Dave Wood says something like ninety-eight percent of what you do every day happens without you ever consciously deciding to do it: how you talk, how you walk, even how you butter your toast in the morning. In this episode he explains the servo mechanism quietly running your habits in the background, why your self-image acts as a filter on what you’re even capable of noticing, and the four-step process for actually reprogramming it. Here’s the episode.

The more successful people I meet, the more I believe success is just an automatic, unconscious way of doing things. A behavioral pattern running in the background when you’re not even thinking about it, outside of your conscious awareness. That mechanism is either producing what you want or the opposite, and it works exactly as it should either way, building the world you’re imagining inside your unconscious mind. Eighty percent of the actions you take in a day, or more, I actually think it’s more like ninety-eight percent, are unconscious and automatic. You couldn’t be aware of all of them even if you tried. There’s simply too much data, too much information, too many thoughts, too many little things to pay attention to for your conscious mind to carefully process all of it with logical thought.

Your unconscious mind is either working its way toward success or working its way toward failure. Which one depends on how you’ve programmed it. And on the information you’re taking in every day through your five senses, through the books you read, the audio you listen to, and the people you’re connected with socially as you chase riches on the internet. This goes down to every detail of your life, whether you’re conscious of it or not: how you talk, how you walk, even how you spread butter on your toast in the morning while your mind wanders on pre-programmed patterns just outside your conscious awareness.

I believe success is a human instinctual pattern, pre-directed responses to outside stimulus that get filtered through your conscious mind, but the pattern itself happens on a deep, root level before you’re even aware it’s happening. That’s why you have to change things unconsciously, at the root, if you want to actually change your life. We can instinctively succeed at everything we do, making the right choices unconsciously by focusing on what we actually control, unless there are bugs in our programmed belief systems, our programmed values, our programmed way of thinking. Everyone has an internal guidance system, one that unconsciously and automatically moves them toward their goals, or doesn’t. Like a success instinct calculating every possible future and making the right one happen as you focus your mind and energy in the right direction.

Most people will laugh, or respond in jest, if you tell them success has anything to do with unconscious behavior and automatic responses. And even as they’re laughing nervously, they’re actually wondering whether they’re programming their own mind correctly, because everybody instinctively knows we have automatic programs running in the background. There’s been real research on the conscious mind versus the unconscious mind’s processing capacity. And it suggests the conscious mind can only process something like seven, plus or minus two, chunks of information at once, adding and deleting chunks as you go. Your unconscious mind processes something like two million chunks simultaneously, with intricate, interwoven detail. And you’d never even know it was happening unless you’ve experienced something like the kind of creative manifestation they talk about in the movie The Secret.

Your unconscious mind decides what’s important and what you pay attention to. It decides what gets brought into your conscious attention based on your values and your belief systems, filtering those two million chunks down to the five to seven you actually become aware of, based on what you’re imagining. In other words, you are a creation machine, whether you’re creating on purpose in this moment or not. What gets brought to your conscious awareness is controlled by your programming. If you’re constantly thinking about the limitations and frustrations in your life, you’ll keep encountering exactly what you’re imagining, in greater capacity and frequency, until you decide to change it. We need to feed our internal representations with beautiful things, with ideas, with new images of a better future, and then we create what we want.

The Servo Mechanism Steering You on Autopilot

We also have a self-image, an identity, and it sets boundaries automatically that shape what actually manifests in our life, whether we’re aware of them or not. Your self-image acts like a filter for the constant stream of information and chaos flowing at you from your environment. It controls what information reaches your conscious awareness and how you experience it. The map of reality you’re holding onto isn’t the same as reality itself. If your self-image is built from beliefs that don’t match the success and happiness you say you want. Your internal guidance system won’t let you step into that future, no matter what conscious goals you set on top of it.

The brain and nervous system function automatically on what’s sometimes called a servo mechanism, a term from books on self-help training that actually create transformation. A servo, shortened from servomechanism, is an automatic device that uses error-sensing, negative-feedback systems to correct the performance of a mechanism. Your brain works the same way: it constantly moves you toward your defined target, correcting course after every piece of feedback it gets from the world, all in the background while you’re going about your day, thinking, doing focused work, maybe even enjoying yourself.

A real-life example everybody in the United States has access to is driving your car on the highway. Have you been driving for more than a couple of months? Then you’ve already run a completely unconscious, automated sequence of triggered responses, without ever thinking about it, and you still get to where you want to go. You’re not consciously choosing to steer or accelerate or brake, it’s all happening automatically as your nervous system responds to what you’re seeing and hearing. Maybe you’ve been driving and suddenly looked up and you were five miles past your exit and never noticed, or you arrived right on time and don’t remember how you got there because your mind was somewhere else entirely. That’s the same automatic success-creation system that can make you rich. It can make you happy. It can make you free.

This internal servo system can function as a success mechanism or a failure mechanism, depending on what you feed it and what you want to create. If you want better results, you need to make it work for you on autopilot, which means filling it with the right input, the right images, the right vision. For most people, there’s an issue stopping that from happening automatically, a filtration system that determines what kind of input you can actually receive and use. That filtration system is your self-image, your identity, and the easiest way to understand it is to compare your brain and nervous system to a computer. No matter what you put into a computer, it fails to function correctly if there are errors in the software. It’s the same with your unconscious servo mechanism.

Where Your Self-Image Comes From, and Why It’s Often Wrong

Your self-image starts forming from your genetics, your environment, your parents, your school, your mentors, and the way you began processing information, making decisions, and imagining your future as a kid. As soon as you’re aware of other people’s opinions, you start accepting them as fact, even when they’re not true. And even though many of those beliefs are no more or less real than their exact opposite. So why not believe what actually produces what you want in your life instead? This matters, because most people accept an opinion as fact and act in accordance with it their entire life. Someone who’s told they’re not the sharpest tool in the box, or not too bright, will often just unconsciously agree, even when it’s obviously not true, and act in accordance with that belief anyway.

There’s a study I want to tell you about. A teacher told one group of kids they were in a special class because they had a learning disability, and even though none of them actually had one, they all started performing worse. Another group of kids, who genuinely did have a learning disability, were told they were in a special group because their intelligence was extra high, and that group started performing better than the normal group. What we hear actually matters. It forms beliefs, and it changes reality. If somebody has spent their whole life avoiding anything that requires what they consider a high level of intelligence because of something they were told, they can still do it. That belief has no reflection in reality at all. You can do amazing things. You are intelligent. You’re capable.

Four Steps to Reprogram the Servo Mechanism

There are two principles to understand before you can reprogram your unconscious mind. Principle one: the subconscious mind always operates automatically, whether or not the conscious mind tells it to, yet the conscious mind still has the power to direct it. Principle two: the unconscious mind always moves in the direction your internal values and beliefs point it, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, whether you’re awake, asleep, or paying attention. Your unconscious mind can’t take a joke. It can’t tell the difference between a fact and something that isn’t a fact. It agrees with whatever data it receives and steers all of your resources in that direction, automatically.

Here’s the process. Step one: release the old, negative system. Every time a negative thought comes up, simply say, out loud, cancel, delete, not true. Saying it out loud instead of just thinking it completes what’s called a language loop, your own ears hearing your own voice, which activates a deep structure in the brain that guides your unconscious intentions. Step two: replace it immediately with a new, positive system that directs you where you actually want to go, generally the opposite of the negative one. If you’re in sales, for example, and your old belief says, I’m not good with people, replace it with something like, I’m great at selling, I work well with people, they love to buy from me, even when I’m not consciously thinking about it.

Step three: affirm the new self-image daily, and keep challenging every belief that conflicts with the direction you’ve chosen. Step four: enter the theater of your imagination. Your subconscious mind can’t tell the difference between something real and something vividly imagined in full sensory detail, so every day, sit down, relax, and visualize the new version of yourself for five or ten minutes. The best athletes, actors, and successful people I know all do some version of this daily. Ten minutes of focused imagination a day, done consistently, can change the direction of your life over time.

As part of this, get rid of the negative input working against you: media bombardment, gossip, negative relatives, the nightly news. Turn it off, upgrade your social circle, and start feeding your mind with something better instead. Your unconscious actions, which make up about ninety-eight percent, or at least eighty percent, of your daily decisions, will start to serve your goals instead of working against them. Even when your subconscious does something you don’t want it to do, it’s still doing its job well, and that means you have the power to redirect it. Once you upgrade the programming and get clear on the destination, it moves you toward your outcome every time, like clockwork, the same way it’s already moving you automatically right now.

Hey there, my friend. I wanted to welcome you to The Daily Shortcut. My name is Dave Wood, your host, and in the next couple of minutes, I'm going to reframe your idea of how your mind works and what moves you towards success or failure in your life. Maybe this is going to happen as you read the words on this page, or maybe it'll happen for you when you wake up tomorrow morning. But however it happens, this information is going to transform you today.

Perhaps you'll even have a vivid dream affirming everything you experienced in this episode of The Daily Shortcut this very night, tonight as you're asleep and are off in the land of the unknown and your dreams are creating new worlds in the future. Whatever happens now, you're going to discover the amazing power of your internal guidance system and how it controls the outcomes of your life in today's episode. If you're one of those people who have struggled for a long time without really understanding why, this video is for you. See, the more successful people I meet, the more and the more I believe that success is just an automatic, unconscious way of doing things and taking action differently, like a behavioral pattern happening in the background when you're not even thinking about it, outside of your conscious awareness. A way of functioning as it seems to happen when you're not even aware of it in the background, whether that mechanism is actually producing what you want to produce, or the opposite, as it works exactly as it should in either case, creating the worlds that you're imagining inside of your unconscious mind.

Here's where this is going to get interesting. See, 80% of the actions that you take in your daily life, or more, I actually think it's more like 98%, they're unconscious, they're automatic. And you can't even be aware of all of them, even if you wanted to be aware of them and were trying to pay attention. In other words, you do most of the things that you do without even thinking about them and you couldn't be aware of them if you tried to be aware of them. There's simply too much data, there's too much information you're processing, too many thoughts you're thinking, and too many little things to pay attention to, and it's all happening if you're trying to carefully process your environment with logical thought, you wouldn't even be able to do it.

Now, your unconscious mind is either going to work its way towards success or it's going to work its way towards failure. The outcome is going to vary depending on how you've programmed your unconscious mind and the information that you're actually taking in through your five senses every day, through the books that you're reading, audios that you're listening to, and also the people that you're connected with socially as you're embarking on your quest to get riches on the internet. Now this goes down to every little detail in your life that you're conscious of or not. How you talk, how you walk, and even how you spread your bras, butter five degrees, in the morning as your mind is wandering with pre-programmed patterns just outside of your conscious awareness systems. I want to start today's episode by talking about instincts and instinctual responses.

I believe that success is a human instinctual pattern of behavior of pre-directed responses to external stimuluses that are directed by your conscious mind. However, the patterns are actually happening on a deep root level before you're even aware that they're happening at all, which is why you have to change unconsciously at the root if you want to truly change your life and live a better and also a more powerful future. We can instinctively succeed in everything that we do, making the right choices unconsciously by focusing on the right things that we have in control, unless we have little bugs in our programmed belief systems, our programmed values, and also our programmed systems. of thinking that we need to change now. Everyone that I've ever met and everyone in the world has an internal guidance system, an internal system that unconsciously and automatically moves us towards our goals or not.

Like if you could imagine a success instinct or a program that calculates all the possible simultaneous futures and makes just the right ones happen for you as you're focusing your mind and energy in the right direction now. To create what you actually want to create in your life. See, most people they'll laugh or they'll respond in jest if you tell them that success has anything to do with unconscious behavior and automatic responses. And as they're responding with unconscious ridicule and laughing nervously, they're actually wondering if they're actually programming their mind correctly by listening to the right messages or not. Because everybody instinctively knows we do have automatic programs that are playing in the background.

It does happen. There's actually been extensive researches on the conscious mind versus the unconscious processing capacity that human beings have and this research suggests with alarming amounts of data that the conscious mind can actually only process something like seven plus or minus two chunks of coded sensory information and thinking simultaneously as you're thinking you're actually adding chunks and you're deleting chunks to that bit even if you're thinking of lots of things at once as you're replacing the information. And moving through new systems of information as you're thinking in your daily life. Well, your unconscious processes actually move through about two million chunks simultaneously with intricate interwoven detail and you would never even know this is going on unless you've experienced things in your life like walking along in creative manifestation abundant manifesting things like you know they talk about in the movie the secret, this is the manifestation power that you're given as a human being. to actually change your environment by changing your belief systems inside see your unconscious mind actually decide what's important and what you're paying attention to it decides what we should bring into our conscious attention based on our values based on our belief systems and it actually has to filter and sort the two million chunks of information or so and it decides automatically which five to seven plus or minus two chunks of information it's going to bring to your conscious awareness based on what you're imagining with your internal quantum computational system that's built into your human nervous system in other words my friend you are a creation machine and you're built from the wealth and the abundance of the universe whether you want to be creating in this moment or not and if you focus your mind with me in the right way it always creates your imagined and your desired outcomes in the way that you want if you decide to take diminishing of your mind and focus it by absorbing each new episode of daily shortcut now so what's brought to your conscious minds awareness is actually controlled by your programming our built-in guidance system simply moves us towards the five sensory holographic imaginations inside that's comprised of all sorts of thinking that we're giving and creating in a given moment with or without conscious awareness involved that's why if we're constantly thinking about the limitations of the frustrations in our life we continue to encounter exactly what we're imagining every time in increased capacity and frequency until we decide to change that thing the very nature of our internal representations inside of our hearts and minds we need to feed those with beautiful things with ideas with artwork with new representations that create holographic images of a new better and a more powerful future and then you'll create what you want now we also have a self image or a more in identity as human beings and this sets boundaries automatically and creates reality constructs that continue to manifest in the right time and way for us on autopilot whether aware of them or not your identity yourself images like a filter for the constant abundance stream of information and also chaos flowing towards you from the center of time the universe from your experience in your life from your external environment this controls what information is actually brought to your conscious awareness how you experience that information in other words the map of reality which is the images and constructs you're holding on to is not the same as the nature of reality yourself you're bending your perception of time space matter and energy to match your internal representations inside and you're experiencing now a distortion and how the universe actually is no matter how true or untrue your representation happens to be your experience in a filtered construct based on your own belief systems so if you have a self image that's made of emotional and holographic constructs that don't have the success that you want and happiness you desire the power that you want to have perhaps you're not gonna allow yourself to step into the future of wild abundant facts fame spirituality and money like you truly desire and you have the capacity to create as a human being you might even set conscious goals or you want to find a partner but your internal automatic guidance system is never going to allow you to reach such goals while your identity itself is not in alignment with the truly beautiful creation that you've been constructed by God to be see the brain and nervous system are functioning automatically on what sometimes called a servo mechanism and well thought-out self-help trainings that actually create transformation in a powerful way so what is that what's a servo mechanism well sometimes shortened to servo and books that I've read it's an automatic device that uses error sensing negative feedback systems to correct the performance of a mechanism and it's defined by its function automatically changing your perception of time space matter and energy through automatic pre-built presets that function inside your unconscious mind essentially the brain acts like a reality constructing servo mechanism constantly moving you towards your unconscious mind essentially the brain acts like a reality constructing servo mechanism constantly moving you towards your defined target continuously correcting course after receiving feedback from the universe and this entire holographic reality bending process happens unconsciously in the background as you're going about your day wondering about things thinking doing focused work or even maybe enjoying yourself immensely as you're getting commissions online and your bank balance is growing on autopilot by applying these daily shortcuts in your life right now a real life example of this reality distortion field principle which is a creative principle from for the everybody has access to a real example this for adults in the United States is driving your car on the highway as the daughter of the solid lines go by in your mind wonders itself to the exact right destination somehow have you been driving for longer than maybe a couple of months driving to completely unconscious automated sequence of behaviors from triggered external responses you're not even thinking about it you actually get where you want to go automatically while you're thinking about other things maybe enjoying music maybe you're singing I hope you sing good but maybe you sing bad as you're driving or maybe you're even talking to a friend your success on the highway is actually happening on autopilot without even making conscious choices about the actions that you're automatically taking based on previous reality constructs and decisions that you've made through habitual pattern responses you don't even have to think about steering you don't have to think about accelerating or braking it all happens automatically as your nervous system is stimulated from external sensory data like what you're seeing and hearing as it's filtered through your servo mechanism inside your unconscious mind like for example if you've ever been driving and all of a sudden you look up and you're five miles past your target destination and you weren't even aware of it or maybe you arrive at your destination on time and you don't even remember how you got there because your mind was wandering off in new dreams and destinations and daydreaming which you're like how did I get here how am I safe and suddenly you find that you're there what if success worked like that see if you've ever experienced that I want you to now realize you've actually experienced the same automatic success creation system that can make you rich it can make you happy could also make you free you unconsciously are staying on the road in your car you're automatically correcting your course away from the curb away from traffic as you drive so your mind can be a million miles away but you keep driving without even being aware that you're doing it's all just happening for you the right way as you breathe relax and experience the beautiful mountains or perhaps you're on a road trip to the city of your dreams and where is that exactly would you like to get there this internal automatic servo system is a great way to create your own life you can either function as a success mechanism or as a failure mechanism in your life depending on its input and what you desire to create if you want better results in your life you need to make your success creation system work for you on autopilot and that way you can start doing things now and filling its holographic five sensory vision creation system with information like what's in the daily shortcut including the free audio and PDF workbook that you're downloading now and as you're experiencing this transformational information however with most people there can actually be an issue stopping them that makes it so you're not automatically creating the prosperous life that you truly desire even though you have this mechanism because there's actually a filtration system that determines what kind of input from your environment you can receive and utilize as you're taking action unconsciously in your daily life filling out your habitual unconscious patterns and what's this filtration system how does it work well it's sometimes summarized as the self image your identity and it's easy to understand when you compare your brain and your nervous system to a computer and just kind of spice it up a little bit with consciousness just imagine a computer with consciousness and quantum mechanical computing ability that has a simultaneous possibility engine if you know what that means now no matter what you put into a computer it's going to fail to function correctly if has errors in software it's the same with your unconscious servo mechanism and how it puts you in the right place the right timer whether you're paying attention or not this all happens automatically based on your programming your servo mechanism actually operates in accordance with your identity systems with your beliefs and values and it reflects off this sensory data that you're actually internalizing from your external environment if you decide to program it with images of transformation or information that you do or you don't want what happens is your internal guidance system will operate as a mechanism that will get you there constantly getting you what you do or you don't want to get depending on what you're imagining if you program it with images of success and prosperity with fame and great relationships it's going to operate as a success and prosperity creation mechanism as well and get you exactly what you want and it all starts with empowering your self-image this is an image of our core self and it's the core factor too that determines the data that our internal guidance servo mechanism gets and what it can accept and use to function to creating your dream outcomes in your life the self-image starts being formed from our genetics our external environment like our parents and our school and the mentors that we have in the way we begin to process information the way that we make decisions as a child and the way that we begin to paint a path for our future as we imagine things as youth and as we listen to the belief systems of others as soon as we're aware of these opinions we start to accept them as a fact even if they're not true we believe them even though many times the beliefs the things that we think as they're no more or less real than the exact opposite belief or value right so my question for you is this why not believe what produces what you want to produce automatically in your life this can cause some serious limitations if we don't have accurate beliefs and the way our internal guidance system will function and create things in our life most people they'll just accept these opinions as a fact even though they're not true and they'll act in accordance with them their entire life for example someone who's told that they're not the sharpest tool in the box if you've heard that or maybe they're not too bright maybe they'll just unconsciously agree even though it's not true and they'll act in accordance with that belief even though it's obviously not true and it's and it's not based on the belief system that we believe in and we believe in the belief system that we believe in on real data.

In other words, it's not a verified, true piece of information, that they're not too bright. There's actually a study done, and this is just a story that I'm gonna tell you right now, where they took a group of kids and their teacher came in and told the group of kids that they're in a special class because they have a learning disability and started training them. And because of that, all of the kids together, even though they had no learning disability, probably not the most ethical study, they all started to perform less. They took another group of kids with a learning disability and they just told them that they're in a special group of kids because their intelligence is extra high, and that group of kids started to perform better than the normal group of kids. And so, what we hear actually does matter and can form beliefs and change reality.

Perhaps even if your whole life somebody has avoided anything that involves what they consider a high level of intelligence because they've heard something like that, they believe that they couldn't possibly do such mentally demanding things. They can do it. That's just based on values and beliefs that have no reflection in reality at all. You can do amazing things. You are beautiful.

You are intelligent. You're powerful. You're capable. And I believe that God made you that way. And whether you believe that or not, you can do amazing things as a human being, and I've seen that reflected in experience again and again in working with all kinds of people.

See, if you're not where you want to be right now, and you're also not getting there as quickly as you want to get there, it's most likely because you have a few bugs in your system. You're not getting there as quickly as you want to get there. It's most likely because you have a few bugs in your self-image and your internal programming software systems. The good news is just like software, the change can happen actually very quickly, even instantly inside the human nervous system as you're watching this and as you're downloading the Daily Shortcuts. It may have already happened today as you are watching this and bending your mind around this new and powerful information because you do have the power to change.

See, there are two principles that you need to understand before you can reprogram your unconscious mind and upgrade it. The first is to upgrade its internal quantum mechanical servomechanism. The two principles of the subconscious mind that you can utilize now are... Number one, the subconscious mind always is going to operate automatically, whether the conscious mind tells it to be that exact way or not, yet the conscious mind does have the power to direct the unconscious mind through certain principles that can create conscious-unconscious alignment. Principle number two.

The unconscious mind always moves... in the direction in which the internal values and belief systems point it 24 hours a day seven days a week whether you're awake sleeping paying attention or not every time you consciously absorb a thought create something in your mind your unconscious mind is the mechanism which your resources are aimed at using the information that are actually formed in that thought and if they're not in alignment your resources are not going to be aimed in the right way whatever thoughts you absorb your unconscious mind is going to direct those thoughts whether that direction is chosen whether it's guided consciously or whether it's formed properly with the right information or whether it's just chaotic belief systems that other people put on you so whether it's the thoughts that you hear from other people or whether it's something you say to yourself all of this is going to form into a flow of consciousness that's creating your future in a certain way that you can change to a future of peace a future of prosperity you a future of abundance if that's what you choose to do your unconscious mind it can't take a joke it can't tell the difference between a fact or something that's not a fact it agrees with the data it receives and with the beliefs it's pointed towards and it guides all of your resources automatically in accordance with those beliefs and when you accept nonsense and you just believe it you say I guess I'm not really smart especially when it comes to your identity your abilities what you can do your internal guidance system functions as a not success mechanism and it actually steers you away from the beautiful possibilities you do have the power to achieve as a human being and I believe you have the power to step into those I want you to understand that if you release these negative thoughts beliefs images and emotions about yourself and what you believe is possible that not only can you achieve those things but this is relatively simple and it'll begin happening automatically just by experiencing and watching every episode of the daily shortcut filling your unconscious mind with new beautiful and also powerful things well this process is gonna be simple for you it takes consistent and conscious effort and focused attention and a decision to walk in a better and more abundant way your change though can happen in an instant the moment you make a decision you can actually change everything in your mind because the formula for change is actually easy just release the old negative system and replace that old system with a new one and change it to a completely different one and that's what we're going to do next with a new positive success creation system that's built to your specifications to your desires to the life that you actually want to create see the interesting thing about the conscious mind is that once it makes a decision and it chooses something with certainty it eliminates all other options and it begins the automatic creation process that very moment along with the decision once you decide something like i'm not attractive i'm not powerful i'm not rich so you're going to rule out the possibility of creating an attractive powerful rich abundant future like you desire to create it's just a decision inside but once you decide i'm not rich and you rule out the possibility of making lots of money and being rich in this moment you can also flip that around you can decide i am rich and once you decide i'm not intelligent and wise you rule out the possibility of maybe getting the promotion that you want or perhaps doing anything that you perceive requires a high level of intelligence and wisdom however the opposite is also true so here is how you can cancel negative systems and you can upgrade your internal servo mechanism on a daily basis to upgrade your internal guidance system it takes repeated intentional selection and focused attention every time you have a choice that comes up from the inside you want to direct your conscious resources and your internal holographic imagery systems in a certain and a pre-decided way to get you to a certain destination so when you hear yourself thinking about what you don't want in thoughts you're playing simply recognize it consciously release it using exercise that we've taught you here in the daily shortcut and walk you through in a second and choose the direction that you want to go instead guiding your mind to a new and more abundant future and if you do this is the exciting part you can create a new program for your servo mechanism and for the rest of your life you can create a new program for your servo mechanism so here's the process step number one important you got to release the old and negative systems every time a negative thought comes up you can simply say cancel delete not true out loud cancel i like is better you can also walk through simple emotional release processes we teach you my brother teaches in these episodes and also in our courses as you continue paying attention as you continue listening and going through the workbooks that come along with each of these episodes this is going to make you consciously aware of the thought pattern and the belief systems in the background and it's going to consciously challenge them for their lack of accuracy and truth and just doing that can change things the easiest way to quickly change a belief is to constantly challenge its validity based on you can think cancel and then you could ask what's actually true but it's actually far more effective when you state something out loud instead of just saying it in your mind and consciously direct your mind in a new way with your words your ears will hear your voice and it completes what's called a language loop and it activates something called a deep structure of language that is built into the human brain and guides our unconscious intentions step number two replace it with a new positive path powerful abundance creating system immediately after calling out your negative system and challenging it replace it with a new system that directs you exactly where you want to go this is generally the opposite of the negative system and more close to your true self and doing it this way creates a new program you can activate for your unconscious servo mechanism actually guides you towards the success of your dreams so for example if you're in sales or marketing and your negative system says something like I'm not awesome with people you can replace it with something like this I'm great at selling and I work well with people they love to buy from me even automatically when I'm in sales videos without even consciously thinking about it like I have a maverick Commission getting power with my clients well I'm walking them to the destination they desire and serving their needs in the best way and I'm receiving money at the same time isn't that a better belief see immediately after canceling the old negative system you want direct your mind to creating the system that you have the desire inside your unconscious mind inside your heart to create step number three you want to affirm the new self-image daily and continue to build it into something more powerful you want to realize why you want to change what's your end goal affirm the new image of yourself multiple times daily and challenge every belief and value and every stimulus that you encounter that conflicts with your new chosen direction that you construct to your dream specifications this brings us to step number four which is to enter the theater of your imagination I find it interesting when people maybe laugh at visualization or unconscious creation strategies like what's taught in the secret because the reality is that the subconscious mind can't tell the difference between something that's real and something that's actually visually vivid vividly imagined in holographic five sensory experiential detail and every day if you just sit down you relax and you visualize the new image of yourself for five or ten minutes you can force your imagination to focus on what you want in a predetermined way and be consistent and the best athletes in the world actors and all the successful people I know all do this on a daily basis in other words all the successful people in the world use these strategies whether you do or not ten minutes of active focused imagination daily and continuous absorption in every daily shortcut episode can change the nature of your destiny over time and create a new future for yourself and your family that you want to create and step into so I want you to visualize today every day as vividly as possible using your emotions using your senses hear the things that's happening right picture yourself how you want to be as if it's happening this moment and your beautifully experiencing doing things that you want to be doing and having the things that you actually want to have in your life while you're doing that feel the feeling you'll have when you experience these things in the flesh and actually step into it if you do that every day it'll happen and the reality is that all it takes to bring about serious change in your life is simple daily actions like I've described as you're doing these things you can start acting as if the change has actually already occurred feeling the feelings that you'll feel when it's occurred and it will occur exactly how you imagined it I've experienced that again and again and so if the people around me that I've taught these strategies to and it's going to happen for you if you're consistent so it's part of the process it's important that you rid your mind of negative systems and input that creates in them that creates negativity in them such as media and bombardment gossip from other people reading gossip and newspapers and just negative crap stuff that doesn't lift your mind a new better visions of the future in other words just eliminate it cut it out of your diet of crappy negative input programs that you take in on a daily basis and replace them with something new there's lots of great news that happens and positive things that happen in the world and there's information that you could listen to that'll change your life every day so you want to stop listening to your negative relatives turn off the TV upgrade your social circle and start reading and listening to personal growth books of people that have what you want and go through every new

mechanism for you instead you're going to begin to talk differently you're gonna walk differently you'll even spread your butter differently in a special way that creates the perfect sandwich of success in your life if you could imagine that. your unconscious actions which are about 98% of your total daily decisions at least 80% as we mentioned before they'll actually start to serve you and it's going to move you towards success your activities and your goals. desired goal and the lifestyle of your dreams. The subconscious is great at what it does and this is the truth.

Even if it does the things that you don't want it to do, it's doing a great job and that means that you have power. Like if you're not moving your life towards a life of lots of money because of an idea about yourself or about money that needs to be released and replaced with something that's better. When these programs appear in the form of a negative thought, simply cancel the system and replace it using the process explained above.

Once you upgrade its software, you get clear on its destination, you cancel the buggy programming as you're replacing it with new upgraded software.
