The me I see is the me I’ll be – Anonymous

It is an incontestable fact that what you see in your mind i.e. what you envision, is what you ultimately become. And the process is quite simple: What you envision is the picture you feed your subconscious, which is what actually drives your conscious thoughts, speech and action, and ultimately decides the results you have in life.

As a matter of fact, nothing ‘becomes’ unless and until you ‘see’ it in your subconscious mind. Research has proven that what a man learns is determined 90 per cent by what he sees; nine per cent by what he hears, and only one per cent by the other senses.

So also with the subconscious

And so it is with the subconscious – the ‘driving seat’ of conscious action. The picture you feed it with, which is the equivalent of your vision, is what it feeds on and what in turn determines the signals it sends to the conscious ‘surface’.

As I pointed out a while back, the subconscious is the equivalent of the workmen in the engine room of a ship, which though unseen below the deck, are the ones that determine the movement of the ship. It is also comparable to the part of the iceberg that lies below the water surface, which is actually its biggest part, and which determines the direction the visible iceberg moves.

Our vision is indeed God’s way of revealing the possible to us, and is actually our divine heritage following our receipt of the breath from Him. It is part of the divinity we share with God, and what therefore makes us gods, as the Scriptures reveal.

Aiding the mind to envision

It has been a practice across ages to ‘assist’ the mind to envision an objective or end by means many and varied. One of such means is to place within physical sight a picture or representation of whatever one desires. For instance, you find on the walls of many homes, paintings or pictures of the occupiers’ ideal home or vehicles. By viewing this regularly in the conscious, the subconscious is affected and made to ‘see’ the representation as a ‘worthy’ objective or end. In turn and with adequate repetitions of this view, the subconscious mind impresses it on the conscious man who in turn ‘thinks, plans and acts’ toward achieving this ideal.
