An Intentional Change of Characteristic Mind Patterns
A new concept came to me today, and it all started out in a rather funny way.
"When you get to the second stop light, make sure you turn right." My boss said as she handed me the night deposit bag. "Okay." I said and headed out the door. I didn't give much thought to her comment until I got to my car. "Why would she tell me to turn right, its not like I don't already know how to get to the bank."I thought. I started my truck and pulled out of the parking lot. I drove across the over pass and into town. I went through the first light with out thinking about it, but when I got to the second stop light, I found myself pondering her comment. “I could go strait, that would take me to the Freeway, and I could go right, to the bank.” I thought. The realization that I had about twelve thousand dollars in my lap hit me like a truck at that moment. It became clear, I could keep going, and never look back, at least not for a long while, or I could turn, take the money to the bank, and do the "Right" thing. Before I knew it I was sitting in front of the bank. There was no way I could have done it. But the fact that she even mentioned it, proved to me in that one second that she had done her thinking on the subject as well.
The thought of going strait and to the freeway would never in a million years entered my mind, unless it was put there.
I wonder how many of the choices we make are influenced this way, with out our knowing. It could be a random comment, or bit of data put into our minds by the sub conscience or worse another person. This could be a potentially terrible power if someone could knowingly put ideas into someone's mind and get results in the form of uncharacteristic actions. I'll have to try it and see if it is possible. I will write back on the subject soon.......
