This is one of the most potent weapons in the universe which can either help you or destroy you. It won't be wrong to say that the situation you are in today or the type of life you are living is all a result of the subconscious mind. Let's understand the true nature of the subconscious mind and how it shapes up our lives.

Though some professionals have tried hard, all of recognize the subconscious mind. It is the mind behind our brain. In other words it's the main control room behind all our thoughts and activities. It's your mental make up, the personality you are. You can even call it your conscience which shows you the way out of a tough problem. Your subconscious mind is uniquely yours and you don't even share it with your twin or your child. It's as unique as your finger print. No one can ever find a match.

All of us have had encounters with our inner or subconscious mind. In times of distress and confusion or when you were about to take a decision which could destroy your life, your subconscious mind helped you to realize what you were actually doing. It made you weigh the pros and cons of your decision and made you choose the right path. Nevertheless, there are times that many people are told that they aren't really up to the mark or are not good enough or not handsome or beautiful enough. In other words, subconscious is nothing but your deepest feelings about yourself.

The kind of life you are leading is a direct result of your subconscious feelings and attitude. This means that you can actually make your life beautiful by reprogramming your subconscious mind. When you reprogram your inner most feelings you actually start attracting the life you want. So the best part about this process is that the power to change your subconscious thoughts and attitude and eventually your life is completely in your hands.

Many people use affirmations to help change the way they think. These are positive statements that you repeat to yourself multiple times through the day. You don't have to spend a lot of money on subliminal messaging scripts, you can do this yourself at home and it is very effective. Think about what it is you want to change about yourself.

Lets assume that its weight loss that you are looking for. So, you need to repeat the affirmation that you are your ideal weight instead of thinking about how fat or ugly you are. Write it down, record it, play this affirmation till it becomes ingrained in your psyche and subconscious. Many people even use their affirmations as screen savers and tape it to their mirror. Here you need to repeat it so many times that your subconscious mind accepts it as the truth and starts working accordingly.

With this example, you will start to notice that you will become your ideal weight. If you use affirmations to increase money, you will in fact have more money. You can apply this to anything in your life. It is possible. Perhaps you don't believe me.

Here is an example of how your mind impacts your life, without you even realizing it on any given day. Let's say that you wake up late one day. You say or think, 'It's going to be one of those days.' You take a shower and find you are out of soap; you get dressed and spill coffee down your shirt on the way to the office. Again, you think 'Yep, it is definitely going to be one of those days.' You get to work and you are faced with one obstacle after another again, you are thinking that this is one of those days and you even go as far as to think that it can't get any worse and it does.

There are people who may laugh this off as a coincidence. However, coincidences are nothing but myths, there is a reason behind every happening in the universe. Your subconscious works to give you things that coincide with your deepest beliefs and thoughts.

Recently movies and books on this subject like the 'The Secret' have given it a more scientific backing and made people aware of their subconscious thinking and how it's shaping their lives up. It actually creates the reality we are living in and that is all in conference with our inner most beliefs.

Science especially quantum physics has now provided a solid basis for this fact since through experiments and studies it's been proved that matter and the mind of the observer are linked with some intricate links. This is something the ancients religions have also been saying for thousands of years.

People who have tapped the power of the subconscious mind have also been able to change their reality according to their desires. For example people who wanted wealth have known that visualization and firm innermost beliefs can only make them achieve their dreams and as result have become some of the wealthiest people in the world due to their subconscious mind.
