CHAPTER 12
THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND
THE CONNECTING LINK
The Eleventh Step toward Riches
The subconscious mind, that mysterious part of our brain that most people don't understand. As a matter fo
fact many are not even aware that it exists. It is a part of our brain that we can't totally control. But,
as we learn in TGR, we can give it instructions by repeating our self-talk(s) many times each day.
Reprogramming our subconscious mind is difficult and can only be done by persisting. It does not happen
overnight. That is why having a rock solid why is so important. If your why is wishy washy it will wilt
very quickly and you will fail at whatever you are trying to accomplish.
You have to remember that we all have a tendency towards the negative, its the easy road through life. If we
don't have positive thoughts our mind will come uo with some negative ones and feed that to our subconscious
mind.
I have difficulty with this. I keep getting thoughts like : "Yeah, like that will work!", "It might work for
someone else, but not for me!".
With thoughts like that, is it any wonder I am struggling? I know I have these thoughts rooted within my
subconscious mind and that I have to pull them out root and all. And they are well rooted after over 60
years of growth. But I persist and say my positive self-talks, yes I have a number of them, as many times as
I can every day.
I am thankful and grateful that I have this mastermind group to help me. Love and thanks to all.

Chapter 12
The Subconscious Mind
The subconscious mind works day and night when you are asleep or awake. You cannot control it all the time but you can feed it with your thoughts your desires or your planes.
You have to make your desires clear say your self talk over and over, hundreds of times, write them down and use persistence in carrying out exactly what you desire. Remember your subconscious mind picks up on your thoughts negative or positive anytime it never remains idle.
When I first started reading Think and Grow Rich my subconscious mind was filled with fear superstition and anger.
Fear of failing in whatever I tried to do. Fear of hurting others when I asked for help. Fear of being loved and understood. Superstition of what everybody thought of me as if I could read their mind. Anger in myself when I failed.
I guess it all started when I was growing up. My teenage years of going to school having friends and a sweetheart was taken away from me by Hitler. Instead of schooling of math history faith sports and parties I was taught how to live on nothing how to fight how to hate. I also was taught how to never give up regardless of what I had to do. I was taught to never get tired or feel hunger or wanting to close my eyes and go to sleep.
Now Hill is teaching me how to love hope and have faith in myself. I also learned that it is not the big things that really get your mind to thinking the right things sometimes it is the small things that cause you to understand. Like a drizzling rain sitting on the riverbank talking to my mastermind group that suddenly took away my fear of picking up a phone and calling. The time I was sitting on the porch at a cabin in the mountains when a lizard crawled up my leg took away the fear I had in helping others. The time I walked in Michael and Linda’s house for the first time the feeling in my mind and heart of the calmness and love made me realize people do believe in me and love me and are willing to help me with no strings attached.
It has taken over two years of reading Think and Grow Rich and the help of Michael Linda and Shelly to get my mind turned around and thinking right. To have positive thoughts, and believe in myself. To have hope and a burning desire to reach my goals. My struggles have been slow but I am picking up speed and I can see the finish line in the distance. Thanks to God and my mentoring for free group I am now living a wonderful and beautiful life my mind is getting filled with positive thoughts.
Thanks everybody
Ernest

Uwe Wagner - Oldenburg, Germany
Subconscious Mind
Do you remember the fairy tales from your childhood?
Of course you do. There are plenty of.
Oh, I am especially referring to those dealing with a Lady Bountiful or a genie in a bottle granting us three wishes to be fulfilled. I really liked those stories and as a child I was prepared for the very moment, having my top three wishes already well formulated.
But nothing happened. Nobody ever appeared asking me for them.
Really? Can I be sure of that?
Of course I have learnt to be rational, to distinguish between a fairy tale and the seriousness of reality. But can it be I have missed something?
Looking back to my life some really remarkable coincidences happened or shall I say some wishes have become reality? Well, sometimes I wouldn't call them wishes, rather apprehensions or worries. So obviously it works both ways.
But something really flattened me when I thought about it later on and gave me creeps when I read this book. Either I could predict the future quite precise or the “mechanisms” mentioned by Hill really work.
In Summer 96 my long term relationship to a woman came to an end. It really struck me hard. This wasn't only because we had made so many plans for our future, for our family we wanted to have. At that time I was in my early thirties and all of my friends already having a family, something I always dreamt of. Now I felt like my dream was perished, because I would be unable to find a woman to start a family with.
Yes, it was fear that was gnawing at me. It came to my mind that either the woman would be “too old” (until we finally would get married) to have kids or the difference in age between the two of us would be too big to give the marriage a chance of survival. And on, and on, and on...
So, giving up? - Never!
Thus I went out together with friends and also started something I called a direct search. This included also the lonely hearts column, just to silence my consciousness by having done everything possible. When planning all this I imagined it would take me a full year to be successful.
For a year nothing really moved. Plenty of acquaintances but nothing that caused heartthrob. Depressing.
Exactly one year later – I mean exactly, ritht to the date – my subconscious delivered with an unbelievingly high precision.
It struck me unprepared!
It all started with a response to one of my adverts and I called back (if it was only not to blame myself afterwards of not having done so) and the call lasted more than five times as long as any phone call in my life before!
We arranged to meet the next day and it was (how it says in Sleepless in Seattle?) like magic. My dream became true. We got married in less than a year and she as well as four wonderful kids enrich my life now.
While talking (we still enjoy spending an evening talking to have everything settled what may have happened during the day) we found out we could have met half a year earlier and just missed by a “coincidence”. With all that I am knowing today I could have shortened my suffering, by simply set a much earlier date to make it happen.
What an insight!
Thus I have learnt it really can make a difference and its wise to guard my thoughts and emotions. The genie will deliver, for the good or for the bad.
I for myself have a strong intention, no, a commitment to learn how to control my imagination and my emotions to carefully select my wishes I present to the Lady Bountiful alias subconscious mind.
In gratefulness and expectation

To see how this lesson has played out in the life of Napoleon Hill and Michael
Dlouhy read on.
The subconscious mind responds like a well-trained soldier when it comes
to following commands. It has no motive to distinguish between right or
wrong, it simply does as it's told without question.
Wouldn't it be awesome if we could get everybody to see things our way
and thus follow our lead without question? When you learn the subconscious
mind is susceptible to the power of influence based on the deliberate
programing of individuals through all forms of media you can own the world.
In looking back on Sex Transmutation in Napoleon Hill’s book Think and Grow
Rich he talks about using the emotions associated with sex & love to propel
one to greater achievements.
Most people don’t know that Hill was married to two different women during
his life time. Hill, married his first wife Florence Elizabeth Hornor, in June 1910.
By all accounts, Hill loved his wife and enjoyed being a father. Yet, by late 1912,
the growing belief that his fame and fortune still lay out there Hill move to Chicago.
When President Franklin Delano Roosevelt asked Hill to join the staff of his
National Recovery Administration to help inspire public confidence, he accepted.
This notion , closed the door on the marriage and in 1935, they were divorced.
In early 1937, Hill met 29-year-old Rosa Lee Beeland. They married a few months
later and she labored with him on his next manuscript, a work he tentatively called
The Thirteen Steps to Riches. After months of editing and rewriting, he showed
the completed manuscript to his publisher, who finally agreed to publish it, and the
new book went to press as Think and Grow Rich, and became Hill’s greatest work.
My point in sharing this story related to the previous chapter is because so
many people go through life believing that somebody or something is derailing
or holding them back from achieving their goals. This belief is programing the
subconscious mind for failure. If something is actually holding you back, then
you have a serious decision to make. You either stick with it to make the best
of the situation or you make a decision to move forward on the game board
to win at the game of life.
Napoleon Hill is living proof that making a decision to move forward made all
the difference in the world for him and his life's work.
My mentor Michael Dlouhy and his wife Linda are perfect example of a couple
who have programed their subconscious minds for success by applying the
principles described in Think and Grow Rich. They have programed their lives
for success by saying their self-talk and edifying and motivating each other
to succeed because they are ALL IN… Love together. How will you take
control of your subconscious mind?
Prosperous Regards,
Frank LooSer
