Understanding Your Mind's Energy and Being Your Own Leader

(Part 1 of 2)
​There are essentially three aspects to consciousness, specifically, the subconscious mind, the conscious mind and higher consciousness or Source Perspective. Each plays a pivotal role in creating your circumstances, so understanding how the three are inter-related is fundamental to truly harnessing the power of your mind. Being familiar with what is meant by consciousness will go a long way in enabling you to consciously “Being Your Own Leader” in creating your realty.
Consciousness is the very foundation of one of the most powerful resources you have at your disposal as a Leader – your mind. It is the most familiar and yet most mysterious aspect of your life. Without it you could not experience life.
With this blog post, we are focusing on the makeup of the Subconscious Mind. The subconscious is the incredibly powerful program that runs every aspect of your life automatically and without any need for your conscious input. Simply put, any thought, message or order that is given to the subconscious often enough and convincingly enough will, in time, be accepted as truth and consistently be carried out with exact precision irrespective of whether it benefits you or not. The most important thing you must know is that it is subjective in nature. This means that it cannot reason or distinguish between positive and negative.
When thoughts are conveyed to your subconscious mind, impressions are made in the brain cells. As soon as your subconscious accepts any idea, it proceeds to put it into effect immediately, drawing on the infinite power, energy and wisdom within you. It lines up with the Laws Of Attraction to get its way. Sometimes it seems to bring about an immediate solution to your difficulties, but at other times it may take days, weeks, or longer. This intriguing process enables us to eventually receive the communication from Source Perspective that we await.
The subconscious mind’s inability to reason is not a weakness. It is, in fact, fundamental to its power. Imagine if your subconscious had to decide whether or not your heart should pump blood around your body, whether or not to immediately send white blood cells to heal a wound, and whether or not to walk each time you consciously wanted to walk.
The subconscious mind’s subjective nature is responsible for every function you carry out automatically without conscious thought, from digesting the food you eat, to healing a broken bone, to speaking your native language, to driving your car and brushing your teeth – ultimately all your habitual actions. It is the stockroom of your memory. It never sleeps any more than your heart sleeps. Were it able to reason, your body would be unable to function and life as you know it could not exist.
Its power is also its weakness because its lack of reasoning ability means that it is equally willing to carry out negative programs as it is positive, with often devastating effect. The true potential of the subconscious mind may be limitless, but potential alone is more detrimental than useful when the programs carried out are negative. Given its inability to judge right from wrong, it cannot be held responsible for the negative programs it relentlessly carries out. Who then is responsible?
Stay tuned in to learn about the conscious mind and higher consciousness, or Source Perspective, and how they work as a team with subconscious to become responsible for change.
