Isn’t It Time To Change Who “You” Are?

Scientists are discovering that our brain is like an automated blackboard – the kind we had at school. Our blackboard is filled with information written when we were children, about how to live and who we are. Most of the information was written there by our parents and other role models, reflecting who they were and how they saw their prejudices, their expectations or lack of expectations about their future, their ability to be successful or not to be successful – all of it outdated (and for you, probably wrong).

So, your lack of success and happiness in life may not occur because of your life and your personal history, but is fundamentally based and directed on your parents’ and possibly their parents’ history of experiences with their fears, failures and frustrations. They just passed the pain on! And your little brain recorded it as if those experiences and feelings were yours!

But there is good news, too. The scientists say that the blackboard of your brain can be modified, maybe even wiped clean of all the false and misguided notions of who “you” are. You have the ability to re-define and re-direct the rest of your life; changing direction into a happier, less fearful and frustrating reality. You can learn to enjoy life in new ways, to embrace the wonder of every single day on your own personal terms. You no longer have to “should” yourself, no longer have to do what your old blackboard scribbles say you “aught to do”.

You have a well-spring of wisdom which flows deep inside of you that can inform, protect and encourage you on every step of your new path into your brighter future. With your blackboard of your past wiped clean, your intrinsic “intuitive intelligence” will allow you to write new, life-affirming information and directions on your mind’s blackboard which can transform the rest of your life.

And it works! I am finally learning how to wipe my minds’ blackboard clean. Others I know are doing it, too. It’s not difficult. It doesn’t cost anything. You don’t have to join a church or a cult. Just be yourself, probably for the first time in your life.

I’ll give you your first clue. The rest will follow on my next blog.

But for now, just do this:

1. Sit down and relax.

2. Quiet your mind. Push away the past. Push away the future.

3. Begin to listen to your own deep personal store of wisdom.

4. Breathe in.

5. Breathe out.

6. Count your breaths.

7. Wait for the miracle.
