How to get the most out of your brain

The Secret Pathways to Lasting Success Part 2: Universe of thought



Well, when I said brain what I really mean't was mind. The brain is an organ but mind is activity, you can't touch the mind, you can't see it. The mind is a Universe of Thoughts.

So what does universe of thoughts mean? Are you saying I can see thoughts with a telescope or something?

Not exactly. A universe is a system, and a system is the confusion that hits you when you pop open the lid at the back of your wrist watch, or the bonnet of a car, I know most  guys won't admit it but yeah, that's a system. A set of different parts that work together and depend on each other, you get what I'm trying to say.

That's what your mind is like, a system of thoughts, a universe of thought, I like to use the word universe, it sounds cooler. So where am I going with this? The only way to have any real transformation in your life is to change the thoughts in your mind.

Look at it this way, lets say you have an old worn out shoe, so you go to the guy who sits by the bridge repairing shoes and tell him to put a new sole on it, and he does. So you see your shoe with a new sole but the worn out leather is now looking out of place, so you go back to the shoe repair guy who sits by the bridge, and you ask him to put a new leather skin on your shoe, and he does. So you happy now, new sole and new leather, well technically it's now a new shoe, but yeah, your old shoe has become new!

That's how you change your thoughts. Fire all the thoughts that don't promote your success and employ new ones that do. Before you know it, you will have an entire staff of new employees fired up to make the company of your life very profitable.

If a certain department of your life is not working out, find out which set of thoughts are in charge of that area and fire them and get a better team on board in that department. It's simple, isn't it?

The only problem you might encounter in changing your thoughts is that you may be associating certain thoughts with your identity, and you think that's who you are. And maybe your underlying hidden fear will be to lose track of who you are if you change those thoughts.

For example some people are so used to a life of pain and hardships that they cannot imagine themselves without pain and hardships. Their system of thoughts will shoot down any good opportunity coming their way, it will make them late for that job interview, it will get them to delay in sending that quotation, it will make them forget their partner's birthday. The very kind of thought system that needs to be fired.

The truth of the matter is you are not your pain, you are not your situation or circumstance, you are not your thoughts, neither are you your past or your future ambitions. You are not your likes or your dislikes, you are not your personality, those things are NOT what defines you. You can totally change your thoughts, and even your entire character (if necessary) without losing who you are.

That's because you are existing life, that's who you are. You can change your name and still be you, change people you spend time with and still be you, change your complexion Michael Jackson style, you can even change your sex and still be you. Think about it, we always say your hand, your body, your heart, your brain, your mind...but..who is the owner of those things? Can you see them? Can you touch them? See, you are existing life, untouchable and eternal.

You can change your universe of thought and get one that makes you happier and successful, one that makes connections with the right people, people who build you; one that doesn't show up late for business meetings; one that is faithful to the one you love and sees all the value in that one; one that... you get the idea.

Always remember that any thought that you hold in your head for long enough will always seek a way of outwardly expressing itself. Thoughts become thinks, what a man thinks so he becomes.

Transform your Universe.

I wish you success.
