#282: The Power of the Subconscious Mind 

In this "Monday mindset'' episode, I am sharing some of my recent epiphanies and understandings about the power of our subconscious mind.  I recently completed my NLP Practitioner certification and it was such an incredibly eye opening experience and a massive learning curve for me.  Through this process I became certified in 6 different modalities including Clinical Hypnosis, EFT Tapping, T.I.M.E Techniques, Life and Success Coaching.  NLP works so well because your subconscious mind creates your reality. Nothing has any meaning except the meaning you give it or attach to it.  Communication between people means our words make up 7% of communication, physiology makes up 55% and our tonality (how we say what we say) makes up 38%. We can never control how someone receives our message, it is up to them how they receive it. 

In today’s episode we discuss:
1) NLP, the formula for success begins with Cause is greater than Effect.  Learning how to move from living in effect to living at cause was where all of my transformation began.

2) NLP is a model for success.  It’s the blueprint for success and the language you learn to speak to talk to your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind is where 95+% of your thoughts and beliefs are formed.  Think of the iceberg picture and all the work we never see below the surface. This is why long lasting change does not come from “thinking good thoughts”.

3) Your mind is literally where everything is truly controlled. How you move, if and when you take action, what you think, what you feel, how you decide to live everyday life etc.  To access your subconscious mind, you must learn how to speak to it and this is exactly what NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) is.

3) We receive up to 2.3 billion bits per second of information into our world at any one time and we only take in what is important to us.  We then apply our own filters, we delete, distort or generalize the information.  We decide what is important and this depends on where we are at at any point in time. We do this based on things like time, mood, language, memories, decisions, beliefs, values and identity. This represents our internal representation of the information we receive. 

4) This internal representation of how we see things creates a picture in our minds of what we are receiving and our physiology creates our state and our state determines our behaviour and that determines our results.  Our state is incredibly important to how we perceive the information.
