Using ALL of your mental faculties

Here’s a question for you. How well do you use your whole mind when making decisions and working toward your goals? What? Do you use your whole mind? When you life something very heavy, it may require you to use more of your muscle groups than if it were something light. Am I correct?


Well consider what you want out of life. Would you like to create something much greater in your life than you are currently experiencing? If so, then are you prepared to use more of your mind? Now when I say this, many may begin gearing up their will power to meet the task of overcoming any resistance that may get in the way of achieving their dreams.


This is like trying to use brute force. It may get you somewhere but there is a better way. There is a much better way. That would be using your whole mind. So here we are back to a question. Do you know what I mean by whole mind? Your mind has several distinct faculties. How many are there? Do you know? And what are they each used for?


First of all your mental activity takes place on a conscious level, and it also functions on a subconscious level. Conscious simply means that you are aware of this activity, if you pay attention. The subconscious activity is activity that takes place below your conscious awareness, thus the name.


Now for obvious reasons I cannot go into a great deal of detail here. This is only a blog. But I would like to give you a brief description of what can be of tremendous assistance to you in using your mind more efficiently.


Your mind is used to perceive things. This is the faculty of perception. You are aware of using your senses of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Perhaps you are aware of some other sense, commonly known as the sixth sense. This is considered another faculty, intuition.


The intuition serves in the same way as the physical senses in that it picks up vibratory frequencies. Your ears pick up on the frequencies of sound. Your eyes pick up on the frequencies of light. Your intuition picks up on the frequencies of thought. Mind you , you do not read the actual thoughts of others, you simply pick up on the frequency of those thoughts.


You have the faculty of memory. Everything you have ever sensed, experienced, even thought is stored away in your memory. Your memory is perfect in this. It is your ability to recall that information that is less than 100%.


We are all aware of our faculty of imagination. This faculty is fun to use. It can also cause us much problem when it is not used correctly by us. It has been rightly called the workshop of the mind. It is the seat of creativity, but many do not know how to use this faculty to produce real results.


The faculty of reason is the one where our society has placed much emphasis. And yes, it is a very important faculty; however, it is only one of the many that we have access to. This is the seat of logic and is considered to be our intelligence. It is used to come to conclusions based on what it is fed as information.


And there is the will. This is the head of all conscious activity, or at least it should be if you are using the mind correctly. The will is very powerful; however, it is often used for the wrong purpose. The will correctly used drives the other faculties of the conscious mind. It can be compared to the CEO of a Company.


So how many faculties do you have? And how well do use each one of them in the achievement of your goals? If you are serious about going after your goals in life, I can’t emphasize enough how important a better understanding of these faculties is to you.


If this does interest you, I recommend reading Napoleon Hill’s book, The Master Key to Riches. Another very good book, The Answer, was written by John Assaraf, one of the stars of the hit DVD, The Secret.


And I’ve gone into great detail to clearly explain the correct use of each of these faculties in my latest book, Manifest by design Now, available by clicking Here. This link will take you to my website Jeffrey Brandt Products.
