First Step: Create Your Universes

"Civilization advances as more and more of life's essentials are absorbed by the unconscious." -Diane Ackerman, "An Alchemy of Mind: The Marvel and Mystery of the Brain"

The mind fascinates me--especially the unconscious/subconscious mind. The other than conscious is an integral part of my work in the persuasion field. In her amazing book, Diane Ackerman explains that our brains need space without volume because the conscious mind, the thinking part, can only hold a finite amount of information. And so our brains ". . . began storing information and memories outside itself on stone, papyrus, paper, computer chips, and film. This astonishing feat is so familiar a part of our lives that we don't think about it much. But it was an amazing and rather strange solution to what was essentially a packing problem: just store your essentials elsewhere and avoid cluttering up the cave."

Yes. Amazing and rather strange. And yet, we do this absolutely without thought at this point in our evolution.

The next step, as I see it, is to create our quantum universes. This tool is really the most phenomenal and practical way I know to work with our un/subconscious selves and ask for and actually get exactly what we want.

To create your quantum universes, you'll first need a snap shot of where you are now. Sculptors can go ahead and chisel this out. The easiest way is to go to www.maxpersuasion.com and choose "Create Your Quantum Universe". If you're already a member of my advanced coaching club or The Persuasion Factor, I'd highly recommend that option.

All you'll really need for this, however, is a pen or pencil and a few sheets of fresh paper.

This snapshot is of you now. Who are you? Where are you? How are you? What do you do? What are your set points? Financial, health-wise, romance-wise? What are your dreams? How does your life resemble the life you wanted when you were young? You can put everything in this snapshot from soup to nuts. Write it out and then think on it. Expand it. Let it grow into something that you can use as a sort of time capsule for You: 2007.

I'd love to have one of these for each year of my life just to look back. Who was I in 1979? Some of you may have not even been born yet. Who were you ten years ago? Twenty years ago? This is the first step in creating your quantum universe. I suggest choosing a birthday or New Year's day, some other day of significance to you, to do your yearly snapshots. Allow yourself the time you need to really draw a vivid picture of yourself.

Let this be a little acorn that you begin to grow. And in an upcoming post I'll give you the next step, but know that as we unpack and eliminate our storage problems, we're going to have all kinds of space for the essentials.
