This is the anatomy of our mind.

Most of us, as a normal person, will only think by using our conscious mind, without knowing the power of our Subconscious mind. There are three major factors in our mind that we need to know, our Conscious Mind, Subconsious Mind, and the critical factor.

The conscious mind is where we hold our temporary memory and our will power. That is why our will power tend to dies in time. We store our short term memory in our conscious mind. This is also our rational and radical portion of our mind. This is where we retionalize our actions, like smoking and eating too much although subconsciously, we know it is bad for us. This is where we do our calculations.

Also, In the conscious mind is where the Critical Factor Filter located. The Critical Factor Filter is the one that judges and filter everythings that entered our conscious mind through and judges whether it is appropriate or inappropriate to retain in our mind.

Subconsious mind is made of emotions, and it cannot judge or filter anything that goes into it. It will absorb everything that we received either by senses or by thoughts. If you repeatedly tell yourself that you are not good enough, over and over again, the subconscious mind will make you believe that you are not good enough, and your emotional will follow suit. The same thing will happen when you keep telling yourself that you are smart, and it will make you believe that you are smart. The same goes to small children too, when we keep telling them that they are not good enough, over and over again, they will believe that they are not good enough, and they will give up easily and will have low self-esteem.

Similarly when we pray to God. We speak to God with our inner soul, heart and emotions of our subconscious mind. And when we do it repeatedly, everyday and everytime, by God's willing, our prayers will be answered.

I've read this book on the power of subconscious mind, and I have experimented on it a long time ago, and by the True Graceful of Allah, my prayers have been answered. And now, I never stop praying and asking God for His guidance and happiness, and I've got it.

The most important thing is, stop telling yourself that you are not good enough, because the only thing that stop you from being happy, is yourself. Stop being inferior about yourself, and start being happy. Positive thinking, makes positive and happy people.
