Some habit pattern behaviors are beneficial, some worth changing.

Patterns begin developing right from the minute we are born. Everything we learn becomes part of our neural associations and pathways.

We’ve all heard the statement old habits die hard which is a way of saying the habit is wired into our sub-conscious response pattern. Some patterns or reasons for a habit aren’t even recognized consciously.

Hypnosis, meditation and visualization are three similar processes for accessing a creative area of the sub-conscious mind where habit patterns can be rewritten.

Many habit error patterns resist change by conventional conscious methods, even when the subject really wants the change, because of the sub-conscious programming.

Behavior is determined by habit patterns imprinted or programmed in the brain. New habits require new connections in the brain.

New imaging techniques in the last quarter century have enabled researchers to precisely map functioning of different parts of the brain.

Dr. Jeffrey Schwartz, a leading researcher in brain dysfunction, states in his book "The Mind and the Brain – NeuroPlasticity and the Power of Mental Force" that the human mind is an independent entity that can shape and control the functioning of the physical brain. Schwartz takes neuro-plasticity, the brain’s ability to be rewired not just in childhood but throughout life, a step further.

He noticed his patients were effecting significant and lasting changes in their own neural pathways. By actively focusing the attention away from negative behaviors and toward more positive ones, Schwartz’s patients were using their minds to reshape their brains.

What has been discovered is that new neural pathways are being forged in the brain throughout our whole lives, depending on how we use our mind. Wherever we focus our attention is where new neural connections will be made.

The first step to being in control of your life is being in control of your mind. If you’re not controlling your thoughts, who is?

The good news is that with modern technological advances there is a wide variety of new motivating tools to play with that make change easier and more entertaining than ever before.
