Reprogram the mind: 3 steps to achieve it

If you continue with the same behavior as always, you are not going to change your existence. It’s as simple as that. If there is something you don’t like, modify it. People tend to complain about everything, but they are “comfortable” enough to take the leap and do it in a different way. Don’t forget this mantra: “if you really want a different result, then do something different.”

It seems too logical and simple when put into words, but in practice, it is not always so. The thing is that people are creatures of habit, that we do things out of repetition, out of comfort, not thinking about any other option, etc. However, we are also the first to complain or criticize what happens to us. Wouldn’t it be easier to get to work and forge our own destiny? Maybe you can say that this has already been written, but it is also true that in the future “you have to help him a little.”

For your brain to be programmed as it is today, many years, experiences and events had to pass. That was forging your personality, the way you relate to people, the upbringing you give to your children, the achievements in your work, etc. The good news is that the mind can be “reprogrammed” like a computer or mobile phone. This “reset” helps us to be able to face our present and, above all, the future, in a better way, eliminating everything that does not do us good or that prevents us from moving forward.

If you want to change something in your life, the first thing you should do is ask yourself why you want to change it.. It is not necessary for other people to know this answer. Do the exercise while alone at home, in your room, while you take a bath or even when you go on a trip. The second question is why do you want to do it? Maybe because you are not happy, because you are looking for love that does not come, because you are trying to graduate or be promoted at work. There may not even be a specific reason beyond “being a better person.”

Think about the steps you should take to change your behavior and how long it will take you to achieve it. Be objective and balanced: it is not good for the deadline to be too close or too far away.

Our programming comes from childhood, from the first moment of our lives. It is conditioned by the upbringing of our parents and the teachings of our teachers. While it is true that personality has a lot to do with it, relationships are more than important. If you want to reprogram yourself as you would with your PC, you have to design that new software or program so that it is according to your needs and requirements.

It is proven by medical studies in the area of ​​neuroscience that people “converse” with themselves about 14 hours per day. Of this communication, 90% of the words or language is negative. “I don’t understand anything”, “I can’t do it”, “it’s very difficult”, “I’m too clumsy”, “I’m always late”, “this is not for me”, are just some of the most frequent phrases that pass through our lives. mind. If we continue with the computer example, they would be like viruses that destroy the system. The same thing happens inside you. All you have to do is apply a good antivirus and eliminate all the malware that has taken over one of the most valuable parts of your body, the mind.

Your thoughts and your beliefs in the past are what create your present and are therefore forging your future. If you don’t consider yourself a leader today, you won’t be one tomorrow either. If you think you won’t find the love of your life on this day, you won’t find it on the next either. All this for not reprogramming the brain as it should. You need to modify your ideas to achieve your goals.

Since your mind has the tendency to “talk,” when you realize that that conversation is going towards the negative, start repeating positive affirmations. Thus, you will spread evil, like the clouds in the sky when there is wind.

1-Repetition: Program your mind by repeating an affirmation as many times as you can. This will cause greater neural activity and you will be, as said before, eliminating bad ideas. Slowly change the thinking patterns that damage the brain.

2-Reminders: The mind will make you forget what you want to change because it will have what is called “resistance to change.” Imagine that inside your brain there is a person who controls the programming and who is somewhat reluctant to modify the habits that he or she has been repeating for years. You must be a strict and disciplined boss so that your “employee” complies with what you tell him or her. The problem is that you can’t fire him, you have to deal with him.

3-Visualization: Every day take between 5 and 10 minutes to think about that goal you have. Imagine that you are already experiencing that situation, feel the same way you will at that moment. Try to add more and more details to that portrait, until the scene is complete.
