I wish I knew this earlier -THE POWER OF YOUR SUBCONSCIOUS MIND //Joseph Murhpy

today I will summarize a book called The Power of your subconscious mind by Joseph Murphy I've prepared six lifechanging and practical takeaways for you I especially recommend watching the second takeaway where I will explain the mistakes you do that are not allowing you to attract success and money to your life you are probably familiar with this feeling you work hard you do everything you can but somehow you can't get what you want quite worse some somehow you end up getting the opposite of what you want but on the other hand there are some people who

don't seem to be even trying but they get all the money and success why is that why do some people get what they want so effortlessly While others struggle a lifetime without success the answer is in the way they use their subconscious mind before I go further on this topic let me first explain how your subconscious Works takeaway number number one the difference between the conscious and subconscious mind the conscious mind is like the captain of a ship the captain stays on the deck and can see where they are sailing and control everything on the

other hand Engineers who are responsible for controlling the engines and the other instruments can't see what is going on outside the ship they are inside the ship following orders coming from the captain Engineers are like the subconscious mind the engineers do not know where they are going they follow orders they would go on the Rocks if the captain issued wrong orders they obey the captain because he is in charge he is supposed to know what he is doing in the same way your conscious mind is the captain of your ship your body and your environment

your subconscious mind takes the orders you give it based upon what your conscious mind believes and accepts as true it does not question the orders it does not engage in proving whether your thoughts are good or bad true or false it responds according to the nature of your thoughts the subconscious mind is like the soil whatever seed you plant there it will grow soil does not say let me prioritize this apricot seed over another seed and give more nourishment because it will bear fruits one day it grows whatever you plant there without differentiating what seed

you have planted your subconscious mind also doesn't understand a joke it takes you at your word under hypnosis if a practiced hypnotist holds a cup of water under your nose and tells you that it is a cup full of pepper you will start sneezing or if a hypnotist tells you that you are a cat or dog you will start behaving like a cat or dog your subconscious mind does not have the ability to argue or dispute if you give it wrong information it will accept it as true that is why if you repeatedly say to

yourself I can't afford it your subconscious mind takes you at your word and as long as you keep on saying I can't afford that car that vacation that home you can be sure your subconscious mind will follow your orders you will go through life experiencing the lack of all these things and you will believe that circumstances made it so it will not occur to you that you have created those circumstances Yourself by your own thoughts takeway number two you have a fundamental right to be rich don't let anyone make you feel ashamed of your desire

to be rich it is not only good but very good to be rich when your blood is circulating freely in your body you are healthy when money is circulating freely in your life you are economically healthy there is nothing wrong with being economically healthy there is no virtue in poverty it is an illness like any other mental illness if you were physically ill you would realize there was something wrong with you you would seek help and try to cure the condition at once in the same way if you do not have enough money constantly circulating

in your life there's something radically wrong with you but have you ever thought about what is wrong with you and why you can't get what you want for many people there are three key reasons you can can also call them emotions that are holding them back from success reason number one Envy when I was a kid playing with my friends in the neighborhood we would very often see a young guy driving an expensive car with my friends we would all look at the car with envy and then say things like God knows what kind of

illegal things this guy did to buy such a luxury car at a young age or why can such arrogant guys drive a luxury car but not us basically we would would talk all sorts of envious things behind the guy's back without even knowing him or what he does after reading books similar to this one I completely changed my behavior the reason I changed was that entertaining envious thoughts are devastating it places you in a negative position therefore wealth flows away from you instead of to you if you get annoyed or irritated by the prosperity or

great wealth of another then you have pushed wealth away from you remember that that you lose what you condemn you cannot attract what you criticize or Envy would you stay with a girlfriend or boyfriend who constantly criticizes you of course not and neither will wealth wealth is like a sexy blonde girl sitting alone on the bar waiting for the gentleman to compliment her beauty and buy a drink if you approach her and start criticizing her beauty do you think she will go out with you of course not she will talk to the man who knows

how to appreciate her if you have thought envious things about anyone's wealth stop doing it for your own benefit the thought you have about the other person is your thought because you are thinking it therefore you actually create in your own experience what you think and feel about the other person the suggestion you give to another you give to yourself as well because your mind is the source that created those thoughts your subconscious mind records it and plays it back to you these days when I see a young guy driving a nice car I truly

feel happy for him I feel happy that he is blessed to drive such a nice car in my mind I wish him the best and thank him for motivating me and showing me what is possible I say to myself if he can do it I can do it as well reason number two you're trying too hard suppose you were asked to walk along a narrow plank that is on the floor you would do it easily without question but now suppose the same plank was 50 m High between two walls would you still do it probably

not your desire to walk the length of the plank would come into conflict with your imagination you would imagine falling down you might very much want to walk across cross the plank but your fear of falling would keep you from being able to do it the more effort you put into conquering your imagination the greater strength is given to the idea of falling the thought I will use my willpower to overcome my failure leads to failure it's like deciding not to think about a green hippo the decision makes the idea of a green hippo dominate

the mind and the subconscious always always responds more to the dominant idea and since most of the time the dominant idea is failure that is exactly what ends up happening so what is the source of the problem here well the problem is that you are trying too hard never try to force the subconscious mind to accept your idea by using willpower such attempts are doomed to failure you will get the opposite of what you want the effortless way is better you are probably familiar with this situation you go to an exam and you feel as

you know it well but when you face an exam paper your mind goes blank all your knowledge of the subject has suddenly disappeared you can't recall a single relevant thought the harder you try the farther the knowledge seems to run when you leave the exam room the mental pressure eases and suddenly the answers you were hunting for so desperately a few minutes ago flow back into your mind the mistake you made was to try to force yourself to remember so what is the solution then relaxation don't push yourself so hard to find the solution or

look hard for ways to reach your goal just know what the end result will look like and feel the happiness you would feel if you achieved that goal feeling and Imagination are the most important factors for the subconscious mind your new idea must be felt in a finished state if you do that then your subconscious mind will work hard to find ways to reach your goal you will start getting new ideas you will start meeting new people and seeing new Solutions it's super important to be open to new Solutions at these times sometimes we are

so fixated on how the end solution should look like that we don't see the perfect solution presented by the subconscious mind for example a few months ago I had a financial goal to reach I wanted to make a certain amount of money by a certain date so I would visualize my goal and imagine how great I would feel if I earned that much money for a while I thought that I would make that money through my YouTube channel so I focused all my attention on the channel but somehow I could not get any results but

on the other hand I was getting great real estate deals at the time I was not planning to buy a property but somehow I was being pushed toward real estate for a while I ignored it because I thought the best way to reach the goal was through my channel and focusing on real estate would push me away from my goal but after a while the signs got so strong that I had to give it a try within weeks I found myself buying a new property everything went so smoothly and I closed the deal very quickly

the most shocking part was when I was doing the numbers on the deal the amount of money I was going to make was almost 100% identical to the amount I had in my financial goal and let me tell you it was not a small amount and the difference was just a few dollar my mind was blown away I just sat there for a few minutes with a stupid smile on my face thinking how it could be possible even now I can't understand how it happened part of me wants to believe that it was just a

coincidence but a similar thing has happened to me three times and in all three cases the solution came from the most unexpected source and in all three cases the amount of money was almost 100% equal to the goal I had the difference was always a few dollars not a few dollars less than my goal the opposite a few dollars more the moral of this story is to explain to you the importance of being open to new Solutions when working with the subconscious mind and not getting stuck with one solution that you think is right it

is not your job to know how you will reach the destination your job is to know where you are going your subconscious mind will find the best route to get there imagine it in this way when you go to a doctor you first explain what the problem is and then listen to the solution right you don't suggest solutions to your problem if you were that smart and knew the solution you would not come to the doctor in the first place if you have come to the doctor then sit there and listen to the solution finding

the solution is the doctor's job not yours in the same way when you delegate something to your subconscious mind listen to to it and Trust its power reason number three fear I've heard this sentence a lot I said affirmations and did visualizations but I did not get results well it is because you probably indulged in fear thoughts perhaps 10 minutes later and neutralized the good you had affirmed imagine that you got into a taxi and asked the driver to take you to your home address but after a few hundred meters you asked the driver to

take you to a different address after a short period you changed the address again if you keep changing the destination every few hundred meters the taxi driver would be confused even if he wanted to follow your instructions chances are he wouldn't be able where you would end up is anybody's guess it's the same when working with the enormous powers of your subconscious mind you must have a clear idea in your mind you must arrive at the definite decision that there is a way out a solution to the problem as I mentioned a few minutes ago

the idea that realizes itself is the one to which we give the most concentrated attention for example if you have an exam or interview most of the time you will probably think about failure as a result it is a failure that the subconscious mind brings into reality the fear of failure creates the experience of failure here is a technique for overcoming fear suppose you are afraid of swimming begin now to sit still for 5 or 10 minutes three or four times a day put yourself into a state of deep relaxation now imagine you swimming you

feel the coolness of the water and the movement of your arms and legs it is a real Vivid and joyous activity of the Mind this is not idle daydreaming you understand that what you are experiencing in your imagination will be developed in your subconscious mind you will be forced to express the image you created in your deeper mind next time when you swim it is the joy that will surface this is the law of the subconscious you can apply the same technique to other fears such as interviews exams or public speaking takeaway number three how

to visualize your goals the easiest and most obvious way to visualize a goal is to see it in your mind's eye as vividly as if it was alive now you might ask is it possible to see things that don't yet exist and the answer is yes of course we can see things way before they exist this is how the computer or the phone you are using right now came into existence someone saw it before it existed you have probably heard the saying don't count your chickens before they hatch well guess what we humans can count

our chickens way before they hatch Architects do this all the time they see the building in its complete form before it even existed it may be ugly or a beautiful building but it is being first created as a visualization so it is possible to see things before they exist in fact it would be foolish to start something without visualizing and seeing it first in your mind's eye for example imagine you see a man building something and ask him what he is building and he replies I have no idea what I'm building here I am just

putting bricks on top of each other and hoping it will turn out to be something nice you would probably call the police to take away this crazy man so that he does not harm himself and others so it is not just possible but necessary to visualize and see things before they exist the best time to visualize your goal is before you go to sleep or after meditation the reason is that when you are in a relaxed and sleepy State the conflict between the conscious mind and the subconscious mind is reduced which means the subconscious mind

has an easier time to work on your goals another benefit of visualization before sleep is that you give a task to your subconscious to work on while you sleep many people think that you get tired during the day and you go to sleep to rest the body but nothing rests in sleep your heart lungs and all your vital organs function while you are asleep if you eat prior to sleep the food is digested your nails and hair continue to grow in the same way your subconscious mind never rests or sleeps it is always active control

controlling all your vital forces you spend onethird of your entire life in sleep and many answers to our problems come to us when we are asleep many famous people have understood this and have used it very effectively to find solutions to the problems they are facing Nicola Tesla and Albert Einstein are just a few of the many examples take away number four how to receive guidance from your subconscious when you have to make a difficult ult decision or when you fail to see the solution to your problem begin at once to think constructively about it

if you are fearful and worried you are not really thinking true thinking is Free From Fear here is a simple technique you can use to receive guidance on any subject quiet the mind and still the body tell the body to relax Focus your thoughts on the solution to your problem try to solve it with your conscious mind think about how happy you would be about the perfect solution sense the feeling you would have if the perfect answers were yours now let your mind play with this mood of happiness in a relaxed way then drop off

to sleep when you awaken if you do not have the answer get busy with something else while you are pre occupied it is possible that the answer will pop into your mind you do not always get the answer overnight so keep doing it believe that you will have the answer now feel the joy of the answer in the way you would feel if you had the perfect answer your subconscious will respond to your feelings guidance comes as a hunch an inner awareness a strong feeling that urges you to do certain things follow these feelings with

faith and never doubt its power in the book there are several great examples showing how people used this technique to find an answer or solution to their problem the simplest example was one that happened to the author himself the author says he used this technique to find his lost ring after several repetitions one day he got a hunch that he should ask his neighbor Robert didn't make any sense since Robert was just a kid and there was no way that he would know where the ring was despite the hesitation the author asked Robert said oh

yeah I found it a few days ago and put it on the table at home let me go home and bring it takeway number five how to use the subconscious mind for forgiveness life always forgives you it forgives you when you cut your finger by healing the wound when you burn your hand it gives you new skin and tissues life holds no resentment against you it always forgives but we can't do the same we feel guilty for years for the things we did in the past we keep blaming ourselves and feel terrible every time we

remember what we did or said we all have one or two things that we did in the past that we regret and can't forgive ourselves or others maybe you said something to your parents that hurt them a lot or did something to your friends that you shouldn't have done years have passed but you are still feeling terrible if what I just describe applies to you then listen to this carefully scientists tell us that every single cell in our bodies is replaced every 11 months both physically and psychologically do you know what that means it means

that you are reborn every 11 months the person who did something wrong years ago is literally dead now if you are still suffering for the things you did a long time ago then you are blaming an innocent person my friend let me ask you this if you could relive the same event again today would you do and say things as you did years ago probably not right if that is the case then wouldn't it make sense just to forgive yourself and stop suffering for the mistakes of a dead person takeaway number six how to use

the subconscious mind for healing if you create a watch and one day that watch stops working you would know how to fix it right the subconscious mind is like a watch maker it created your body and it knows exactly how to heal and restore all the vital functions of your body whether you are awake or asleep your subconscious mind controls all the processes of your body without the help of your conscious mind your heart beats you breathe Etc if you were forced to operate your body's functions with your conscious mind you would probably die in

a few minutes because the process is very complex the heart lung machine that is used during open heart surgery is one of the wonders of modern Medical Technology but what it does is infinitely simpler than what your subconscious mind does 24 hours a day every day your conscious mind cannot operate your body but it can get in the way of proper operation if you put an ordinary person into the cockpit of a plane he would not know how to fly the plane but he would definitely know how to distract the pilot and cause a problem

in a similar way products of the conscious mind such as worry anxiety fear and depression interfere with the normal functioning of the heart lungs and stomach and cause problems stress creates problems for the harmonious functioning of your subconscious ious mind when you feel physically and mentally Disturbed the best thing you can do is let go relax and slow down the wheels of your thought processes start guarding the door to your conscious mind like a bodyguard guards the door carefully watch all ideas and thoughts trying to enter and only allow the positive ones in feed your

subconscious with thoughts of Harmony Health and peace and all the functions of your body will improve keep your conscious mind busy with the expectation of the best and your subconscious will reproduce your habitual thinking imagine the happy ending or solution to your problem and feel the thrill of accomplishment the feeling of Health produces Health the feeling of wealth produces wealth keep this in mind at all times your subconscious accepts what you feel to be true the dominant idea is always accepted by your subconscious mind the dominant idea should be health and wealth not poverty or

illness this was the last takeaway from the book now a few good words about the book itself overall I think it is a good book and worth checking it out the book is also full of real life stories showing how people used the subconscious mind to reach their goals or heal themselves if you liked this video and would like to watch more then check out the video you see on the screen thanks for watching
