Autosuggestion

Auto Suggestion

The Medium for influencing the Subconscious Mind

In reading Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill I have once again realized just how important my thoughts are. In his 3rd Chapter on Autosuggestion, Napoleon states that autosuggestion is plain and simple self-suggestion, another word for self talk.

If you are like me I engage in self talk all day long. Some of the self talk is positive and some of it isn’t. This self talk is what is totally influencing my life. Whatever is the dominating thought at the moment – that is what is being fed into my subconscious mind. My subconscious mind isn’t picky; it will accept the negative just as easily as the positive. Napoleon uses the idea of the mind being like a garden. Imagine a garden overrun with unsightly weeds. That is your subconscious mind being feed by negative thoughts. Now think about a garden filled with beautiful spring flowers, flowers of every color and vibrant with life. Visualize them swaying in the afternoon breeze and the sun shining down on you and the garden. That's the subconscious mind being feed by positive thoughts. It is our choice as to what we will think about. When you reflect on the past, do you choose to think of hurt and regret or do you remember the good times, the laughter, and the positive aspects of life. Every moment of every day is a choice. Do I want weeds or flowers? It is a simple choice but so, so hard to do.

Another aspect that Napoleon mentions repeatedly is that our thoughts need to be emotionalized with feeling. Just reading or writing something is never enough. I guess our subconscious mind doesn’t like a bland diet. He states that “You will get no appreciable results until you learn to reach your subconscious mind with thoughts or spoken words which have been well emotionalized with belief.” This makes sense to me. In the past when I have tried visualization and writing my desires, etc I just did the writing or thinking in a neutral sort of way. I never really felt a passion about anything I was writing or desiring. I guess I was basically just going through the motions. Napoleon says we need to really concentrate on our desire. We need to fix all our attention on the desire with our eyes closed. Concentrate until we can actually see the physical appearance of the object of our desire. We should do this at least once a day. This is something I have not done in the past. But you can be assured it will be something I plan to do from now on. I do have a burning desire, a passion, a definite chief aim/purpose in life. I can see it, feel it, taste it and touch it in my mind. I need to concentrate on it at least once every day with all the passion I can muster.

Do you have a passion, something you want to have, do or be? Is this something you want so bad you can hardly stand it. If so, autosuggestion might be a method you should use to help achieve it. One of the tools I am using to help achieve my dream/desire is Empower Network. Empower Network is helping LOTS of people achieve their dreams, and they are achieving them in record time.
