Subconscious Mind: Our subconscious mind is a very powerful tool if we allow it to be. If not, it becomes a weapon and that is where the expression “we are our own worst enemy” comes to mind.
Our subconscious mind is where things go round and round and loop if we let them.
Thoughts can be negative or positive, however, it is important to learn how to take control of these powerful thoughts.
By not learning how to take control of these thoughts, it leaves us in a pattern or habit of letting these thoughts run wild – eventually running us instead of us running them.

- This also creates an atmosphere of being bold and trying new things, looking at your dreams and goals and making the necessary changes to focus on those things that would bring more happiness, joy and peace into your life.
- It also creates an atmosphere of forgiveness instead of regret if things don’t work out exactly how you would want, which keeps you trying different ways and directions in order to obtain them instead of quitting.
Questions to Ponder:

What thoughts seem to be on a merry go round in your head?
Did you take time to read the links and see if they could help you?
What changes will you make, if any?
