In the famous book by Russell Conwell says, “The human beings are constantly searching elsewhere for things they have it in hand”. There have been tones of literature about the power of human mind. It is an entity that is within us but have les grasped over it. Nobody knows what exactly the powers of human mind are and there is no machine to measure the powers of mind.

Your belief systems determine your success. How? Because with beliefs that keep you shackled you cannot progress. Imagine a woman who is told that her only role in life is to reflect the needs of her husband. As there are many cultures like this there are many women who will remain under the thumb of their patriarchal society. They will never be leaders or people who will improve life for themselves or other women or the people of their society. They will never create art or find a cure for sickness. Their role has been set out for them and there is no digression from it. The men believe they are lower class citizens valued just behind their livestock – and the women believe it also. They believe so strongly that they would be prepared to fight you if you disagreed with their degrading second class treatment. (Similar behaviour can also be found amongst women suffering domestic violence).

The brain is one of the classic examples of God’s creativity. The functioning of brain is now an unfolded mystery. We now know that brain produces electrical impulses known as brain waves. This rhythmic activity of brain (brainwave pattern) can be recorded with an instrument called electroencephalograph.

The art of controlling the mind or rather controlling the life as such is the power each of us craves for. Unfortunately the truth is that we are not born with the power to delve into the depths of mind and control it with our remote system. The irony of the situation is that we are trying to control something that exists in entity and way beyond the planar existence. This weak control over our mind is the reason behind many of us find hard to quit smoking, keep with our new resolutions and so on. We don’t realize that in most of the circumstances and difficulties we are fighting against ourselves.

We start to lose motivation when we embark on a task and the results are not immediate. In our minds the level of difficulty of the task is readjusted and the doubt starts creeping in. To have control over these feelings means that you no longer waste too much time fretting and not moving forward pinned to the ground with self doubt. If you are not able to regroup for yourself and by yourself you will never ultimately succeed.
