Our subconscious mind cannot differentiate the good from the bad.

This is because our subconscious mind largely represents our mind in its natural state – a mind that is pure and non-judgemental. Thus our conscious mind gets the important task of being the gatekeeper ” guarding the thoughts that get into our subconscious mind.

If you’ve ever tried to guard the thoughts that get into your subconscious mind, then you’ll know what a formidable task this is. The more mindful or aware you are, the easier it is to guard what goes through your mind. We will deal with this mindfulness or self-awareness later.

If you look carefully at yourself, you’ll realise that how you respond to a certain situation is largely dependant on your core beliefs. If you believe that the world out there is a dog-eat-dog world, you’ll respond in a certain way. You’ll put on your guard when you deal with people around you, with a greater degree of mistrust and apprehension.
