This is my 100th post on this blog!
I know I could have had a list of my best posts and things like that, but instead I thought I’d write a very detailed post about changing your subconscious programming.
However, let me remind you that no blog post will do the same work as a coach would, since if I had you in front of me (or over the phone) I would be able to listen to you and ask you questions, but I’ll do my best to help and guide you in the right direction.
In last week’s post I was talking about why we don’t always agree with our own actions. Why our brain says do this and we end up doing something different. Why we may have all the qualities necessary to succeed, and yet we end up failing time and time again.
If you are just landing on the post, I suggest that you go read this post first and then come back here.
So, today I wanted to focus on the solutions to this problem, but first, let’s go a little deeper than we did in the last post and understand more fully how this all mechanism works.
Mind – Body – Results
This is a very simply concept, yet very few people understand it. When people don’t understand this equation they tend to see only the third part of this equation which is their results. If only they went to the source they would be able to change such results.
So let’s dissect each part of this mechanism, and see how it all works very clearly.
What is the Mind?
The mind is this part of the human being that you cannot see, touch or hear, yet the mind is the most important part of the human being. Without the mind there is nothing.
The mind includes our subconscious, our conscious, our thoughts, our intuitions, our desires, our fears, our emotions, our joy, our sadness, etc. All of these are included in the mind. The mind is what keeps the machine (the body) alive and moving. Without our mind, we don’t even exist.
According to those who have clinically “died” for a short time (meaning that all their vital signs had completely shut down) and came back to life, as well as people who can communicate with those whose body has died, the mind never dies. Only the body does.
I have never medically died before and I have never communicated with passed away people, but I am very much convinced of that because I’m been seeing and hearing proofs.
What is the Body?
The body is a multitude of molecules that vibrate at a certain rate and keep everything together (physically). The body is the vehicle that the mind uses to experience things.
We are not a body with a mind, we are minds with bodies. We are spiritual beings that can experience physical things through this vessel called the body.
The body moves where the mind tells it to.
What are Results?
Results are expressions of the mind given through the body. We experience results dictated by our subconscious mind, our thoughts, our fears, our desires, and many other sub-factors that are within the mind.
Results are just that, results. The cause of such results is the mind.
But how is our mind shaped?
What is the Paradigm?
Paradigm – Subconscious
Now if you look at the literal definition of the word paradigm this is what it says:
- A typical example or pattern of something; a model.
Our paradigm is the pattern or model that we have been made of starting the day we were born.
Why do you speak the language you speak? It’s in your paradigm and it happened by living around people speaking that language.
Why do you like the food you like? Most likely because you grew up around people making and eating this type of food. It’s in your paradigm.
Did you grow up in a loud family? Chances are you’re probably loud. It’s in your paradigm.
Whatever you grew up with and around became part of your paradigm whether you wanted it or not, and whether you liked it or not.
But looking at it closely, how was this paradigm created? By simple repetitions. Every day, every week, every month and every year, year after year.
This is how your paradigm became part of your subconscious.
This is why you can never forget your mother tongue, no matter what you may do, where you may live and how long. Because that language that you learned as an infant and a toddler is now part of your subconscious.
For example, even though I’ve been living in the US for 20 years and may spend weeks without speaking French, I still dream in French at times. Even if you’d put me under a rock for years I could still start a conversation in French with less effort than I’d ever would in English. This is why if I’m mad at another driver while driving alone in car I may express it in French. The French language is part of my paradigm and part of my programming.
Whatever language you grew up speaking is in your paradigm – it’s in your subconscious.
I’m using languages as an example of how deep is our paradigm, but it’s not only the case of your mother tongue, it’s also about everything else in the environment you grew up in.
So this may bring about the question…
Is There such Thing as Genetic Predispositions?
I decided to add this paragraph because someone was actually asking me the question last week. Are we born with pre-programming? Is part of us dictated by our genes?
Well, just like we may have physical features and resemblance to our parents or siblings, as well as some character traits, we may also have some predispositions as well, but that doesn’t prevents us, in any way, to change that.
You may have inherited a long unattractive nose form one of your parents, but you can surgically change the shape of that nose, don’t you? Yes, it will take extra efforts and the skills of a surgeon – a specific procedure – but as we all know that is possible, isn’t it?
Well, it’s also possible to change any genetic behavior you may have.
But how?
Changing your Paradigm will Change your Results
Changing Paradigm = Changing Results
Have you ever used the expression “I changed my mind?”
When we used this expression is to express the fact that we will do something different than we had originally thought of. Thus the expression. We change our mind into doing something different. If you didn’t “change our mind”, there would be not different action – no different result.
What do we use to change our mind? Well, we use our conscious mind. We make a conscious decision to do so.
But when was the last time you’ve make the decision to change your mind about the big things – the ones that are in that paradigm of yours?
Do you go there sometimes and try to look and find what does and what doesn’t serve you? You know a bit like we do when we do spring cleaning at home. We throw away what doesn’t serve us anymore, and we keep what does. Have you ever done that with your mind?
I started doing this in a very big way about 8 years ago. One by one I started getting rid of very heavy baggage that I was carrying around for so long. I changed my paradigm in so many ways, all the way to some pretty deep beliefs that I had. If you had known me only a decade ago, I was a totally different person in many ways.
You can truly remove beliefs from your mind, and replace them by new ones. You can change your mind about absolutely everything and anything.
In some extreme cases we hear that sometimes even with people who have been dangerous murders, have learned to totally change their mind over. Their whole paradigm changed. Their body is still locked up for life, but their mind is no longer the same, so they become kind rather than evil.
Conscious Decision
Conscious Decision – Conscious Awareness
What ever you want to accomplish in life starts with a conscious decision and awareness. There is nothing happening at all without these two factors. As a matter of fact, this is so true that things in life may just totally pass you by just because you are not aware of them.
For example, do you know what is the real difference between you and a psychic?
The awareness.
Yes, there is a part of special abilities, skills and practice, but it all starts with the awareness of certain things that you are not aware of. You simply can’t master something you’re not ever aware of.
In order to change you subconscious programming you need to start becoming aware now!
Start practicing in your mind eyes that you are simply floating above yourself, and observe what you’re doing. From testimonials of people who have clinically died it’s the first thing they experienced, they floated about their body and could see it.
You see, your mind is way bigger than your body and it can do that, not only when you’re body is dead, but while it’s alive too. What is your body doing right now that’s not serving you? What could you be doing different? In what direction could you bring your body to change your results? Where could you redirect your body to change your state of mind?
This is the exercise I want you to practice this week. Learn and practice the detachment of your mind from your body, and observe. Then I want YOU to tell me what you’re seeing.
By the way, this is where a live coach become very helpful. As I said at the beginning of this post, there’s so much I can do with an article, but I hope that this deeper explanation was helpful. If not, please, don’t be shy to let me know, and ask any questions you may have down below.
