Change your thinking and you’ll change your life
When you take control of your mind and your thoughts you can have the type of life you really want. You need not be controlled by anyone or anything else. It’s really important to understand just how much the sub conscious really does mind controls your life.
You can choose to be confident, successful, healthy and happy. OR you can be choose to be a victim, miserable and wallowing in a sea of negativity. If you think like a victim, you’ll act like a victim and this will never empower you.

We become what we think about and this is what all great leaders agree on, even though there may be other things they can’t agree on. And e we become addicted to our habits, just think how many things you do habitually every day. How many of these habits are hindering you and keeping you from the life you really want? These are called our paradigms,
What’s the definition of a paradigm
Paradigms are deeply ingrained habits and beliefs that run our life. They are beliefs, messages and ideas that we’ve downloaded into our subconscious without even being aware of it. As babies we are continually taking in information, what we see, hear feel etc. And we don’t know if it’s good or bad it comes from parents and primary care givers.
And these paradigms are not easy to change but it can be done if you’re willing to do what’s necessary. When you do this everything in your life can change for the better, you have to decide what you really want instead.
Amazing facts about the brain
I haven’t just read a couple of books, watched a couple of videos or gone to a seminar or two. For me it’s 
been way more than this that’s peaked my interest and my decision to learn more on the subject.
As I recall when I first became interested in the brain and how the mind works it brings back memories of a very difficult time. It was because of a tragic accident that my son’s best friend had when he was about to graduate from High school.
Before that event any idea of the conscious and unconscious mind wasn’t something I’d given much thought to.
How the brain works information is now more available.
This young man’s name was Alan and he and my son really were the best of friends. Alan would spend a lot of time at our home hanging out and often staying over. He’d even said to me, “you’re my second mum”. Alan was just 18 and it was graduation that week.
He was driving to school on a beautiful sunny morning when he was in a head on collision with a big truck. We got a call with the devastating news, and that his condition was critical. The hospital confirmed that he had very serious head injuries. And for us to be prepared for the worst as it wasn’t expected that Alan would survive.
It was even announced on the local radio that he had died but we knew differently, he was critical but still alive.
Coping with real life challenges
My son was absolutely devastated as were we all. Many of their friends from school came and gathered at our place. They came and went, some stayed around waiting, talking, sometimes sleeping, occasionally eating, all waiting to hear the latest news.
You just feel so helpless and inadequate in situations like this.
Alan didn’t die then but he was in a coma. He had broken bones, cuts and he was in a real mess, but those would heal over time. But worst of all was that he had severe brain swelling and brain damage. In a short period of time he underwent a number of surgeries.
How long can someone be in a coma
My son was able to see him very soon after he arrived at the hospital. It was to give him a chance to say goodbye to his best friend as they didn’t think he’d survive. The rest of us were able to see him a few days later. To see this strong, tall, handsome young man so beaten up and in a coma was such a shock. It was touch and go for a long time.
And several weeks later he was still in a coma but they moved him into a ward. We went daily to see him and talk to him even though we didn’t know if he could hear us. It really was a terrible time. Alan lived for about a year, there had been some signs of hope but he never really came out of the coma. Then he got pneumonia and passed away.
How does the brain work
It was during those months of waiting that I was wondering if there was anything more we could be doing for him. All of this was happening at a time before we had the internet to search for information. But I knew a nurse living near me so I started asking her lots of questions. And she would recommend resources so I started reading about the brain and real cases that had happened.
We wanted to know what would happen if Alan came out of the coma, was there a chance he could have his life back. Could he possibly be his old self again or was his brain too damaged?
Moving on with more understanding
Also we wondered what the chances were that he could hear us when we talked to him, which we did constantly. We’d tell him what was going on in the world, with friends and whatever just hoping that he could hear us. His friends had taken his favorite music and items from Grad for him, the usual things people do in these situations.
All of this happened over 25 years ago. So much happened during those months but the outcome was still tragic.
The power of the subconscious mind
For many of my early years I never gave much thought to the brain other than the fact it was an important and vital part of us. And I had not considered the difference of a conscious and subconscious also known as the unconscious mind. Or to appreciate the real power of our subconscious mind, and how it can hold us back from living life to the fullest.
Since that time I’ve learned so much more. I’ve trained in a number of programs all related to Personal Development. And everyone of them involves self growth and the power of our mind. Once you better understand how your mind works and how you can control your thoughts you’ll understand we have a choice of how we live. We begin to realize that we actually have the power to change our life for the better.
The paradigm shift will permanently change your life
From the time we are born we are downloading information, we take in what we repeatedly hear and
see around us. This information is coming mostly from our parents and or primary care givers. All of this information creates our reality known as our paradigm. Our paradigms control how we do everything.
But as mentioned earlier it doesn’t mean what’s being downloaded into our minds at the time is necessarily good or the best thing for us. We’re forming our beliefs and habits and repeat things our parents do. Our paradigm/habits can be very limiting and prevent us having what we want from life.
However the good news is it doesn’t it have to remain that way. We have the power to change our mind and change our paradigms.
Old habits are hard to break
The challenge is replacing old habits and beliefs with new ones. And that has to be done the same way they got there in the first place. This happens through repetition. Doing something over and over again or listening to something repetitively.
When you understand this you become more aware of why people struggle with certain issues. Such as addictions, trying to lose weight, relationship and financial issues etc.
Does self hypnosis work
Another way that can help you with this is to repeatedly listen to hypnosis tracks. The words you hear are filtered into the sub conscious mind where all these old paradigms reside.
have you noticed how when you decide to do something on a conscious level you may tell yourself and believe “I can do this.” And yet you get so far and end up quitting or something happens. This is the old paradigm taking over and telling you that you can’t do it and why you can’t. It bring up all your doubts, fears and insecurities keeping you stuck where you are.
Are you ready to change your paradigm
You have to learn to change those old limiting messages with new and empowering ones. This doesn’t happen overnight it takes time. But until you understand what’s going on this it won’t happen.
If you are ready to change your paradigm and to learn from one of the very best I would recommend learning from the best and that’s Bob Proctor. If you’re not familiar with Bob he is one of the contributors of the amazingly popular book “the Secret”. I would suggest doing some of Bob’s courses and definitely the Paradigm Shift which is a live event but also offered streaming which is almost like being there.
The paradigm shift is the answer
Bob really is amazing, he’s been around for many years doing this work. He’s in his mid eighties now and just continues to get better, he has so much wisdom and knowledge to share. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed his courses and got so much out of them. It will open your eyes and you will begin to see what’s possible for you too!
