The Power of the Subconscious Mind is a motivational classic written by Dr Joseph Murphy. After so many years, this book is still relevant in today's context; more so in today's world where we are so stressed up and feel pessimistic of our current economic and political situation.This book explores the hidden potential in each and everyone of us. It assures readers that, you should never feel despair. You will recognize the hidden power that is all along within you. When you learn how to harness and apply this power, you will know how to overcome all your negative thoughts and emotions. You will have the confidence towards life and pursue what you understand deep in your heart, is the best for you in life. These include gaining your financial abundance, developing a cordial relationship with everyone and building a healthy body.
So what is the hidden power of your subconscious mind? Dr Joseph Murphy explains that our mind is divided into 2 spheres - the conscious part of our mind and the subconscious part of our mind.The conscious part of our mind is our mental state when we are alert and are consciously aware of what we are doing everyday. When our conscious mind is active, we use our reasoning and logic when making decision in our daily processes. Thus everyday, we are constantly making decision when we are working, when we are planning our future, taking care of our health and even while we decide the paths to take in our relationship with our friends, family and with everyone we have in contact with. But that also inadvertently invites us to be consciously think about and be aware of the fears, anxiety, frustrations, anger that happen in our in everyday lives. The thing is, if you become too alert and in turn become too anxious and sensitive to happenings around you, will may develop these fears and worries even before they happen. That means that you are using your logical thinking to imagine all the negative circumstances that MAY happen. Then you will start to overwhelm yourself with all these negative emotions even before knowing whether they WILL EVER happen!
Day 1: 4 hours, 7 orders,Day 2: 6 hours, 4 orders,Day 3: 6 hours, 6 orders,Day 4: 6 hours, 7 orders,Day 5: 6 hours, 5 orders,Sum: 28 hours, 29 orders,I would say thats pretty close to 1 order per hour. Today, she worked for 5 hours, and I suppose you can guess how many orders she ended up with. If you answered 5, you were right! Lets explore this a little deeper. Day 1 was her first day on the phone, and she had seemingly no clue as to how many sales she could expect. The interesting thing is this: She had been sitting with me the day before listening to my calls. I had been working on the phone 6 hours that day, with 11 orders, and accordingly thats what she based her results on the first day. Knowing that on her first day she worked on the phone for 4 hours with 7 orders, thats pretty similar to the result I got the day she was listening. The problem is that everyone else has an average of one order per hour, which she experienced during her first day on the phone. So her second day on the phone, her sensory factors (hearing, in this case) had already picked up on that fact, and she started to adopt the belief everyone else around her seemed to be in love with; an average of 1 order per hour. Thus her result the second day was far from as good as her result the first day, and the result came close to 1 order per hour (10 hours, 11 orders). But the most interesting part is day 3, 4, 5 and 6, where the exact average is 1 order per hour.
You may have discovered that the most appropriate answer is never derived from what you consciously and anxiously forces your logical mind into providing it to you. Instead, it usually comes to you in an unexpected, or you may think, a miraculous way. The answer arrives when you let go and decides to take a slow walk; or even when you are taking a relaxing bath. When your mind is clear, when you rid yourself of the fears and worries that crowd your mind, and when you gradually relax yourself, you will cherish the moment when you can connect deeply with your subconscious mind for your answer. This solution may come to you as an imagery. It may even be a "light bulb" moment that will lead you to the appropriate steps to take. To build on this, your solution may come from a recent or distant memory of similar circumstances that have resulted in a desired outcome for you previously. The answer could also appear as a flash memory of an incident, a person whom you have met that you know instinctively, is the solution to your problem.
The question remains; how do we steer this autopilot to different results? Lets take money as an example here and lets say we never have any money left at the end of the month, which was my problem for years. Linking cause and effect, that comes from the belief that I never have any money left at the end of the month , which is a belief based on results. Just like my employee believes she delivers an average of 1 order per hour. We change this belief through repetition, mixed with faith. What we want to do is replace the old belief with a new belief that says; I always have money left at the end of the month. As stated in a previous section of this article, the subconscious mind cannot distinguish the difference between reality and imagination. So if we start telling ourselves that I always have money left at the end of the month and starts to believe that its true, it will eventually be considered a truth to our subconscious mind.
When our subconscious mind believes something to be true, we will act accordingly to that belief. This is also called a habit. Various self-help books and movies state that it takes 21-30 days to form a new habit, or replace an old habit with a new one. Theres no hard evidence, as far as I know, that backs up this theory, but for the sake of simplicity on an already complex topic, lets assume this to be true. We want to involve as many of our sensory factors (hear, feel, taste, smell and see) as possible, as these are factors that influence our subconscious mind. Wanting to form the habit of always having money left at the end of the month, we could print a bank statement dated the day before our payday and write the exact amount of money we would like to have in our bank account at the end of the month. In addition, we could also stand in front of the mirror repeating to ourselves out loud that I always have money left at the end of the month or even better; I always have (X amount of money) in my bank account at the end of each month .
So now do you understand why most of the law of attraction teachers advocate you to meditate frequently and practise self hypnosis to manifest your goals and dreams? By meditating and applying self hypnosis, you will be immersed in a deeply relaxed state. You will then be able to connect to you subconscious mind to convey your intention and get your answer easier than cracking your brains using your conscious thinking. But we should not dismiss the fact that conscious thinking is still important in your daily routines.
For example, when you first learn to drive a car, you are consciously aware of everything you are doing. But when you have trained your subconscious mind to drive, you will drive a car automatically - you may not even be aware that you look in your mirror before changing lanes, or that you put your indicator on when turning, or that you change gears, or that you put the clutch down when you change the gears.
It could even become a life changing moment when you connect yourself with higher consciousness. She may gift you with the plans and steps on how you can achieve your higher purpose in life. This is not a joke. Just like in the movie "The Matrix", we may be too choked up with the "realities" in our lives that make us stressful, fearful, anxious or frustrated. This resulted in us feeling trapped and afraid to pursue our true passion in life - a purpose that we know deep in our heart is best for us.
This is where your connection to the subconscious mind is so powerful. When you constantly convey your intentions to the subconscious mind, you will slowly learn to have faith in life and take on the opportunities that she has presented to you. When you believe in the power of your subconscious mind, you will no longer doubt that she will connect you to the like-minded people, circumstances, events and resources to fulfill your heart-felt desires.Writing down your goals, using visualization and positive affirmations are some of the best ways to communicate your intention to your subconscious mind. But have you been applying these techniques correctly to create the success that you want to achieve? Better yet, are you aware of certain methods that may even speed up your goal manifestation process?
