A very useful conditioning-based trick that will let you focus the power of your unconscious mind on whatever you want. Along with some general info on the unconscious mind. Good stuff.

Since this video is back in the algorithm, let me issue a clarification. As many of the comments correctly note - *_playing with ego can be a very dangerous game_* relative to your mental health. I mentioned this somewhat in passing in the video when I talked about utilizing punishment, but the main thing I regret about this video in retrospect is not emphasizing this further. Unless you are very in tune with your mental health and can recognize when to pull out if your psyche is in danger, stick to the "reinforcement" side of the conditioning (noting that this can include both positive and negative reinforcement), or you could do some serious damage to yourself (as happened to me).

Suggest that you really examine more deeply your long chain questioning technique It could be incredibly powerful if we use it wisely ! And it could lead to a deep questioning of the conventional life that most of us lead, And some questioning at least must be healthy. In fact your questioning technique could be evolved into writing a whole book on the spiritual application of this technique.

That's the brains way of keeping you in a continuous loop pattern. It prevents change and promotes the oh so familiar stuck cycle. You need to do the 54321 method that I learned from Mel Robbins and by doing that stops your sub conscious and activates your consciousness so that you can move forward with whatever it is you wanted to do since your subconscious is always in control you end up forgetting consciously that you were focusing on something and your subconscious goes back into work and then you try to be mindful about the same thing again and then you forget that you will be mindful of it it's that repeated pattern again that loop in the brain is definitely designed that way

That's true, but the real point to take away from this is that there's no way to permanantly avoid negativity. Negative feelings or emotions come and go just as sicknesses come and go and thunderstorms come and go. He's saying a lot without actually saying much. Just basically ->good feeling = being good at something. Which, is something that can't necessarily be verified as 'feelings' aren't something that can be measured and therefore not something that can be studied and proved. While It's true that being in a better *state* (physical, mental, etc.) can greatly influence the quality of production, emotions play an unreliable role in it. edit: Basically, "if you care about whatever it is that you're doing, you'll do a better job at it." Which is true, but it's not exactly a ground-breaking "hack" in "controlling the sub-conscious mind"

@John Doe To 'remove yourself from competition' is to remove yourself from reality. Because the reality is that there's simply not always enough for everyone to get what they want when they want it or need it. Or more aptly, If you're dealt a shit hand in life, or if you're part of the working class majority, *then* it starts to become a struggle to get what's really wanted/needed. Life is always a social/politics game and you can't just choose to "forfeit" it just because you don't agree with it. Otherwise how could people be able to survive?

It's just the way it is.

This is relatable to me. I am a 70 year old software engineer, and I love to solve problems. I don't actively think about it. Instead, I allow my "other mind" to do the "work". A smaller part of my mind can then memorialize the steps that my unconscious conceives as an elegant solution. At this point I have to convince stakeholders to buy into my solution. So unconscious pure thought must meld with practical gather-hunter politics. That is the real challenge. Multiple stakeholders on a panel can be extremely territorial.

In my bachelors degree program, I started strong and kept getting all A's. The more courses I finished, the more I became terrified of getting a B in a class and breaking the streak. The fear totally worked. As the courses got more advanced, I was automatically motivated to put in as much time and effort as necessary. I finished in February with a 4.0 GPA and all kinds of awards. A few weeks back, I saw a study that showed how focusing on the negative consequences of failure is far more effective than positive thinking when it comes to success. I consider myself living proof of that. But focusing on happy subconscious motivators is probably much healthier. 😆

To everyone else, take care of yourselves and please don't feel like you have to bend your subconscious minds around the intense desires of the modern world we live in. You may find that more happiness in life comes from finding what gives you peace rather than what is considered "productive" by everyone else

I started doing this thing when I was 12 years old. I'm 24 now. I was directing learning languages and performing high in education to my unconsciousness. I can tell you pros and cons. Pros: you really get good at stuff, it really works + you get really high on dopamine while doing it, it is enjoable and it feels like magic. Cons: I am in a psychological crisis for the past few years, and on therapy also (my relationships and values system got damaged because of it). And I didn't even know why I get anxious and want to run away every time I am not working towards what I taught my unconscious mind is necessary for survival. Thanks to therapy I remembered how I was experimenting with my brain when I was 12. Now I still didn't succeed in "undoing" this program, but realization brought me far. Wish me luck! And be careful with this one :)

​@@mrhitsjr4775 you only have as much time on your hand as anyone else. If you train your mind to the extreme where only achieving one thing will fulfill you, you may get really good at it. But you have disregarded everything else. Family isnt so important, friends, meaning of value becomes one dimensional and how you treat and see the world around you is based on that one value. In the real world you will be exposed to family events, school and so on. I think he talks about the anxiousness that arises when you see time spent with family and so on as "wasted" as it doesnt get you to your one dimensional ambition. maybe not in a literal sense but your subconscious mind feeds you those feelings anyways, as you trained it that anything but the one thing doesnt bring happiness. Maybe you could see it as opportunity cost. Any time spent not on the problem is a cost of attention time to the problem thus prolonging your achievement of your goal. Therefore an unsettling feeling and other everyday tasks seem like torture. A Capitalistic driven person feels anxiousness when cash flow is going down, not just when working but it affects you in every aspect of your life. What should you be careful about? I think he means that you shouldnt go too extreme into one single achievement while visualizing it. Certain other things have to be accounted for too. Social life, Family life, etc. Remember, you have responsibilities to others too, not only your own aspirations and that your "focused" work can influence your surrounding environment, the way your surrounding perceives you and how it treats you. you can not disregard your environment. --maybe explains why many geniuses have been socially so awkward and interacted so uniquely with their surroundings because they have made up their mind about what is important, and social norms were not one of them. But eventually most of them went a little crazy. Often miserable. I truly believe Colin is touching on the root of growing unhappiness in our workforce as many workers subconscious focus lies in the fear of losing the job. so in a way, through existential threat, companies force you to align your subconscious goal with their goal as achieving their goal directly correlates to your basic needs for survival. Now we can go a step further with marketing consumer goods. Ads of products and growing popularity of a product trains your subconscious that you want it. if you dont get it you wont feel the happiness. How do you afford the product? You do a good job and work for a salary increase. How? You fulfill the goals of the company. -> you engrain their goals as the way to your goals which in turn was subconsciously engrained in your brain by them. You dont follow your true ambitions but a set of artificially fed ambitions which brings anxiousness, depression, feeling of unfulfillment, feeling of failure, a feeling of never achieving your true ambitions, and not understanding why. This results in a added feeling of frustration. its a whole mix of emotions you cant make sense of, because you havent found your true ambitions. Self-awareness and finding out which of your actions for achieving ambitions are defined by external forces and which are true internal ambitions. IDK if im talkin shit but this is what i have found through many phases of self-reflection and drastic changes of focus in my life. It all might be misinterpreted, just food for thought.

Over the last few days, I’ve also realized that I need to get organized about my approach. The technique you share here adds a whole new layer, which is something I’ve also been struggling with, I’ve wanted to go deeper into the creative process. Thank you, I literally feel a beautiful shift! ❤❤❤

I think another important part of this process is actually trying to associate happiness with each individual step of what you want to do. I might start to associate happiness with making healthy smoothies in the morning, which can help me have a healthier diet, but I also have to associate happiness with the collection of ingredients and the time spent preparing the smoothie and the preparation to wake up early enough to make it. A simple task ends up having to be broken into 4 different steps that each have to be associated with happiness.

You can cut half the stuff out by buying frozen fruit in your weekly shop if you really wanted too. You don't need to wake up early to make it. Smoothies take 3 mins (depending on how nurtriant dense you want it) you can simply prepare it the night before slide it into the fridge. I don't believe making a smoothie is as complex as you're stating it will be if we follow what was suggested in the video. Maybe there's over analysis going on?

This is pretty insane. I used to love CS, I'd program as a hobby, and I solved many many things I was struggling on just with random flashes of insight. I remember a problem I was trying to debug for days until one day I got on a bus and the idea - no, not an idea, the fully fledged solution - just popped into my brain. I've lost that love and recently it's just been so hard to stay motivated, and it definitely feels like I've lost a part of myself. It actually feels like I'm just not as smart any more, and that's been pretty scary. I'm glad I came across this video to show me there's a path back to how I was.

Man I think I know your issue as programmer . The biggest problem tends to be we are not finding “exciting” problems like before which keep us engaged. It’s the boredom or problem we ain’t interested in. So here is my solution on top of what he says 1) remove the habits or things more fun than programming , like watching movie, playing video games etc . Anything u enjoy more, gotta go 2) start finding problem which you like to solve first , if you can’t find it , find as close to as possible . Take it from there 3) get on computer and start programming within 90 seconds of as soon as you wake up . Try these methods

This is an interesting insight. For example, i could have some hard/complex problem at hand and solve it while i'm asleep. I'm not consciously thinking about the problem while i am asleep, it's just on the background and i come up with a solution when i wake up. Somehow you can feel your brain rewiring things while you're asleep. The key here is to care so much you cannot think about anythig else, and also spend a lot of time (consciously) trying to solve it.

I feel like negative emotions are very risky. The subconscious mind is not a friend of negatives. It's much more effective to associate good outcomes with the task you are doing than fear of punishment if you don't do it. People will more likely become depressed and therefore do even less when they do not manage to solve the problem or complete the task at hand if they used the fear of failure as a motivation. Always bet on the carrot, not the stick.

​@@BartholomewRoberts17 what science are you talking about? The neurotransmitter of motivation is dopamine, which is associated with rewarding activities.

It's not a sustainable health or productivity mindset.

@@taihewuji2044 Yeah I never said to be fearful or stressed out all the time. You use that neural pathway in short bursts. For example, for a few minutes you can imagine how things in your life would be in the worst case scenario, like if you miserably failed at achieving all your goals. Also, the brain is way more complex than saying motivation purely comes from dopamine. Consistent focus, which is a big part of maintaining motivation, relies on both adrenaline and dopamine to flourish.

One part of Pavlov's experiment that isn't often talked about is what happened after his famous dog-salivating experience. When the dogs were presented with a more stimulating stimulus, the conditioned response no longer had an effect on the new stimulus, or there was a disruption. Therefore, I believe that the conditioned response you are trying to train your brain to feel (such as happiness from computer science or other areas) has a little more nuance, and you have to do it for quite some time to build that association over other stimuli that could overlap.

You are right about the "ideal" path to motivation. I think it's about figuring out ones' natural tendencies towards specific fields, but money is a consideration in real survivalistic situations. I love drilling down into the details of infrastructures so I eventually became a cyber security consultant, but finding leads as a freelance can be hard sometimes and stressing about it is extremely counter productive - so *timing* and *aligning* these motivations is a big deal for me. You can't stress about money trying to do what you love, so keeping your motivations within their relevant context is important.

If we haven't done something that we should have( like studying) we think about it and start feeling regret and fear of failure ( Negative emotions ) but that boosts us sometime to get up at that moment and start doing that thing sometimes. Like i sart doing pushups or start studying at night. So basically when u don't like doing the task , close your eyes relax back and start thinking the same way we think while trying ro sleep. That will trigger the emotions and give us fuel to start working. It works for me personally. I think about fear of failure as well as Ego and happiness all three.
