December 2010…  As I went through the chapters of this book I realized that a lot of my metaphors and processes have changed over the last ten (10) years (2000 original publication date). And I realized that this material is still cutting edge material and very, very useful when applied. These pages aremind not about whydoes your what thinking doesThe what it does,thing they about are about how your (thinking) it does. fantastic understanding how something happens is that you can change or shift one of the elements and something totally different happens. These pages are about getting your life to show up better for you in ways that are pleasing to you. To your Best,

Before you Read Your  New Book

Please Read This First! First thank you for getting this book. You have in your hands, if you will simply put it into practice, some of the most powerful and simple tools available to make you and your life happier, healthier, wealthier and wiser. I wrote this book because patients and clients told me that it would be extremely helpful. As a result, I took my trainings and classes and transcribed them into this written document. The book reads as a conversation. There are thoughts within thoughts. We sometimes start at one place and cover three or four different things before we finish back where we started. Some people wanted to edit the book because they knew they could make it clearer and grammatically correct. However, I worked with an editor to keep it in a conversational style. Since it has been published we have found a few misspellings and yet all the incomplete thoughts and double or triple meanings are meant to be there. The reason is this book is an unconscious friendly book. There are passages and paragraphs that can be taken different ways. Go ahead and take them in all the different ways that you can. One principle that will help you be very successful is to consciously or unconsciously find at least three different meanings to everything and make at least two of the meanings positive. Some may think this is just a story of a poor little orphan that made good. On one level it can be. That part can be motivational. On another level this is a model, not the only model, but a very, very useful model that anyone can put into practice and be and become successful now.  A good way to read this book and then actually use it is to quickly read it through as if you were reading a light novel or series of short stories. After the first reading, do the exercises in each chapter until you are comfortable with them. ii To really make this book work and not be just some good information (knowledge), take whatever problem you have at this time and read from ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

chapter five on applying each exercise to the problem. The key to this book is using the contents on a specific problem, any problem. The addendum at the back of the book is an extension of chapter five because the book was originally written for our clients that just wanted to lose weight or stop smoking. That is why there are instructions in the beginning of the book of things to do before your first hypnosis session. Read this book as if you had hired me to be your Mental Trainer. Just like a Personal Trainer would make you work hard, sweat and hurt doing things that you are not used to doing and things that are new. As your Mental Trainer I help you play hard and do new things you're not used to doing in a new way. Sincerely yours,

 Houston  P.S. Anytime you have a problem, challenge, or any resistance, notice the feeling and simply apply any of the strategies in this book and you will accelerate your success. P.P.S. You can't have a problem if you don't already know (unconsciously) what the answer is. Go ahead and accelerate your success now.

TRAIN YOUR THINKING The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success (Practical how to’s for creating wisdom) Dr. Houston Vetter, PhD

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Acknowledgements If the truth of the matter was told, and I guess now is as good a time as any, my acknowledgement and thanks goes out to pretty much everyone I’ve come in contact with throughout all these years of existence. Everything that you will find in this book probably isn’t original. My belief is that everything people give me credit for, I learned from someone else. I just package it in my own unique way kind of southern, left-handed, practical and straightforward. Ok, maybe not always straightforward - but in a way that allows you to begin the process of creating wisdom your own unique way. As Dave Osborn, one of the people who encouraged me to get this stuff written down said, “There is much value in the way you package this information. You know, packaging is everything.” I’m of the opinion that I may miss someone as I begin to go through this litany of names. If I do, and you find that you gave or taught me some of this information, I apologize in advance and ask your forgiveness. If you let me know, I will remember and give you credit in the next edition. So here goes - from the most recent back. Most of the NLP, DHE, HPE community, Richard Bandler and John Grinder - for fo r synthesizing so much and coming up with NLP and Richard’s DHE. John LaValle, Rex Steven Sikes - who I met and learned from at a training of Rex’s and then later some fabulous concepts. John LaTaroutte - some of his energy work, NLP and Huna stuff. Gary Craig the developer of EFT. Kenrick Cleveland - one of the best, if not the best, teachers of Persuasion. His MAX Persuasion is the best I’ve ever experienced. Skip Carson - kind of like my m y partner in crime in this adventure Michael Hall and Bob Boedenhimer - for Neuro-Semantics. My entire staff - Debbie, Chris, Michael, Derel, and all our clients and patients. My good, good friend Rachel Bath - who is naturally turning to wisdom more and more, and is such a good example of how to take these concepts and create wisdom.

Ray Shaw - for someone who doesn’t know much about this t his stuff, you are one of the best examples of naturally designing and displaying wisdom. Gene Rodenberry - for creating Star Trek. Brother and Sister Maynard - for caring enough to run the orphanage in the most useful way possible with love, care and wisdom.  All the believers that allowed me to serve as Pastor - until we found out that the  job description was not in the Bible. Rick Grothe - for proving that being blonde and an athlete can be the intelligent thing to do.  And to Robbie Smith - who used some of my early wisdom processes and presented me with a person to prove these concepts c oncepts and principles true.

Four years ago in an effort to expand my hypnosis and communication skills, I learned of NLP/HPE (Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Human Performance Engineering). I must admit that I was very skeptical at first. The claims that were made ranging from curing phobias in 5 minutes, to deliberately altering beliefs and values, were, frankly, not credible. Yet, as I read books, talked to people, and researched on the Internet, I began to realize something. The accomplishments were growing from single claims, to a chorus, to multitudes. Still I wasn’t quite convinced. more; most of us do needone more. My method of satisfying that needI needed was by attending training. In that weekend, my view about my own capabilities and that of others was transformed. A world of possibility opened up for me, that had heretofore existed, but one I had been incapable of even perceiving, much less achieving. People ask, “What is NLP/HPE?” Lots of times they just ask, “What is this stuff?”  As many times as I have answered this question, I have yet to feel that it is answered fully. There isn’t a single area of human endeavor that cannot be enhanced using this incredible technology. An athlete can use it to enhance physical ability, a sales person can use it to increase his selling skills, a housewife can use it to improve her relationships with her husband or children, therapists can use this body of knowledge, as they take on the attitude to help clients faster, moretothoroughly, than ever before. of us Portal can use it to create the life and we want live and then live it. This trulyAnd is aall Power that allows you to master living at cause, not at effect. But, that didn’t say what NLP/HPE is, did it? This amazing technology is a detailed accurate model of human experience and communication. Using that model, we can describe any human activity and make deep, concise, and accurate changes, that endure. Using NLP/HPE, we can model people who do things exquisitely and then teach our own neurology the skillful model, quickly and effortlessly. In this way, we can rapidly and easily acquire powerful skills. The changes we make aren’t haphazard guesses about how to do things well. They are based on what we know worked. This makes it such that the changes you make are not steps into the unknown; they are strides into proven success. There are many books written about “success”, but none of them delve into the wisdom that underlies the success. I suspect the authors knew it was there and necessary. They probably have no idea how to teach wisdom. So, they just leave that part out. vii In this book, you are going to learn how to design success, not study someone else’s success, but design your own success. You will learn how you create ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

success, and how you generate wisdom, and how to apply those things to achieve your goals. But more importantly, you will learn how to generate excellence within yourself, by finding out how deeply you can communicate with your unconscious.  An author who knows what he is talking about should write write any book about success, one who understands the subject matter both intellectually and experimentally. While it may not be necessary to go from “rags to riches,” it is important that the author have demonstrated personally, that the methods and techniques do work. And success, for most of us, includes much more than mere money. Relationships, self-satisfaction, and achievement of goals, are all part and parcel to making up success. In addition to the facts about Houston Vetter’s childhood contained in this book, there is another story about him you should know. When I first met Houston at a meeting in Atlanta, he was on the verge of a disaster. Houston’s business then involved buying and renovating housing and then reselling it. He and his partners were doing very well. They were in the process of a major purchase, a renovation project, to revitalize a large tract of housing in a major metropolitan area. Unexpectedly the city planners changed their minds and the project was history. Houston lost, at once, his considerable investment, his job, the fruits of his life’s work, and acquired a six-figure debt! He was literally forced to borrow from friends for the basics of food and shelter. Now, three years later, Houston owns and operates a very successful business, and is not just enjoying the benefits that success brings for himself, but he is bringing those around him along with him. It isn’t necessary for you to have fallen as far as Houston did, to use his strategies for success. It isn’t necessary for you to be Houston to successfully employ his methods. It is only necessary that you want to succeed. This book will not ask you to try to be anyone but yourself. You aren’t going to need anything but the God-given abilities you now have, some of which you don’t yet know about. This book will teach you how to build your success your way. You are reading my words, and perhaps you are beginning to realize that the future you want really is “in your hands”. Shakespeare compared life to an actor “who struts and frets his hour upon the stage…” The realization now is that for the first time in history, the ability to “write the play” is in your hands. Take this book seriously while you are having fun reading it. Skip Carson viii

Chapter 1

The Moral of the Story . . . One sunny day a rabbit came out of her hole in the ground to enjoy the fine weather. The day was so nice that she became careless and a fox sneaked up behind her and caught her. "I am going to eat you for f or lunch!” said the fox. "Wait!" replied the rabbit; "You should at least wait a few days." "Oh yeah? Why should I wait?" "Well, I am just finishing my thesis on 'The Superiority of Rabbits over Foxes and  Wolves’ ." ." "Are you crazy? I should eat you right now! Everybody knows that a fox will always win over a rabbit." "Not really, not according to my research. If you like, you can come into my hole and read it for yourself. If you are not convinced, you can go ahead and have me for lunch." "You really are crazy!" However, since the fox was curious and had nothing to lose, it went with the rabbit. The fox never came out. A few days later the rabbit was again taking a break from writing and sure enough, a wolf came out of the bushes and was ready to set upon her. "Wait!" yelled the rabbit; "you can't eat me right now." "And why might that be, my furry appetizer?" "I am almost finished writing my thesis on 'The Superiority of Rabbits over Foxes and Wolves' .."" The wolf laughed so hard it almost lost its grip on the rabbit. "Maybe I shouldn't eat you. You really are sick--in the head. You might have something contagious." 2 "Come and read it for yourself. You can eat me afterward if you disagree with my conclusions." ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

So the wolf went down into the rabbit's hole and never came out. The rabbit finished her thesis and was out celebrating in the local lettuce patch. Another rabbit came along and asked, "What's "W hat's up? You seem very happy." "Yup, I just finished my thesis." "Congratulations. What's it about?" "The Superiority of Rabbits over Foxes and Wolves’ ." ." "Are you sure? That doesn't sound right." "Oh yes. Come and read it for f or yourself." So together, they went down into the rabbit's hole. As they entered, the friend saw the typical graduate abode -- albeit a rather messy one after writing a thesis. The computer with the controversial work was in one corner. In addition, to the right there was a pile of fox bones, on the left a pile of wolf bones. Moreover, in the middle was a large, well-fed lion.

The moral of the story:

The title of your thesis doesn't matter. The subject doesn't matter. The research doesn't matter. 3

All that matters is who your advisor is. Hello, my name Houston. I wasn’t always called Houston is one of four names I wasisgiven at birth. In fact, although I have threethough. namesItplus a last ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

name of “Vetter” on my birth certificate somehow I guess that still wasn’t enough of a choice or flexibility. For the first 17 to 18 years of my life I went by the nickname “Buddy," that does not appear on my birth certificate. I have the impression that the nickname came from my Grandmother, she being of Scotch, Irish, Dutch and Anglo heritage and my father being a full-blooded German named Adolf. I inherited that name as one of the three names besides Houston on my birth certificate without the name Buddy anywhere on that sheet of paper.  Anyway, I don’t know about you but in this world I started out as a child and I was born naked. They say I was born in a place called Petoskey, Michigan. I lived there three weeks. I remember it well. So well in fact that as I was typing this into the word processor I had to go look in my file and find my birth certificate so I could spell Petoskey right. By the way, does your birth certificate have an expiration date on it? From there, we moved (my mother, half-brother and I) to Shelbyville, Tennessee. Shelbyville has two distinctions. At that time it was the walking horse capitol of the world and where they make the #2 pencils that are needed for all those tests and forms. We moved in with my Grandparents on my mother’s side or else we would have been in a different country, my father f ather being German and all. The story I heard, because I don’t remember, was that my father, my dad whatever titles one wants to use, anyway my male parental unit was sitting at a card table and I crawled over and grabbed his pant leg. He picked me up and threw me across the room. I hit the wall and slid down. He got up, walked out of the house and never returned.  Anyway, we lived at my Grandparents until one day when I was was about 3. I was at the babysitter’s playing in the sandbox. This reminds me of what Steven Wright the comedian once said as a child when we played in a quicksand box. I was an only child eventually. My mother came to pick me up and told me we’re going for a ride. Like any excited 3 year old, I wanted to go. In addition, like any 3 year old I kept asking, “Are we there yet?” 4

 Are we there yet? Well, the next thing you know we drive into this area that looks like a college campus. You know lots of buildings and dorms. Being 3 years old and not ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

knowing what a college campus looked like made it all strange and fascinating to me. We went to the dining hall and they seated me at a square table with seven other little boys between the ages of 3 and 6, two per side. Afterwards, I walked with the boys to their dormitory. I don’t remember my mom telling me I was going to live here.

Me live here? Yet this is interesting and fascinating because we go into this room we have to sit in three rows (there are about 12 of us) and we watch TV. The only challenge is that the show we get to watch is Perry Mason, which our houseparent enjoys. I don’t know about you but at 3 years old, I really wasn’t into Perry Mason.  A 3 year old wants to know where were were the funny looking characters, the falls, the talking mouse and duck and of course Foghorn-Leghorn and the little chicken hawk, “I say, I say look at me boy when I’m talking to ya son!” That night I slept in aexperience new bed inwith a room with 12 life. other boys. This was my introduction and first orphanage The pattern became one, of my mother visiting every Friday evening through Sunday noon. During the week, I would live the life of an orphan. It was regimented and structured. There were rules, lots of rules. It is also fun. One Friday afternoon I was on the concrete porch waiting for my mom. I waited and waited and waited. After a while I started getting that feeling in my stomach of not getting what I wanted, that feeling of loss, that feeling of fear.  As it grew and compounded upon itself, feeling upon feeling, it moved into blame, shame, guilt and fear. The dreaded why question came up, why me? What have I done to deserve this? I began to feel hopeless and lost.

I began to cry. 5 I stood on that porch crying, bawling and feeling worthless until it was dark and I was made to go to bed. It is interesting that there was a part of me that stayed on that porch hope against hope that she would show up. The next morning before they rang the big bell in the middle of the campus that signalled we had thirty minutes to go to the dining hall for breakfast, I was back on that little 3x4 concrete porch pacing, looking and waiting with hope. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

 After breakfast, which I did not eat, I was back on the porch feeling the hopelessness starting to creep back upon me. I don’t know how long it took, maybe 10 minutes, maybe 30 minutes or an hour. All I know is that by lunch I was bawling and completely hopeless again.

  his continued all day Saturday and all day Sunday.

When Monday rolled around, my unconscious already knew that my mother was normally never there on Monday. I went into that mode of being the little boy living in this place with 175 other kids ranging from the age of 3 months to 18 years of age. They call it an orphanage. The next Friday about the same time I was back out on that porch pacing, waiting and hoping! This weekend wasn’t as bad as the weekend before and by the next weekend I barely noticed she wasn’t there. In fact, I didn’t notice she did not come. Later in life, one of the possible meanings I gave to this episode was that the orphanage administrators had asked my mother not to come. Maybe I wasn’t adjusting to orphanage life well enough. Whether it was true or not wasn’t important. It was just a way that I used to cope, justify, honor my mother and take the responsibility for what was going on. This gave me more power and control over me.

What are you thinking and believing that gives you more power and control over you?  After the porch escapade, my mother came and visited me about twice a year during those early years and I would get to go home (Grandma’s house) for ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

about a week once a year. At those times, I would spend time with my mom, my brother, my Grandma and John-Daddy (my grandfather). In later years my Grandma would tell me that she had raised my brother, who was ten years older than me, and had not wanted to raise another child. That’s how I happened to end up in the orphanage.  Almost every time I tell my story (and this is just the beginning) I usually throw in a few jokes and humor. My story, my entire story is about empowerment. I have very rarely told it as a tearjerker. On the few occasions, where I just really made people feel sad it was because they were talking about how bad their past had been. My Grampa Vetter said we have some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that you’re the only problem you have and the good news is...

 You are the solution. 7

I grew up in a fundamentalist Christian orphanage. Although they didn’t realize it, and they didn’t intend it to be, it was fantastic. I grew up believing that we had it right and that if others just believed it the way we did, they would be all right, too. Except the words and actions just did not line up together. They keep talking about knowing the truth and the truth setting you free. Except that the truth or what they were calling the truth, their interpretation of truth puts people in bondage.  Anyway, I grew up, went to college and seminary and became a pastor—which pastor—which was blasphemy to the Christian group I was raised in. They had a problem with the word “pastor", not the job description of what one does, just the title. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

One day someone asked me why I was a pastor, since what I did as a pastor, my job description was not in the book (Bible). So I searched it out. What I did was in the book, but no one person did it. So for me, I just became a believer again and started giving responsibility back to others. Looking up the word RESPONSIBILITY was a fun endeavour.

Responsibility has nothing to do with blame, shame, guilt or fear. Oh, by the way, blame, shame, guilt and fears are things other people (and sometimes we) use to try to control others. They are useless emotions used to control others. When you look up the word “responsibility” in the dictionary, it says something about commitment. It did not look right, sound right or feel right. So I looked up the word “ability," which means, “power to” and the prefix “re” means “again, once again." On the other hand, like we said as kids, “do over". Therefore, responsibility has something to do with the power to do something again. The word “spond” wasn’t in the regular dictionary, so I went to the Greek dictionary. There I found the word “sponde." It is a Greek musical term meaning “liberation, to liberate." Responsibility means the power to once again liberate. Personal Responsibility is the power to again liberate oneself. What a great word. Wouldn’t you like to…

8

Once, again, liberate yourself. Now let’s clarify two little words that may have caused you a few problems because we haven’t had them cleared up. The words are “to” and “for." People get stuck when they take “responsibility for” someone or something when they should be taking “responsibility to."  As an example, let’s presuppose that one of the main reasons we are here on planet earth is to learn. So each one of us, man, woman and child is here to learn. This gives us the power to liberate ourselves again. For the sake of this example, let’s say that a child runs out into the street and is hit by a car. Who’s responsible for this? Now some people will blame, accuse or ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

assign responsibility for this to the driver. Some assign it to the parents, but not many where the responsibility really lies. The driver is responsible to drive safely. The parents’ responsibility is to caringly teach, to pass on to the child the wisdom of looking before entering the street. The child has the power to liberate itself by learning to take responsibility “for” what he has been taught. You are responsible “to” family, friends and society to differing degrees and yet you are only responsible “for” yourself and your communication. Foundation Stone:

  he meaning of your communication is the response you get, not your intention. In addition, that brings up the question, “How do we communicate?” which leads to the discussion about the conscious and the unconscious (or the subconscious). We understand language by way of our unconscious processes. We will discuss this in the next chapter.

9 Let’s talk now about changing habits because that is a big part of creating WISDOM. Universities like Duke and Stanford were doing studies on how to help people change habits and they wound up studying Hypnosis. You see, they found out that to consciously change a habit takes anywhere from 17 to 18 months. Take weight for example. One would have to get down to their ideal weight and then continue doing the same things consciously for another 17 to 18 months to hopefully make it an unconscious habit. No wonder many the diet programs don’t last because the average American diet starts on Monday and ends on Wednesday. I’ve had people tell me theirs started on Monday and ended on the same s ame Monday. They determined to change a habit that one might as well do it where the habit resides, in the unconscious. That way it can be changed a whole lot quicker and easier. Like someone says, “Hypnosis is the easiest, quickest, most cost effective way to get long term permanent results.” ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

Hypnosis is not mystical or magical. Every human being goes through… a naturally occurring state at least twice a day whether they want to or not. Like a broken clock has to be right at least twice a day. My belief is that all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. The hypnotists aren’t the real hypnotists, you are. You are the one who is going to relax and take these suggestions. Hypnotist are just the guides, teachers and coaches. We don’t get to play the game, you do. The Universities said they felt there were three types of people who couldn’t be hypnotized. The first type of person is someone with an IQ of 70 or below. The reason is all hypnosis is just a brainwave pattern. I don’t know if you are aware that the Beta brainwave is the one of the four brainwaves that is used for trance level -- which is the fastest, most active. That is where we store judgment, stress, anger, frustration, fear, and any of the negative emotions. That’s about 12 percent. We spend most of our time in this trance. We call it the reactive mind. m ind. Supporting that are the Alpha and Theta trance levels. Have you ever been at a red light, it turned green, and someone behind you had to honk at you? That’s an Alpha Trance. Also, when you’re in an elevator or driving your car and not remembering the last 15 minutes are also Alpha Trances. Now the Theta brainwave trance is when you are relaxing at home watching TV, listening to music or lying in bed with your eyes closed and you can hear everything that’s going on. Your body’s asleep, yet your mind’s awake. The 10 phone rings or someone calls your name and you go, “Oh! leave me alone because I feel so good.” That’s the Theta trance level. Below that is Delta level. Have you ever been asleep? Then you were in a trance, a Delta Trance. The reason the Universities said that someone with an IQ of 70 or below could not be hypnotized is because they didn’t think they could hold the trance level long enough to be able to take the suggestions. Clinical hypnosis is performed in the Theta trance level. When someone with an IQ of 70 or below closes their eyes and they are not receiving visual stimulation they go right through Theta to Delta. The second type of person they said could not be hypnotized is someone who is on severe mind-altering drugs, drunk or stoned. It makes complete sense to me. They are already in a trance and very suggestible. Why would I want to get them in another trance? ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

The third type of person that they said could not be hypnotized is someone who chooses not to be. Which goes back to my belief that all hypnosis is selfhypnosis. Now, the reason hypnosis works is because you work perfectly. You are getting everything you have programmed yourself to get. Let me give you an example: when we were little our metabolism was faster, plates were smaller and our parents would tell us things like “eat everything on your plate because there are starving children in….” Therefore, when we were full we would continue to eat to please… Mom and Dad. Now that we are older, our metabolism is slower slo wer and the plates are larger.  A lot of the time when we are full we have a hard time not wanting wanting to clean the rest of our plates because of the patterns we established when we were younger. So one of the big morals of the story is, like Grampa Vetter said:

What youlearn fail tothrough learn through thro ugh intelligence, intelli gence, you will physical example.

Let’s say that again, and louder.

In the next chapter, we are going to learn the starting point needed to build a foundation for The Power Portal…

15 Chapter 2

Basic Foundation to the Power Portal  Way back up in one of the hollers of East Tennessee there lived an old man and his They named were poor. They poor;value in fact, that they only had an old grandson. swayback mule Hiney thatwere was so of any at all. They had talked it over and decided they needed to take Hiney down to the town at the bottom of the holler and sell him for money to buy some food or trade him for some magical beans. (That’s another story.) So, they started out early one morning because it was a long trip and it would take all day to make it down to the village. Picture this, an old man and his young grandson, leading ole swayback Hiney down the trail.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Well, as luck would have it, the trail led by Mr. Johnson’s house, and sittin’ on the porch were Mr. Johnson, Mr. Smith, Mr. Hatfield and Mr. McCoy. They were rockin’ in their rockers, smoking their pipes. One of them said, “Well lookie yonder at that old man who’s not very smart. The boy is young with strong legs so he should be ridin’ that ole swayback mule and let the boy lead." Upon hearing this, the old man decided to ride Hiney and let his grandson lead Hiney down the trail. Later in the day as they were passing the small wooden church, they heard the preacher’s wife remark to her husband: “Look at that honey. Look how shameful that is. There is a man riding while he’s making that poor boy walk.”  After hearing that, the old man decided to let his grandson ride Hiney and he would walk.  A little farther down, around lunchtime, they passed by a stream where kids were swimming and overheard the children say that if it were them they would both ride the mule. So, the old man and his grandson both got on Hiney’s back and slowly made their way down the trail. 16  About mid-afternoon they passed by a house where a group of women were were visiting someone in need. They overheard the women say how sad it was, and how cruel it was, for that old donkey to be carrying both the old man and the little boy. They talked about howrelief hardand the wouldn’t life of that ole nice donkey must have and been and that he should have some it be if the old man the boy were to carry the donkey instead of the donkey carrying them. Well the old man and his grandson thought that was a good idea so they got down off Hiney, put him on their backs, and headed on down the trail to town. Now going into town from the direction that they were coming they had to cross a hand-made rope bridge, it was almost like a swinging bridge. Well halfway across, Hiney shifted his weight, the old man and his grandson lost their grips and Hiney fell off the bridge. He fell fe ll way down into the valley below and died. If you learn very little from this story, I hope you learn the lesson that the ole man and his grandson learned. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

IF YOU TRY TO PLEASE EVERYONE, YOU WIND UP LOSING YOUR HINEY! So, instead of trying to please everyone else it may be valuable to determine what it is you want or where you want to go. To do that, you have to know where you are and where you want to go. (We will deal with this even more in later chapters.)  As with most things, it is useful to discover your foundation in any given area. This area of creating wisdom is no different. I’m reminded of what that great philosopher said one time when I was listening to a response he was giving to his superior. You may have heard him yourself.

17 It was on a ship… a starship… the Starship Enterprise. Captain Kirk had just come back from a parallel universe and was observing that even though in the parallel universe the values were pretty much the opposite from theirs, Mr. Spock seemed to do quite well using logic and Mr. Spock replied as he raised an eyebrow:

 Anything can be logical; logical;

it just depends what you base the logic on. If you are alive, breathing and reading this information then you qualify for what is being presented here. It is very logical and foundational that you understand the following premise. Otherwise, you will lose your Hiney. Some people are constantly wondering who am I. They even come to therapists, preachers and friends, and ask, “Who am I really?” I’m sure you know people like this, and may have thought about it yourself. My Grampa Vetter used to say something he heard from someone else, maybe someone acknowledgement page of this book the question isn’t who am I, but who on canthe I be. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

“Who am I is the wrong w rong question.” Even though “Who am I?” is the wrong question to ask, we might as well answer it since so many people want to know who they are. And to answer the question of “Who am I?”, we are going to look at a concept that will once and for all answer the question off “Who am I?” that is inescapable for each and every one of us.

THE ANSWER TO THE WRONG QUESTION IS  What people are, really? Regardless of whether or not they want to be, regardless of whether or not they agree to be, regardless of whether or not they chose to be everyone is: The old saying goes there are two types of people in the world: ______ and those that don’t know they are. Salespeople and those that don’t know they are. Therapists and those that don’t know they are. Persuaders and those that don’t know they are. 18 Breathers and those that don’t know they are.  Alive and those that don’t know they are.  All of these are true. The blank could be any number of things. I am reminded of what my Grampa Vetter used to say, “What people fail to learn through intelligence, they will learn through physical example.” It really holds true for what is being presented here. Words that really fit the blank, whether or not people want them to or not are sales people, therapists, persuaders, alive, etc. and the phrase that is much inescapable is Professional Communicator because you cannot, not communicate. In addition, every communication is an attempt to persuade, convince or get someone to agree, acknowledge, or validate your position or your communication. 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, day in and day out, you communicate.

There really are two types of people in the world:

Professional Communicators and those that do not know they are. Corner Stone:

REAL RE ALL LY, YOU ARE ARE A PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICA OR Whether you want to be or not, you are a Professional Communicator, 24/7. You might say, “Ok, I’ll agree with the communicator part, but not the professional part. So, what is a professional? Some of the definitions of professional are: 1) belonging to or connected with a profession. a. Every human being communicates. 19 2) skillful, worthy of a profession a. Every human has varying skillfulness at communicating. b. Every human is worthy, just from the fact f act that he exists. 3) engaged in a specific activity as one’s main occupation.  

a. People cannot not communicate no matter what they do 24 hours a day 7 days a week, day in and day out they communicate. b. If that’s not main occupation, I don’t know what is.

So what does a Professional Communicator do?

Every communication, communication, to some degree, is an attempt to persuade, convince or get someone to agree, to acknowledge, or validate your position or your communication. communication. 20 How does it feel to finally understand that you are a professional at something no matter what you do? You are a Professional Communicator and, as such, you can take pride in the fact that you were born, created and brought into this life to be a Professional Communicator. Every human being is a goal-seeking organism. Every human being is a criteriafilling machine, criteria being things that we want emotionally and internally. Now the question comes up: since everyone is a Professional Communicator, how can someone be the best Professional Communicator there is? If not that, how can someone be a better Professional Communicator? Or how can one be a more useful Professional Communicator? Now UPCs (Useful Professional Communicators) realize that they communicate not only to others but they first communicate to themselves before they communicate to others. They also understand one cannot, not communicate. You can’t help it. Have you ever wondered what you are communicating? Is what you are communicating to yourself helping you get what you want or is it holding you back? Is it moving you in the direction where you want to go or is it allowing you to blame something or someone else for what is going on? Is what you are communicating empowering you or dis-empowering you? ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

Foundation Stone:

Since you cannot not communicate, what are you communicating to yourself first? Feelings of blame, shame, guilt, fear or not quite measuring up are all things we have communicated to ourselves based on the mind-read we have attached to others communicating. Well the truth of the matter is, they are just communicating what is going on inside of them and it is no more true than what is going on inside of you. There is no such thing as blame, shame, guilt, fear or not quite measuring up. There is just feedback you use to calibrate to your outcome and make the adjustments that move you closer to what you want. 21 Foundation Stone:

  ake everything as Feedback. Since we communicate first with ourselves, it is imperative that we learn to language ourselves in the most useful way possible. The first thing we can do to help ourselves is to take or express any negative self-descriptions, any problems that are presenting themselves to us at this time and anything that is limiting us in the past tense. As an example, you can use the phrase “Up until now” this and that. Or “In the past” thus and so.  Another powerful you can replace the “but”doing with a with the word “and.” Everything behindthing the word "but"doisiscancelled out.word “You’re good job, but…” Change it to “You’re doing a good job and…” Like Grampa Vetter used to say, “No boubt adout it, Grandma’s sweeter when she says she loves me ‘and’…. It’s when I hear the ‘but’ that I know it’s gonna be my butt.” “But” means your butt is going to pay. pa y.  Another thing that will really help you to begin to use The Power Portal and be 'at cause' is replace the world “can’t” with the more honest word “won’t”. This allows you to be more responsible for yourself.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

You may also consider substituting the word “could” for the word “should.” Do this experiment. Say, “I should do this”. Then say, “I could do this”. Which feels better? “Should” will probably feel heavier and “could” should feel lighter. OK, “could” could feel lighter. One other word (and this is a word you will eliminate completely) is “try.” I want you to read this line of print and then I want you to “try” and read this line of print. What is the difference between reading and “trying” to read? The difference to your unconscious, because it takes things literally, is the word “try” which presupposes failure. Eliminate the word “try” and replace it with a word such as “will.”  A useful way to respond to unwanted information (insults, criticisms and guilt statements) is to begin your response with: “I appreciate and… I respect and… or I agree and…” If someone says, “You are absolutely wrong” about this situation. You could easily respond, “I respect the strength of your feelings in regard to this, and I 22 think if you were to fully hear my side of the story you, might think things differently." It only takes four things to be successful. Now I bet you’re thinking, “He’s crazy. If it only takes four things to get what you want, how come everyone doesn’t do it?” I would answer, “Good question!” Let me lay it out for f or you and see what you think, OK? Lots of people set goals. Some people write them. Some people just say them. In addition, people don’tvery know if they have any told or not. Thegoals challenge goals is thatsome they are usually vague and we are to set just with outside our reach. Goals are things we hope for. "I hope I get my goal, then I will be happy" is a sentiment we hear expressed by many people. One of the most useful things a person can do is to transform a goal into a well-formed outcome. An outcome implies that if I do these things I will get these results. We W e will cover more of this in the next chapter. The next thing one needs after you determine your outcome is calibrating skills. This simply means the ability to tell the difference between where you are and where you are going. Then by adding behavioral flexibility, which is the ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

Our ongoing discovery of The Power Portal leads us to the next chapter, where we will discuss the structure of the mind and this thing called hypnosis…

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

26 Chapter 3

The Structure of Hypnosis and the Brain/Mind One the things that’s going happen here is integration. As I said, you haveof learned many things overtothe course of your lifetime. You’ve learned not only from direct suggestion and illustration, you’ve learned them by inference as you begin to figure out and make these things your own.  And then you’ve learned by example as you go out during the course of your life (the week) and you notice how your perceptions have changed, how your behaviour changes and how the perceptions and behaviours of those around you change as well. People can have a lot of funny ideas about hypnosis. Hypnosis and hypnotists have been portrayed in various guises in movies, books and theatre. You’ve all seen these portrayals: the saggy looking guy; big, burly, with piercing eyes, and a mesmerizing m esmerizing gaze. There have stories depicting people using hypnosis to take unfair advantage of others. They take control of people or even impart skill levels or abilities to them that they didn’t have before. These things are not true. Think about this with me for a moment - if hypnosis was in fact about control, wouldn’t you now be paying me hundreds of thousands of dollars and sending every friend you have to me. Since that’s not the case, we now know that hypnosis is not about control. co ntrol.

Absolute control under hypnosis is ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

absolutely up to you. To the extent that you are comfortable giving up control to an 'other', whether it’s an outside influence, a person, a thing or a passing belief, that is totally up to you. However, it also means that the intensity and the effect of the experience you have while in trance are your choice. The degree to which you establish rapport with the hypnotist and you offer yourself up for experimentation and adventure is the exact degree you have in 27 terms of what effect this is going to have in your life and whether you’re able to effect lasting change.  Another misconception people can have about hypnosis revolves around the whole idea of depth of trance. The idea of “You’re going DEEPER and DEEPER" into trance is false. There’s really no such thing th ing as depth in a trance. If there was such a thing as depth, your hypnotic session would be done on the top of DEEPER the Sears and Tower and I’d be lowering you offvarying the balcony. Saying, “You’re going DEEPER.” Instead there are degrees of trance and susceptibility. There are four levels of brain wave activity,: beta, alpha, theta and delta. We can talk about levels of trance as well. Again as we work through these things they are not true models; rather, useful models. They are illustrations that allow you to get to the deeper aspect of it. Your mind is set up, for our purposes here, like this. You have conscious thought. You have the hypnoidale level. These incidentals are the levels the academics talk about. Some schools say a person has 12 levels of trance. Which only tells me these people have way to much education. These academies are just looking for very fine gradations of change when it’s really not necessary. Hypnoidale has to do with, corresponds with, a light trance and is characterized by rapid eye movement, as if you were dreaming. This is what happens in alpha level. Next is the cataleptic level which is a medium trance with eye movement from side to side. Then there is somnambulistic level. This is a deep trance. The eyes roll up in their sockets and the subject exhibits what we call the hypnotic mask. Regardless of what is going on inside the mind, their face is very relaxed and smooth. They look ten years younger.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

 Any hypnotist can get you in and out of any of these levels. The important thing to remember is there is no correlation between “strength of effect” and “depth of trance.” What we are really talking about here is the degree of physical relaxation. Your body will become very deeply relaxed. rela xed. When in a deep trance, I’m willing to wager when you come out of it, it will take you a little bit longer to emerge. You may feel a little groggy as you come out; however, you will feel intensely relaxed as if you just had a wonderful sleep.

28 That’s because (another misconception) hypnosis is similar to but not related to sleep. We speak colloquially of hypnosis as sleep. As “SLEEP NOW!” (Finger snap) This is a simple command that uses a reference system the subject already knows. It’s not really sleep, it’s the sleep of the nervous system. Paradoxically your awareness is enhanced as you go in a trance. All your senses are extended and strengthened, while the body goes to sleep. The original word “hypnosis” refers to sleep; sleep of the nervous system. This term is relatively new although hypnosis has been around for a long time. The Egyptians had sleep temples – healing sleep temples, fabulous concept. If something were wrong with you, if all the herbal remedies weren’t really doing the trick, you would go to a sleep temple and lie down on a pa pallet. llet. The priest would enter and chant an incantation over you until you slipped into a healing sleep. Some of these people would sleep there for two or three days and wake up relaxed, refreshed and restored to a state of mental and physical health. Sound familiar? Hypnosis, they didn’t have the concept, they just knew it worked. The Egyptians weren’t so sufficiently hindered by their level of education that they built an academic framework around it. They just knew it worked. So as you move in and out of these states, change is occurring on all these different levels. The important thing to focus on is that you go into trance and journey through any of these levels. You are not really going to sleep; rather you are changing the type and strength of suggestibility. Suggestibility means you’re beginning to now learn in new ways. Suggestibility occurs when you open yourself up to new ideas, new feelings, new thoughts and new behaviour. You take them in. You try them on and see if they fit. There have been several studies done that show that the most capable people of our times were highly suggestible. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

I mean, you would think that someone who was so strongly focused and so successful would be shoving things out of the way. The exact opposite is true. Instead, whenever they run across anything new they immediately take it in. They try it out six or seven different ways to see if they can put into effect in their lives. Only then do they make the decision to keep it. It is the weaker people or the people who are learning at a slower level who are, in fact, pushing things away and are closed off to suggestion. 29 Yet, one of the main reasons people can have misconceptions about hypnosis is they don’t understand how the mind works. (Draw a circle.) This is your mind. When you are born you have a reptilian brain that is the seat of your instincts. You really only have two instincts. You are born with a fear of loud noises and a fear of falling. f alling. That’s it. Everything else you learn. This part of the mind is one of three categories of mind or mental behavior that will be discussed today. However, we’re really not going to pay much attention to it. This is the seat of the autonomic nervous system; which controls your breathing and heart rate. It also controls your immune system. If necessary, we can get down to that level and effect very basic change like amping up your immune system. Yet, that’s not really what we are going to be talking about here.

HOW THE MIND WORKS Three levels of behaviors of the mind.

Critical Factor

Don’t let me FALL! That LOUD NOISE frightens me!

Primitive Brain (Reptilian) Seat of Instincts Autonomic Nervous System Breathing, Heart Rate Immune System

Don’t let me FALL! That LOUD NOISE frightens me!  YOUR MIND

When you are born, you are born a powerful learning machine. Open to new experiences. A sense of wonder and everything is true. To a child everything is true. Between 4 - 7 years of age, a defense mechanism called the Critical Factor is developed. It’s like a computer program. It compares what comes in with what’s already stored… When you are born, you are a very powerful learning machine with this fantastic mind that doesn’t have anything in it. You are totally open to new experiences. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

So the very small child is always looking around. The world is filled with wonder. Everything is a brand new discovery. Everything is true. To a small child everything is true. This is the glory and the tragedy of it because parents don’t understand. Young parents are dumb as rocks when it comes to this because they think they can 31 say anything around the child as long as they are not saying something to the child. While little Susie is playing happily on the floor, Mom says to the neighbor, “Well, we really hadn’t planned on her. She’s an accident.” Little Susie hears this. She may not understand, but she accepts it as true and she will integrate it into all her subsequent learning’s and behaviors.  Alternatively, my personal favorite is, "I’m an alcoholic. You’re the son of an alcoholic. You’ll never amount to anything.” You want to know how alcoholics are created. Somebody got real stupid with ‘em when they were young. So what happens when you pick up these impressions? Things come in from the outside and they get stored away. One of the aspects of the unconscious mind is that, it’s really lazy, it tends toward the negative. So as you're storing experiences away, the negatives tend to loom larger than the positives. I’m not really sure why this is. I don’t really care why this is. I do know this is the model that works. Actually when you understand the parameters of the unconscious, which we have put in this book, it gives a good explanation of why this is and how to change it. So you’re building up experiences and you’re just like the average computer you can only do those things that you are programmed to do. In addition, the way humans get programmed is by bringing in experiences and then comparing what comes in next with the previous experience. Now around the age of 4 - 7, (it varies with the individual) there develops a behavior called the critical factor. This is a defense mechanism that separates the conscious mind and the unconscious mind and every time something comes in, an experience, a feeling, a concept, whatever it’s compared to what has gone before. The only thing the critical factor is interested in is does it match my experience or belief. If it doesn’t match the experience or belief it’s rejected, it’s outta of there. There is no change. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

If it does match, it goes inside and reinforces the previously held behavior. It makes it much more difficult to learn. People get set in their ways. Right?

33 How many people know really beautiful or handsome people who complain that they are not attractive? It’s absolutely astonishing, they look in the mirror, and everyone else thinks they are drop dead gorgeous, they look in the mirror and what they see are flaws. Their pores are too big. Their face is asymmetrical. They don’t like their cheekbones. There is always something wrong. That’s because at some point in their early childhood and a lot of beautiful women were gawky kids, they developed this core set of beliefs. After that no matter what happens, in terms of outside influence, they cling to these core beliefs. What hypnosis does… Is it bypasses the Critical Factor. Hypnotherapy is the only form of therapy, behavioral therapy, that deliberately ignores the conscious mind, bypasses the Critical Factor and works directly with the unconscious. Why do we do this? We want to get right down to these core beliefs and either show the individual why they are not valid and not necessary and there’s no need to have them anymore. Or to reframe them so that instead of these negatives you’re changing them into positives. Let’s talk a little bit about the functions of the different kinds of brains. The conscious mind, well, we dealt with the primitive mind-autonomic nervous system. We’re not going to mess with it right now. Keep breathing. Keep your heart going, ok? The conscious mind has four basic behaviors. It’s the analytical mind. The conscious mind is very, very skilled at pattern recognition and taking the inputs comparing it with previous experiences and patterns of behavior that have worked. And analyzing a pattern of behavior that it thinks will work for you. It’s also the rational mind. Now rationalization is an interesting thing. The rational mind will always come up with a reason for why you’re doing what you’re doing. It doesn’t have to be true and 9 times out of 10 it’s not. But this part of your brain is (finger snaps, repeatedly) working all the time to come up with rationalizations to make your behavior make sense. “I can’t lose weight because my metabolism isn’t right!” “I smoke because I really like the way it tastes, even after 3 packs a day.” Things like this. The rationalizations are just constructs that allow you to not think. We use rationalizations in place of genuine experience and thought. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

The conscious mind is also the seat of temporary memory. Temporary for many people is real temporary. Things like you walk into a kitchen look up u p a phone

34 number, walk into the next room in order to actually pick up the phone and, by the time you are there, you not only can’t remember the phone number, you can’t remember why you’re standing in this room. Temporary memory is like scratch pad memory. It’s where you put something you’re going to use right away and then it gets wiped out. The fourth category is willpower. Willpower is the weak sister of the mind. It’s the junk candy of the mind. It’s all calories, no substance. Willpower is not very strong at all because you’re using rationalizations to try to talk yourself into things. This is why affirmations can have strength, but only if they are phrased correctly and repeated over and over and over again until you’re ingraining a habit of behavior as well as the content of the affirmation. Think about it for a second. There is a weight loss affirmation when you look in the mirror and say, “I am thin and healthy.” Well your unconscious, which is also paying attention, says, “No you’re not Jack. Who’re you trying to kid? This doesn’t work. You look 20 pounds overweight to me.” This is why affirmations don’t really have a lot of strength because it’s the willpower which has to constantly be pumped up with energy to be effective at all and all you’re doing is rehearsing the higher level behavior. You’re not really effecting change. Let’s get to the unconscious. This is the really interesting stuff. Down here you’ve got permanent memory. Everything you have ever thought, felt, experienced is stored away in perfect fidelity. Now there’s argument, about whether you store the actually memory or do you merely store all the things that must be true in order for the memory to be true. This is the sort of argument that the academics get into or the information scientist verses psychologist. What’s important for you to remember is that under trance we can zoom back in space and time and recreate and reexperience anything that has ever happened to you in perfect fidelity. Because it’s all stored away. The second thing is habits. How many habits do we have? How many habits do you have? I’m going to maintain that you’ve got at most three habits. I’m not really sure about three. You’ve got good habits, you’ve got bad habits and you’ve got utilitarian habits. Now good habits and bad habits are both behaviors that lead to a desired outcome. The good or bad just refers to whether you think it works and whether other people think it works or should work. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

 A bad habit is usually something that somebody else has a problem with. You’re doing it because it gets you something. It can either be a direct gain, like if I do this I get my cookie or it can be what we call a secondary se condary gain. 35  A secondary gain, if I do this, well maybe people aren’t happy with me, maybe I’m not happy, but it prevents this other thing from occurring. Things like I’m going to eat a lot and I’m not real happy about how it gives me a lot of weight but I’m not going to have any trouble with the opposite sex because they’re not going to be approaching me. The third class of habit is by far the most powerful it’s utilitarian habit. The classic example is the ringing of the telephone. People are so conditioned to the ringing of a telephone that you can be doing brain surgery, the phone rings and you go, “I’ll get that!” Very, very powerful stuff, you can learn to control this but only by going in and sorting it out where it actually works in the unconscious mind. Emotions are down here in the unconscious. The conscious mind doesn’t have much use for emotions. They don’t help you in analyzing things; they don’t help you in rationalizing things. Emotions – How many people have experienced emotions welling up from inside? It feels like it’s coming up, well that’s because it’s down in your unconscious mind. When you need an emotion or when an external stimulus is strong enough the critical factor steps aside, the emotion comes up and you experience it for better or for worse. 'Cause let’s face it; there are good emotions we want to have, like we want to have love, happiness and ecstasy. Yet we don’t want to have other emotions such as fear, pain and jealousy.  Again there are no positive or negatives; there are no truth or lies in the unconscious mind so the emotions are strictly utilitarian as far as your mind is concerned. They come welling up pretty much on their command. Women are wired much better than men. What happens is as we grow up, let’s make a further useful distinction and talk about hemispheres. And one hemisphere is believed to be predominately in terms of logical, rational, goal-directed thoughts and behaviors. The other hemisphere has to do with creativity, intuition and things like this. Women are so much better connected, not only in terms of using both sides of their conscious mind but also having the direct pipeline to the unconscious mind. It’s really phenomenal. Men grow up and tend to favor the logical, analytical, rational part of their mind. You might argue that this helps them go out and spear mastodons. I don’t know; I just see that it happens. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

36 So part of what we do in terms of integration with men when they come to someone like us as clients is we get them to sit down and shut up and understand clearly logically, and how much benefit they will get if they start to listen to their intuition. Start to get them rewired and get that communication flowing again. So anyway emotions come bubbling up, they are used; you let go of them, the critical factor closes and you’re back in your normal state. The fourth major function of the unconscious mind is that it houses the protective mind. That protective mind is the part that wants to take good care of you and make sure not only that physically you’re ok; because we’ve all had the experience if we touch something hot your hand jerks back. You haven’t consciously thought anything. It’s not the conscious mind that did that. You also have patterns of behavior, like the example I used earlier, gaining weight in order to make sure that you don’t get involved in any sex because you don’t want to expose yourself to intimacy. These are aspects of the protective mind, but the flaw in the plan is that the unconscious mind is not the problemsolving rational mind. Therefore, the defenses you come up with might be really messed up in terms of your personal growth, but they will protect you from that particular thing that you fear, the perceived threat. This is one of the ways hypnosis can be so powerful in effecting change. As we get down here and reframe what you see as threats or benefits, the change in your protective mechanism can be instant. When you no longer perceive that threat, you no longer need the defense. The defense will not be there and the energy is freed up to go do something else. So when we put somebody into a hypnotic trance we tell the conscious mind, “Go lay on the beach!” Critical Factor is bypassed and communications are opened directly to and from the unconscious. If this were all there was to hypnosis it would be totally cool. I could go in, I could do anything. You’d all be my love, money, power, and sex slaves. But that’s not the way it works.

Because it’s a little more complex. When a suggestion or a command passes into the unconscious mind four things ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

Sensory Acuity is greatly enhanced in trance. You are in control of the process. Your body goes to sleep but your mind is still hearing everything that is going on. No one can take advantage of you. No one can take control of you. However, there is one thing over which you have no control whatsoever. That is there are only four possible reactions to a suggestion. The first reaction is; “I like that suggestion, I understand it’s going to work.” You bring it in and you accept it. You try it on, you walk it around, you see how it feels and change, beneficial change is effected immediately. (finger snap) Now that’s great, that’s what you should be doing. However there are three other possible reactions. The second reaction is, You hear the suggestion and it violates one of your core beliefs. Maybe it’s a religious belief. Maybe it’s a self-limiting belief that you’ve practiced for far to long. Whenever the suggestion touches directly on a limiting belief or a disagreement then you will shy away from that suggestion and no change will occur. The third possible reaction is you hear the suggestion or command and you just feel neutral about it. You don’t like it you don’t dislike it. It just doesn’t seem to have any impact on your life at all. You let it go. No change occurs. o ccurs. Now the fourth possible reaction you can have is the one that holds back more people from change than any other. It holds back people who are eager, chomping at the bit for transformational change than any other possible reaction. I give the suggestion or command, their unconscious mind says I like that suggestion, I hope it’s going to work. 39 ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Well hoping doesn’t get you anywhere. It’s like saying I’m going to try and effect change. Trying is lying. Anytime you try to do something you admit the possibility of failure and because your unconscious mind is so freaking lazy it goes for failure over success every time. So the key for you to understand now is, basically, what you must realize to be effective in your trance work is that if you want change, if you really desire transformational change and you want your life to get better, you’ve got to put the energy into it and you’ve got to commit. The suggestion comes in, you hear it, you say, “I like that suggestion, I understand its going to work, I believe it’s going to work. I’m going to try it on, walk it around. I’m gonna be everything I can possible be. This is good.” (The reason we use “gonna” is because it might not be proper grammar, but that’s what’s said inside your head.) If  for some reason the suggestion is not for you, you will naturally, easily discard it down the road. Your protective mind will take care of you. However, if you commit to change. If you really want it and you get the properly phased suggestion from a trained professional. You will effect amazing change on the spot.

Learning and the Four hings that can Happen 1st Reaction: I like that suggestion, I understand it’s going to work. You bring it and you accept. I try it on, walk it around, and see how it feels. (Change, beneficial change is effected immediately.) 2nd Reaction: Hear the suggestion and it violates one of your core beliefs. (Maybe religious or self-limiting) You will shy away from that suggestion and no change will occur. 3rd Reaction: Hear the suggestion and you just feel neutral about it.  You don’t like it you you don’t dislike it. It just doesn’t seem to have any impact on your life. You let it go. No change occurs.

40 4th Reaction THIS HOLDS MORE PEOPLE BACK THAN A ANY NY OTHER. Hear the suggestion and you say “I likeHope that is like try. suggestion, I HOPE its going to work.” ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

Trying is lying to the unconscious. Because it is so freakin’ lazy it goes for failure over success every time.

Limiting beliefs normally come from beliefs that were useful as a child. Reframe to what is the aspect of (the presenting problem) that brings you interesting and useful things. Go back and work with how that belief came to be and how you perceive and how you correctly position it in your life. Example: There are limiting beliefs that are perfectly valid for a child to believe. It’s important that kids understand there are certain things they must do and not do in order to protect them. These are no longer appropriate in adult life, but because you have practiced and it worked and you understand it to be true. You’re still doing this in adult life. It’s like somebody has found out when they were two years old, that by sulking they could get attention from their mother. They get to be forty years old and their managers are giving them a hard time. So they are sitting in the office and they start to sulk. They are not conscious of it. It certainly is not going to lead to success but it’s what they understand to be true. So you have to go in and work with correctly positioning this in your life. When it’s no longer such a controlling belief then suggestions can have a greater impact. What you have got to understand is the hypnotist is a guide. We’re not the controllers. We’re not someone who is going to do something to you. We are your guides here. People ask me all the time, “What is your success rate using hypnosis?” In addition, I tell them. I say look I gotta be honest with you. The absolute truth is my success rate is 100 percent. I know exactly what to say to you. I can speak in just the right tonality, the right tempo so that I can construct powerful and effective suggestions for long lasting change. I can guide you into profound areas of trance. Make you feel relaxed and happy. Have you come out singing and dancing? I know how to empathize with you, establish rapport. Call on my deep-seated emotions to find out what is the real problem? What are you really trying to say? So the real question is not how effective I am? I will always be 100 percent effective. The real question is, “What are you going to do?” Are you going to listen carefully? Are you going to go into trance when it is appropriate to do so?

41  Are you going to allow these suggestions to come in? To give them a chance, try them out, walk them around and see how it feels before you decide to keep them? ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

If you’re willing to do your part… then you’ll be 100 percent effective as well. What you have to understand is that by realizing these things about hypnosis, the process of hypnotic trance can work for you. You now have to face up to the fact; the responsibility for everything that happens from here on in is yours. I can do my best. I can show you exactly how to do it. Until you learn to approach hypnosis with a proper attitude, the desire for change and the openness and sense of adventure to see where it’s going, you’re going to be holding yourself back. So the question I pose to you right now is what is it you want to do here? Do you want to learn? Do you want to change? No problem, that’s where we’re going. We’re not going to do anything. We’re going to make them feel a certain way and open the opportunity for change. Then see what they do. The surprising thing is not what we can make people do. The surprising thing is what they want to do. The second thing is I started out in this field because I was interested in how the mind worked and I found I really, really enjoyed effecting change in other people’s lives. I love it, Feels Great. But I’ve come to understand that going back and changing something that happened before is not nearly as interesting, not nearly as beneficial as changing ch anging what your gonna do from here on in. In many cases what you had bottled up from before is there for a reason. When you go back and (I knew some guys who fell in love with the idea of hypnotic amnesia), you do go back and make people forget a traumatic experience. Well, everything that followed that experience is predicated in some part on you having had that experience. You cannot anticipate what change they are going to go through when you just start bombing areas of their past. It’s true to a lesser degree when you do reframing, repositioning or implanting false memories. There are therapists out there who are doing this. I can’t believe it. They’ll go way back into the past and then plant something that they think is interesting. It’s like you are the little lab rat that is supposed to integrate this into their lives. It’s absolutely ridiculous. Instead, what I work to do is work on acceptance. Like the holocaust, things happen. 42 Some things really do happen in the world. Accept it. Deal with it. The fact is your past cannot control you. Your past is OVER. It’s gone.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

What you’re doing when you say, “The past is controlling me.”, is choosing to now spend the time and energy to relive that over and over instead of just relaxing and paying attention to what’s right in front of you. Validity is a very slippery concept because *Validity is valid only within the confines of the unconscious mind.* The Power Portal inside of you is asking right now, “What do you want?”

Building a Strong Foundation To Train Your Thinking The following quiz consists of 4 questions and let’s you know where your thinking and flexibility can be improved. When I first took it I failed completely 0 for 4.

The questions are not that difficult.

1.

How do yo you up put ut a gira giraffe ffe int into o a ref refrig rigera erator tor? ?

The correct answer is: open the refrigerator put the giraffe in and close the door. (Simply enough) This question tests whether you are doing simple things in a complicated way.

Ok, if you did not answer correctly the first three questions, this one may be your last chance to show how flexible your thinking skills are.

4. Th Ther ere e is a ri rive ver, r, in inha habi bite ted d by cro croco codi dile les. s. How How do you ma manag nage e to pass it?

Correct Answer: Simply swim through it. All the Crocodiles are attending the  Animal Meeting.

If you missed a few don’t be discouraged or frustrated According to the statistics of Andersen Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals quizzed failed the exam. (On the other hand most preschoolers got it correct. What does this say about most professionals having the brain of a four year old? Not quite yet, maybe in a couple of years.) Creating WISDOM can be an easy process. Let’s talk about it. Wisdom comes from thinking, contemplating, and revelating. In fact not only wisdom but also pain, failure, sadness, joy, happiness and love come from what we think, contemplate, etc.. Cognitive Therapy tells us "The first principle of Cognitive therapy is that all your moods are created by your cognitions or thoughts. Cognition refers to the way you look at things, your perceptions, mental attitudes and beliefs. It includes the way you interpret things, what you say about something or someone to yourself. You feel the way you do right now because of the thoughts you are thinking at this moment." (pp. 11-12)

You feel the way you do rrii ght now because of the the thoughts thoughts you are thinking thi nking at thi this s m om ent. What is thinking? Thinking is simply the process of asking and answering questions of ourselves. It may be hard for some people to see, hear and get a feel for the truth that our feelings are just the product of what we have been thinking and yet it does make one wonder. Someone said the mind is a goal-seeking organism. The metaphor most used is that of a computer, the old garbage in, garbage out concept. It does not matter what you put in your mind, whether positive or negative, right or wrong, useful or less useful. It simply goes in the direction it is sent.  As an example people say, “You know you are what you eat!”  And I say, “That’s way to late, the horses are already out of the gate. Because you think about what you are going to eat before you eat. So you are not what you eat you are what you think.”

You are not what you eat; You are what you think! If thinking is asking and answering question of ourselves, it might be a good idea to ask ourselves better quality questions. I mean better questions than Grampa Vetter use to ask like: If a pig loses its voice, is it disgruntled? If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? 47 One of the biggest challenges to using The Power Portal that people face is the way in which they language themselves. People usually talk about what they don’t want instead of what they do want. For example, someone comes into our office for an evaluation to determine how good a candidate for one of our weight loss programs they would be and we ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

ask, “What do you want?” I would say that 9 out of 10 people respond, “I don’t want to be fat. Or I don’t want to be b e overweight and unhappy.” My response is, with surprise, “Really, I thought everyone wanted to be fat, overweight and unhappy.” The point I want the client to see is that they are not giving any useful information. Not even to them they have not realized not only did they not answer the question, but also als o they set themselves up for failure. fa ilure. How? You may ask. Well, I’m glad you did.

Instead of talking about what you don’t want, focus and talk about what you do want.  Another distinction that would be good to make right about now is that of the conscious and unconscious and the way they work. Because one of the outcomes that our staff has, as a company, is to help people begin to open up their communication between their conscious and unconscious mind in a more useful way. Now none of this can be proven true, and yet it sure operates that way. If we were to take someone who has passed away and attempted to find his or her conscious and unconscious mind, I don’t know if it could be done. We can find the brain, but the mind can’t be found. First let me say you are the combination of both your conscious and unconscious. People think that when you begin to talk about their unconscious, you have to go borrow someone else’s mind. It is all you. We are just using these words as distinctions for clarification purposes. I like to describe it like this. If you were to go to your house after dark and it was almost pitch black and your electricity was out you would get a flashlight. Turn it on. An as you entered the house the flashlight beam would illuminate something. May be a chair, hallway, laundry room or something else depending on which part of the house you entered. 48 What if you were to think of your mind in terms of the flashlight beam representing your conscious mind and everything else in the house representing your unconscious! It all belongs to you.

What you want to do is rewire your house so that if you needed something in the bedroom, bathroom or kitchen the lights would light up kind of like trace lighting and lead you to what you want. That’s what happens as you rewire, clear the blockages, and improve the communication between your conscious and your unconscious mind. This is part of the process of creating wisdom and opening The Power Portal in your life. Secondly, both your conscious and your unconscious have your best interest in mind. That is why you want them to work together. Grampa Vetter talked about the two brothers that wanted to move the cow into the barn. One was at the head and one was at the tail and they were both pulling.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

12% Consciousness

88% Unconscious-Subconscious

Research has shown that 12% of our mind is represented by our conscious mind and 88% of our mind is represented by our unconscious. If you want to find out if what you are reading in this book is true you can look the information up on the Internet. Ask if what you find there is true or not and yet this seems to work as if it were true. 50

The conscious mind is for focusing. The unconscious stores all and I do mean all, your memories, thoughts, actions and deeds. It is the storehouse of everything you have ever seen, heard, felt, tasted or smelled. It stores everything you ever said to yourself or o r others. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

When you put 12% up against 88%, which % is going to win? Your first guess is always the best. Most people think that their conscious mind is the powerhouse of their mind.  And yet the conscious mind is simply the captain of the ship. The unconscious is the engine. If the communication between the bridge, where the captain is, and the engine room, where the engine is, is not clear or blocked or if the wrong orders are being sent or received, both the captain and the engine are frustrated. Have you ever been frustrated with yourself? Do you think it is possible that yourself has been frustrated with you? Well, W ell, Captain, what about it?

Have you ever been frustrated with yourself?  A simple paraphrase of what a fellow named Paul, with with the title of Apostle, wrote a long time ago, “What I want to do, I don’t and what I don’t want to do, I do.”  And he goes on to talk about how bad it was etc. Well he wrote this early in his life’s work. Later in his life he had developed congruency. He had gotten his conscious and unconscious to work together. I like to have people view their unconscious as a younger them and to realize that this younger you takes everything literally. Not only does your unconscious take everything literally, something you may not be aware of is:

51

Your unconscious does not understand negation, very well. Words like not, don’t, shouldn’t etc. are not processed through your unconscious. Consciously we can grasp the ”I don’t wants” and “I don’t needs”, ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

etc. And yet your unconscious bypasses these words as if they have no existence. I quite frequently ask my clients to gather up all their will power and not think of a pink elephant walking down the hallway right outside the door. I do this to demonstrate that to make sense of the sentence, which is the job of the unconscious, they have to make the picture or have the experience in their mind's eye of a pink elephant e lephant walking down the hall. I explain this has to happen before the unconscious can put the red circle with a line through it to signify not allowed. So if the captain sends messages with not and negations in it, the unconscious hears the opposite. For example, if someone says, “I don’t want to be fat, I don’t want to be unhappy, I don’t want to be depressed,” the unconscious hears, “I want to be fat, unhappy and depressed.” And since the unconscious is like a little child and wants approval, it does everything within its power to bring about fat, unhappy and depressed. The unconscious is where your emotions and feelings reside. These are a part of the engine that produces the unwanted behavior and when they are produced, because the unconscious then gets the message of this being unwanted it creates the other negative emotions as signals and warnings.  And because people consciously do not know the parameters of literalness and are unable to process negations of the unconscious, they repeat the cycle and it becomes a spiral downward.

3.Looks for patterns 4.Unable 4. Unable to proces process s negation So as you can see part of the foundation of creating wisdom is understanding that the conscious mind focuses and the unconscious mind produces what the conscious mind focuses on using the parameters of the unconscious. The mind will produce whatever you put into it. In other words the programming you have programmed or allowed to be programmed into you is producing the results you are getting. Therefore, Foundation Stone:

 YOU WORK PERFECTLY! You are getting what you programmed. Instead of thinking, talking or focusing on what you don’t want, think, talk, and focus on what you do want. Foundation Stone:

Outcome, Feedback, Calibrate, Adjust One of the ways we help clients do this is we begin to teach them to take everything as feedback, while calibrating to their outcome and making the adjustments that move them closer to what they want. Now you might be thinking that sounds great but I don’t know if I could do that, right? 53 What if I showed you that you were already doing this and what if I could show you that you were doing it in more than one area? Would that be good enough evidence that you could do this because you already are? OK, let’s say for instance that you are at home, I’ll be you for this example, and you were sitting on the couch or in a chair in the living room.  And while sitting in the chair you’re thirsty and yet you don’t know what you are thirsty for, a soda, a glass of water or a cup of Java.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Nothing! There is nothing to get feedback about because you haven’t decided what you want. You have yet to choose an outcome. OK, most people would say you have yet to choose a goal.  An outcome can be a goal and yet a goal is not an outcome. And you have to have an outcome to be successful. A goal is something that people set and hope they can reach. An outcome presupposes that if you take these steps you will get these results.  Anyway, all of a sudden you decide you want a glass of water. What happens next? Do you say to yourself, “Ok, I have to move these muscles that move my arm forward? I need to move these muscles that t hat move my other arm forward.” Then do you say to yourself, “I have to lean forward. I have to shift my weight over my feet and transfer the weight from my behind forward.” I’m sure you then consciously get your balance just right as you give yourself directions to turn right or left as you begin to maneuver toward the kitchen. Where you will get a glass and maybe fill it with ice and then water. No, you don’t consciously think about any of that. You decide on what your outcome is to be, a glass of water and everything that needs to take place does and it does unconsciously, so that you wind up with a glass of water in your hand. Now, on the way to getting your glass of water, there happens to be a box right in the path on the way to the kitchen. Do I or would you walk up to the box and begin to think and say to yourself, “I don’t know who you think you are? Who said you deserved a glass of water? You’re stupid for thinking you could get a glass of water. Other people can get water but not n ot you.” Of course you don’t you simply walk around the box or move the box or holler at someone to pick up the box. You naturally don’t even give it a second thought, because your outcome is a glass of water, not the box. 54 You naturally take the box as feedback as you calibrate to what you want, the water and you make the adjustments that move you closer to your goal, by moving around the box. This way you continue to reach your goal that has become an outcome. Next as you continue to get a glass of water you have to go by the kitchen table and wouldn’t you know it, right in front of you in your path to getting your glass of water is one of the kitchen table chairs filled with a toolbox that needs to be put up. I’m sure you stop and say to yourself. “Self, you sure are stupid and lazy. Why on earth did you ever think you deserved to have a glass of water? It’s too hard ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

and it’s to far. And besides if I were supposed to have a glass of water this chair would not be in the way. This is proof I’m not suppose to get what I want, even though it is healthy and good for me. This is proof. I might as well give up.” This seems foolish and yet where else in your life have you talked to yourself in  just this way? Instead of looking at what is in the way, in this instance the chair, as feedback, while calibrating to your outcome and making the adjustments you move around the chair to what it is you really want. See I told you, you already do this and you do it unconsciously. Simple isn’t it. You say yeah but that’s a glass of water. Foundation Stone:

  here is no such thing as failure, only feedback.  All right, have you ever swum in a swimming pool? Well I don’t know about you, but when I swim my outcome is to get to the other side as easily as possible. I put my head down in the water and start sta rt to swim. After a while, normally a stroke or two, I have to lift my head to calibrate where I am going.  And you know what, for some reason the side that is my destination has moved on me. So I calibrate the new distance and angle and down my head goes as I take another stroke or two. I keep swimming and I run into the lane rope. You know that thing that let’s you know you’ve swum to far of course.

55 Now people swim have thought in the stop past,and theydrown. would They give up. They ifwould say it is the too way hard,they it’s too far. They would would never make it to the other side. Have you ever driven a car and had to stop at a stoplight or stop sign. Did you ever have to change lanes to pass someone? Did you ever have to take a detour and still get to your destination, your outcome?  All you did while swimming or driving is have an outcome and take everything as feedback, while calibrating to your outcome and easily making the adjustments that move you closer to what you want. Have you ever taken a trip in an airplane? Did you know you were off course 90% of the time? Because the way an airplane’s piloting system works, it is set up to have an outcome called a destination. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

It sends out a signal to the destination and gets the information back. It takes the information as feedback. It then calibrates to its destination and makes the adjustments necessary to move it closer to its outcome. Then it repeats this process until it lands safely and usually on time. Can you imagine an airplane taking on the thinking processes most people use when facing a challenge called a problem? After about the third course adjustment the plane would start to think:

I don’t know what’s going on. 56 I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I just can’t stay on course. Every time I get information back I have to adjust my course. Maybe a little but it is still an adjustment. wonder what he theever pilotgot must be thinking. He And mustallbethose thinking I’m a bad plane. I Ibet he’s sorry in my pilot’s seat. passengers, I’d never ride on a plane that can’t even stay on course. I might as well give up. If an airplane had thoughts like a lot of people have had in the past, it would simply crash. But instead it takes everything as feedback, while calibrating to its destination as it makes all the necessary adjustments that move it closer to its outcome. Every human being does the same thing when we walk across a room. Instead of walking in a straight line, which would require one foot exactly in front of the other, we simply have an outcome. Then we calibrate each and every step and adjust our balance and steps from side sid e to side, until we get across the room. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

In other words we naturally forget about what we don’t want and focus on what we do want. We don’t get “Pollyannaish.” We W e are aware of what is going on around us and we do take it into account in our adjustments. Foundation Stone:

Forget about what you don’t want and Focus on what you do. Or as one of my teachers from the acknowledgements page would say, “The more you FOCUS ON WHAT YOU WANT , the more you forget about what you don’t want. By simply remembering to forget what you don’t want, causes you to FOCUS ON WHAT YOU WANT and after all, we all want what we want. This is a simple way to help the process of taking everything as feedback, while calibrating to your outcome, by making the adjustments that move you closer to what you want. In this instance the word 'everything' includes every word, every thought, every deed and action, internally as well as externally. You can extend it to what others say and do also. Because no matter what someone else says or does it is just giving you feedback about what is going on inside of them. 57 The difference between a goal and a well-formed outcome is a goal is something you may hope for and that you don’t have control over and a wellformed outcome let’s you know that if you take these steps you will get these results. A well-formed outcome puts you in control of your destiny. Just the other day a good example came up of someone who knew the language and yet had gotten caught up in the content of the situation and was getting frustrated.  A friend of mine had gotten herself in a situation where she had allowed her credit to be used by someone who was not being responsible and taking care of the debt. She was agonizing over all the different consequences of: if she did this, they would do that, or if she did that, they would do this and on and a nd on and on. And none of them satisfying her. So, I asked her, “What is your outcome?” ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

She said, “I want them to give me the money for it because I don’t need another computer.” My response to her was that statement is a fake outcome because it isn’t well formed. It wasn’t all within her control. So it really was more of a goal. I asked her to go back through the well-formed outcome sheet shee t and it would feel better. On the following pages, in which you can write in this book, are some exercises that you will want to fill out for yourself. As you do these exercises you will get clarity in way that will sound just right which causes you to feel better about what you want and yourself. We have given an example of an outcome we use with clients on the next page.

In the next chapter we will talk about Circuit Breakers and how to reset your circuits so that you have a chance to make all this work for you…

65 Chapter 5

Resetting Your Circuit Breakers That reminds me of another story of Hiney the mule. Remember the ole’ man, well he bought Hiney from f rom a farmer who owned the old mule before and he was the one who named him Hiney. One day Hiney fell into the farmer's well. The farmer heard Hiney 'braying'-or whatever mules do when they fall into wells.  After carefully assessing the situation, the farmer sympathized with the mule, but decided that neither his mule, Hiney, nor the well was worth the trouble of saving. Instead, he called his neighbors together and told them what had happened ...and enlisted them to help haul dirt to bury his old ass in the well and put him out of his misery. Initially, Hiney was hysterical! But as the farmer and his neighbors continued shoveling and the dirt hit his back...a thought struck ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Hiney. It suddenly dawned on him that every time a shovel load of dirt landed on his back...HE SHOULD …SHAKE IT OFF AND STEP UP! This he did, blow after blow. "Shake it off and step up...shake it off and step up...shake it off and step up!" He thought …repeat this to encourage yourself. SHAKE IT OFF AND STEP UP. No matter how painful the blows or distressing the situation seemed the old mule fought SHAKE IT OFF AND"panic" STEP and UP! just kept right on with the attitude and action of You're right! It wasn't long before the old mule, battered and exhausted, STEPPED TRIUMPHANTLY TRIUMPHANTLY OVER THE WALL W ALL OF THAT WELL! What seemed like it would bury him, actually blessed him...all because of the manner in which he handled his adversity.

SHAKE IT OFF AND STEP UP! 66 THAT'S LIFE! If we face our problems and respond to them positively, and refuse to give in to panic, bitterness, or self-pity...THE ADVERSITIES THAT COME ALONG TO BURY US USUALLY HAVE WITHIN W ITHIN THEM THE POTENTIAL TO BENEFIT AND BLESS US!  And of course everyone knows the moral of this story, when you look at everything optimistically or as an opportunity you will wind up saving your Hiney. My Grampa used to talk about one of the ways to look at everything that happens to you. He called it a way to …have perfect abundance, perfect prosperity and perfect success. He said …you accept everything that happens, even if it seems wrong or negative, as the exact thing you need to …learn quickly …how to …utilize everything to your benefit. Resistance leaves when you accept. And as most of the martial arts will teach you it is easier to re-direct and use something when you are in harmony with it, when you are in agreement with it, when you’re going in the same direction. It is a lot harder to change something when you are against it.

So …accept everything with agreement as you redirect it by reframing to your outcome. Thereby increasing your ability to …utilize everything to your benefit. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

He also said if …you accept responsibility to everything that happens to you, as you …realize that no-one does anything to you, that no one makes you feel a certain way, that there is no such thing as insult or criticism, …be thankful, others are only giving you information and feedback about what’s going on inside ofeach them, what they are thinking, saying on or doing. When realize, person is responsible for feeling, what happens the inside of you themselves.  

Then you will SHAKE IT OFF AND STEP UP. You may be wondering how do I do that? Well that’s the purpose of this chapter. The purpose of this chapter is to teach you how to shake it off and step up, a simple process.   down at 67my word processor and begin to  As I sat type about this amazing little tool, I’m reminded of what I tell others when I teach them this. It will take me longer to explain the theory behind this and how to do it, than to do the process.  And yet when we get done with this part of the process you will will feel a freedom and a power that you haven’t felt before. Some people stop here and yet it is  just a part of the process of training your thinking using The Power Portal. Hopefully you are aware of what an EKG and/or an EEG machine m achine do. They measure the electricity in the body/mind. Up until recently, western medicine only used the electricity of the body to determine if we were still living or if the electricity in the body had stopped, called flat-line, someone had died. Imagine we spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on machines that measured the electricity of the body and the fact that it was moving through the system and yet we only used it to determine if the patient was alive or dead. d ead. Recently we have started considering actually working with the electrical energy system of the body. Eastern medicine has worked with the electrical energy system for centuries. I guess one of the drawbacks for us in the west was when we cut someone open we can’t actually see the electrical wiring of the body. In the same way when we cut someone open we can find their brain and yet we can’t find their mind, but we accept the fact that most of us have a mind. Maybe ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

not the right mind, but a mind nonetheless. We now have machines that can measure and show this wiring called meridians by eastern medicine. Most people have heard of acupuncture or acupressure and yet this Circuit Breaking technique called EFT, Emotional Freedom Technologies, has added a new twist. Let in meyour explain it like this, when youyou are do at home and you realize that out bathroom, the first thing is change the light bulb. If the light is doesn’t come on you go out to the circuit breaker box and flip the breaker labelled bathroom. If none of the breakers have labels you proceed to flip all the breakers because you understand that by resetting all of them you will get the bathroom also. Electrically speaking some place in your wiring the current has gone to ground, the current has taken a less than useful route and has grounded out. By resetting the circuit you are resetting the path of the current in the most useful direction to produce the end results, light. 68 It’s kind of like taking your TV to the TV repair shop and the person tells you that they could diagnosis the problem for $60 and then it could cost up to another $300 to fix the particular problem and yet for $75 they could overhaul the TV and it would be as it were brand new. Our purpose here is not to make you an electrician having to learn to test your energy system to find exactly where the disturbance is, our desire is to show you a number of circuit breakers and have you reset them. Kind of like a system overhaul. What’s it like when you have one of those days as you're watching TV, you see something that does affect You have emotional feeling or negative about it. Younot can see you. the same thing no another day and get positive so emotional about what you are hearing that it clouds the rest of your day and your activities. a ctivities. One of the basic tenants of Cognitive Therapy is the way you feel right now is based on the thoughts you are thinking right now. The basic belief we’re going to use, not that it is true or anything, it just seems to work as if it is true:

Anything (emotion/pain) that seems to be preventing you from moving in the direction directio n of what you w want ant is due ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

to a disturbance in your electrical energy system. In other words anything that you feel is preventing, stopping, slowing you down or holding you back from easily moving in the direction of your well-formed outcome is due to a disturbance in your energy system. Once you have been able to neutralize this emotion/pain by correcting the system, you can then build in more useful beliefs, which we will be discussing in later chapters. Being able to go neutral is one of the puzzle pieces of being able ab le to create wisdom.

Now we have explained the first part of the process. After this next half is explained, I want you to give it a go for yourself. In eastern medicine when they do acupuncture they often have to repeat the process because the electrical energy system continues having to be reset. With this process sometimes it is necessary to repeat the process but not as much or as often. The reason for that is this part of the process called the psychological reverse. You see in western medicine we have usually treated the body as separate from the mind. And yet science has come to the conclusion that we can’t really separate the mind from the body.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

The mind-body connection is very useful when working on resetting your circuits. Since Cognitive Therapy tells us the way we feel is dependent upon the thoughts we are thinking at this time. The negative thoughts send the energy through our electrical system and disrupt the system.

How do we disrupt this disrupt? It’s like72 we mentioned before, one day something on TV will upset us and on another no disruption at all around the same thing. Consider each thought a different radio station and we are tuning it in clearer, by getting rid of the static. The psychological reverse has two parts two it. One part is another circuit breaker point. It is located on the side of either hand, where you would deliver a karate chop, if you were Bruce Lee or Chuck Norris. The fleshy meaty part of the side of the hand is where it is located. You will tap this with your three fingers tapping as you say the psychological reverse three timesReverse). and then you tap each circuit saying a phrase or part of the PR (Psychological 1st find a negative emotion, statement, memory or feeling that is resisting you or holding you back from achieving what you really want and give it a number from 0 (no emotional content) to 10 (high emotional content). Now let’s diagram the PR. The first line is: Even though I ___________________________________. The second line is: ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

I love and accept myself. The blank is the negative emotion or statement or memory or feeling that is holding you back. The thing that if you had control over you would easily move in the direction of what you want. It can be anything.  After you have completed the process of resetting these circuit breakers, try and access the emotional content and moved notice how fartodown it has toward (no emotional content). If it hasn’t down 0 repeat themoved process until 0 it does. If it doesn’t work completely (they say maybe 5 to 10% of the time) there may be some aspect of things that need to be addressed. Continue the process at different times and different locations and trust your intuition on what to fill in the blank with. For a more in-depth discussion of how to correct the process if you’re not getting the results of lowering the emotional content check out the website mentioned earlier. If you have to, you can say (3x) “I love and accept myself even though  ___________”, as you’re tapping on the circuit breaker at the karate chop point 73 on your hand. You can use combinations such aslove “Even though  ______, I deeply accept anddifferent appreciate myself or deeply accept and appreciate myself.” Since over 97% of the population is not satisfied with their body shape we will use weight and smoking as some examples. Let’s use the simple statement “I’m over-weight.” To start: Determine on a scale of 0 (no emotional content) to 10 (high emotional content) what number you would assign to the challenge of being overweight.  And then: While tapping the circuit breaker at the karate k arate chop point say: “Even though I’m overweight, I love and accept myself.” “Even though I’m overweight, I love and accept myself.” “Even though I’m overweight, I love and accept myself.” Then while tapping 5 to 7 times on each circuit breaker say the word “overweight” or “I overweight”.

Circuit Breaker #4-overweight Circuit Breaker #5-overweight Circuit Breaker #6-overweight Circuit Breaker #7-overweight Now go back and reassess where the emotional content around being overweight is. If it hasn’t gone away or down to 0 do the process again.

 You can do this process with anything. You can use it for weight loss, smoking, any fears, any phobias, and any negative experiences. There are reports of tremendous results with rape, even physical pain such as back, leg, or shoulder and neck pain being eliminated by this process.

74 Gary Craig the developer of EFT, which we are calling Circuit Breaking said in an email that this has been a reliable tool for temporarily eliminating the immediate craving for a given substance or behavior. Seasoned practitioners have done this many times for everything from cigarettes and alcohol to fingernail biting. In my experience, addictions that are primarily physical can be broken quite readily with EFT. The emotional ones take more time, care and skill because the real problem isn't a simple physical craving. It is the need to tranquilize some strong unresolved emotions and UNTIL those emotions are resolved the addict will continue with their existing addiction OR switch to another one. I've had my share of people who permanently no longer want their coffee, chocolate or alcohol after one or two rounds of Circuit Breaking. I've also had my share of people with seemingly endless emotional issues that truly NEED their addictive substance/behavior until emotional clearing of their negative  jungle has occurred. It is their best solution to the problem until the causes can be eliminated. This can take time, of course. Some people seemingly get completely get over their addiction rapidly while others have increased craving for something else. Understanding the interplay of all this will aid you in the "art of delivery." Hugs, Gary  And since this information is being put together for our patients and clients the majority of whom are grappling with weight or smoking, here are some additional statements to fill in the blank statements with. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

People have tapped for everything from chips, to cigarettes, to Milano cookies, StarBucks peanut butter cookies, sugar, gum, wine, and vodka. You can do it on anything. The following is from a Dr. Carol Cook’s emails to Gary on the subject. THE PRESENT The first section targets the current and concrete behavior or symptom that the client reports is the problem. Obviously there are many layers under the symptom, but to attack these first is an easier way to get started. Also, some of the layers begin to emerge when you target eating behavior. The primary phrases that clients give to me about their "addiction" or weight problem are as follows: 75 "Even though I'm a food addict, I deeply and completely accept myself." "Even though I'm obsessed with food..." "Even though I'm a sugar addict..." "Even though I crave sweets at night..." "Even though I have an enormous appetite..." (We’ll get to the underlying cause of this "appetite" later.) " "Even though I'm a closet eater..." "Even though I binge at night..." I ask the client to tap for themselves three times a day for whichever of the above phrases speak to them and their problem. I ask them to do it in the early morning and late evening when they are not in the middle of a struggle to NOT eat. When someone waits until they have a craving, they are less likely to complete the process, although they do it then as well. Two more interesting phrases emerged with some clients that really seemed to help. "Even though I have an urge to eat whenever I SMELL food..." "Even though I have a craving whenever I SEE food..." These are very powerful anchors...remember, advertising works. Then I move on to the underlying feelings and anxieties that drive the behavior. Classic phrases that hit home with clients are as follows: "Even though I eat when I'm bored..." "Even though I eat when I'm angry..." "Even though I eat when I'm lonely..." "Even though I overeat to hurt myself... "Even though I eat to avoid my feelings..." ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

"Even though I use food to soothe myself..." "Even though I overeat to hide myself..." "Even though I binge because I think I'm worthless..." "Even though I overeat because I don't love myself..." Two other key points that I find essential are regarding guilt and self-hatred. Thesetoare notthe motivating factors someone who wants to lose weight, so help them drop guilt about their for eating disorder. "Even though I hate myself for overeating..." "Even though I feel guilty when I overeat..." o vereat..." "Even though I feel guilty about being overweight..." This leads me to the second part: 76 THE PAST In this part of the treatment, I address basic self-esteem issues and incidents. I ask client to write nameOften threethese of theincidents worst incidents have hurt theirthe self-esteem and down tap fororthem. revolve that around shame of their body, or their early eating habits. I ask which is the loudest memory? The stickiest? The worst? I also ask them to picture the first times they discovered food as a pacifier and address the underlying feelings that were going on at the time. I also ask them about their family's attitude around food, what the atmosphere was around the dinner table at home etc. This often brings up new material...which I help them tap for  "Even though I'm anxious when I sit down to eat.." "Even though I associate food with fighting..." "Even though I associate food with my mother's love..." "Even though I feel unsafe without food..." "Even though I eat to feel better... I ask the client to remember the sharpest criticism they heard around their body image, peer problems, etc...I have them tap for shame or whatever the strongest feelings are. This section can uncover upsetting times that may need more work. Go slowly and respectfully and you will make tremendous headway.

1. "Picture yourself not being able to eat sweets in the evening...How do you feel?" They often say anxious, angry, lonely lone ly or irritable. We tap for the response. 2. "Picture yourself as thin as you would like. What happens? How do you feel?" This often brings up so many answers. Sometimes they say they don't deserve it, or they feel anxious, or they don't feel safe anymore without their shield, etc...Sometimes they say they don't want other people to be envious of them, or to comment on their body or appearance. We tap for whatever fears and feelings arise. 3. "Picture yourself addressing the underlying feelings that trigger the eating behavior. How do you feel?" They often feel anxious or just "resistant" to doing it and admit that they would rather suffer with the eating and weight problems. 77 Tapping might go something like this..."Even though I'm afraid to face my childhood depression,..." or "Even though I'm afraid to deal with the rage at my father..." Then I address specific sabotaging behaviors and ask them what their theories are about why they might sabotage their progress. I ask them to say the following statements out loud and tap for whichever ones cause a reaction. "It's not safe for me to lose weight." "It's not safe for others if I lose weight." "I don't feel supported by my family members..." (I have often heard about clients who are offered chocolate cake just as they are getting going in their weight loss efforts) "I don't deserve to be happy with my body." I also ask them to say out loud "I weigh 125 lbs" (or whatever the goal weight is) and see what emotions come up. As in some of the sports performance phrases, I have them tap for: "Even though I have a block to weighing less than 140 lbs..." or  "Even though I sabotage myself whenever I weigh less than 130 lbs..." I also ask them to tap for  "Even if I never get over this eating e ating disorder..." and "Even if I never lose weight..." These two seem to help the inevitable feelings of desperation that most people with binge eating habits struggle with. The clients often say they don't want to say these phrases, because it's not true. But I urge them to say them anyway.

81 Chapter 6

How the Mind Works

 

"Retreat to the future" Richard Bandler

THE MIDAS TOUCH – the next generation One day Queen Midas was sitting by the river Pactolus, looking at the shimmering deposits of gold that had been placed there when her father King Midas had ask the Dionysus to remove the gift he had given him for showing respect to god Silenus the Saytr, The god’s right-hand man/goat (well that is what a Saytr is, half man and a nd half goat). You see King Midas had shown respect to Silenus the Saytr and his master, the god Dionysus had given King Midas a gift any gift he wanted because of his kindness. King Midas had wished for the gift to turn any thing to gold with a touch because, after all, he was a King and a King is concerned with keeping his country strong and of course everyone knows that money creates economic strength and economic strength pays for most other strengths that a kingdom would need to… stay strong. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

 And King Midas realized that gold is the most valuable form of money so he asked for the gift so that anything he touched would turn to gold. After he touched his daughter he changed his mind. For years after her father had turned her into gold and Dionysus had restored her, Queen Midas remembered how sorry King Midas had been for not thinking and how happy he was to have her alive and well again. She also remembered how much father had her to always considersaid, the consequences of her actions andher allow them to encouraged guide her. He had 82

"Now that's true thinking." She had always appreciated that because she had had no rules to live by then,  just consequences and that is the way she "ruled" the kingdom. No rules, just consequences for actions. The people were happier because they got to take responsibility for their actions. The people thought that Queen Midas was a wise ruler and showed lots of wisdom. She became famous for saying, “Little

rules, much love; much rules, little love because love is the foundation of freedom”  A few interesting things happened when people… start to think… in this new way. Excuses seemed to disappear because people started to… accept outcomes as they happen. Which taught them how to… consider the consequences better. There a lot less friction because they consider what iswas most useful… for theamong personpeople they were coming in began contactto… with, not what they thought the other needed. Parents and children, owners and slaves, bosses and employees, adults to adults and children to children, together, everyone began to… work more smoothly.  Anyway Queen Midas was sitting there, staring as if in a dream at the glimmering stream and along came Dionysus. They got into a conversation, for Queen Midas had a special place in the god’s heart. She asked Dionysus, "What did my father really want and why didn't you give it to him?"

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Dionysus answered, "Queen Midas, my dear, you know the answer to both questions." Queen Midas thought for a moment and replied, "My father wanted to keep our kingdom strong and I remember him saying, "If only everyone and everything would… display your highest constantly… we would… be strong… for years to come." 82 So what my father wanted to do was to… bring out the gold… or most valuable part of each person for the good of the kingdom. "And the reason you didn't give it to him is because he didn't ask the right question. Yes?” Dionysus said, "Would you like the same opportunity as your father?" Queen Midas answered immediately because she had thought about this long and hard for quite a while. "YES!" She replied emphatically. “YES!” "Ok" said Dionysus, "Make your request." Queen Midas' request was to have the

Midas Touch Contextualized ...so that in whatever context she met, it would bring out the best, most valuable, most useful (gold) results for that particular person, place or thing. And that she would have a Midas touch in regards to her own personal health, wealth, wisdom and happiness.  And that it would be contextualized over all areas spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically, financially, socially, interpersonally, personally and materially. Dionysus said, "So be it, but you still have not truly answered the question of why I didn't give what your father really wanted. It is the reason you… have it now." Queen Midas, now with a new Contextualized Midas Touch vibrating through her, asked Dionysus to enlighten her. Dionysus informed her that all the gifts the gods gave to people were already inside of them waiting to be brought out. And that if Queen Midas thought about it she would… see the reality of this. "Queen Midas, you have always had this new Contextualized Midas Touch inside you. It is… now… time to… release it." Dionysus said. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

That reminds me of what Einstein said, “We are four dimensional creatures living in a three dimensional world, there is no reason we shouldn’t be able to remember the future.” And like I heard Richard Bandler once say, "what we need to do is 'Retreat to the Future'!”  After growing up in the orphanage I went to college and seminary. seminary. Then I went to work. I pastured a church and practiced psychology. I took sales jobs and became a sales manager. I had very few successes in my opinion but enough for others to think I was good Iatbegan what to I did yet because I came from a results-oriented background, getand frustrated. You see, I thought people were broke and they needed to be fixed. And I wasn’t doing a good job of fixing them either in church or in private practice. Then I heard about something with a real strange name, Neuro-Linguistics Programming, NLP for short and hypnosis. It is the study of “how” we as people do things. NLP and its children, DHE, Design Human Engineering and HPE, Human Performance Engineering, and Neuro-Semantics, start with the belief that people work perfectly. In other words People are not broken, so they don’t need to be fixed. I found a key, a foundation stone.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

It was the key so I stopped being a “Psycho-TheRapist” as Bandler calls it.

84 NLP, DHE, HPE and Neuro-Semantics are not as concerned with the “why” or “what” of something, in other words, the content. They are more focused on “how” the process works. The Neuro stands for the neurology of the brain. Neurology is the electricity in the brain, which moves us into the realm of the mind, the invisible part of the brain. Linguistics means the way we language (talk to) ourselves internally. And Programming is the way we use our linguistics to program ourselves. So this whole concept of creating wisdom is about how we are programmed by the way we communicate to ourselves, internally and externally. Does this thought, belief, emotion, state, or feeling, attitude, etc. serve (you) me well? Does it enhance (your) my life, bring out (your) my best, put (you) me in a resourceful state, and empower (you) me in reaching (your) my goals? Will it enable (you) me to act in a way true to (your) my values? Or will it limit (you) me, reduce (your) my effectiveness, and put (you) me at odds with (your) my own highest values and beliefs? Did you know? 1) Ev Ever ery y stat statem emen ent, t, obj objec ectio tion n or opini opinion on h has as w with ithin in iitt it its s ow own n answer. Every one of these have within it its own solution. 2) Every statement, objection or opinion really only involves feedback and information about what the speaker is thinking, feeling, saying or doing, never failure, insult or criticism on anyone’s part. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 A) Remaining emotionally neutral when receiving undesired responses gives one more control. Personalizing nothing in the process of communication allows one to honor oneself and another. B) Apart from our (thoughts of) association or connection, nothing means anything. External events occur, but only have meaning(s) to us when we apply meaning(s) to them. Meaning cannot exist apartmeaning(s). from a meaning-maker. Each person constructs h is or her own This does not make it actuality (true reality), only their reality. 3.

I love hamburgers and I love cars has two different meanings. Just as I love you and I love

85 my grandparents, have two different meanings also. Meaning is constructed in our minds. (2B)  A) Meaning can only exist in some frame-of- reference (context) B) The frame (context) controls the meaning. Change FrameChange meaning. C) The one who creates the frame controls the experience of meaning. D) There can easily be contexts inside of contexts. Multiple frames at once. E) “Real” meanings (our reality, the meaning we make for ourselves) may not serve us well. 5. It is easy Language, to detect and recognize meaning experiences. words, objections, opinionsand frames in human and statements are only constructs that one can recognize and utilize. 6. One can know how meanings work and how conceptual reality works for people. Meaning is an internal job. It is internal to the meaning-maker. It is an association or linking of external things of the world (Sights, Sounds, Events, and Stimuli) with internal ideas inside the head of the meaning-maker, which determines the state of mind the meaning-maker, is in at a given time. With awareness of the meaning-making process one can display control over it.

7. Just because someone says something does not make it real. It is only a representation of what is going on inside of them, not what the truth really is. 8. Jumping logical levels is the easiest thing to do. The most influence comes from being the most flexible in moving between and jumping logical levels. How we represent things programs our mind and body and installs an internal mental map about the world (Beliefs). Emotions are produced by ideas, attitudes, thoughts and beliefs and can be dramatically changed by modifying the thinking process that creates them. (If you are in pain/discomfort because of an external situation, it’s not the situation sit uation that disturbs you, it’s your judgment.) Words, on the one hand, are totally powerless to directly effect and change external reality. On the other hand, they have almost complete power to create, alter, change, destroy and invent internal reality.

86 Meaning exists only in the mind. It is exclusive to the mind. Meaning comes about as a form of evaluation and appraisal. Meaning is created by linking/associating different stimuli (external) with some response (internal). This way the external stimulus means/equals/leads to that response in our nervous system. Meaning is a step up on the logical ladder about stimuli/information. Information is external and meaning is internal. Information is stimuli and meaning is information about information or judgment about information or evaluation of information. Simple to Complex Reframing

it means this. But This. But Y. But this higher Y. But this context (higher Frame)

Beliefs and ideas have consequences. One’s reality is not about what is real, but our thoughts, our perceptions about what is real. Since we construct all of our "thoughts" and internal movies, we have the power to change them at will. We can also refine them, tune them up, add all kinds of resources to them. Meaning comes about by connecting things up. We create meaning by connecting either an external event or remembered external event up with our ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

internal thought, representation, or experience (which is another created meaning). Meanings about meanings create beliefs and we create “beliefs” so that we can make sense out of the world. We use them to shift our attention away from the chaotic overload of information, deleting much of the information, to a frame of reference that is organized. When information is deleted what is left is generalized to a 'belief', which the very natureand of deleting generalizing it, create is distorted. Beliefs areby created, learned installedand frames-ofreferences.

87

“Things” only exist as certain events in the external world. Apart from consciousness, they have no meaning. Nothing has meaning. Without consciousness to connect things to an internal reference, there is no meaning. When people feel resourceful, empowered and at their best, they will bring out their best. Sometimes the beliefs that people hold can limit them from their resourcefulness, power and their best, which bring out their worst. Because our beliefs, ideas, thoughts, words, constructs and precepts are formed from deletions, generalizations and distortions, by their very nature they are limited and faulty constructions that may be useful in some contexts and less useful in others. Bandler said, “Beliefs are commands to the nervous system”. How do we make a belief? Hall & Bodenhamer explain it by saying that for something to be a belief it not only has to be a set of representations about something (thoughts), but also we must have a confirmation and validation of those representations. The way a belief is created is by taking a particular thought (set of ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

representations) and adding a convincing and powerful YES to it. The YES comes from a Meta-Level or higher logical level or Frame. A belief is a thought with a frame already around it. It’s a thought we frame as valid, real or true. Beliefs are like sculpting a statue—what matters is not only what remains in view, but also what has been whittled away. Which reminds me of the young farm boy who was looking down in the gully at the sweating man who “Why was with hammer and He wasso laboring stone. The boy asked, in this hot sun arechisel. you working hard?”on a large Michelangelo replied, “There’s an angel trapped in here and I’m going to free him.”

88

 

Conscious and Unconscious Processes

One cannot always change the world; one can always changes the meanings we attribute to the world. When we change our responses to the world, the ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

world changes for us. Stimuli are what exist and can only exist in the world “out there.” The context or frame we put around the stimuli totally determines the meaning to us or how we experience the stimulus. We do not change the world; we change our meanings that we assign to the world.  As one gives every event at least three different meanings, it not only broadens your worldview, it creates more behavioral flexibility for you. This is the Power Portal at work. If we forget that the true nature of language is symbolic, we confuse external and internal realities. As we become aware that our internal reality is simply a map of external reality and not actuality and that maps delete, distort, and generalize, we can become aware of how we create our own paradigms, beliefs or world-views. This allows us to open up to the choice dimension. 89 You do not have to believe anything, but whatever you do believe becomes your perceived and felt reality. By moving into the choice dimension, no one has to stay stuck in any attitude, perception, viewpoint, meaning, emotion, reality or interpretation. "The first principle of Cognitive therapy is that all your moods are created by your cognition’s or thoughts. Cognition refers to the way you look at things, your perceptions, mental attitudes and beliefs. It includes the way you interpret things, what you say about something or someone to yourself. You feel the way you do right now because of the thoughts you are thinking at this moment." (Pp. 11-12)  Any trauma can be effectively and completely reframed, re-represented, and dealt with so that it does not have to bother those involved in it. What happened or has happened is an event. What a person thinks or continues to think is a separate event and can be modified. It does make a difference what you think about. How you represent those thoughts internally also makes a difference. And so do the meanings that you give to those representations— and the frames (contexts) that you set. When you understand this— you have the key to emotional liberation, to mental and emotional sanity, and as Michael Hall says, “The ability to exercise executive choice and control over your own life. Then you can 'drive your own bus'. The following are some useful questions to ask yourself and after that will discuss how a belief is created.

Questions: Does this thought, belief, emotion, state, or feeling, etc. serve (you) me well? ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Does it enhance (your) my life, bring out (your) my best, put (you) me in a resourceful state, and empower (you) me in reaching (your) my goals? Will it enable (you) me to act in a way true to (your) my values? Or will it limit (you) me, reduce (your) my effectiveness, and put (you) me at odds with (your) my own highest values and beliefs? How can I view this event as valuable? What was the positive intent for them? In what context would this behavior be useful? In what contexts would I use this behavior?

90

Problems What does this mean to you? How does this create a problem for you? What makes it so? How much of a problem does this create? What other meanings do you give to this? Since means always exist in a frame (context): What frame of reference does this idea exist within? What frame is this person using? What frame has to be present for this statement to make sense? Do you know the frame out of which you operate? Does it serve you well? Or do you want to set different frame?

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

First let me ask you what’s the difference between a thought and a belief? What do you think? And then what makes a thought t hought into a belief?  As has been stated somewhere in this book that all thinking is, is asking and answering questions within your own mind. I can think it is a nice day. I may even comment on it internally or externally and yet it is still not a belief until I do some other things to the thought, albeit, I can do them unconsciously and quickly. When I see what I consider an attractive person, I first have the internal thought that he/she is attractive. Then because of my filters, which include depending upon the situation, I may tell myself that, “They find me attractive.” 91  As you were considering what is the difference between a thought and a belief, think of two or three thoughts and two or three beliefs that you have and consider what’s the difference in the way you perceive the two? Why is one a thought and one a belief?  As you are considering one of the beliefs, ask yourself “Why do I believe this?” You will begin to come up with reasons for why and they will be in the form of “this causes that” or “this equals that”. Now you may be wondering what makes a belief solid and powerful? As we pull the process apart and look at it, we find that repetition of a thought has something to do with it. Also consistency over time must be there. When you picture the belief, it has attractiveness about it. Desirability is probable a better word. The aspects of the picture can include the color or black and white, size, shape, distance and other aspects that make the picture desirable. That voice inside your head, you know that voice of authority, hear that voice repeating the belief and loop that statement over and over. Then create a few “this causes that” or “this equals that” statements about the belief.

Creating a solid belief involves:

1) Authoritative voice in your head speaking the belief. 2) Repetition 3) Looping around the thought 4) Desirability – Really want the belief. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

5) Consistency – Imagine having the belief over time, maybe a year or two or even longer. 6) “This causes that” or “this equals that” statements

Change a Belief  The reason this works is because this is exactly what your mind does unconsciously to create beliefs in the first place. This is great because we don’t have to deal with the content of what and why, but we deal with the process of 'how'. The structure of how we create beliefs and hold them in place. 96 Once you learn how you do this it will only take 10 to 15 minutes at first to change a belief and after you get comfortable with doing it, you can change a lot of limiting beliefs quickly within a few minutes. Real quickly let’s deal with those people that say it’s hard for me to visualize. If you can’t visualize, get a mental picture. If you can’t picture, pretend. Pretend that you could see or get a sense of what it would be like. I’m sure you can picture, see, visualize, or pretend, what your living room looks like. Right? Shake your head up and down. Now what would your living room look like if all the furniture was moved over to one side of tthe he room?  As you’re reading this book and I ask you what does the inside of your car look like, something comes to your mind. What ever it is that lets you know what the inside of your car looks like and what your living room would look like with all the furniture moved over to one side, we will call that a picture. One Belief that you may want to change is that “I can’t change my beliefs or beliefs are hard to change.” You may want to change that to “beliefs are easy to change or beliefs are tools, like cloths that you use or put on depending upon the context or situation.”

The Structure of How we Create Beliefs and

Hold them in Place Pick a belief that you have and yet you don’t like having that belief. Something that holds you back, something that keeps you from getting what you want. It could be something about the way you communicate to yourself or others, anything. Let’s pull it apart and look at the different parts to it. The (sight, sound, feeling) see, hear, feel, smell and taste of it. Step out of the belief as if you could see yourself having the belief.

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

 As you look at the experience of you believing the belief, the voice of authority that comes with that belief, where is it inside your head? What direction does it come from?

97

The picture associated with that belief, if you had a mental theater in your mind, where on the screen would the picture be top, middle, or bottom? Would it be upper left, upper center, or upper right? Or would it be middle or bottom, left, center or right? What is the color make up of that picture or movie? What’s the distance and brightness? How long have you believed this limiting belief? Get the “this means that” or the “this equals that” by asking, “Why do you believe that?” What are the reasons up until now that you have given yourself for this belief to seem true for you? Now stop, before we go any further and decide what you would like to be true about you instead of the limiting belief above that we are about to change. What would you like to believe about yourself instead of the old belief?  All right now, go back to the old belief and think of the funnies cartoon character you can think of saying the belief in the place of your voice of authority. Imagine the cartoon character repeating that old belief over and over in a loop. Imagine instead of your voice of authority saying the old belief for the last two years that you heard the funny voice saying it for that length of time. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Take all of the desire out of the picture, by changing the distance, color, shape and size. Send the picture further away; let the picture or movie get fuzzy looking, turn the brightness down. Let the color drain out of it. Say the “this or that” statements or the “this equals that" statements and hear them in that funny voice. By now the old belief will really seem like what it truly is now, an old belief. Not true, just an old thought that you learned from. 98 Now let’s replace the old limiting belief with the new empowering belief you came up with earlier. Take the new belief that will soon become a solid powerful belief and start by having your voice of authority repeating the belief about you inside your head.  And at the same time develop a compelling “this causes that” statement or “this equals that” statement.  An example of one I used to change my old limiting belief that I didn’t deserve some of the things I wanted was, “It is my birthright to have what I want. My birthright causes me to get what I want. The fact that I was born means I deserve to have the things I want.” Now hear your voice of authority confirm your “this causes/means/equals that” statement. Every time you loop your new belief over and over, allow the “this causes/means/equals that” statement to become more solid. Picture the belief on your movie screen and add lots of desire. Make it more desirable. Make the picture bigger, brighter and closer to you. Bring to bear on all of this a sense of excitement and then a sense of deservedness. Now take digital photocopies of all of that and spread it throughout your future and Think how of a you timerespond in the future where you have responded the old way past. and notice different with thewould new strong powerful belief. Now think of two more times in the future in different situations, with different people, and notice how you respond differently. Go back in your past to places were this new strong powerful belief would have been more useful than the old limiting one and notice how it would have been different with the new belief at those times, in those situations with those different people. Here is another way or you can just add it to the last way to quickly change a belief. It is called the

META “YES” – META “NO” Pattern  After you learn this you can go back and apply it to the last pattern we just experienced to solidify it even more or you can use it by itself on another belief and get great results. 99 First thing you want to do is remember a time when you were very congruent, very aligned and said, “YES” to something. Maybe it was in high school or younger when you did something that you didn’t think you could do and you did it. You know that feeling of total “YES”. Or maybe when a child was born and the first time you saw that particular child the feeling of “YES” that went along with that. Or when your child or someone you care about does something good for himself or herself that you support 100%. The “YES” that you give them for that. Now say that “YES” out loud three or four times until you feel it all the way down in your bones. Let’s set that aside for a moment and remember a time when you had the same type of congruency and alignment about something and it was “NO”. For example when a young child is about to do something like throw a fist full of food at you, that type of “NO”. Or when a pet is jumping at you as you are trying to fill their water bowl, that type of “NO”. Anytime where you had to congruently say “NO”. Now say that “NO” out loud three or four times until you feel it all the way down in your bones. And then put it aside. Think of another limiting belief that you want to get rid of and then think of the belief you want to replace it with. Take the picture of the wanted belief and place it out on the horizon as a dot.  As you think about and look at the picture of the old limiting belief, say the power “NO” and as you do notice how it looses lo oses it power. After about the third real congruent “NO,” allow the new wanted belief to zoom up and fill the screen of your mind and say the power “YES” three times very strongly and congruently. Then take digital photocopies of the “Yes” experience and with a sense of urgency spread it throughout your future and past.

a sense of excitement and acceptance with it as it goes into your past and future. Easily thinking of a time in the future where you would have responded the old way and notice how you respond differently with the new strong powerful belief. Now think of two more times in the future in different situations, with different people, and notice how you respond differently. 100 Go back in your past to places were this new strong powerful belief would have been more useful than the old limiting one and notice how it would have been different with the new belief at those times, in those situations with those different people. That is another way to quickly change a belief. And here is yet a third way to quickly change a belief.

It just gets better and better! If I were to ask you to think of something that is a possibility for you, for example is it possible that your are going to have lunch next Thursday? Something that’s a possibility, maybe, maybe not! On your mental screen within your mind where is the location of something that is a possibility for you? ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Now that you know where that is located. Let me ask you, do you need air to stay alive? And as you answer that, where would that picture appear on your mental movie screen? Notice the different locations of something that is only a possibility and something that’s absolutely true for you. 101 size and distance. Notice the differences in the color, shape, Notice the difference in the sound of the voices and the content of what they say and how they say it. Notice the difference in the way they feel to you. Now in the possibility location, build in the possibility of the new belief that you want. For example, I learn quickly, or I can do anything. Come up with some on your own. What new beliefs would you like to have? Build the new belief that you want in the possibility location. Now that it is there, begin changing the color, shape, and size of this new possibility to match the color, shape and size of the absolutely true location. When they match, it is time to move on to the next step. The next step will happen quickly when you do it. What I want you to do is, in the time that it takes you to snap your fingers, I want you to take the possibility and push it off into the distance until it becomes a dot on the horizon and then let it snap quickly into the location of what it is you believe to be absolutely true for you. Taking on the same location, size, color, shape and distance so that it is perfectly identical except for the content. The new content is the new belief. Notice how the voice has changed. And the new empowering things it is saying with absolute conviction. Notice the feeling of absolute conviction that you now feel. If it doesn’t feel completely solid, do it over until it does. Now take digital photocopies of that and spread it through-out your future and past. By thinking of ayou timerespond in the future where youthe would responded the old way and notice how differently with new have strong powerful belief. Now think of two more times in the future in different situations, with different people, and notice how you respond differently. Go back in your past to places were this new strong powerful belief would have been more useful than the old limiting one and notice how it would have been different with the new belief at those times, in those situations with those different people.

 A Couple of Ways of Opening the Power Portal   he Paradox of Our Age We have taller buildings, but shorter tempers; wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints; we spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy it less. We have bigger houses and smaller families; more conveniences, but less time; we have more degrees, but less common sense; more knowledge, but less judgment; more experts, but more problems; more medicine, but less wellness. We spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive to fast, get too angry too quickly, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too seldom, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values; We talk too much, love too seldom and lie too often; We've learned how to make a living, but not a life; we've added years to life, not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon m oon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We've conquered outer space, but not inner space; We’ve done larger things, but not better things; we've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul; we've split the atom, but not our prejudice;

We've learned to rush, but not to wait; 105 we have higher incomes, but lower morals; more food but less appeasement; more acquaintances, but fewer friends; more effort but less success; We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication; we've become long on quantity, but short on quality; These are the time of fast foods and slow digestion; tall men and short character; steep profits, and shallow relationships; These are the times of world peace, but domestic d omestic warfare; more leisure and less fun; more kinds of food, but less nutrition; These are days of two incomes, but more divorce; of fancier houses, but broken homes; These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one-night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the show window, and nothing in the stockroom.  All of these point out the need for the Power Portal, the deficiencies of knowledge without wisdom. And it really is a paradox until one realizes the truth from that great philosopher we quoted in the beginning, Mr. Spock, of the Starship Enterprise. “Anything can be logical, it just depends on what you base the logic.”  And up until now the majority of our western society has based it upon the logic that “knowledge is power”. As we stated previously knowledge is  just information. Wisdom is the ability to apply knowledge for short and long-term effectiveness for the good of all concerned.

The True Power Portal comes from… Creating WISDOM! So how can we go about creating WISDOM (Training our Thinking)? 106 ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

In this chapter we will look at a few of the ways to go about creating WISDOM! Everything that we have looked at and discussed up to this point in this work is all part and parcel of building or creating WISDOM. It is THE POWER PORTAL.

 All the flexibility created by the foundation stones; the direction of thinking about what you want as opposed to what you don’t want; the resetting of your circuit breakers and how to change and build empowering beliefs are all involved in this process of building and creating WISDOM. One easy way to create WISDOM is we can easily learn the lesson of building inside out or BE, DO, HAVE. In our culture, western that is, a lot of people think that to BE something or someone you must first have it so that you can prove that you are. 107 ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

 And yet the wise thing to do is usually the opposite. You must first BE to DO so that you HAVE. Everything really does start inside. Everything in our world started out as a thought. One can DO something without BEING and yet there is very little power and it will not be sustained very long. You don’t build a building and then you are a builder. You are a builder doing the things that a builder would do and then you have what a builder would have. In the same way you are a professional and what professional communicators do and youcommunicator have the results of you howdo well youallhave used your profession. This process is even spiritual, in the Bible it says In the beginning God. (God was.) Then he created. (God did.) Then he had. (God has.) BE, DO, HAVE. BE a human. DO what a human does. HAVE what a human has. BE a Plummer. Do what a Plummer does. Have what a Plummer has. Even if you didn't do or have, you would still think of yourself as a Plummer, yes? If you tried not to do or have what a human does or has you would still be a human. (You might be a dead human, but still human nonetheless.) Clear Intention also known as atowell-formed outcome, even it is tosuccess. get the education or whatever it takes BE, is so very important to iflasting  And it is one of the starting points of creating WISDOM. Since I’ve brought up the subject of intention and the force of intention, let’s discuss it a little bit and learn how to improve it some. Another word for intention is 'will'. And the definition of will for our purpose here is the physical manifestation of thought. Like one of my mentors said, “not to sound mystical, magical or woo-woo, but 'will' is the ability to bring into physical manifestation or reality thought.” He said by the way that is also the definition that old magicians gave to magic. He “Every building washave built ever by magic this definition.” force of will builtsaid, every building that you seen.using Everything that is in A existence today started as a thought that someone applied will too. Someone was driving along and saw a piece of land and thought a building would look good right there. Then through the force of their will they did all the things necessary to bring that building into being. They got the permits and proper documents from the city or county. They hired the engineer to do the drawings. They purchased the land. They hired the contractors to do the building and they did whatever it took to sell, lease, or rent the building once it was completed. 108 ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

So you see Builders are magicians. The force of intention, will is very powerful and it is just like a muscle. If you don’t exercise it you will not develop it. By the way, you like me, may wonder why do they call them buildings when they are already built. Shouldn’t they be called 'builds'?

It’s a “build” not a building!  Here is aDecide starterthat wayyou to begin to develop your will. Start small time and work yourdo it way up. are going to do something a specific and then and do consistently each time you make the decision. For example, decide using the force of your will or intention that you are going to drink a full glass of water before each and every meal. Also using your intention of will that you are going to drink a full glass of water at 12:00 noon on the dot and do it. No matter what it takes do it. You start by using your will on the small things and then build up from there Probably one of the best starting point for creating WISDOM is to start with the outcome in mind. What do you want? What are the results that you want to accomplish? What are the ramifications of getting this result? How will you know when you have what you want? Sound familiar? I’ll use an example that we used in a training one time and we may do something like this in future trainings also. Starting at the results and working back how would you like others to perceive you? Or how would you like to be perceived? From there what would be the values that would get you these outcomes? Then what beliefs would you have to have? And finally what behaviors would you absolutely have to have to get your outcomes? 109 ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Let’s use for sake of example the following outcomes. This is the way we would want to be perceived by others.

To stay on target we aim with our will and intention. Our target is the way we want to be perceived by others and that is passionate, respected, honest, precise communicator, with recursive wisdom, unstoppable, healthy, and competent and a practical creative genius with a good sense of humor, wealthy, sexy and famous.

Utilizing everything that happens in your life in the direction of what you want is also a part of creating WISDOM. I don’t know how quickly you will start developing well-formed outcomes in all directions of life.  And yet the more you use your will and intention proactively, the more you will begin to move in the direction of not only creating WISDOM but also living from WISDOM. And that’s where everyone wants to live from, don’t you? When someone says, “I just want to be happy!” I say, “ That’s great, are you willing to do what it takes to be happy?” They say, “What’s that?” “Do you really want to know?” “Yes!”

 Applying this from a Spiritual Point of View… Or

How to get your Prayers answered for sure… Perception Power

The Gift Once there was a holy man who traveled between villages in his home country. He was very wise and stories of his great teachings had spread across the land. Hundreds of people followed him wherever he went to listen to his teachings. One day he came to a new village, and many people gathered in the Village Square to greet him. Suddenly a very angry peasant came up to him and began to verbally assault him. He said he was a fake and that he was misleading people telling them lies and using u sing them for his own greedy purposes. 117 He went on and on and on, using every foul language in the book, red in the face and spitting as he ranted. The holy man just waited until the man had totally exhausted himself and stopped talking. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Then in a deep and calm voice he asked him the following question. "If someone offers you a gift but you don't accept it, whose gift is it?" The man was completely taken aback, but blurted out that the giver most certainly still owned the gift. The holy man then said, "I don't want your gift of offensive accusations, you can keep them to yourself" and he walked quietly away from the stunned man.

What you don't know There was a traveling man going from town to town, he wasn't a holy man just a man who traveled and worked odd jobs here and there. When he came into this one town he couldn't help but notice the stench and putrid smell of animal dung hanging in the air. He noticed that the town had two chicken breeding factories and one pigbreeding factory. Is it any wonder this town stinks, stin ks, he thought to himself. He noticed a lad running with two buckets of water between the two hen houses and he called to him, asking him to come over. When the boy arrived he asked him "How can you live in such a stench." The boy looked at him kind of strangely, thinking this was one of those weirdos that came into town once in a while, and said. "What stench? I don't smell any stench." He really meant it; he didn't smell anything out of the ordinary. "You don't smell the stink, the putrid smell?" "No I don't!"  And he proceeded to walk away. The man grabbed him by his arm. "Tell me lad for how long have you lived here?" "All my life." 118 "And have you never been up in the mountains, have you never been down to the seashore?" "No I haven't. In fact I've never been out of this town. Ever since I can remember I have always been here to help my father and mother take care of the chickens ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

and there's no time for such idle nonsense as running about while there's work to do. When I'm not working I stay in my own room in the loft of one of the chicken houses." My God, thought the traveller. "Young lad, you have to come with me right now, I am going to show you something you will never forget." He took him under the arm and almost dragged him away from the town. He took him up the mountain and all the way to the top where he could smell real fresh air without any traces of stench for the first time in his life. He had him smell the flowers and the trees and the grass.  After a while he took him back, and when they entered the town the boy could smell the filthy stench for the first time in his life. "Oh my God, what a stench. And I have been living in this putrid smell all my life without knowing it." What don't you know?

When you haven't travelled very far beyond the boundaries of your beliefs and values you don't know how good you can have it, and you don't know how bad you have it either. The prison of your beliefs and values keeps you locked inside the world you know and are familiar with. When you make the decision to go beyond the boundaries of what you know, you at first have to rely on faith and trust. There is always a little risk involved, but soon enough you start to see the infinite possibilities that are every human beings' inheritance. If you don't think you have enough faith and trust, just imagine how much trust and faith you had when were borna into this extremely harsh world as is aa totally helpless little babyyou within such vulnerable and fragile body. That faith that can move mountains, and you have already demonstrated it.

119 Change of Perception

Maybe there is a higher level of perception available to you. Maybe there is a way to perceive "good life" as "great life" or even as "ecstatic life." Maybe you can control your perception to the degree that you can perceive your normal day-to-day routine awareness as enlightenment. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

Isn't that what the saints and mystics do? Maybe they just discovered how to control their perception. Enlightened people often say "I meditated and meditated for years, trying to reach enlightenment, and then when I reached enlightenment I discovered that I had been there all the time. I hadn't changed at all, I was exactly the same before and after enlightenment." Well, bothperception. you and I know something must changed, and maybe that was their That'sthat why you can find anhave enlightened person working in a grocery store; it might be your next-door neighbor or the postal clerk. Because when you have reached this state it doesn't matter where you are or what you do. You have gone beyond that, you are no longer bound by those measurements. You have found what you were looking for and there's no longer any need to seek or look for anything. If you want to experience the boundless freedom in going beyond your normal perception of the world, YOU CAN. But the mind is on automatic, like a machine that doesn't have a stop switch. It goes on and on and on and on and never seems to stop. Its automatic perception of the world is what creates problems, difficulties and limitations.  And people have no idea why it happens. It just happens and there seems to be no way of controlling it in a healthy way. It seems that people are not so much thinking their thoughts as much as their thoughts are thinking them. And even though people wish they could change it, they can't because they don't control their thoughts or minds. That is what this little trip we have been taking throughout these pages was meant to do. This book was meant to give you back control of your thoughts and mind. In the same wein I am going to approach The Power Portal of Creating Wisdom from the spiritual side also.  As an overall frame for our research in this area, let’s look at three basic laws or principles that all spirituality from Christian to Pagan, from Fundamentalist to New Age, from Believers to Agnostic to Atheist can agree upon is in the writings of their belief systems. 120

 And those are the Law of  Attraction, the Law of Default and the Law of  Allowance. Every form of Spirituality agrees that we attract things into our lives. Every form will agree something’s happen bythat default and others through allowance.  A helpful and harmless life. Since the majority of our clients are of the Christian persuasion we will be using references from the Bible. We will also give other examples to show how this is applicable in any other area.

Words that describe the same thing: Christianity New Age Science Psychology  American Indian  Atheist

God Higher Power  Energy Super Consciousness Great Spirit Self(as opposed to self)

Hebrew Huna (Hawaiian) Others

Yahweh (Jehovah) Powaumakua The Creator 

Now, these words came from friends and acquaintances that claimed to be the first column. If you disagree, fine. Whatever the name is that you use to describe that which is greater than yourself, place that in the list and use it along with the rest of them. 121  All these words God, Higher Power, Energy, Energy, Super Consciousness, The Great Spirit, Self, Powaumakua, Powaumakua, The C Creator reator and others others are just terms used to ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

attempt to describe the same thing. Whatever it is that came first and created everything else. I will usually refer to the creator so as to not step on any toes. And yet I will give proof texts from the Scripture know as the Holy Bible for my brethren in Christianity that need it. st

In (Bible) of the the law 1  Corinthian Letter, Paul, of the book law kills, but the writer spirit of gives life. That must be said why that theythe callletter it spirituality and not legality. Most of us get caught up in the words and their definitions (legality) as opposed to their intended meaning (spirituality). To begin this discussion, let’s talk about the three laws. First, the Law of  Attraction states that whatever you think about or talk about you attract. Go back and read the parts of this work that talk about the unconscious and how it operates and its parameters. For example, I was talking to someone and they were describing why their marriage had failed and what they had learned positive from that experience. He said that everyday he was hoping and thinking, “I want to have a good marriage.” Well he learned that he attracted to himself just what he had been focusing on – wanting a good marriage-. He wound up getting a divorce. He learned to focus on what he wanted –a good marriage- by saying, “I’m enjoying a good marriage” and guess what he manifested, created, or attracted. That’s right, a good marriage. Now the Law of Default works very simply. It is the other side of the coin. Whatever happens in your life comes from the law of default except those things that you deliberately use the Law of Attraction to attract. In addition, the Law of Allowance is what we discussed earlier about “responsibility to”This and way “responsibility for”, (goe back and finds in one of the earlier chapters. you can understand the principle ofitallowance.) Or as Grampa Vetter used to say, “Each of us is responsible for our own learning’s because what we fail to learn through intelligence, we learn through physical example." First, I want to deal with the concept of good and evil and then we will deal with the concept of creator, created and co-creator. 122  As we begin our discussion of good and evil, go read the 1st chapter in the Book called the Bible referred to as Genesis. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

I don’t know if you are aware, but there were two trees in the garden of Eden that were not of this world. In fact they were mentioned because they were different than all the other trees available to man and woman. One they were supposed to eat from and one they weren’t. The amazing thing is that most of the people that I talk to and those that admit to being Christian continue to live by one of those trees and from my understanding scripture. mankind wasn’tofsuppose to It’s eat.the wrong tree to be living from, it is the one

Two of these! One tree was the knowledge of good and evil and one was the tree of life. Here are two trees-the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which mankind was not supposed to eat from and the tree of life, which mankind was supposed to eat from. Mankind was alive and had life, so what kind of life exist in the tree of life? Well, the highest life form, uncreated, divine life. Mankind was living by human life, not the uncreated life of God. Which would allow mankind to live a helpful and harmless life. Now the uncreated life of God would do more than contain the knowledge of good and evil, it would include the ability to do more than 'know' if something 123 was good or evil, right or wrong, good or bad, it would provide wisdom the ability to use and apply the knowledge of good and evil in the most useful way.

(Side note for an example of this read Judges Chapter 3 and find out were murder was more useful than not. One of the big ten is thou shall not kill and yet in Judges Chapter 3 it comes from the tree of life and has a different outcome.) Now understanding Divine Life can be kind of tricky. I love the Hawaiian Huna concept about it. The Creator is so much higher above than they are that they simply do the things that are in mankind’s domain properly and however the Creatorand does what the Creator does is theadd. Creators business they just get results good positive results, I might

To help us understand this a little better, has anyone reading this ever had a pet? Whether it was a dog, cat, or a goldfish or whatever the pet was, the pet lived by pet life. Now biologically pet life is a lower life fform orm than human life. If somehow we were able to take human life and place it into your pet, even then your pet could not live by human life. The human life being a higher life form would have to live through the pet. All the pet could do is get up in the morning and live by faith that the human life (the higher life form) would come out. In the same way, with highest life form inside of them cannot live by that life. All we canhumans do is live ourthe lives and point back and say, "There was divine life”. Jesus proved that when he said in the book of John that he didn’t do the works it was the father within him. Even Jesus couldn’t live the so-called Christian life; he let divine life live through him. Scripture-wise, the reason we were to eat of the tree of life was so that we could have dominion over this world: the world of our physical body and the physical planet called earth. In other words, we were to be co-creators with the Creator. 124  The scripture say that after six days the Creator stopped creating.

This means anything that was/is created after the sixth day was/is created by co-creators, you and me. In the New Testament Jesus said, when arguing with the religious leaders of his time, (wait a minute, that happens today too) “Even your scripture (which he had divinely inspired-from a Christian point of view) says that you are all gods.” He was referring to Psalms 82. This brings up the question of creator, created and co-creator. A lot of Christians believe that the created are to worship the Creator, which they do, and yet they seem to never deal with the concept of co-creators and having dominion and so they always blame God or someone else. Not very useful for a co-creator, wouldn’t you say. The problem lies in our understanding. In Genesis Chapter 1 God said, “Let US make man in OUR image and let…” To understand this we have to be able to understand Christian math, 3 = 1 and 1 = 3. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit = God. God = Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I wonder if the Holy Spirit is the feminine part of God. And they are all invisible.  And as a side question, what was God’s ultimate intention? One fellow named Paul said it was so he would be in all, to all, and through all, the All in all. You and I are all’s and the big All wants to be ALL in all. The creator may be in all and yet not the ALL in all. What does it mean to be made in God’s image? Well the old line is we are spirit, we possess a soul and we live in a physical body, an earth suit. While this is true and it is, three in one it doesn’t quit fit because all 3 of the one God are invisible? Modern psychology can help us out here a little bit. Fraud gave us the ego, id and the super ego. Jung called it the conscious, unconscious and the collective unconscious/super consciousness. The Hawaiian Huna’s said we have three spirits (invisible things). Here we will say we have a spirit, a conscious mind and an unconscious mind (three invisible things). Now that is more in line with the image of God from a 125 Christian point of view. As we have been talking about through this whole book about opening the communication between your conscious and your unconscious. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

Your unconscious has the direct line to your spirit which according to scripture is where the Holy Spirit is located. (To learn more about how this can be, check out Quantum Physics.) What we are really concerned about in this manual is getting your conscious and your unconscious lined up. Lined up, working together and communicating so that the high energy that is in your spirit can come through. Fromkind a spiritual pointYour of view, your conscious mind produces energy, the lowest of energy. unconscious mind produces energy, kind of like energy-energy, and your spirit produces energy, high energy. With high energy you can get anything done. Miracles, magic and supernatural things can be accomplished with high energy. Remember miracles and magic are things that science has not proven yet. Science is just miracles and magic explained. And really look at the word SUPERnatural. It is natural, just more of it. I like the way a teacher explained it: you are always connected to your spirit or as some would say your parental spirits and that is where wisdom resides. The challenge getting unconscious together soisthat youyour can get what you and want.your conscious lined up, working Because of the Law of Attraction you are always getting what you think about and talk about. Even if you think about and talk about what you don’t want. Remember the unconscious parameters in an earlier chapter; The Law of  Attraction will bring you what you are attracting. You attract by what what you think and say. Going back to scripture, it says, as a man thinketh in his heart so is he (Old Testament) and you wash the outside of the cup while the inside is dirty, first clean the inside and then the outside… (New Testament)   Oh by to the way, all of“Power this can be energy tested. When youyou come one of our Portal” trainings we will show how to energy test and you can prove this for yourself. Using energy testing you will be able to start communicating and improve the communicating with yourself, consciously and unconsciously. So you can take energy and allow your unconscious to create energy-energy and give it to your spirit to create high energy. Your spirit will give you whatever 125 you ask and yet it will not give you what you need because of free will. Doesn’t scripture say that if you ask and believe in your heart (conscious and unconscious) you can have whatever you want. ©Copyright 2010 Accelerated Success Strategies Inc. www.DocResults.com   www.DocResults.com

 

“Train Your Thinking, The Power Portal for Long-Lasting Success” Edition #4

Using the principle of the Law of Attraction, understanding how the conscious and the unconscious work and having a well-formed outcome, which leaves people, better off than you found them allows you to get anything you want. Oh by the way, if you are going to use this powerful process, you will really want to leave people better off than you found them. This is living a helpful and harmless life, or in other words a life of love. Now some people wonder about things like bad spirits, demons and negative things or as one teacher called them eating companions. And to cover that would be another book. But let me add in the book (Bible) it says greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. That would cover all of the above. We could go more in depth and yet I just wanted to touch on the aspects of “The Power Portal” from a spiritual point of view. Until next time,
