Willpower – The Discipline Of Urge & Impulse Control For Ultimate Self-Discipline & Success! What’s MOVING you to do what you do, in the way you do it, making your life the way it is? No matter how it may appear on the surface, OTHER PEOPLE AND OUTER CIRCUMSTANCES ARE NOT DICTATING YOUR COURSE THROUGH LIFE! If you KNEW and UNDERSTOOD the NATURE of what’s both pushing you around and pulling your strings, you would possess the answer to a secret so powerful it would change your life forever, giving you unlimited inner strength, independence, self-discipline, willpower, and personal magnetism. But again, KNOWING IS NOT ENOUGH – you have to UNDERSTAND THE NATURE OF THE FORCES DRIVING YOU! That’s where brain training comes in, to put you in direct, conscious contact with an objective of SELF-MASTERY.

Why are we so often compelled to do what we know we shouldn’t, while failing to do what we know we really should? What fundamental forces creep unseen beneath our conscious awareness, whispering in conflict like a demon on one shoulder and an angel on the other shoulder, arguing back and forth? We’ll talk about the NATURE OF URGES AND COMPELLING IMPULSES, their connection to ATTENTION, THOUGHT, and EMOTION – and we’ll talk about what proper mental fitness training can do to utterly change your relationship to Impulses and Urges so that they take on their proper role as SIGNALS to help you succeed, as opposed to being insidious, hidden taskmasters that betray your genuine Will.

Brain Training For Mental Focus – Do You Know How To THINK “EFFECTIVELY”?

Are you playing brain games yet getting nowhere in life, feeling stuck in neutral with the same habits and results? What good playing with brain games if they do not teach you how to play the greatest game of all – that which is occurring in your own mind even as you read this? Mental power has nothing to do with the ability to perform parlor tricks for the amusement of others or yourself, but is instead a measure of how EFFECTIVE you are at controlling and applying the AFFECTS of Thought itself for maximum EFFECT in your life. By “AFFECTS OF THOUGHT” I mean the subjective, three-dimensional experience of any thought related to the CONTENT within the thought. The content of a thought (both imagery and emotional ‘feel’) can incite physiological impulses throughout the body, resulting in subjective experience that has either an attractive or repulsive EFFECT.

Losing Your Mind – Researchers Say Smoking Makes Your Brain Smaller And You Weaker!

A further issue I take with the study results as presented is that the supposed “link” they’ve established between smoking and damage to the brain’s impulse control centers should be evidenced by a universal reduction or lack of self-control in pretty much every area of a smoker’s life. If the impulse control areas of the brain are damaged by smoking, then every long-term smoker should be headed to prison at some point or another, and the longer they smoke, the more unpredictable, out-of-control, and perhaps dangerous they should become. Rather than take it upon themselves to initiate efforts to find actual proof of the asserted link, researchers are going to do another similarly weak study on the effects on the brain after quitting smoking. It would be a great study if they would FIRST PROVE THEIR INITIAL CLAIM.

There’s no amount of gaming you can do to overcome inferior feelings in social situations, but you CAN TRAIN YOUR ATTENTION and your THOUGHTS so that you are never again bothered by persistent, self-sabotaging ideas. You can goof around at Luminosity for a thousand years and never once will you suddenly find yourself with the personal power you need to go after a goal that has intimidated you into procrastination. Yet, you can train your thoughts to contain only the content that moves you forward; you can train your emotions to lift you up, and you can recondition your physical impulses to crave the thing so excitedly that nothing can stop you from making excellent progress. All the while, you will be improving your mental concentration, building better mental focus, and strengthening your mental discipline as you enhance your brain health and brain fitness. We’re going to discuss how to make sure your thoughts are not lethal to your Will. Listening to this episode could make the difference between your suffering through a life of subdued desperation vs. your daring to taking a leap of faith into a grand adventure that will truly fulfill you!
COGNITIVE HOMEOSTASIS is your enemy. The obstacles in your mind are just conditioned noise, handed to you by someone else who didn’t know any better. There’s no reason for you to remain as mentally oppressed by it as the cognitive slave who recruited you to share the chain that has enslaved others down through the centuries.

Thought Control Training – When Your Thoughts Are Lethal To Your Will

There is only one force on Earth that can subjugate your Will, and that is an Idea that passes itself off as your own voice, imitating your Will, but which is really just another mechanical bit of chatter that arises in your imagination at the very prospect of your daring to be more adventurous than your brain would like. Just conditioned noise, handed to you by someone else who didn’t know any better, and now you are as mentally oppressed by it as the cognitive slave who recruited you to share the chain that has enslaved others down through the centuries. Yet you have the advantage. You are reading this. This is a different Idea – a key to unlock bonds that, in actuality, don’t even exist.
