Mentally Fit – The New Fitness for 2013

Inspired by Chapter 4 of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

Darkness is the ABSENCE of light. Cold is the absence
of heat. Neither darkness nor cold have sources,
origins or generators. They are NOTHING.

Likewise, LACK is the absence of PROSPERITY or
ABUNDANCE. Weakness is the absence of POWER. There are
no stores warehousing either Lack or Weakness. They are
Nothing.

The remedy for Darkness is to apply the tiniest bit of
Light – it obliterates Darkness. The remedy for Cold is
Heat.

The remedy for Lack is to embrace Abundance and
Prosperity.

The remedy for Weakness is to acquire POWER. Physical
Power is obtained by exercising the muscles against
resistance. Mental Power grows from exercising the MIND
– simply THINKING.

Here is the boggle…

We build ourselves over entirely every eleven months,
so we can say we are really only eleven months old at
any time. If we build the same defects back into
ourselves year after year, then we have no one to blame
but ourselves for our condition.

We are the sum total of our own thoughts.
Unfortunately, in school we were not taught HOW to
think – only WHAT to think.

We learned reading, writing, arithmetic and the basics
of history and science through REPETITION. We learned
the applied knowledge skills such as cooking, sewing,
typing, woodworking, auto repair, etc. through REPEATED
practice.

With sufficient practice, we reach the highest level of
competence: Unconscious Competence. The SUBCONSCIOUS
part of us performs the skills without our Conscious
effort, just as we breathe and beat our hearts.

We learned our theological BELIEFS through REPEATED
SUGGESTION in church, schul or mosque. ALL Beliefs are
programmed in our SUBCONSCIOUS via Repeated suggestion.

We will believe LIES when we hear AND REPEAT them often
enough. For example, even today many folks Believe
destruction is the proper route to Harmony, World Peace
and Enlightenment.

ALL our gut reactions and decisions are determined by
our Emotional FEELINGS. Our Feelings are generated by
our Belief Patterns.

To change the way we react or decide, we must change
the way we Feel. Thus, we must change our Beliefs. We
create NEW Beliefs the same way we received our
existing ones.

PREDOMINANT ATTITUDE

Attitude is simply the direction in which something
leans. Our Mental Attitude determines how we filter and
react to new SUGGESTIONS.

Predominant means, “MOST of the time.” It’s okay to
sway when hit by as strong gust of wind, as long as You
lean the way You want to most of the time.

The MAIN role of SELF-TALK is to guide Your Predominant
Attitude. This is KEY before You can practice and
MASTER the Skills of Visualization, Imagination,
Organized Planning, Sex Transmutation, and the Sixth
Sense. It also KEY in inducing PERSISTENT BELIEF,
DESIRE and FAITH – and Vibrating WITH the MASTERMIND.

Self-Talk is NOT the same as Your daily goal statement
as outlined in Chapter 2 of TGR. Self-Talk is mainly an
ongoing Attitude course correction.

I know folks who set aside time each morning and/or
evening for Self-Talk during their daily meditation,
walk, gym workout or commute. I’m certain they have a
great Attitude during the days’ bookends, but what
about MOST of the day?

I have posted sheets everywhere that say in big, bold
print, “I AM WHOLE, PERFECT, STRONG, POWERFUL, LOVING,
HARMONIOUS AND HAPPY.” These remind me to adjust my
course throughout the day.

P.S. Your Subconscious will probably cry, “Bullshit!”
when You first begin to reprogram it. This is normal.
It will accept whatever You have CHOSEN the same way
You got all Your existing Beliefs – through PERSISTENT
REPEATED SUGGESTION.

Remember, You build POWER through repeated exercise
against resistance.

The Amazing Power of Suggestion

Inspired by Chapter 4 of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

The Amazing Power of Suggestion

I have used this Power many times in my life.

I was once very active in my local community
organizations, and often found myself circulating
through a crowd selling raffle tickets. Folks would
ask, “How much are they?”

I always answered, “A dollar each, or ten for ten
dollars!” (While holding strands of ten up to my eye
level.)

Guess what?

Most people bought 10! Part was my anticipation, the
other part –  my Mastery of the Art of Suggestion.

Suggestion works by triggering programs in Your
Subconscious Mind. This Unconscious part of your mind
is very powerful and does a lot of things for You
without Your Conscious effort. It does everything from
beating Your heart to navigating a familiar route home
for You – it even does the driving!

Little strings of brain cells called neural pathways
are what Your Subconscious is made of. Most of Yours
were built during Your fist 7 years.

But You build new ones all the time by repeating tasks
over and over – and SAYING things over and over.

This is how You achieve the highest level of Knowledge
– Unconscious Competence. You use it to recover from
brain damage, master new skills, form new habits, and
foster new BELIEFS!

You see, the major thing standing in the way of Your
Achievement is the LIMITING BELIEFS You have. They are
like hard-wired programs in Your Unconscious Brain.

It’s as if You brought home a computer pre-loaded with
software by the manufacturer. After awhile, You realize
the software is not performing tasks the way You would
like it to – or maybe there are new tasks it just does
not know how to do.

What do You do? Wipe the hard drive and install a new
Operating System and software?

(Very dangerous.)

No! You download a software patch to MODIFY the
BEHAVIOR of Your software.

So, in the Mental Cleanse, You do NOT want to wipe Your
brain completely empty. All Your memories, knowledge
and experiences are pricelessly valuable!

Instead, You patch in some new instruction code via
SELF-TALK (a.k.a AUTO-SUGGESTION). You trigger what’s
already there to achieve Your Desired Outcome.

Personal, Present, Positive (The 3 P’s)

Personal – This ain’t about somebody else, it’s about
YOU!

Present – This ain’t about possibilities, the past or
the future, it’s about RIGHT NOW!

Positive – This ain’t gonna work unless You trigger
some POWERFUL FEELINGS This is where You Activate
what’s already there  – Real or IMAGINED.

Search back through Your memory to find the Moment when
You felt Your GREATEST EMOTIONAL HIGH, or IMAGINE such
a moment. Experience it again – the sights, sounds,
sensations, smell and taste. Now, FEEL the FEELING You
felt. Describe it in words. Add those to the words, “I
AM…”

“I AM (Greatest Feeling Words)…”

Follow it with an Achievement You BELIEVE You are in
the process of receiving. End it with What You Will
Give in exchange (in general terms – leave the
specifics up to the Universe).

By the way, like Your Unconscious Mind, the Universe is
a Powerful Machine. Like Google, it knows where is
everything and everyone who plays a role in Your
Achievement.

But, also like Your Unconscious Mind, it is as dumb as
a box of rocks. It will ALWAYS deliver what You EXPECT
– without question or judgment.

Ah-Ha Moment: You HAVE been saying Self-Talk every day
of Your life, whether You were aware or not.

AND/OR You have been a slave to the Suggestions of
others by not turning off or staying away from the
stuff listed in the second post in the Welcome Section
of this Forum.

Your friend and Servant,

Ken Klemm – Florida, USA

P.S. We all, in our personal way, have as our Primary
Goal – THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS!

The FEELING of Fear

Inspired by Chapter 15 of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

FEAR is a FEELING – not a thought, not an emotion. The
Feelings of Fear (i.e. The Six Ghosts) appear
automatically. I do not have to choose to Fear
something – it just happens.

Why?

If the Fears are automatic, then they must be critters
of my SUBCONSCIOUS MIND.

MY Subconscious Mind… on its amazing hard drive are
stored everything I’ve seen and everything ever said to
me, along with my reactions and Feelings about them.
All my experiences are the foundation of My Beliefs.

BELIEFS are FEELINGS too. They rise up un-summoned in
auto-reaction to words I hear or thoughts I have. These
are not Conscious Opinions, but gut reactions – Belief
Feelings.

Test me and test Yourself anytime on these: Abortion,
Death Penalty, Assisted Suicide, States’ Rights,
Washington D.C., Congress, White House. I do not need
to think about them – I immediately FEEL the Belief in
my HEART.

Want more proof? What do You FEEL in Your body when I
say, “You are cute!” or “You are gorgeous!”? Flushed
face? Warm ears? Goose bumps?

What do You FEEL in Your body when a police cruiser
pulls You over? A shiver? Cold sweat? Nervous, shaking
hands?

Your Subconscious Mind controls You at least 90% of the
time. This is a GOOD thing! Imagine an Uber Green
standing in the middle of a road when a big truck
suddenly bears down on him at high speed…

His Conscious Thought Process might go something like
this: “My, that is one big truck! But, actually, what
KIND of truck is it and WHAT is it hauling? Based on
its estimated weight and velocity, what damage to my
body could possibly result from the force of impact?
Hmmm… I certainly should consider the feasability of
removing myself from its path.”

Fortunately, Green’s Subconscious took control and he
leapt out of the way in time. None of the above
thoughts had a chance to occur.

So, if my Fears are reactions to my Belief Feelings
produced by my experiences, then how can I OUTWIT them?

CHANGE BELIEFS! Flip my Ball of Emotion’s Polarity from
Negative to POSITIVE!

HOW…?

SELF-TALK! AUTO-SUGGESTION!

Powerful as it is, my Subconscious Mind BELIEVES
whatever it hears MOST OF THE TIME. My HEART vibrates
the Frequency of whatever FEELINGS I Feel MOST of the
TIME.  My THOUGHTS create the Feelings when mixed with
my EMOTION at whatever POLARITY it is MOST of the TIME.

I FLIP the Polarity to Positive by going to GRATITUDE.
I once kept a Gratitude Journal – listing things I was
grateful for every day.

Let’s see…

Pulse? Check!

Temperature warmer than room? Check!

Passed the mirror test? Check!

I’m thinking these are things to be grateful for, and
it just gets better from there!

Your Friend and Servant,

Ken Klemm – Florida, USA

P.S. Most people who know me today would have a hard
time believing, until quite recently, I had an extreme
lack of self-confidence. You see, my Self-Talk begins,
“I am happy, confident and grateful…”
