My Time To Quit – How Do You Do It?
All these suggestions are stored somewhere in your mind; “My time to quit smoking”. These suggestions then become the pillars for certain beliefs in your mind. Beliefs are very powerful and they work in our subconscious mind. This means that we don’t notice that they have an influence on our daily behavior. They do, however, and in a very convincing way.
Just as an example:
It was accepted for thousands of years that no human being could run a mile under four minutes. So, for ages and ages, nobody did. Until there was an athlete called Roger Bannister who ran the mile in 3:59! Amazing!
What is more amazing is the fact that within the year, Bannister changed the limiting belief of the four-minute mile; several other athletes broke that so-called impossible barrier. Shows you just how powerful a belief can be. Notice that this was also a belief, created by suggestions and brainwashing of society and peer groups.
Human behavior is guided by the beliefs you have. Your brain is constantly asking two questions: When I do this, will it give me pleasure or pain?
What should I do to avoid pain and gain pleasure?
Your brain is looking for answers and these answers are given by the beliefs you have developed through the years. These are generalizations, things you have accepted to be true. You have given a certain meaning to things and events and these are going to determine your behavior. You could say a belief is a kind of feeling of certainty about the meaning of something, for example, fire is hot. This is a general belief most people share.
How have you arrived at this belief? By having enough references and experiences to support it? You can compare a belief to a tabletop with legs under it. It’s the legs that support the tabletop. These legs are the references and experiences you have in your life.
When we now go back to smoking, you have formed beliefs based on suggestions you get from our society, both smoking and non-smoking society. Apart from these suggestions, what else makes you believe your belief? Is there something else that enforces the beliefs or illusions you already have?
See you soon,
