This is the way that most people think about things. They want a complete package, and if you look close enough, you will notice that most of us have a lot of them! While this is mostly true, it can also be a little misleading. When you think about it, your thoughts, emotions, and actions are still driven by several different parts of your brain.
The mind is made up of more than just the “rational” part. So while our rational thinking is often split into two different parts, the remaining part of our mind is all about the “emotional” part. We can think or feel something without consciously knowing what we are doing, and we are aware of that, but in the end, that conscious thinking and feeling only tells us what we want to know.
All this is the reason I have a lot of trouble with the word “conscious,” because I can’t find a good definition for it. But what the brain does is it creates a web of connections, or nets, to process all the information coming at it at the same time.
The brain is like a huge, interconnected computer. When the computer is processing all the information coming at it at the same time, it is processing things very differently. It becomes a lot more analytical. A lot more complicated. A lot more conscious. It’s not a conscious thing to be thinking about, but it allows the mind to be more aware.
We just don’t want to have to worry about the brain for a whole lot of the time. That’s okay. The brain is more intelligent and will not let itself be distracted. We don’t have to worry about what you think you can do now or that you think you can.
We all have brains and a lot of it is just a bunch of electrical impulses. But it is also a very complex collection of neurons, which are like mini-brain cells. When you look at your brain, you’re seeing neural activity from all over the place. We are actually doing a lot of brainwork, in real time, in order to solve the problems we have. Our brains are doing a lot of the thinking that we’re doing.
It also comes as no surprise that what we do in our heads has an effect on the way our bodies actually function. Because our own brains are a lot like our own bodies, our brains are actually changing our bodies. When we take the time to notice our own thoughts, to become aware that they’re happening, and to feel the emotions that their are, that’s the opposite of just being. We’re doing work. We’re changing ourselves.
Well, it’s true. When we are aware of our thoughts, feelings, and actions, we actually physically change. For instance, when we look into our own minds we see that our thoughts and actions are affecting the people around us. We do other things with our bodies too, but we also consciously change the way we move, the way we breathe, and much more.
Its important to realize that our thoughts can affect not just us but others too. The more aware we become of our thoughts and actions, the less we can change and the more we can choose what to keep and what to change. The more aware we are of our actions, the more we can influence our surroundings and the more likely we are to feel powerful. Our thoughts and actions affect our surroundings and by acting on them, we are affecting others as well.
All of this is good to know, but you don’t have to be aware of your thoughts and actions to affect others. In fact, if you’re not aware of these thoughts and actions, you can be as harmful as the person who does. But you can influence others with awareness of your actions, and with the people around you. One of the best ways to affect others is to help them.
