The Mind and The Brain

The mind and the brain are two separate things. Most people believe that the mind and the brain are the same. I am here to tell you they are not. So lets go on with it. The mind is what is around you or what some would call your continence or your inner being some would even say it is your sub- conscious and conscious mind. Whereas the brain is the actual organ that holds your mind. With that being said I know most of you reading this your teach ability index just shot to zero because this is a hard concept to understand. I will continue anyway.

What if I told you that "Thoughts are Things"? What would you say to that? How would you react? Secondly, what if I told you that your brain is a transmitter and receiver of vibration or energy or frequency?



Albert Einstein believes everything is energy. Look at the quote above. I will take this a step deeper. All things are made up of atoms. From your body to a house to a car. These atoms are just in  different combinations. The quote above also says "Match the frequency of the reality you want..." How do we do that, by using our brain. It is the transmitter and receiver of frequency.

I am using the term frequency because it is proven that everything oscillates at a certain frequency. For example: A opera singer hits a note and it shatters glass windows. That is because the voice matched the same vibrating frequency as the glass. You can also look at You Tube and listen to different frequencies called binaural beats. Allegedly, each frequency helps harmonize the body. There is also a great movie called "What the Bleep Do We Know" check it out it talks a whole lot about how the brain works as a transmitter and a receiver of frequency. Here is the great thing about the brain and the mind we as humans know very little about either, but everyday there are breakthroughs that most alleged scientists just disregard because they are closed minded. Just explain to me this How does a radio work? How does the signals travel through brick and mortar, steel, and concrete? How does your cell phone pick up a signal through solid structures? This is what scientists cannot answer because they don't even know. All I can say is this nothing is solid go past the atomic state there are gaps between the electrons, neutrons, and the nucleus. However there is no proof visually through a microscope because we have not created one yet. However, we have proof every day that it must be true because if your radio, t.v., and cell phones.

The Leap

I finally got tired of being tired. I knew there was more and I wanted it. After, all of the information that I had learned in the beginning I got a craving to learn more about having, being, and doing anything I wanted. I bought over 20 some books from authors such as Napoleon Hill, Zig Ziglar, Norman Vincent Peele, and many others. The information blew my mind. In just a few short weeks I had read several books that showed me something that I never knew was there. Actual Reality! I was amazed. I have found what I was looking for. A new understanding, a new perspective on my life. It gave me hope.

With this new found hope, I learned that some laws of nature are superseded by other laws of nature. For example: the law of gravity is superseded by the law of lift. The law of lift is how airplanes fly in the air. But there is still another law that is still stronger than both the laws of gravity and lift. That is a law that Napoleon Hill understood from the tutelage of Andrew Carnegie and the secret that Earl Nightingale recorded back in the 1960's. This law is called the law of attraction.

 

The book I first learned about this was in The Law Attraction by Jerry and Esther Hicks. Where they stated  the "Like Attracts Like". It also teaches the basics of the law of attraction and how you can use it to have be or do anything in your life.

Final Concepts: Before the Leap

The final two concepts I had to learn before I just took the leap was a training scale and the four steps to learning. First, the training scale is comprised of two things. One side is the thoughts, the other is the actions. Most individuals believe that this has to be balanced. What I mean is that you do as much action as thinking. However, this is not true. Thoughts is 99.9% of anything you do. Napoleon Hill said it this way "What ever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve." So, what this means is if you can think of something you can be do or have and bring yourself to the point of believing that you are going to get it without any doubt you will get it.   



I will go more in depth on this in later posts.

The final concept is the four steps to learning. I came across these a second time in a book called The New Psycho Cybernetics. The four steps to learning are:

• Unconscious Incompetence: You don't know what you don't know.
• Conscious Incompetence: You know that you don't know.
• Conscious Competence: You know but you have to think about what you are doing. For example: most people put pant on one leg at a time pull them up fasten them then go. But if you remember when you first learned how to put them on you had to think in steps I put my left leg in first, then right leg, then pull them up, then fasten them.  
• Unconscious Competence: You know with out thinking. Muscle memory or some would call autopilot. For example: You just put on your pants without thinking about the steps.

These steps really opened my eyes to that I am not that smart. I actually dumb for thinking that I knew everything. One thing that these concepts, who do you listen to, teach ability index, training scale, and the four steps to learning, have taught me is to never stop learning and that I am not that smart.

The Will to Learn

Do you have the will to learn? Do you have what it takes to start from the beginning? What is you willingness to change?

This next thing I learned was where did I stood on learning and accepting change. It is a index or a scale that my advisor taught me called "Teach ability Index." This Index comprises of two things: How teachable are you? and Your willingness to accept change? This is the crutch of learning new information.

For me, I was willing to learn. I was willing to give up anything! I wanted to learn everything I could on anything and everything teaching me what I was doing wrong in my life and how to correct it. I was thirty something with no future and playing endless mind games with inmates. I was a corrections officer at a state run facility when I started learning this information. I  felt lost and I knew there was more to life than the old rat race.

 As for my willingness to accept change, it was difficult because I had to break all of my old habits and old ways of thinking. No human being likes change but if you have the will to learn you have the will to change.

To quote a film line that I think is appropriate right now. "What is the essence of man?" ask yourself this question.



Take this above picture, what is the essence of this picture? What does it tell you? What does it convey? How does it touch you? I can answer all three question with in one word: CHANGE!

Nature is an never ending battle of change. The leaves fall in the winter then reappear in the spring. The water evaporates then comes back as precipitation. The bird lays eggs to bring forth new birds. See, even nature changes from day to day, month to month, year to year.

So ask yourself again "What is the essence of man?"
