The Skinny On How Your Subconscious Mind Rules Your Behavior

By Kenneth Sanders


Many people have a hard time controlling their behavior because they simply cannot seem to control how they feel. The thing about emotions and mindset is that it is often ruled by the subconscious, which is why an overall mindset tweak that can influence behavioral patterns is something that is not easy to do. However, it is possible if you know how your subconscious mind rules your behavior.

Now, in order to master the unconscious part of the brain, it is important to break it down first. It is possible to equate this part of the mind to a single big computer database that stores all the old program files needed to run certain applications. All of these quote and unquote files are belief and memories. These beliefs and memories are the root causes of certain behavioral patterns that one may showcase on the outside.

It would be best to explain how this works through an example. For instance, if a young teenage girl suffered from bullying back when she was much younger, it is no surprise that she may portray some insecurities or lack of self confidence due to the traumatic incident. One can say that the traumatic memory may actually be the cause of the certain behaviors that she is exhibiting.

Now, one may actually ask why these memories are so powerful if they are already finished and in the past. Well, it is not really the memories that would create the behaviors but rather the beliefs and perceptions one gets from the experiences. The beliefs that are embedded into the brain would eventually convert to actions.

Taking a look again at the example of the girl who was bullied, the bullying incident can make her have certain negative beliefs in herself that translate to actions. She most likely embedded a certain belief that she was strange or that people really hated her. With that, she may exhibit actions such as isolation or irritability.

That said, a common question asked by most people would be whether it is possible to embed more positive beliefs in the database. The answer is yes because the brain has a type of focus program wherein what one constantly feeds into it will be the one that gets embedded. That said, it is possible to kick out negative beliefs by reinforcing good ones instead.

So one of the things that one can do to change a behavioral pattern would to simply change the embedded beliefs. One way to go about would be to create more new and positive memories that can translate into beliefs. Once these beliefs can be focused on, then behavioral patterns may also change.

If one really wants to change the way he or she acts, then the first step would be to understand the unconscious mind. By understanding how it works, one can go the root of the problem and work upward. This handy little guide will give a brief overview on how powerful the unconscious brain is and how it can control everything.
