IS YOUR MIND WORKING FOR YOU ----OR AGAINST YOU?
There is a lot of proof showing your subconscious mind is strong and able to make important changes to improve your life.
Dr Charles Garfield, a former NASA researcher, wrote about a startling experiment conducted by Soviet sports scientists. The study examined the effect of mental training, including visualization, on four groups of world-class athletes just prior to the 1980 Olympics. The four groups of elite athletes were divided as follows:
Group #1: did 100% physical training for their sport.
Group #2: did 75% physical training, AND 25% mental training, purposely rehearsing excellent performance.

Group #3: did 50% physical training, AND 50% mental training.
Group #4: did only 25% physical training, AND 75% mental training.

The researchers found that Group #4 – the group with the most mental training – had shown significantly greater improvement than Group #3. Likewise, Group #3 showed more improvement than Group #2, and Group #2 showed more improvement than Group #1.
Dr Garfield wrote, “During mental rehearsal, athletes create mental images of the exact movements they want to emulate in their sport. Use of this skill substantially increases the effectiveness of goal-setting, which up until then had been little more than a dull listing procedure.”
If mental exercises and visualization could have such a profound impact on athletes, what kind of impact could it have on you?
Can you use the same principle to improve your confidence, attitude, and skills?
Could using a new positive mental attitude impact you and:
- your learning ability;
- your golf swing;
- your ability to stick to a diet and reduce your weight;
- And other changes you would like to make?
THE ANSWER IS ALWAYS “YES!” to all of these questions.
When we bypass our disbelief and tap the healing forces within us, we can recover.
This study PROVES that your mind is so powerful that it can literally bring wonderful (or tragic) events to bear within days.
Many people do have their minds working for them, but in negative ways. Doctors call this psychosomatic illness – an illness caused by a person’s negative belief system. Most people never learn how to tap into and control this powerful force.
--Start with a more Positive Mental Attitude ("P.M.A.") --Say NO to negative thoughts and judgments inside your head. --Refuse to accept anything that is not uplifting to your spirit.
YOU CAN NO LONGER ACCEPT THE LUXURY OF A NEGATIVE THOUGHT!
Test to see if a revised set of beliefs helps you perform better, make you happier and give you a stronger sense of who you really are.
I'm promising you that it will do all these things. You just need to learn how to take better care of your P.M.A.
