Mind Over Matter - The Facts And Fiction

By Jackie Traveller

It's difficult for some people to believe that they can change their circumstances to whatever they want. If you're like most people, you would believe that your current lot in life is the one you are stuck with. What exactly is meant by 'mind over matter'?

The truth is everything you have and all the things you would rather have are all mind over matter. Everyone on the planet has the capacity to master the principle of mind over matter, but you need to understand how to use your mind power to do it.

One of the ways you can develop using mind over matter is to practice turning all of your negative thoughts and beliefs into something positive. Take time to sit and think about what it means to control your life with your mind. Consider how everything in your life appears when you are happy. Think about a very content and peaceful time in your life. The bad things in life don't seem as bad when a person is satisfied with the way things are going.

Now think about your current situation. How many times a day do you worry about not having enough money? Do you constantly put yourself down about not being able to lose weight? Are you in a job you hate? Every time your mind tells yourself these negative things, you're telling your sub-conscious that you want it to focus on these things.

Your subconscious mind has already been programmed to make you feel dread toward your job. Because of that negative belief, your life is highly impacted in all areas because your job is a huge part of your life.

A good example would be to use mind over matter techniques by repeating to yourself several times a day something that you may not believe, such as "I love my job, my co-workers, and my boss".

This is because your subconscious mind has already been programmed to make sure you hate your job and that you won't be able to afford nice things or to make sure you continue to struggle to lose weight. These negative beliefs can highly impact all areas of your life.

You can easily see that everything is mind over matter once you take a step back and examine your previous experiences. Take for example someone who has been through a violent and abusive relationship. If they have been called names such as fat and stupid, eventually, if they remain in that relationship, their self-esteem will come soaring down.

The reason why is because although they may not realize it, they have come to believe those terrible things about themselves, not consciously, but subconsciously. All of these negative beliefs eventually lead to a life full of pain, sorrow, and disbelief.

If you want a more successful job then spend time to repeat affirmations to yourself daily. Tell yourself you deserve a higher paying, happier job. If you want a happier relationship, tell yourself often that you deserve a happier relationship. No matter what you want your life to look like, you can change the outcomes by programming your sub-conscious mind to look for the results you want.

Now think about the opposite approach. If you tell yourself regularly that you are beautiful and worthy of a great job with plenty of money, you will at first think 'that's not true'. But deep down your unconscious mind will be listening and the reprogramming will be happening slowly. Before you know it, you'll believe in yourself and your actions will lead to more positive outcomes.

It really is possible to live a life of joy and abundance once you have mastered the principles of mind over matter.
