind video and use this as a subconscious mind retraining moment. (this may take some practice so don’t give up on yourself) Finally, the subconscious mind loves to accept new programming at night during sleep so before going to sleep, repeat your video experience.  This will reinforce your new program.

In conclusion, you now have the keys to unlock your limitless potential to change anything you want.

You have access to your hidden power of the subconscious mind.  What you can do with this is limitless.  You can create health, prosperity, wealth, anything you want.  Be patient with the process, please.  Remember you are working to overcome very powerful habits and programming that have been operating for a long, long time.  It takes 21 days to change a habit and even longer to permanently replace it. Keep at it. You can do it!
