The Power of the Positive

Reprogramming Your Subconscious Mind

http://www.squidoo.com/subconscious_mind#module3077364

* Be the guardian of everything that enters your mind - Know that everything you see hear and feel goes directly into your subconscious mind and you must manage the information you allow in. Eliminate negative information as much as you can by limiting the amount of news you read, stop seeing violent movies, read only positive information. Keep the positive information flowing into your mind and your subconscious will naturally become more positive.

* Set aside time for you - Everyone needs time to reflect. Whether you pray, meditate, practice yoga, or just read positive information. Set aside an hour each day for yourself. Your subconscious mind needs to know just how important you are and nothing shows this importance than having time for yourself. Many believe there is not a free hour in the day for themselves. Whether you have to wake an hour early or go to bed an hour later having an hour of peace is an important way to clear your mind and open yourself to the possibilities your subconscious mind can offer.

* Speak kindly to yourself - When you look in the mirror do you like what you see? Do you compliment yourself on your most outstanding attributes? Stop all negative talk to yourself immediately. You are a perfect creation of God and you have beautiful traits that need recognizing. Remind yourself of your great eyes or your winning smile-whatever sets you apart from everyone else in a positive way. Your subconscious will thank you.

* Project Yourself into The Future - The late, great Earl Nightingale created a whole new industry (self-improvement) after a 20-year study on what made people successful. The bottom-line result of his research was simply, “We Become What We Think About.” Whatever thoughts dominate our minds most of the time are what we become. That’s why goal setting is so critical in achieving success because it keeps us focused on what’s really important to us. He then said that the easiest way to reach our goals is to pretend that we had ALREADY achieved our goals. That is, begin to walk, talk and act as though we are already experiencing the success we seek. Then, those things will come to us naturally through the power of the subconscious mind.

* Surround yourself with positive people - Negative people can quickly lead to negative thoughts. Make sure your group of friends are those that love and admire you for the great person you are. Eliminate any time spent with anyone who brings you down. You can’t afford the hit to your subconscious mind simply to maintain a negative friendship.

* Use affirmations to your advantage and the optimum times when your subconscious mind is listening - Immediately upon waking and immediately upon going to bed are the times when your conscious and subconscious mind are closest. It is at these times when you get the biggest bang out of your affirmations. Use positive affirmations at these times to super-program the subconscious. Say affirmations before sleeping and apon getting up - it is when we are closest to our subconscious.

* Write Down The 10 Things You Want This Year - By making a list of the things that are important to you, you begin to create images in your mind. It’s been said that your mind will actually create chaos if necessary to make images become a reality. Because of this, the list of ten things will probably result in you achieving at least eight of them within the year.

* Be Grateful - Oprah Winfrey has done a magnificent job of reminding us all how important it is to have gratitude in our lives. Having gratitude allow us to realize the blessings we already have and keeps us open to receive so much more. Make a list of everything you are grateful for and grow this list as time goes on. On any day when it seems that nothing is going your way refer back to this list and remind yourself of all the blessings you already have. Your subconscious mind needs to know what you are grateful for so it can manifest more of the same for you.

* Write Out an “Ideal Scenario” - Pretend that you are a newspaper reporter that has just finished an interview about the outstanding success that you’ve achieved and the article is now in the newspaper. How would it read? What would be the headline? Write the article yourself, projecting yourself into the future as though it had already happened. Describe the activities of your daily routine

* Maintain a lighthearted/happy spirit - Never allow the pressures of the day to bring you down. Make it a point to be light hearted and happy as much as humanly possible. Dwelling on the negatives of life badly affects your subconscious mind. Keeping a positive spirit will keep your subconscious mind well programmed and open to wonderful possibilities.

* The Three Most Important Things - Decide on three things that you want to achieve before you die. Then work backwards listing three things you want in the next twenty years, ten years, five years, this year, this month, this week and finally, the three most important things you want to accomplish today.

* Make A List Of Your Values - What’s really important to you? Your family? Your Spiritual Life? Your leisure time? Your hobbies? Decide on what your most important values in life are and then make sure that the goals you set are designed to include and enhance them. now that are very successful. Don’t forget the headline. (Example: “Jane Doe Wins Top Network Marketing Award of the Decade.”)

* Ask Yourself Good Questions - As you think about your goals, instead of WISHING for them to come true, ask yourself HOW and WHAT CAN YOU DO to make them come true. The subconscious mind will respond to your questions far greater than just making statements or making wishes.

* Surround yourself with your favorite things - Begin today placing your favorite things in full view in your home. Whether these be family pictures, treasures from your travels or sport memorabilia, always keep these things visible. You should be completely comfortable at home and your subconscious mind will benefit your renewed feeling of comfort and the peace you will have at home when you have your favorite things around you.

* Focus On One Project At A Time - One of the greatest mistakes people make in setting goals is trying to work on too many things at one time. There is tremendous power in giving laser beam focused attention to just one idea, one project or one objective at a time.

* Learn lucid dreaming… Once You Learn Lucid Dreaming, You Won’t Be Able To Wait Until Bedtime
If there was a way you could experience your desires before you actually achieved them wouldn’t that be exciting? Well, there is, and it’s called Lucid Dreaming. Now I’m not going to mislead you. This is not something you can go home this evening and experience but with practice you can experience anything you desire in your dreams. A Lucid Dream is simply dreaming while you know you are dreaming. Many people can remember having Lucid Dreams but, there is a difference between having a Lucid Dream and being able to control your dreams. You need to accomplish the first before you’ll be able to accomplish the second.

*Free Your Conscious Mind for Subconscious to Work
By Enoch Tan Platinum Quality Author
You can be happy to know that to be successful, it is really essential to take more time for enjoyable diversion, instead of working longer and harder. Working smarter means working with your whole mind. Don’t do more work with your conscious mind than is necessary or you are wasting energy. Hold your mind on what you intend to manifest and then go do something else.

Had to share.  :)  Can’t be peachy-keen happy all the time, but it’s my job to live this life to the fullest so the choice is always mine…even if it means a little reprogramming. ;)
