You may have heard that the subconscious mind is powerful and that the key to getting the results you want is for your subconscious mind to be aligned with your goals. In fact, the subconscious mind is many times more powerful than the conscious mind, so fighting it won\u2019t really work.<\/p>\n

To give you an example, while the conscious mind can process 40 bits of information per second, your subconscious mind can process 40 million<\/i> bits of information per second. It\u2019s like trying to fight against a tsunami wave. Most likely you\u2019re going to get crushed. Instead of fighting it, the key is to understand it, so you don\u2019t let it get in your way.<\/p>\n

Because, if you are growing, your subconscious mind is going to do what it can to get in your way and stop you from doing what you intended to do.<\/p>\n

You may have heard people talk about growth being messy or that crazy things may happen when you up-level in your business and this is often true.<\/p>\n

Why does this happen? Because your subconscious mind is designed to keep you safe and the subconscious mind thinks that any change is dangerous and tries to stop it at all costs.<\/p>\n

How does this happen?<\/p>\n

The subconscious mind, as powerful and masterful as it is, manifests circumstances and events that are designed for you to stop. <\/strong><\/p>\n

These events may be exactly what will distract you and stop you from doing what you had intended to do. And because the subconscious mind knows you so well, it knows exactly what types of events will get you to stop or be distracted.<\/p>\n

Let me give you a few personal examples. Earlier this year I was going to meet with a branding coach and photographer in the Seychelles. It was a big up-leveling and I was literally traveling to the other side of the world for this. One week before leaving, after having paid for the ticket, lodging and paid my coach in full, all of a sudden it looked like I wasn\u2019t going to be able to leave, as nobody would be able to watch my kids while I was gone.<\/p>\n

This could have easily derailed me, messed with my mind and stopped me from going if i had let it. Maybe even said, it\u2019s not meant to be…My subconscious mind knew that the only thing that would actually stop me from going is if my kids wouldn\u2019t be okay. But because I know how the subconscious mind works, I figured this was just something trying to stop me, and as soon as I had that thought, as quickly as the problem arose, it went away. But before that, I can tell you it looked quite impossible for me to go.<\/p>\n

Your subconscious mind will manifest the perfect situation or event designed to stop you from moving forward with your goals.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

As I was getting ready to launch my new website, I got sick about 5 days prior to launch. I had lots of work planned but I was literally unable to get out of bed. \u00a0The night before the launch all of a sudden I was unable to access any of my website log-ins. I needed to get things done, but I couldn\u2019t log in to any of the sites I needed to get into. This has never happened before. \u00a0I was sick for about 10 days total – which hardly ever happens to me! – and when I finally got well, then new things started happening.<\/p>\n

My brand new Audi which is less than a year old and should be the most reliable car ever all of a sudden stopped driving. It literally turned off while driving on the road. Then, just a day later, as I was getting to the second level of my launch and next steps, my son fell at school and got hurt and needed to go to urgent care to get stitched up.<\/p>\n

As I was driving back home after taking my son to the doctor, I couldn\u2019t start my loaner car. Also a brand new audi. Seriously? Enough obstacles and distractions already!<\/p>\n\n\n
