We’ve had a number of posts on this site about affirmations for self-improvement and for improving your health. Recently we added Charles Haanel’s affirmation to the affirmation podcast. I believe that affirmations are an effective way to condition your mind to make the things that you decide on acceptable to old programming that may exist in your head. A way to rewire yourself, if you will, to move you in new directions.

Related to affirmations are subliminals. Subliminals are presented just below the threshold of awareness and can be both sound or vision. This product uses your computer to supply the subliminal information that you choose while you are at your computer.

I’m a big fan of self-improvement books and courses. I think each of us owes it to ourselves to become all that we can be.

But reading a book or following a course is so time-consuming. Sometimes I feel that there are so many aspects of my life I want to improve I’ll be an old man before I’ve even changed half of them!

That’s why I was delighted to discover Bradley Thomson and his incredible ‘Subliminal Power‘ website.

Bradley’s Subliminal Power tool lets you achieve all that you want to achieve in a fraction of the time and with absolutely NO effort whatsoever! It’s a little tool that runs in the background on your PC, making carefully constructed ‘suggestions’ to your subconscious while you get on with your work. It’s the mental equivalent of those abdominal exercisers that let you do 3,000 press ups while sitting in a chair!

With Bradley’s technology you can raise your IQ to genius level, develop astonishing powers of concentration and recall, become a ‘natural’ salesperson or public speaker and even ‘command’ your body to lose weight. You can use subliminal messaging to be who YOU want to be with absolutely NO effort on your behalf!

It’s far more powerful than hypnosis … in fact, I’d go so far as to say it’s the most powerful tool for self-empowerment there is.

Check out Bradley’s Subliminal Power.

About Affirmations

“Every day, in every way, I’m getting better and better.” This affirmation by Emile Coue is a well known affirmation. Key in this affirmation is giving up the idea of willing your way. Getting there by will power. We all know the things we should do, want to do — we may even write them out or buy a program that promises success in the thing we want. And yet – we may wake up a year later and realize that somewhere down the road from that resolve that we would conquer – to where we are now – that here was just one more thing that slipped away from us: one more thing we couldn’t accomplish.

So many things we intend, so many things we will, and yet where are we? Think of John Lennon’s lyrics:

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
Ans so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young

John Lennon’s lyrics highlight the good intentions we all have and at years end: “what have you done?”

Will Power

Coue taught that willpower was the the biggest obstacle in life. We will something so and then it is not – so we are failures. Rather than will power perhaps it is better to slide an idea into mind, to allow it to become part of the self. Allow it to trigger a simple and profound law that is timeless – but that I first heard from Tony Robbins: thoughts precede action. An idea repeated becomes part of our thoughts, our lives and it cannot but help to turn into action. Action that we are aware of and action in parts of our bodies that we cannot seem to control. Can you lower your tension level or blood pressure by will? There is ample proof that your thoughts help rule both of these.

If you can accept our premise I’ll leave you with another thought. What kinds of affirmations are going into your mind and affecting you every day? Give that some thought, try out Coue’s affirmation and we will pick it up there in another post.
