Nonconscious Goals Can Put You in a Bad Mood
by Kevin Hogan
Have you ever been in a bad mood that you couldn't explain why...or how you got there?
For the last couple of years you and I have talked a lot about how our brains are usually on a preset program that is buried deep inside. We have no idea what program is running. It doesn't think. You can't talk to it. It can't talk to you, but in a later article I'll show you how to modify it.
Non Verbal Programming
The program that is running doesn't have words to send to consciousness so you can know what or why the program is running.
"Why are you in such a bad mood?"
"Um, I don't know...I just am."
or
"Why are you so fricking happy?"
"I don't know...I just feel good."
Ever have either of those conversations with someone else?
They see you bumming out or happy as a kite and wonder how you got that way. They develop an opinion about you (good or bad) and YOU (the conscious you that is reading this) had ZERO control over that mood. You had ZERO control over the feeling.
It....was....just....there.
This is the same part of our brain that generates stimulii in the higher brain that causes us to say something really stupid or unkind (or kind and brilliant....though we are rarely remembered for those things).
"You're just such a b*tch."
"You're a first rate pain in the *ss"
And then the other person looks at you and says,
"What?" (or "screw you I'm outta here.")
And you say....
"I didn't really mean that."
And YOU (the part that is reading this) are telling the truth.
YOU absolutely didn't intend that, but your nonconscious mind interacted with feelings which caused the verbal part of your brain to light up and spit out words in a language that your conscious understands.
So, who's in control of our thoughts...?
