Habits 2 Goals: The Habit Factor® Podcast with Martin Grunburg The Subconscious Mind
“Everything is hard before it is easy." ~Goethe
Why do humans possess a subconscious mind?
In season two, we covered the subconscious mind relative to the "Super-Conscious". In today's episode, we wonder why the subconscious mind exists.
As science is about studying "things" that can be measured and observed, some scientists may even argue the subconscious mind or even the "mind" itself, does not exist.
MG speculates otherwise and reiterates the important distinction between the mind and the brain, an idea covered in The Habit Factor® (book).
Unlike animals born with "instincts", humans are endowed with the capacity to program their subconscious with new habits and skills.
Not unlike a computer programmer, we can write a script (with intention and practice) that automates a behavior or skill over time.
The process to program the subconscious with a new habit or skill—is by following P.A.R.R. (Plan, Act, Record & Reassess).
As humans develop new skills and habits the behaviors ascend through the various levels of competence (Wikipedia) and, over time become more habit-like.
No other animal in the world can intentionally learn and align new skills and habits to their goals and ideals.
Enjoy the episode!
