The Mental Power That Brings Success

written by Alain Yaovi M. Dagba

The mental power is the combination of the works of three dynamic functions of the mind that are:

 

1-Imagination

2-Analysis

3-Conception

 

I also call them the 3 creative devices of the mind. But, there is one important thing that most people ignore. They ignore that the heart is also a mind on its own. There is a saying that goes: “The heart has its own reason that the reasoning of the mind is not aware of”. This is true.

 

Yes, the heart is also a thinking entity. Many people can actually recall the time their head were thinking something different from their feeling. Well, to feel is to think with the heart.

 

And when we are talking about the mental power, we are not just talking about the thinking of the head. There is no power in thinking until the thinking devices of the heart connect with that of the head. The followings are the thinking devices of the heart:

 

1-Desire

2-Will

3-Satisfaction

 

To have true mental power, all you need to do is to bring these six creative devices into perfect marriage by knowing where each “gender” belongs.

 

Keep in mind that the head produces seeds, but it is the heart that supplies enough life or energy to these seeds to develop and grow. This is called using the principle of polarity to create mental power. Power always call to action, and action means movement.

 

Now, the creative devices of the mind are partners to the creative devices of the heart. It is your job to create the match. Imagination is masculine and its feminine counterpart is desire. If you desire something, but yet can’t see its full picture in your head, this is simply because your desire is not yet strong.

 

When you can’t fully see what you desire to create, there is no need to seek to force the image of what you desire, to become more pronounced in your head. This will give you frustration.

 

All you need is to dive yourself more and more into the female aspect of imagination, which is desire. The way to do that is by asking a simple and single question: Why do I desire to create this particular thing?

 

The minute you begin to explore the desire you will come to realize the advantages of creating that particular thing, and how it will serve the society and bring you fulfillment in many areas of your life. Everything the exploration of the desire will reveal to you is called the content of the desire. You will notice that during the exploration of your desire, your imagination will become more active and ready to fully create the picture of what you wish to create.

 

This becomes almost impossible when your desire is not authentic, meaning is not your own. If it is an idea that had been given to you by someone, then you need that person to make you see the content of his desire about the idea.

 

Once you can see it, you also come to create that desire in you and can fully see the picture of what is to be created. Until you see it, you cannot co-create it with the person who actually first had the desire.

 

Then, you move to the second device: Analysis. Analysis is all about seeing the possibilities to bring the image of what you desire to create. However, you need to understand that without a strong will, your analytical ability is weak. Strong will is what we call faith. You will must grow from its basic stage to become a belief, and then from the belief to become faith.

 

Many people succeed in creating the full picture of something they want to create, but doubt and negative and discouraging thoughts from their past experiences and environment caused them to fail to see possibilities. You will hear them say: “I like the idea, but I don’t see how it could be implemented.” Think about this; what if you were the first person on the planet who first thought about creating an engine to fly in the sky, will you believe in it?

 

You see, those who create unthinkable things are people of faith. Your mental sight is limited without a strong will, a powerful belief, and an unshakable faith in the existence of a possibility.

 

Sometimes you will have to try many possibilities and fail in many of them, before you reach the right one. Failing in trying many possibilities is not a defeat but a journey of improvement. If you do not have a strong will you will give up on your analysis and quit.

 

Now, what makes the will grow into faith? It is the genuine intention to serve the society. The will faculty is weaker when one thinks only about himself. Selfishness limits the sight of the mind in seeing possibilities. It all depends on the kind of universe you are conducting your analysis.

 

If your analysis is limited to you and your circle of living, all you can see as possibility is what is in it for you. Now, when you expand your awareness of the entire society, you begin to extend your mental-tent beyond the borders of your dwelling, for more provision of possibilities. You faith will come from your will to serve the world with what you create.

 

Now, after go get the right possibility you must be fully sanctified before you can conceive of the idea. This is a very important point. If you still feel a little doubt about the possibility of the idea, failure is already a fact.

 

To truly be conceived of the idea is to put it into action or implementation. This means that the idea has occupied every fiber of your being. Skepticism is not always bad. It is a warning that your will is not yet in perfect sync with your analysis. Failure comes when we jump on a next step without first fully mastering the previous one.

 

As long as you still feeling doubt about making the idea a reality, you must wait and look deep within till you find the element of the doubt and remove it. Usually this lingering skepticism comes from past failures. To remove them, you have to face them. How do you face them? You face them by analyzing them and seeing without any shame the mistakes you made that caused them to happen.

Seeing your mistakes is a form of grace. If you can’t see your mistakes them your mental-blindness has become a veil of ignorance. This is not what you want. However, once you explore your past mistakes and see them for what they are, and accept them without feeling ashamed, just like magic all skepticism vanish.

 

Once the heart is cleared from doubt, your faith will become authentic because born out of your own integrity with yourself. The highest level of honesty is the truth one tells himself. This is something that frees the heart. You will then fully be satisfied with the possibility you found to implement the idea.

 

With this satisfaction you can impact others with great affinity and easily attract partners, because your thoughts, your feelings, your words, and your actions are impregnated with the realness of your idea. People can trust you because you are speaking of it with excitement and boldness. They can trust you because you trust yourself and the idea. They can sense that you are genuine, simply because you fully completed the step of making the idea useful to the entire society. This is your mental power at work to bring you success.
