Change your subconscious thoughts by using affirmations and routines
From Waking Times: 1. Positive Affirmations & Mantras – An affirmation is any statement that you affirm or speak. A mantra is an affirmation or phrase that is repeated over and over. When you repeat a positive affirmation, it is eaten up by your subconscious mind, making a lasting impression. Some examples of positive affirmations that you can repeat are:
“I am filled with peace, harmony and joy.”
“My positive thoughts produce positive things.”
“I love myself and everything that is around me.”
“I am becoming a star of positivity”
“I am becoming a star of college studies”
You can say affirmations for a set amount of time. Also, try repeating them in your head throughout the day. The more you say your positive affirmations, the better your results will be. Make up your own. NOTE: If a negative or mean thought comes up in response to your affirmation -- "Yeah, right!" or "No way" -- say the affirmation again with EMOTION, and say it FIVE TIMES. Emotion is the key; without it, your affirmation is just words. That should cool off the negative responses. 2. Create positive habits and routines – If you have a job, then you have developed a routine. Your subconscious mind has accepted the fact that you will and must go to work. This is because most people associate having a job with being able to live within society. Knowing what you know now about your subconscious mind, you can begin creating habits and routines that will fuel your soul and ignite your spirit. Create positive habits and routines like:
meditation
eating healthier (alkaline diet, vegetarian/vegan, replace a meal with a smoothie, drink more water etc.)
artistic expressions like painting, drawing, cooking, decorating, sculpting and such
Eventually, any activity or practice you partake in will become what we call second nature. Remember, anything you try that may be difficult or awkward initially becomes easier with time and practice.
From Dr Marie Forleo: Step 1 is that after you recognize what the resistance you are having is, you need to stay humble.
Step 2 is to get specific and really narrow in on what your subconscious mind is looking out for. You'll interview your subconscious mind and really get into to the details. Step 3 is that you need to make a promise to work things out with your subconscious - not to work against it. Step 4 is to dowse your subconscious mind with positive examples and case studies of people whose lives have improved as a result of getting what you want. The point here is to let the subconscious mind know that it's possible to satisfy all sides of your heart and mind.
Your Subconscious Mind -- Excerpts: Brian Tracy
Your subconscious mind is like a huge memory bank. Its capacity is virtually unlimited. It permanently stores everything that ever happens to you.
By the time you reach the age of 21, you’ve already permanently stored more than one hundred times the contents of the entire Encyclopedia Britannica.
Under hypnosis, older people can often remember, with perfect clarity, events from fifty years before. Your unconscious memory is virtually perfect. It is your conscious recall that is suspect.
The function of your subconscious mind is to store and retrieve data. Its job is to ensure that you respond exactly the way you are programmed. Your subconscious mind makes everything you say and do fit a pattern consistent with your self-concept, your “master program.”
Your subconscious mind is subjective. It does not think or reason independently; it merely obeys the commands it receives from your conscious mind. Just as your conscious mind can be thought of as the gardener, planting seeds, your subconscious mind can be thought of as the garden, or fertile soil, in which the seeds germinate and grow.
Your conscious mind commands and your subconscious mind obeys.
Your subconscious mind is an unquestioning servant that works day and night to make your behavior fits a pattern consistent with your emotionalized thoughts, hopes, and desires. Your subconscious mind grows either flowers or weeds in the garden of your life, whichever you plant by the mental equivalents you create.
Your subconscious mind also practices homeostasis in your mental realm, by keeping you thinking and acting in a manner consistent with what you have done and said in the past.
All your habits of thinking and acting are stored in your subconscious mind. It has memorized all your comfort zones and it works to keep you in them.
Your subconscious mind causes you to feel emotionally and physically uncomfortable whenever you attempt to do anything new or different, or to change any of your established patterns of behavior.
You can feel your subconscious pulling you back toward your comfort zone each time you try something new. Even thinking about doing something different from what you’re accustomed to will make you feel tense and uneasy.
Good men and women are always stretching themselves, pushing themselves out of their comfort zones. They are very aware how quickly the comfort zone, in any area, becomes a rut. They know that complacency is the great enemy of creativity and future possibilities.
