A commercial for the United Negro College Fund which aired frequently in the’80s used the slogan ‘the mind is a terrible thing to waste’. We’re not talking about college educations here today, but this is a slogan which is absolutely true. Your mind has lot more power than you might think; and the power of the mind is indeed a terrible thing to waste. When you can access the power your mind contains, you can use it to change the world around you for the better.
You’ve certainly heard about the law of attraction; the idea behind the book and film ‘The Secret’. Whatever you put your mental energy toward will come to you is the message of the work. Whether you do so consciously or not, the power of the mind is such that you can make whatever you focus on happen, whether for good or ill.
In a way, you can see this effect at work in clinical trials where it is known as the placebo effect. It’s all about mind over matter. When you think about something; rather, when you believe in something, the power of the mind can make it happen.
You’ve no doubt seen the effect in your own life as well. For instance, you’ve no doubt woken up thinking that a particular day isn’t going to be a good one. It shouldn’t really be too much of a surprise when these days turn out not to be among your favorites. It has to do with the power of your mind – when you think a day is going to be a bad (or a great one) then your subconscious has the ability to make this happen.
There is an increasingly large body of scientific evidence which suggests that there is a basis for this phenomena in the laws of physics. A surprising idea comes from the world of quantum mechanics which suggests that matter (which at its most basic level is simply energy) exists only when being observed – suggesting that our minds may have more influence over the universe than we have let ourselves believe in the past.
Many scientists now believe that many things which we think of as supernatural are in fact explainable through hard science, although we’re only beginning to understand just how it is that telepathy, ESP and other mental phenomena work.
You may not have really given it any thought until now, but the power of the mind is something which you can put to work to make positive change in your own life. Wouldn’t you want to learn how to work with the universe to get what you want using your own thoughts? There are a few techniques which can help you to do just that; keep reading to learn more about these methods.
The first step is to have a goal; this has to be a specific, rather than a general goal. Instead of thinking ‘I want to be rich’, think ‘I want three million dollars’. Having a specific goal makes it easier for you to focus your mental energies on achieving your objective. Learning to focus is the key here; most of the time, you may have dozens of different thoughts going on at once.
Many people already know about the power of the mind and use it every day to make their goals a reality. They are able to decide on a specific goal and put all of their mind power towards this objective – and this is exactly how some of the world’s most successful people have managed to become who they are today. It’s not difficult to do, though learning to focus your mind on your goal does take a little metal training.
When you learn to control this power of the mind, you can use it to make changes in your world; in fact, you can make almost anything you can imagine a reality. Let’s say that you want to buy a particular house. You put all of your mental energy into it, imagining even the small details like the color you want to paint the rec room. You start expending effort into areas that will help you to achieve your goal (like working more so you can save up the down payment) and research how to get favorable mortgage terms.
By focusing on this goal and putting your mental energy towards your objective, you can make it happen – don’t be too surprised when your dream home goes on the market and your offer is accepted; and you even get just the right mortgage. It is the power of the mind which has made this come about, not simply good luck.
Every one of us can do this. It’s just a matter of understanding your own inherent abilities and believing in the power of the mind to achieve the things you want out of life. Start with a small goal and you can work from there to accomplish ever greater things.
