It is generally accepted
that we all have a conscious mind
and a unconscious mind.
The conscious mind makes up only 10% of the mind and that manages our thought processes, logical thought and all things rational.
The subconscious mind stores 90% and that includes beliefs, habits, cultural norms, personality, self image and lots of other things such as memory.
In-between both those minds is a gap which holds a filter system which is like a software in our mind. It scans all incoming and outgoing data and decides which is important, or not, and sends the information to the conscious mind or the unconscious.
Last year I did a blog about 'Filters and I have just done a search and drop here again::
Our life has ethos-filters which influence our language and behaviour
that stuff about
"you are beautiful"
is one of my filters
I suppose I believe that what we believe,
hold as principles,
have as self-guidelines .............
they are filters when it comes to::
communication
our 2 languages
- verbal
- body
lifestyle
attitude
- to our own interior
- to others
- to the community/society we live in
- to the comos - the planet we live in
- to the eternal significance which we all have some contact with ....
behaviour
need and greed
taker or maker
read
or don't read
view or don't view
quantity more-or-less
live or don't live
dwell or don't dwell
tent pitching place - or following betterment of self.
Filters don't change our feelings
but
do influence the decisions we make when we get signals from our feelings.
(Feelings are neutral - neither good nor bad)
they are just real.
Training ourselves to be in touch with them
and putting them through the filters
is what makes the Road Less Travelled beautiful
but
still
beautiful imperfection
These are just some of my filters - offered as a stimulus to you and myself.
I am keen to keep my list active because I must be missing some foundational ones.
My computermind needs reprogramming ............
One big filter::
-You are beautiful-
