http://mindpersuasion.com/ Humans come with some pretty amazing software, but it can sometimes get in the way. Here's how to get yourself an upgrade. http://mindpersuasion.com/selfconfidence/

2. Often times I'll be getting ready for
bed, and I'll go to shut off my laptop.

3. Then Windows tells me I've got to wait
for more than ten updates before it
shuts down.

4. Thanks Windows!

5. Since shutting down my laptop is the
last thing I until I hit the sack, it kinds
of throws a monkey wrench into my
big plans!

6. I've also got a couple other pieces of
software that kind of fire off on their
own.

7. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't be
without these.

8. One is an anti-virus checker, and one is
an automatic backup.

9. I had a computer crash many years ago
and lost TONS of data. Never again.

10. While they do seem to fire off at the
absolute wrong times, they are pretty
amazing.

11. Those dudes and gals who design all
this software know that most of us are
pretty lazy, and if it didn't update
automatically, it never would.

12. Our brains are sort of the same way,
but not really.

13. On the one hand, our brains are way
more advanced that humans a few
hundred thousand years ago.

14. So our brains do kind of "manually
update," just like Windows, only the
process is very, very slow.

15. At least the automatic process.

16. The reality is that your brain is much
more under you control that you
realize.

17. But since nobody ever teaches how to
do this in school, we assume our brain
are fixed.

18. Now, there ARE plenty of types of folks
who benefit from this.

19. Politicians, advertisers, con artists, etc.

20. Which is why often times the "powers
that be" would much rather us stay
with our factory programming.

21. If we are unaware, and prone to fear
and anxiety, we're much easier to
control, and sell stuff to.

22. As I'm sure you're aware, creating fear
is a great way to sell a product, get
votes, make sure you slip a couple of
extra bills into the collection basket at
church, etc.

23. The good news is that you don't need
to keep relying on your factory
settings.

24. You can rewrite the wiring in your
brain.

25. Instead of feeling anxious and nervous
when going into new situations, you
can feel relaxed and confident.

26. Now, it's not as easy a waiting around
for a few extra minutes before you go
to sleep while your brain downloads
the latest updates, but it's pretty darn
close.
