Why is one person sad and another happy? Why is one person joyous and prosperous and another poor and miserable? Why is one person a success while another an abject failure?The answer to these questions is very simple. The secret is the marvellous, miracle-working power of your subconscious mind. This is the last place most people would look for, which is the reason why very few people discover it.
Conscious and subconscious are merely two spheres of activity within one’s mind. The conscious mind is the reasoning sphere that chooses and makes all your decisions. On the other hand, involuntary functions like breathing and the functioning of the heart are carried out by the subconscious mind.
So, how exactly does our subconscious mind work?
It is as simple as this: successful people think and talk about what they are creating, and unsuccessful people focus on and talk about what they’re lacking.
So how do you bridge that gap between wanting success and having your success? Let’s make an important distinction. You see, there is a big difference between “Wanting” and “Having” something.
Wanting: means lacking or absent. Deficient in some part, thing or aspect.
Having: means to possess, to hold, to get, to receive, to experience.
You can have one OR the other, but not both at the same time with any particular object of your desire. You either have it or you don’t.
When it comes to your subconscious, if you’re focusing on the “wanting”, i.e. the not having, guess what, you will build stronger neural networks in your brain around the “wanting.” However, through the power of your subconscious mind, you can focus on the “having” as if it has already happened. Research has shown that your brain doesn’t know the difference between what you’re visualizing inside your mind versus what is happening out there in your reality.
When you turn your goal over to the power of the universe and just get out of the way, you will always know the right actions to take at the right time.
Starting today, try tapping into the incredible power of your subconscious mind. Start with just one goal or idea, and practice it continually until you succeed in achieving that goal. Make it a game and have fun with it! The more lightly you hold it, the easier it will be to achieve. By doing so, you will move from the “positive thinking” of the hopeful person to the “positive knowing” of the totally successful person.
