Everybody wants to achieve more in life. Whether it's to lose a few pounds, or make a million dollars, it seems to be easier for some than it is for others. One thing that can get in our way is a negative memory from our past. Luckily, you're about to learn a fantastic method of removing those old memories so they can't stand in your way any longer. This is an extremely powerful and really easy trick to absolutely demolish any negative memory you may have. For example, imagine that you'd like to stroll into your boss' office and demand a twenty percent raise, but that causes you to remember an event from your past where you asked somebody in authority for something, and were horribly rejected. So you change your mind, and decide to ask your boss for a raise later. The only problem is that the next time comes around, and the same thing happens. This technique is based on the idea of representational systems. These are the different ways that we map out reality onto our brains. We see things, we hear things, we taste things, we smell things, and we feel things. All of our memories are codified into our brains through one or a combination of our five senses. And each sense has particular attributes that can affect our interpretation of them. Brighter or darker, louder or quieter, sour or salty, rough or smooth, or many other ways to quantify our individual sense perceptions. The simple way to destroy a previous memory that isn't serving your well is to play around with the way you have that represented in your mind. For example, if you have a memory of some authority figure yelling at you, you likely remember him or her as being very big, and very loud, and yourself as being very small, and very quiet. Just change it around, and play with it and see how that affects your memory of that incident. Imagine them being only three inches tall, with a small squeaky voice. Or imagine them being in black and white, and yelling at you through a long tunnel that echoes so much you can barely make out what they are saying. You'll need to do it a couple of times for it to stick, but once you do, it starts to become automatic. Once it becomes automatic, the next time that situation comes up that used to make you think that thought, the old thought will be gone, and it will be replaced by a new thought that will have much less emotional impact. Leaving you free to do whatever you want. Now imagine what your future will be like in six months if you make a habit of doing this once a week. Not bad, huh?
