The point is that in the real world you can’t stop and think about something you are doing right now. So I’m going to give you some quick tips that will help you to overcome your “I can’t stop thinking about this” block.
First, it’s important to recognize that what you’re doing is not a waste of time. As soon as you start thinking about a thing, it becomes a waste of time. For example, if you are thinking about going to the store to stock up on groceries, it’s probably a good decision to do it, or at least it’s a better decision than just driving to the store. But it’s also not a waste of time if you’re making this decision because you’re bored.
I think most people (including me) are pretty aware of this, but it comes as a surprise to many people that we have no control over our own thoughts. Just like with our bodies, many of us have the power to stop ourselves from doing something and not doing it. I mean, I can stop myself from going to the store, but I can’t stop myself from buying that new pair of heels.
When it comes to our decision making, our choices are often the result of our own thoughts. There are always some subconscious thoughts that make it seem like we have some control over what we do, but we don’t. Because when we’re not conscious of our own thoughts, we can’t control them.
As we can see from the above quote, our bodies are pretty powerful. They just dont think as much as we think. Our conscious thoughts are still the best guide we have. And just like with our bodies, our unconscious thoughts are also a pretty good guide. But like with our bodies, we cant really control what we think. And in fact, we are not even aware of our unconscious thoughts.
This reminds me of a story about a guy who was driving his car. He was driving along and realized that he had left the turn signal on, so he pulled over. The car mechanic was pulling the transmission shaft to see if the motor was bad. He noticed this guy was driving with his conscious thoughts. He said to him, “I saw you. I was in your head and I was thinking about your car, and it was in your head.
We all have a lot of subconscious thoughts about events that are happening in our lives, and we’re not aware of them. These thoughts are often our thoughts about other people, too. When we’re on autopilot, we often seem to forget our own thoughts and say, “That’s just how I am.” But we are not really aware of all of our thoughts, because we’re just letting them happen to us.
You might think that just because something is unconscious doesn’t mean it isn’t there. But to make the case that our subconscious is always aware, he said, we have to believe that our conscious self is always aware of our thoughts. If you can’t believe that, then you have to think about how you can be on autopilot and not be aware of your thoughts.
I want to think about a person who can think of himself as a passive observer, and not be aware of many thoughts in their head. That person would be you.
It’s easy to be an observer in the moment. That’s how we usually think of ourselves, but you’re not always aware of your thoughts. I think that makes you really good at this game. Just because you’re aware of your thoughts doesn’t mean you’re aware of them, it just means that they’re there, and you’re able to react to them. I think it’s because you have the ability to understand the thoughts behind the actions, and then to act on that understanding.
