Listen "The Opportunity: 95% Of Your Thoughts Are Unconscious"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, John and Kelly discuss the concept that 95% of your thoughts are unconscious. And that is actually a huge opportunity. Your success in life as well as your enjoyment of life comes down to the thoughts that are going on in your head most the time. But why is that. Why do your thoughts determine your success. It’s because your thoughts determine each action. And your actions create success in your career, in your marriage, and in controlling your health. But here’s the opportunity. 95% of your daily thoughts are unconscious. And that’s actually a good thing. Because if they were conscious, you’d have to spend all your time consciously trying to control your thoughts. You wouldn’t have time for anything else. But the fact that they are UNCONSCIOUS is the opportunity. To control your thoughts you simply have to influence the mechanism that is generating your thoughts. Your subconscious mind, and your autopilot. You do that by repetition. Feeding to yourself each morning the succinct articulation of your life. Exactly the person you want to be, exactly what you want to accomplish, and precisely how you’re going to achieve your clearly defined goals. Takes 12 minutes a day. If you do that, you gain control of your thoughts and your success in life. As to credibility, you’re applying the central concept of the top book in the world on success to your life. Think and grow Rich. After John and Kelly cover all this, then they get into showing the audience examples of the different thoughts one has control of. Relative to their career, to their romantic relationship, to controlling their health. The take away is the fact that 95% your thoughts are unconscious is truly the opportunity for controlling your thoughts. By simply influencing the mechanism that is generating your thoughts, your subconscious mind. And you do that through repetition .About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn’s story is pretty amazing.
