Default Discouragement and will power


You have to actively work on your subconscious mental programming and
your motivation. If you don't do that but you try to use your will
power anyway, then you are fighting a losing battle against the
programming, emotions, and impulses that are in your subconscious
mind.

I listen to hypnosis recordings about losing weight. I listen to
affirmation recordings about loving to exercise. I also visualize that
I have achieved my weight loss goas and how great that feels. All
these things are for programming your subconscious mind to lose
weight. Then your conscious mind can simply carry out the impulses
that the subconscious gives it to diet and exercise. Your conscious
mind doesn't have to fight your subconscious mind through "will
power." I have to keep listening to my audio recordings on a frequent
basis, because their effect on me fades within a few days.

I think will power really doesn't work for very long at all. Will
power always seems to break before long if that's all you rely on. If
you want to change your behavior, you have to reprogram your
subconscious and you have to use techniques such as goal setting and
visualization to highly motivate yourself. That's what it's all about,
not will power.

To make your body and mind feel good and function well, you need
plenty of high nutrient fruits and vegetables and lean meats. And you
need nutritional supplements. The most important one is fish oil. I
also take a lot of others. I think the essential supplements you must
take every day are Fish oil and vitamin D for health and chromium
piccolinate for fat burning. I also take green tea extract to keep up
my metabolism. So those are the minimum pills I have to take each day.
I have a bunch of others but I don't take them every day because it's
kind of a hassle to take a lot of pills. I don't use any drugs though.
I only use nutritional supplements.
