How in the world did I get here? Who are these people? Am I dreaming this?
Have you ever asked yourself these questions? If so, why?
Confused yet? Tired of questions? Care to respond?
Why?
Are you thinking? Not thinking? Not caring? Wondering where I’m taking this?
Your mind is ramped up; you’re wondering if you should keep reading this. Of course you should.
Hear
that noise? You know, the noise that is all over your thoughts after
reading the above. That noise that lets you know that your brain is
working; that your thought processes have kicked in and are busily
processing this data.
Conscious thought is
great, but very noisy. Being in touch with your subconscious is to be in
touch with your instincts. Your instincts know exactly what you need to
do and when you need to do it. It taps the brain only when it needs
facts, such as the date of an appointment, how to install a printer
driver, or what temperature to set the oven.
Remember
all the noise from earlier? If you were listening to your instincts,
your thoughts would not have been churning away. If you know it, how
much thought do you really need to give to it, right?
Losing
your mind is not a bad thing, even though the times we use this saying
have made it a negative statement. What losing your mind truly means is
that you are able to live and breathe in this world happy as a clam,
without the thoughts of the mind interfering. Are thoughts of the mind really that bad?
Consider
this: how many of your thoughts include positives, affirmations, the go
get ‘em kid moxie we all have inside? Write down your thoughts, even if
for only an hour. Are they positive? Negative? Showing confidence, or
making you seem as cowardly a rabbit? I bet they are more of the
negative variety. Here’s why.
I learned, not too
long ago, that thoughts are our reaction to things we have friction
with. How many times were you cruising along the highway, listening to
some great tunes, not even aware of the miles that were clicking by,
before suddenly having your thoughts awakened by an extremely slow
driver coming up in front of you? Or perhaps you are
working on a project at work, and get an email from your boss saying to
switch gears. Does your thought process kick in, or do your instincts
seamlessly take in the change of direction and move forward.
So, have you lost your mind yet? You should; it’s freeing and makes for a smooth ride through life.
