Super Brain Gives You Anything You Want

Last week I ended my blog with a tease, saying I would give you some secrets and methods of how to train your brain to give you anything you want. The authors of the book Super Brain say that you need a ‘matrix’ to work from to accomplish whatever goal or goals you set for yourself. They also make the very powerful point that the “secret isn’t exerting more willpower or beating yourself up for not being perfect. The secret is changing without force.” So to achieve goals and objectives in your life without force you need to create a matrix for making better choices.
Obviously if you are trying to lose weight you wouldn’t set up a matrix that lists thing such as:
1. Eat more meals at fast food places.
2. Buy and stock more ice cream and donuts in the house.
3. Watch more T.V.
4. Drink more beer.
5. Hang out with more overweight people.
For your matrix to work with a weight loss objective you would much list items that were opposite of those listed above and you would be better served if the list contained 10 or 12, or even more, positive directions that you would follow.
For example, the book Super Brain gives a wonderful matrix for a positive lifestyle:
1. Have good friends.
2. Don’t isolate yourself.
3. Sustain a lifelong companionship with a spouse or partner.
4. Engage socially in worthwhile projects.
5. Be close with people who have a good lifestyle–habits are contagious.
6. Follow a purpose in life.
7. Leave time for play and relaxation.
8. Keep up satisfying sexual activity.
9. Address issues around anger.
10. Practice stress management.
One last word of wisdom from Super Brain–“Success comes when people act together and failure tends to happen alone.” This last quote from the book certainly has been the case with me and my life with everything from making tons of money to losing weight to being in tip top shape. I’ve been so blessed to be able to hook up and hang around all the right people who have made it so much easier to start and stick with a particular matrix.
Go ahead and start today by creating your own matrix for what you want most at this time in your life!
