Getting People to Think Whatever You Want Them to Think

Posted on July 15, 2014 by toolsofsuccess

Use of Clever Adverts

The idea of getting people to think whatever you want then to think can suggest many moral questions. The first is it right to get other people to think what you want them to think? And Could it have harmful future effects for you and the other person? Indeed it could give you an unpleasant feeling knowing that the thoughts that you thought were your own actually were from someone else. If you look at the media and the clever adverts that are made in-order to get people to purchase their goods, you could wonder if clever psychology is being used in-order to get you to buy their products.

The Power of Advertising And TV

Could it be a fact that the people who produce advertisement employ the best psychologist when making their adverts. And could they be using a drip,drip effect in-order to get you to make a purchase. This may be by the idea of keeping their products in your awareness, with clever jingles etc. Do they appeal to your emotions and use your emotional needs as a way to get you to make a purchase. If you look at why you may buy one item of sports wear compared to another. Did you see your favorite sports personality wearing that item of clothing. Or maybe they suggested that you would become cooler or you might be more attractive to other people. Do they show children’s products at times when your children will be watching the TV?

The Power of the Internet

Think about the last time you purchased goods or services on the internet. What were the things that caused you to buy the product or service? Were you educated about a problem that you had that you were not aware of, and did they educate you about the various solutions to the problem. May be they presented you with a solution that they could give to solve your problem.

And did they offer you a money back guarantee if their solution or product did not work? Was there a time limit, and they stated you had to buy today or you would have to pay a much higher price? Finally did they drop the price and offer you a number of bonuses to get you to enter your credit card details? Does this sound familiar could this be one of the methods that is used to get you to think that you need to purchase a product. Perhaps it was something that you did not think of purchasing until you read the long page of information.

Conclusion

Many people could be trying to get you to think a certain way during the day. Many of them could be advertisers who are using clever psychology in-order to get you to buy their products and services. Some may be trying to appeal to your emotions in-order for them to get you to make purchases. So should you be more aware of the ways that sellers may influence you? – Thoughts To Make You Think.

Tips For Reading People’s Thoughts

Posted on June 15, 2014 by toolsofsuccess

To Read the Thoughts

The idea of reading the thoughts of other people, has been one of those things that has been a topic of discussion for many years. Indeed reading other people’s thoughts is one of those things that everyone has encountered many times during life. Many times you may have been thinking about a close friend or a loved one, and the next thing is that they call you on the phone or visit you. It could be easy to call things like this coincidence but if we consider that there may be more to this universe than meets the eye. So what is the truth about reading other people’s thoughts? And is it possible to read the thoughts of another person?

The Power of Communication

It has been said that when you speak, the words only communicate a small percentage of the information. Some of the more important aspects are tone of the voice and body language. Indeed the tone of a persons voice and body language can show when someone is lying. Have you noticed when a person is lying they find it hard to make eye contact, so this points to the fact that spoken communication is not the only way that we communicate. Have you looked at the way that birds fly in perfect formation even though we do not perceive them communicating. So do we have the ability to communicate on a psychic level? And could it be the case that we all have the capacity to communicate on a psychic level?

What Can We Learn From The Near Death Experience?

There was a story of a man who had a near death experience when he was 16 years of age, but had an interesting story about his experience. Following the event he appeared to become more psychic, so when people asked him how did he become psychic he gave this answer. He said that you do not become psychic, you are psychic and you choose to forget you are psychic to make this earth experience more realistic. So could this suggest that we may have the ability to communicate using thought communication, and is this a skill that we can develop? And perhaps we may even be able to develop this by using methods like meditation. I have personally found that I have been able to pick up vague thoughts from my children following meditation. So does psychic abilities have links to the ability to read the thoughts of other people.

Good Relationships

It has been found that when people are in close harmony they tend to pick up the thoughts that each other is thinking, this tends to suggest the importance of having a good and close positive relationship. In N L P the suggestion is that by exercises such as matching breathing two people are able to build rapport. So the idea of reading the mind of another person could possibly be initiated by some form of mental permission giving. If this is the case then the idea of reading the thoughts of another person may be associated with the building of trusted relationships. So have you experienced thinking about a close friend and then being contacted by them, and have you found that a close friend has been thinking the same thought that you have been thinking. – Thoughts To Make You Think.

Will Right Living Promote a Healthy Life

Posted on May 1, 2014 by toolsofsuccess

It has been suggested that righteousness can lead to the praise of a nation but sin or evil acts is a reproach to any people. Looking at that statement could suggest that righteousness is the opposite of sin. Could thinking in-pure thoughts on a regular basis do damage, and by the same token could thinking pure thoughts lead to a healthier life. Consider how you feel after you have experienced a time of anger, has the time of anger caused any damage to your body or mind? Can lustful thoughts over a prolonged period of time do damage to the mind? If we consider that when a person smokes cigarettes over a long period of time may lead to illness. So if a person has lustful thoughts over a long period of time, could harm or damage be done to the mind or to the body?

Effects of Stress

There have been research conducted regarding stress which have associated stress with illness, this could point to the idea that some illnesses may be in fact caused my stress. If this is true then if you had less stress could mean that you could reduce your chances of being ill. Also could stress be linked to the things that you are thinking about. For example there was a story about a man who used the money of the company that he worked for with out their permission. He lost the money and was in a hotel, he was heard to say the shame is going to kill me. If fact in 3 days the man was dead. Could the thoughts that you have affect your life?

Do healthy Good Thoughts improve life

If we say that thinking stressful thoughts on a regular basis could lead to illness. Then this could suggest that thinking less stressful thoughts could lead to better health. A question that could be asked is could corrupt thoughts lead to illness, and could pure wholesome thoughts improve the health? One writer suggested that it is good to have a time of laughter on a regular basis could help to keep the mind and body healthy. There was a story told by a lady who said that she recovered from cancer by watching funny films and she did not use any other therapy. So could it be the case that right thinking could help in keeping the body healthy.

Avoiding the need to Worry

Would it be useful to arrange your life in such a way so that you could avoid unnecessary worrying. For example instead of buying an expensive car that would mean you would have to work 20 hours a day to pay for it. Could it be less stress to buy a car that you can pay for without working any extra time. Is it the case that most of the problems that are caused in you life are due to decisions that you take? There is a principle of “Cause and Effect” that indicates that the things that you do now will have an effect on the things that happen in your life. If this is true then this can mean that we could avoid some of the problems that occur in life by making better choices.

Does right thinking improve life

It was found that it takes 30 days to develop a new habit. If this is the case could it be possible to develop the habit of right thinking by practicing this for 30 days. And would you get vast benefits if you were to develop the habit of right thinking? Also what does right thinking mean to you, and what would developing better right thinking mean to you?

Life with Purpose

Having a clear purpose in life could be seen as the product of having a clear desire. Once you are clear about the things that you want in life you can then make clear steps to achieving those desires.

But to be agile and to remain agile could be thought to take regular effort and disciplined exercise. The need of commitment would also be high up on the list of things that needed doing. So to be physically agile requires qualities, so the same could be thought of in the field of mental agility.

The means of making your mind agile

Indeed just as with physical agility, mental agility could require exercise on a regular basis. So what are the exercises that could be needed to allow you to be mentally agile.

Is It Important to Have Faith?

Posted on March 1, 2014 by toolsofsuccess

Why is it important to Have Faith

If you look at people who tend to achieve the things they desire in life you would notice that they have a number of things in common. The fact is that if you do certain things in certain ways you will get certain results.

Quick Decisions

It was found that the habit of making quick decisions and sticking to those decisions was one of the 16 things that allows a person to be successful in life. This was discovered by Napoleon Hill in a study of 500 self-made millionaires over a period of 20 years. Self confidence and faith in your abilities were also found to be things that led people to find success in life.

The Way We Think

The thoughts that a person has on a regular basis can have a very powerful impact on a person’s life. It has been said by some writers that thoughts are things. Experiments have actually measured thought waves, and the idea of thoughts passing from one person to another should not be strange. Have you notice that you can detect when a person is confident or fearful. Even animals seem to sense fear in a person. So the idea of thoughts transferring from one person to another should not be strange. Think about the times you have been thinking about a friend and the next thing that happens is that they contact you.

Creating Your Life By Your Thoughts

Writers like George Plummer have commented on the idea that we are creating the things that happen in our lives by virtue of the thought forms that we hold in our mind. This could be why it is important not to see yourself as sick or in a state of illness, but see yourself living a healthy life. It has been suggested that whatever you think about with strong feeling you attract to yourself. Plummer says that the mental image or thought would be attracted to the physical manifestation in the physical world. It could be the case that we are creating the things that happen in our life by virtue of the thoughts that we are holding on a regular basis.

Why is faith So Important

It has been suggested that without faith it is impossible to achieve many things in life. In fact Napoleon Hill said in his book “Think and grow Rich” that faith is one of the 13 things that allows a person to find success in life. Also linked to faith is confidence which Hill says is also one of the things that brings success in life. So do you think that it is important to have faith? And have you found that you achieve more in life by having faith in your abilities? Thoughts To Make You Think –

Mind Development – How to Unlock the Hidden Power of the Mind

Posted on February 15, 2014 by toolsofsuccess

Unseen Power of the Mind

The ability to unlock the hidden, unseen power of the mind could be the secret that has allowed success to many of the most successful people around the world. Indeed the ability to achieve the desires of your heart at will, could be one of the greatest gifts that you could acquire. But is there a price in unlocking the hidden power of the mind. It was once said that an apple could give the ability to be as a God and understand good and evil, but with that story the people seemed to have been deceived. They also appeared to have lost more than they seemed to have gained. So how can you unlock the hidden powers of the mind, and is the price worth the ability?

The Act of Studying Hard

The idea of studying hard and getting a good education which may lead to a good job, has been the story taught to children for many generations. But for many people this story line did not lead to the joy that they desired in life. Indeed the gold at the end of the tunnel may in-fact lead to more misery than you may originally expect. The idea of unlocking hidden power may seem a wonderful idea, but could it in-fact be something that could be very dreadful. Maybe it is the case the powers were hidden for a good reason, and unlocking them could open up the proverbial can of worms. So a good thought might be what is the hidden power of the mind, and will it add greater value to your life?

Use of Power for Good or Bad

The idea of power in the hands of someone who does not have the skill to use power could be very destructive. So this could lead to the idea that in order to use certain power you may need to develop the necessary skills first. And how long should it take to acquire the skills required? Imagine a person who has not acquired the recommended skills for using great mind power. It could be dangerous to them and also to the people around them. Consider someone working with acid to unblock a drainage system, you would need to be trained how to safely work with the acid. Once you have passed the required qualifications for working with acid, only then could you be certified to work with it. So in order to receive the key to hidden powers of the mind, would first mean that you may need to achieve the first step, which is a prerequisite before being set loose with a very powerful key.

Conclusion

There is a saying which states when the student is ready the master will appear. If you can answer that you may be ready for the key. – Thoughts To Make You Think.

A Time To Be

Posted on February 1, 2014 by toolsofsuccess

Life can be a rush to and from work, you may also be working towards getting qualifications in order to live the life of your dream. There could be a wide variety of reasons why you may want to achieve the things you desire in life; but do you have time just to “be”?

What could it mean to “be”, perhaps this could be time at the beginning of the day and at the end of the day when you have your personal space, may be a time when you can reflect on the direction that your life is taking. If we consider that people who tend to get to where they want in life could in fact know where they are going. Mr Hill in his book “Think and Grow Rich” spoke about “organised plans” as one of the things that can assist a person in finding success in life. So it could be important to plan time to allow you to reflect and work out the direction in your life.

A Balanced Life

It could be said that it is important to have good balance in life. If you consider the body, if the body works continually without rest, the body could end up becoming ill. So the fact that rest is needed is an essential part of life. If you consider machinery you would notice that if it is used continually without maintenance it could eventually become damaged. So even with your body you need to take time for maintenance. This could be time to eat well, rest, sleep and recreation just like a machine the body must be looked after.

Cause and effect

It has been noted by a number of thinkers that the things that you do in your life will have an effect on the things that happen in your life. The person who is healthy becomes healthy due to the habit of doing healthy things. For example the food you eat will have an effect on your body, and the way you think will allow you to take certain actions. So it is essential that you consider the things that you are doing as this will have an effect on the things that happen in your life. If you ever become ill it could be useful to ask yourself this question, what is my body trying to tell me? It may be that you need to change some of the things that you are doing in life. So look at what you are currently doing and consider that effect that those things may be having on your life.

Reflection

So could it be useful to spend some time during your day or week to reflect on how your life is going, time to think about ensuring that you are not doing things that could have a harmful effect on your life. It has been said that meditation is a useful way to focus the mind and to build concentration. It has been said by a number of writers that meditation is useful in achieving more from life. So could meditation be a useful way to reflect on the things happening in your life.

So would it be useful for you to set aside time during your day just to be, time to appreciate the things you have achieved so far in life. A time to enjoy the moment. –  Thoughts to Make you Think –
