Subconscious mind
Your subconscious mind is enormously powerful. When you use it properly, it can help you to move more rapidly toward the achievement of your
goals and desires than you ever dreamed possible. You can use your subconscious mind for creation or destruction - for good or for evil. You can be a
prince or a pauper, depending on the way you operate it. To fulfil your potential, you must learn how to access it at will - and use it for your purposes
intelligently and constructively.
We are often convinced that the only way to make money is to work longer hours or even harder at the work. Eventually we learn that the belief that
we can only improve our life by longer hours and harder work leads us down a blind alley. The answer is to work smarter - to use more of our mental
powers than our physical powers to achieve our goals. Successful people are those who have learned how to operate their conscious and subconscious
minds in harmony enabling them to get the things they want far faster and with much less effort. This discovery changes the focus of our efforts and the
direction of our entire life.
Your subconscious mind plays many different roles in your life. We can classify its functions into 5 different areas.
1. It maintains and balances the well-being of our body. That's why our body is self-healing in nature. It has the power to heal any form of diseases you
can think of. It is the fundamental of all so-called alternative therapies.
2. It protects us and sometimes our love ones, from emergencies or dangers.
3. It is the mega-memory bank. It stores all our past experiences.
4. It is like a magnet. It has the power to attract things that resonate with its beliefs.
5. It is like radar. It sends and receives information to and from the super-conscious mind. This is the function that we are going to discuss further in a
moment
Your sub-conscious mind contains everything you have ever received into your mind by way of the senses, every smell, every taste, every feeling, everything
you have ever seen, done, heard and thought. There are some that even declare that your sub conscious contains memories of sensations and experiences that
occurred before you were born into this world. Under hypnosis, patients have been able to remember events and feelings from earliest childhood, memories
that their conscious power of recall would not permit to surface.
Super-conscious mind
Napoleon Hill called it the Infinite Intelligence. Scientists including Carl Jung called it the Universal Mind. Some books or metaphysics gurus sum everything
up as the Unconscious Mind. The term Super-conscious Mind is widely used by Brian Tracy, and I prefer to use this description.
What’s important is what it can do for you. Page204
