Thoughts

Few minutes ago, i was researching on a psychological problem, Schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe and disabling disease.(if you want to know more, do read it up on websites. Try googling it). When i was reading information about it, i thought to myself this, "what if...what if someone around me has it? what would i do?" It all voice down to what I believe in.

French mathematician, physicist and philosopher BLAISE PASCAL (1623-1662) said that "Man greatness lies in his power of thoughts". If you are having a problem such as Schizophrenia, and you dont realise it, will that make you less greater than others? Will that make you insignificant?


I realise that our thoughts can change the destiny of our lives. If we allow ourselves to be drowned with negative thoughts, obviously, we are being led by the nose and down into the river. Today, that is what happened to me. I led myself to believe that i'm being very weak by doing the things that I did, instead of standing out of the box, and discover that what I did was considered a good will to another.


Well, i always like to tell people about the story of the man who work is related to railway. The story goes like this. A man, who is an engineer of trains(assume to be a railway type of train), will always tell himself at the start of his day that when he see someone who accidentally fall into the railway track, he will save that individual. As days passed, it sipped into his subconscious mind. One day, while waiting for the train to go home after work, a boy fell down to the track and a train was approaching. Without even thinking, the man jumped down and shield the boy with his entire body directly above the boy, while the others at the railway station, they are astound, shocked and while some scream and did nothing, others called for help. However, it was too late. the train couldn't stop in time and it just went on and on. Everyone at the train station was devastated. A minute passed. The man stood up. Both the boy and himself are alright. Why is this so? Firstly, the man knew everything about trains. So he knew about the gap in between trains and the dimensions that he is allowed to maneuver with. However, all this will not work if he did not instill it in his subconcious mind. When asked about why he jumped and save the boy, he couldn't give a direct answer. It was all because of his subconscious. Consciously, day after day, whatever he told himself, that goes into his subconscious.


Our conscious mind can process 16 bits of information per second, our unconscious however can process 11 million. So, if we kept telling ourself that we are a failure, obviously, we will be. The power of thoughts.
