    Episode 74 Mid Life Mommy Stickman and Mind Model review

    Okay... Here's our big review! Imagine Stickman wants to learn how to play basketball. First, his conscious mind becomes aware: "I want to become a better basketball player." Then he creates a new idea: "I could practice shooting baskets every day." But suddenly an old subconscious program says: "I'm not very good at sports." Now Stickman has a choice. His conscious mind can accept that thought... Or reject it. He might say: "Maybe I'm not very good YET, but I can learn." That's a new thought. If he repeats that thought and connects it with determination and hope, he's beginning to feed a different program. Then what does he need? His body. He picks up the basketball. He moves his feet. He uses his hands. He practices. His thought becomes... An action. And if he takes that action consistently... He can begin getting different results. Do you see how all three work together? 🧠 Conscious mind. 🧠 Subconscious mind. 🏃 Body. That's our Mind Model! 🎮 MIND MODEL CHALLENGELet's finish with a game. I'm going to say something, and you decide which part of the Mind Model it belongs to. Ready? Noticing birds singing outside. Awareness! Deciding whether something means good or bad. Adding meaning! Saying, "No, I don't want to keep that thought." Accept or reject! Inventing a brand-new game. Creating new ideas! Your heart beating while you're asleep. Automatic life-sustaining functions! Your body reacting when it senses danger. Alive and safe! Knowing the alphabet without thinking about every letter. Subconscious program! Learning something because you've heard it again and again. Repetition! Your hands building something you imagined. The body as a tool of the mind! Smiling when you're excited. Behavior! Feeling butterflies in your stomach when you're nervous. Your mind and body working together! Getting up and practicing something because you have a goal. ACTION! You did it! 🌟 YOUR DAILY CHALLENGEToday, I want you to notice your own Mind Model working. See if you can catch yourself: Being aware. Adding meaning. Accepting or rejecting a thought. Creating an idea. Running an old program. Feeling an emotion in your body. Or taking an action. You don't have to judge what you notice. Just become aware of it. Because the more you understand how your mind works... The better you can learn to use it.
