How To Program Your Subconscious Mind To Form New Habits?

Why are most of us not living the life we always wanted? Why are we not truly content with ourselves? Want to become our best version, but not really breaking the habit of being yourself?


Have you ever wondered?


Well, it can be mainly because of the habits we want to inculcate in our lives but are not able to. As they say, your present habits determine your future! We try with all our willpower and motivation but fail to form new healthy habits and how to be at peace with yourself. 


Not to mention, when it comes to the manifestation of your thoughts and feelings, your subconscious mind is the boss. Yes! It makes or breaks things in a massive manner. 


We cannot achieve success in our life without having our subconscious minds aligned with the desired actions. In this whole tussle of the conscious and subconscious mind, almost 95% of the time, the latter wins, and how!


Because….


Your subconscious mind is the most powerful. It processes some of the deeply involved functions in our body without us realizing it, like our digestion, breathing, and more. It influences our biology like nothing else ever can.  


That’s why,  one must know how to program their subconscious mind to serve in that very direction of habit.Well, you can also give a quick read to: Breaking the habit of being yourself!


So, how can one program its subconscious mind to form new habits?


Start small! Make small goals!


Yes! It’s the most effective way!


For instance, you want to build a habit of daily reading. So, don’t go for fifty books initially, rather start from only one book at a time. That too, just read a few pages a day. 


Slowly, but gradually, you start enjoying the process, and your mind also gets used to this habit, making it easy for you to sustain that. 


Besides, the human brain is built in a way that it gets bored very easily while doing something repetitively. And, as we all know- what is a habit? Repetition of similar tasks without much effort! Thus, it will be crucial for you to find what genre of books you really enjoy so that daily reading becomes your second nature. 


Also, proceeding further in this flurry of making small changes, one must deeply comprehend the different facets of habit building. 


What is a habit?

How do habits form?

How long does it take to break a habit?


By finding the answers to these questions specifically for yourself, it will become so effortless for you to sustain new habits. 


Eventually, it’s about finding what you truly love doing and want to invest your time in. 


And, believe me, it’s worth your time and effort!

What is Happiness – and Other Inanities

I know, I know. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of articles out there describing happiness and what it means, how to discover what makes us happy etc. etc. I’m not here to talk about any of that. Let’s play a game instead. Ready? And I want you to really play it, not just read it. Let’s begin. Think of someone you admire or love. This person could be a fictional character from a favourite book or TV show; they could be a celebrity, an entrepreneur perhaps. They must be someone though who is not accessible to you in daily life. You don’t have any chance of meeting them or speaking with them but you really wish that you could. Have you thought of someone? Okay, good! Now, take a few minutes and make two lists – five questions you want to ask this person and five things you want to tell them. And as you jot each down, imagine yourself asking or telling them these things; imagine also their reaction. How would they respond to your questions? What would they say to your sharing? I wan...

A Self-Important Life

  “Modesty is the colour of virtue.” The essence of this saying by Diogenes, a Greek philosopher, has likely shaped our growing-up years. Indeed, to be modest and humble was the very definition of a talented person. The more intelligent one was the more modest one was expected to be. Like anything though, modesty is best had when served in moderate doses. Swing too far the other way and we’ll hit the first of the building blocks that make up our personality – self-esteem. Why is self-esteem important? Quoting Brene Brown, an American professor and author, “Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we are supposed to be and embracing who we are.” High self-esteem naturally breaks down barriers and allows us to step into vulnerability. And what is vulnerability? Accepting ourselves as we are at any given moment. The more vulnerable we allow ourselves to be, the more authentic we become. And this root of being oneself stems from the value we give ourselves – in...

How to Get Rid of Bad Thoughts

  A few years ago, I read a life-changing book. It was called Fast-track to the Stars . Allow me to briefly give you the essence of it. There once lived a monk who had two homes. One was a hut deep in the Himalayan Mountains. The other was a loft in downtown New York City. She lived a life of two extremes – six months of the year was a pristinely quiet and slow life in the mountains, the other six a fast-paced and harried life in the city. The two lives were so different; it was hard to even begin to correlate the two. Where she would softly bathe in a gentle stream near her hut and drink directly from it when she was thirsty, she would have a hurried shower and purchase bottled water for $1.50 near her apartment. Where wild fruit and her own organic vegetable patch sustained her food intake in the mountains, pesticide-sprayed fruit and wilted vegetables with marked-up pricing got her through in the city. Where her slow mornings in her hut would begin at 5:30 AM with the sunrise; a...
