In this way, the conscious mind expresses its power. Keep in mind, however, it is the subconscious faculties of the mind that may either support or override that conscious decision. In other words, a conscious decision is short-lived unless it becomes planted into the subconscious mind as your reality. Understanding this is vital to the success of whatever program you use to better the quality of your life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cb\u003eWelcome to a new understanding.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe very first chapter gets right into helping you with a simple, effective exercise that actually brings you to a place of uncluttered consciousness. This exercise is about \u003cb\u003eletting go of all of our external baggage\u003c\/b\u003e to find our essence. This external baggage can include \u003cu\u003efeelings\u003c\/u\u003e inspired by our past programming and experiences, the \u003cu\u003elabels\u003c\/u\u003e we use to identify who we are, our \u003cu\u003eemotions\u003c\/u\u003e, and the \u003cu\u003euncertainties\u003c\/u\u003e we may have about or future.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e     Once this essence is revealed, \u003cb\u003ethe book goes on to explore the different views\u003c\/b\u003e that exist and how they can all be traced back to this same essence. All conflict that exists between views, thus, is of a superficial nature. All diversity that exists is on a superficial level, and diversity is all a part of the grand scheme of nature. Nature loves diversity. And from uninhibited diversity balance is achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e     It is when this balance is interrupted, or even threatened, that conflict results. The book reminds us that in every case where conflict results, that its cause can easily be traced back to superficial disharmony. It is from this understanding that all answers are to be found by returning to this place of uncluttered consciousness. Once the foundation for finding harmony is well established, \u003cb\u003ethe focus of the book then shifts\u003c\/b\u003e to defining and exploring the keys of success.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e     Almost without exception, the stories of the most successful have been wrought with a period of self-doubt or suffering prior to their success. I have written \u003cb\u003ea very special chapter\u003c\/b\u003e to address this issue. Essentially, this is an inspirational chapter that can give strength during this frustrating time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is true there are numerous books on the market that treat the subject of personal growth. The general consensus of these books is that we simply need to change our perspective to affect positive change in our lives. Although they are right on in their advice and revealing in their explanations, the common approach they teach has been purely intellectual. The trouble with simply trying to maintain a more positive perspective with a purely intellectual approach is that it is so darn hard to avoid being exposed to opposite views. Consider how we are literally inundated with negativity on a daily basis by the media, friends, family, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e     Like dieting, simply trying to change our perspective doesn´t work in the long run. A purely intellectual attempt is a conscious attempt. It excludes the subconscious mind, where some \u003ci\u003eninety\u003c\/i\u003e percent of our mental activity takes place, including our habits.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e     \u003ci\u003eClose Your Eyes\u003c\/i\u003e is written in a way to inspire thought \u003cb\u003eon a more profound level\u003c\/b\u003e than simply intellectual. It is written on an emotional level to connect with our feelings. This emotional element is necessary for the information to take hold on a subconscious level.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn summary, \u003ci\u003ethis book deals more with the journey itself\u003c\/i\u003e to success. It gives a unique perspective of \u003cb\u003ewhat to expect along-the-way\u003c\/b\u003e that other books tend to overlook. For this reason, I feel this book is unique and will fill a nic\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Xlibris Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47129498386672,"sku":"9781462834914","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781462834914_p0.jpg?v=1763678778","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781462834914","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
