Recently a great idea popped into my head about
creating a software program. Now, if the truth be
told, I know absolutely nothing about computer
programming. But the thought of creating this
software was very persistent, so I went to the book
store and purchased a few books for beginning programming.
As I was reading about how to become a computer
programmer, it dawned on me how similar the computer
is to who we are.
Do you realize that the computer is absolutely
nothing without a program to run on it? If it
weren’t any programming installed into your computer,
the computer would not be able to do anything. All
it would be is a piece of hardware without the programming.
All of the information that is stored in the computer
is different programming that someone put together
for the computer to run.
Did you ever know that in order for a programmer
to create software, they have to know exactly what
they want the computer to do BEFORE they can start
creating the program? In other words, they have to
have a vision of what the end product will do BEFORE
they start the creation process.
That’s exactly how we have to live our life.
We have to know EXACTLY what we want to accomplish,
have a clear visual picture of it, and then start
programming our days in order to create the outcome
we desire.
The computer can only do what it is programmed
to do. If there is a computer error, the error
really isn’t with the computer, but in the programming
that is stored on the computer.
The same way if something is not going well in our
life, it is because of the programming that is in
our subconscious mind.
Our subconscious mind is where we create our
programming. It is the part of us that stores
the information that is pulled out of our consciousness.
Computers are constantly being upgraded.
New software is constantly coming out better
and more powerful than last year’s model.
For instance, back in the day, we use to
use Harvard Graphics (hope I’m not the only
person who remembers that software program).
Today we use PowerPoint. The program has been
modified and upgraded to bring about better,
more efficient results.
If you want to change the outcome of your
life so that you can have a improved, better
modified and upgraded life, you have to change
your programming.
If you are normally a negative person,
you will have to learn to change the
programming in your subconscious mind
from negative to positive.
If you are always thinking of lack and not
having enough, then you will have to change
your programming from the lack consciousness
to wealth consciousness.
If you want to have everything that you
desire so that you can do everything that
you want out of life, then you have to change
your belief system from believing that you
cannot have–to believing that you can have
all that you desire.
You have to change your inner programming.
But how do you change the programming that
has been playing in your subconscious mind
for so many years?
Like I always say, “it’s a simply process,
but it’s not easy.”
I’m going to let you know exactly what you
have to do. If you follow this outline, you
can become a beginner’s programmer. The more
you work on it the more progress you will see
and the more you will learn how to manifest
all the abundance that you desire.
The first step is to become aware.
Become aware of your thoughts. Be conscious.
Wake up!
Spike Lee is a movie producer and in the
beginning of his career, each of his movies
would begin or end with someone shouting the
words, “Wake up!”
You must wake up and become aware of the
programming that is being played over and
over again in your subconscious mind.
Once you become aware, you have to realize
that you can control your thoughtsit’s one
of the few things that we have absolute
control over.
When you find yourself thinking negative
thoughtsstop. Redirect your thoughts from
negative to positive.
If you find yourself thinking of lack or
telling yourself, I can’t afford this or
I can’t afford that. Stop! Tell yourself
that the world is full of abundance and
you can have everything that you desire.
Repeat to yourself, over and over again,
“The Lord is my Shepherd. I shall not want!”
And believe it. If you don’t believe it at
first, say it anyway. Say it over and over
until you can feel it in your bones.
“The Lord is my Shepherd, I Shall Not Want!
And believe that you will never WANT for nothing.
Create affirmations that feel good to your
soul and repeat them, daily, over and over
and over and over and over and over…until
you can FEEL it and believe it.
This is how you reprogram your subconscious
mind. You don’t have to study programming for
computers, but you do have to learn how to
programming yourself for success.
ACTION POINT: This week we will be reprogramming
our subconscious mind. Become aware of your
thoughts and your feelings. If you find yourself
feeling or thinking negativelySTOP! Create an
affirmation (or a prayer) that makes you feel
good and positive and repeat it over and over
again. Write it down. Read it out loud. Say it
to yourself or out loud when you are driving.
Say it to yourself when you are at work. Say it
to yourself while you are watching commercials
on television. Say it to yourself over and over
again in the shower, while you’re walking, while
you’re shopping, while you’re in the bathroom,
any time you think about it. The more you say it
and the more feeling you have when you say it,
the quicker the reprogramming will take effect.
This is how you change your inner computeryour
subconscious mindby reprogramming your thoughts
for success.
