As you study successful people, they all agree a big part of the reason they are successful is the ability to harness and tap into their subconscious mind, so hold your breath we are going to deep. We are talking about programming your mind for success. I know this works, I use it with my children as I teach those sports and have them visualize and program their mind. And they come to me and tell me how successful it is and they do it with their friends. And as we've talked about before, the universe will not reward you physically, until you believe it mentally. As we go down this road to success, understand that we only need to improve a little bit every week. Think about it, if you improve your life your conditions, your finances by mere one percent to two percent a week. You could easily be doubling your income every year. One of the trump cards, one of the real important items is the subconscious mind. Let me as you ask a question, "Why do you think, the real world or the university type fold, why do you think a lot of people don't talk much about the subconscious mind?" Because it is a big piece they don't understand and what else, the ability classified and put in a box and says here it is maybe a little to simple. Tell your mind it will work and it will, it doesn't make a lot of sense on a logical standpoint, but its amazing to me if you study the success tactics and study autobiographies it all comes back to the subconscious mind and programming it and how it works. I want to spend a little time about how it works and how to program your mind and Napoleon Hill in "Think and Grow Rich" talks about two levels of mind, theres the conscious mind which can be your logical mind and the subconscious mind which can be your emotional mind. And what he says is that every impulse of thought that reaches the conscious mind. Whenever we are thinking or doing anything, those thoughts are classified, recorded, and thats where our thoughts are recalled from and so our subconscious mind is always on and always functioning. Its never idle, so you need to be careful throughout your life that you don't put your mind on cruise control and some thoughts will make you successful and some thoughts will take you the other way. Many times when you are thinking about someone, you think, "wow, how did I start thinking about that" many times it is your subconscious mind. I want you to write on your paper or notes, the words "TEA" just like the drink tea and understand that it is very important to understand that what that stands for is that your thoughts control your emotions and your emotions control your actions. I'll repeat that, your thoughts control your emotions and your emotions control your actions. And so it all comes down to your thoughts. Your thoughts can control your heartbeat, the things you think about, your heartbeat and your blood pressure. It all comes back to your thoughts and what you are programming your mind to do. One of my favorite stories just as you talk about the subconscious mind and finding the answers there is with Mark Victor Hanson and Jack Canfield as they were trying to brainstorm the title to their book the first title I think, jack came up with "Happy Little Stories" and they knew that the title wasn't going to work and so every night before they went bed for 300 times or 400 times I believe they would say, "Mega best selling title, Mega best selling title" 400 times before they went to sleep to program their mind to find the answer to put it out there to the Universe and it was Jack who came up with the idea in the middle of the night that the best selling title was going to be "Chicken Soup for the Soul." And he called Mark in the middle of the night and said, "Oh great" and then he went back to bed, but that is what it came down to is they programmed their mind every night before they went to sleep. Conclusion
Persuasion is the missing puzzle piece that will crack the code to dramatically increase your income, improve your relationships, and help you get what you want, when you want, and win friends for life. Ask yourself how much money and income you have lost because of your inability to persuade and influence. Think about it. Sure youve seen some success, but think of the times you couldnt get it done. Has there ever been a time when you did not get your point across? Were you unable to convince someone to do something? Have you reached your full potential? Are you able to motivate yourself and others to achieve more and accomplish their goals? What about your relationships? Imagine being able to overcome objections before they happen, know what your prospect is thinking and feeling, feel more confident in your ability to persuade. Professional success, personal happiness, leadership potential, and income depend on the ability to persuade, influence, and motivate others. |
