How to Create a New Concept
There’s a variety of ways to create a new concept. One of the easiest is imaging. Imaging is basically using your imagination to create an image in your mind, and then focusing on that image enough until it becomes fixed in your subconscious. Let’s say I want to get into better shape. I can first start by creating in my mind exactly how I would look if I was in better shape. After that I can decide on things like how much I would weigh, how I would feel, how I would act, how I would sleep, what I would eat, and so on. I would then draft up some affirmations (see this link if you’re unfamiliar with affirmations) to reinforce my new image and keep my self-talk positive and strong. Having done this I would then come up with a plan to achieve my new body. By the way, sometimes coming up with a plan is not necessary. Once I wanted to manifest a new girlfriend. I simply sat down and began seeing myself with her and repeating my affirmations to myself. Almost instantly (within one hour), I got a message from a beautiful woman I hadn’t spoken to in years asking me if I would like to see her.
After you have your images and affirmations, sit down and visualize for at least a minute or two how you would look, feel, and act if your current reality was happening right now. Remember to really add in some emotion with it as the more emotion it has, the faster it becomes lodged in your subconscious. I say to concentrate for at least a minute or two a day as it has been said that it takes on average 33 seconds for a concept to become lodged in someone’s subconscious. As some people have minds that tend to wander, I ask you to focus for at least a minute or two to make sure it really gets in there. After you focus I want you to say your affirmations to yourself to reinforce the good work you are doing. Sometimes simply saying affirmations are enough as the positive words you are saying are creating new positive beliefs and images in your mind. These new beliefs will cause you to take new positive actions which will lead to better results for you.
Make sure that as you go throughout the day, the self-talk you give yourself regarding your image is positive and good. If you are affirming in the morning, “I have my perfect husband” but five hours later are saying “I am never going to have him”, you’re sabotaging the good work you were doing earlier. Stay the course. Say you will have him, he is coming, and he is on his way!
Here are the steps again to forming a new concept
1. Form a new image of what you would like
2. Concentrate on that image for at least 33 seconds a day
3. Reinforce that image with positive affirmations and self-talk
4. Take positive action on that image
There’s one other thing I would like to add. When you form a strong concept, you’ll no longer need to worry about motivation or inspiration for it. It will have become so transfixed in your mind that it will literally be a part of you. Seeing its manifest will become as natural as anything else you do. This is the secret for anyone who wants to get into shape or make any other type of positive change to their life. Simply form a strong image of what you want, concentrate and reinforce it until it becomes accepted by your subconscious, and watch it come into your life.
Acting As If
One of the most powerful things you can do to impregnate your subconscious with your new concepts is to begin acting as if your ideal reality were happening right now. Let’s say for instance you wanted to be successful with women. How would your ideal you, look, think, talk, and act? Start doing that NOW! You could go to a salon and get a nice haircut, go to a clothing store and get nice clothes, go to your library or Barnes and Noble and get books on pick-up and seduction, and much more. You could even start by simply walking tall, feeling good, and smiling at every woman you meet.
When you begin acting as if, you are doing two things; 1) On a vibratory level, you are putting yourself into a vibration to attract people, things, situations, and events that match up with your ideal life. 2) You’re sending positive images and messages to your subconscious which in turn will go about manifesting these things in your life and 3) You’re going to be feeling a whole lot better as you are living in harmony with your higher/ideal life.

Old Beliefs
Many of the concepts we have in our mind were given to us as kids. It’s been said that when you are born, until around the age of eight, your conscious mind is not yet fully developed so any input that is received goes straight into your subconscious. This would be okay if we lived in a perfect world, with perfect parents, teachers, people, and environments, however for most of us, we were told or shown certain ideas about life that may not be serving us well today. It’s important to go back into your subconscious to replace any negative concepts you have with new positive ones.
Now how do you do that? There’s a bunch of different ways. The easiest method, and one that was prescribed by Dr. Thurman Fleet of the Concept-Therapy Institute, is to lay or sit down in a comfortable position, relax, and allow your mind to drift through your past and see what events keep coming up. The purpose isn’t to revisit them and get yourself riled up again. It’s simply to see how they are affecting you now and to replace any limiting beliefs with new positive ones.
Once a specific image pops up, you are to say “That was me then. I take 100% responsibility for that. I am no longer that person. “When I say ”I take 100% responsibility”, I mean I take 100% responsibility for how I felt at that time. I am then going to release these emotions so they will no longer affect me. Then, with the hammer of my will (I actually envision a hammer), I shatter the negative image of what happened. I then replace that negative image with something more positive such as “I am strong”, “I am confident”, or I simply replace that image with a new one of how I would have liked everything to go. By replacing that old image with a new one, it allows my mind to see how I could handle a similar event in the future and how I should have handled that previous one. By doing this exercise, you are literally ridding yourself of old negative concepts and replacing them with new positive ones.
So there you have it. For anyone out there looking for the Holy Grail, or the secret to success, happiness, and wealth, there it is. It’s so simple, and once you understand and apply it, you can and will become a master of your life.
