now most of us in North America like to
think that we run our lives in a very
rational manner but of course if you
think about it for a moment that’s far
from me actually actually from the truth
isn’t it for example no one needs to
come to me to ask them find out how to
lose weight it’s obvious isn’t it you
just eat less and exercise more well why
aren’t more people doing it because
something else is going on it’s not just
the logical decision to eat less and
exercise more we don’t do that there’s
something else that’s going on is the
subconscious part of our mind you can
think of this part of your mind as the
hard disk now just do a hard disk of a
computer and when you’re born it’s blank
now this hard disk of your subconscious
mind has an amazing processing capacity
it’s processing the data at the rate of
2.3 million bits of data per second
because of that staggering amount of
information it needs to organize it
somehow what it does is it organizes all
that information in two sets of beliefs
and habits well habits I don’t know
that’s any automatic behavior those of
you who are drivers will probably know
that sensation of leaving home and
arriving at work or the shopping center
and if you’re honest so you think well
what happened I was at home and now I’m
here what’s happened is you subconscious
mind is that don’t worry about driving
this killer machine down the highway
I’ll take over doing that you can use
your your time to think about whatever
it is that you’ve got to make decisions
about with your conscious mind it
establishes this information two sets of
beliefs and what I mean by beliefs here
are the most fundamental beliefs you
have about yourself and the way the
world works such as am I good enough am
i lovable am I intelligent enough do I
deserve success is the world a safe
place those beliefs influence every
single aspect of our lives with are the
relationships we have how well we do in
school how successful we are at work and
so on the way they do that is that all
this information that you’re seeing
hearing touching tasting it’s all
filtered through these beliefs and the
outcome is a perception
of reality of what’s going on out there
