Using Your Brain with Maureen Ross Gemme

Emerge. Evolve. Lead.

I believe that we all have a purpose in the world to reach our highest potential. As I coach and train leaders to get to that next level of personal and professional development, no one would disagree that the best way to do that is to fully and effectively use our brain and our mental capacity.

However few people can name and properly explain what their metal faculties are, so I created a solo podcast episode to explain them too you.

There are six of them and they are:

· Imagination

· Intuition

· Reason

· Perception

· Memory

· Will

It’s not surprising that so few people understand how to use their brains properly. I learned this from Bob Proctor, a highly successful entrepreneur.

When I went to college and began to understand how people learn a lot of it has to do with these higher brain functions. I also realized in my recovery that my mind is one of the most powerful resources and hindrances that I have, depending on how I use it. Now I teach others to use it too.

No matter what stage of recovery you are in, it will help you perhaps to change your perception about how powerful your brain and you, are.

We must learn to use all of the higher levels of thinking in the mind so that we can make the most of this one precious life that we have.

As Bob Proctor says: “To achieve your goals and dreams and create the life you want, you must stop focusing on external facts—things you see, hear, taste, touch, and smell—even if you consider them to be “good.”

That is thinking from the outside in and, at best, it limits you to what you’ve achieved in the past. At worst, it sabotages any chance you have at achieving your dreams.

Instead, you’ve got to start thinking from the inside out. Thinking from the inside out is using your mental faculties, starting with imagining what you want and then using your will to keep your attention there.

It’s listening to and acting on your intuition, the small inner voice and seeing the good in everything.

And it’s creating future memories and continually seeing and feeling like the person you want to be.

Each time you do those things, you plant your desire in the garden of your subconscious mind. With increasing repetitions, the image becomes fixed there.

And then, by law, it’s only a matter of time before it moves into form.”

We are co-creators in this amazing world and now that we’re in recovery, the skies the limit on what we can create.
