Affirmation

Faith, the ultimate in affirmation. Faith is two sided first we are given a principle to believe in then we apply ourselves to that principle at the level in which we do believe.
Affirmation. The subconcious mind, the direction of the soul. The weakness of this muscle for most is amazing. I will put to you that it is truely a muscle. The weight program is what we as the captain conciously feed it. Where does God fit into the picture? The picture is not complete without an outside influence on what we choose to feed the subconcious. Think about it in this fashion. . .
If I am always watching one thing on television and only one thing that is the sports channel what is my mind set on Sports right? Nope the watching of sports. You see if you have not acted on that which you take on it sits on your mind and your concious is aware but you do not reap the rewards of an athelete. The more sports that you watch and do nothing about the more you actually weaken you ability eventually over time in fact. The confidence you have in your own ability weakens over the space of time as you see the greats apply. Why do kids get better and better in sports at such a rapid rate?
Have you ever listened into there playground basketball games. They have gone out and applied the training. They don't simply watch the highlight reel they become the highlight reel. The guy wearing the hockey shirt that barely fits around his stomach because he has gotten so inactive since the 'glory days' fails to understand this truth. He probably still misses very few games but now as a spectator he is stimulating his subconcious with affirmations of grandeur and then it's over because as he gets up late at night after the game with the beer or even soda in his hand and potatoe chips and other manners of bad food the reality hits his concious, he is out of shape and as a continuous signal sent to his subconcious mind with the sports they combine and say you are an out of shape athelete. Then the interpretation the 'glory days' are gone now I live my life as a spectator is now programed. As an endless cycle it re-affirms.
This is rampant today. The majority of High School graduates, for example never pick up a book and read ever again. This is so scarey. Can you imagine the combination of the above sports for the former student. Those were the 'glory days' of my learning. I now gain my knowledge through the bits and peices I get from peoples oppinions, from the media whose agenda is not to educate, and through societies icons. Wow what a way to feed the mind, no wonder people can appear asleep in there comfort zone of complacency.
To overcome, is to return tommorow. . .
