Conviction of The Human Mind

How many times do you think a person has to try in order to do one thing right? Guess what, the answer is 3 times.

Have you heard a saying that if you sneezed 3 times, it means someone somewhere is thinking about you? And more often than not, you would have to sneeze 3 times in order to really clear your nasal.

Why 3 times? The first time, The Human Mind thought it's just some minor irritation. It doesn't want to put in extra effort to clear it, just in case it was right. But it's wrong. It goes on to activate the Second Sneeze. What do you know? The irritation still persisted. Now that the first one doesn't work, The Human Mind uses The Second Sneeze to calibrate for amount of lung power it needs to provide for The Third Sneeze.

A leopard doesn't change its spots, and Human doesn't change the way He sneezes.

The subconscious mind

I am listening to this audio book about how we can draw on infinite wisdom, from our subconscious mind. I stumbled upon this idea that what we consciously know that we know, may be so insignificant as compared to what our subconscious know, but we may not know we know.... ( sounds confusing, I know, but it maybe a new break through in human performance thinking)

Imagine this, you are chatting on msn one night on your laptop and suddenly you heard a loud bang below your flat. Immediately you know it's a car accident. Why? Because you heard of this type of sound before and your vision confirmed it to be a car accident. So now the second time you hear this sound, you know it's an accident.
This is an example of how a conscious effort become a subconscious effort.

The second time that the person hear the sound, the person can react instantaneously what is the sound about: subconscious mind act independently of one thing that great hindered the conscious mind, and that is Time.

We need time to think about a smell, we need time to catch what a person is saying, we need to taste a food, we need time to say what we want to say, we need time to express an emotion. However, the subconscious mind do not need time to process and react. You should have also notice why a 5 mins dream feel like an hour has passed. This maybe because time to the subconscious is a relative thing.

Now the question is how to exploit this subconscious mind. I am thinking if we can go to sleep with audio books reading to us at 100x normal speed. If we can trigger our mind to accept this method, we can read few a couple of books in our sleep and wake up with tons of usable knowledge which we can immediately apply.

Any comments?
