“Never go to sleep without a request to your subconscious.” – Thomas Edison.Your subconscious loves to do work while your body performs other tasks that are easy. For example, many good ideas were generated when you are driving or in the shower. When you are relaxed yet slightly distracted, your mind is often at its best. Scientific statistics shows that through using your subconscious mind, it can make a person becomes happier, increase in motivation and emotional intelligence.
The brain of a human being is split into two parts, which are the conscious and the subconscious. Most people only make use of about 10 percent of the total brain power, which is mostly the conscious part. The subconscious part of the brain is said to be more powerful, but in most cases, people are not able to take advantage of it, if you are able to master the skill of making use of your subconscious brain, you will be able to unleash your potentials and make alot of positive changes in life.
The conscious and the subconscious minds are always communicating with each other, whatever it is that you consciously think about, that would also be relayed over to the subconscious part of your brain. Thus, when you think that you are going to fail in something, then that is one of the biggest reasons why you would, since your subconscious mind would consider that suggestion as the truth.
In order to take advantage of the subconscious mind power, one of the things that you can do is to think positively. The effectiveness of positive thinking can also be enhanced with the use of affirmations, in which you would constantly tell yourself that you are going to achieve what you want.
Through positive thinking and affirmations, you will eventually take advantage of the power of subconscious mind, since you can feed it with suggestions that you want. The secret to success and happiness is to tell yourself about your goals regularly, so that you can program your subconscious mind for it.

Life or Death
Man is born, but cannot escape death. Man eventually have to die, have you wondered why has our almighty god, made us go through this painful process? In the bible, Romans 5:12 "Therefore sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned-" we understand that we we have committed sin that deserves death punishment.
If we consider the above verse, it is a serious matter that tens of billions of people have to die because of one man, Adam. Have you considered why did almighty god allow Adam and Eve to commit sin? To this question many would say god gave them the freedom of choice,and they chose to sin, but is this the correct answer? How would people rebuke this verse? Revelations 21:4 "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death..."
Why did god not give the freedom of choice , but get rid of death? If we are given absolute freedom in heaven, should not there also be freedom to chose from death of eternal life? Through further study I realised that eternal life was not guaranteed to Adam and Eve, but eternal life was given under certain condition, Genesis 2:16-17 "And the Lord God commanded the man, 'You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it, you will surely die.'", Genesis 3:22-24, "And the lord said,'The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.'"
God has longed knew that Adam and Eve would sin and have planned a way for salvation to save his people John 6:53-54 "Jesus said to them,'I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day." and this is the feast of Passover that he celebrated with his disciples before his crucifixion. The hope for eternal life may be hidden in the feast of Passover that was lost over 200 years ago due to the abolishment rule set by the Council of Nicaea in A.D.325.

A MOMENTARY GRATIFICATION
Does it happen to you when you see something attractive to you and you want it immediately regardless of any consequences? This happens to me alot, as I am very easily tempted by something that attract me. Have any of these decision that you made, make you regret?
One occasion, when I was shopping, a pair of Prada, limited edition shoe caught my attention. I stopped immediately and I knew I have to try it on, hence I asked for a size 43, but it turned out that there are only size 42 left. Not only did it hurts my feet as it was too small for me, it is very expensive as well. I considered for a long time and finally decide to purchase this pair of nice shoes, thinking that I will eventually get used to it when I wear it more often.
First week of wearing the shoe, I loved it, especially when friends around me complimented on my shoes, but it hurts my feet very badly and blisters even appeared on my feet. Second week of wearing this pair of shoes, I occasionally start to complaint that the shoes made me felt more tired from walking, therefore the times I wore the shoes became less frequent than I used to.
Finally, after one month of wearing the pair,it is not painful anymore, as the blisters have already formed into dead skin around my feet. One day, when I was about to wear them out, I was startled to find that my once beloved pair of shoes have crack lines, and many signs of wear and tear. I was disappointed as, this shoe is not as appealing as it used to be. Only then did I regretted from buying this pair of shoes, and I have regretted having to gone through one month of pain.
What you like and what is suitable for you, is two separate issues, I used to like and want many things, but have overlooked the many consequences. Many of times in life, we are too hasty in making decisions, such experience have made me learnt to be more careful in making decisions in life, take my time and slowly consider the consequences, and not be affected by the momentary gratification.

Egoism will lead to one's destruction
Recently I have heard read an interesting story, told by my father. The story begins when a big naval ship with the highest ranking commander on board, was sailing on the pacific ocean after a naval exercise for many days, and was finally returning to its base. One night, on their journey, they meet with big haze that blocked the vision of the ship. Hence the ship captain have to rely on their navigation system to guide the way.
Suddenly, the navigation system, alert the ship captain with an unknown object that was approaching their ship. The commander on board did not want to move away and used the loud speaker to communicate, "The ship in front, move out of the way!". The unidentified object replied, "No, you have to move out of the way!". The message angered the commander, that rebuked " How dare you tell me to move away, do you know that I have the highest authority in the military?"," Heed my advice, better sail away from this direction!". The commander did not listen to the other party, and sail full speed ahead. On spur of a moment, the ship crashed, and everyone on board did not survive. It was too late for them to realise that they have crashed into a light house.
The morale of this story taught me that, no matter how high of a status one have, they should not be stubborn or arrogant, in fact we should be humble and be willing to listen to others advice.

NEW FOUND LOVE
We have all grown up trying to find our true passion in life. For instance, some people have talent in speaking, or good social skills, mostly end up being a TV host or people relation manager. Some, have talent in dancing, may end up being a dancer. However, not many people end up doing what they enjoy in their career, that explains the hugh dissatisfaction in people's daily jobs, and the uprising staff turnover rate. Therefore, choosing what one is passionate about, will definitely benefit in their future career.
As for me, I have started searching for my passion in life since five years ago. Remembering when I was younger, I have many ambitions, for example, being policeman, pilot, and ecetra, all because I find these profession cool. As I grow up I decide to pursue my career in doing something I love. Recently, I discovered my interest in designing. I designed my own room of my new flat that I was moving in, in July. Actually, since young, I already knew, I have a thing for art, drawing, making or improvising furnitures, but chose to gave up thinking that it would be a difficult and competitive carrer to pursue. It could be my father's advice that made me gave art a second thought, saying "There are many talented artist in the world, it may take you a very long time for people to recognised your talent, or worst, never work out at all." Hence, I lost hope for drawing.
Designing my new room, have again sparked my interest in designing, I could feel that this talent is in built in me that I have never lost, hence I decide to continue to draw, and design, hoping that in the near future I can a chance to show everyone my capabilities.

THE BEST PRESENT I RECEIVED
Birthdays have never seem to be a big deal to me since young, as my birthdays always falls near or on exam period, when everyone is busy preparing for exams. Not only my friends,but also my family, never have the habit of celebrating birthdays because according to my father, it is a waste of money and time.
Friends tend to forget my birthday as it falls on such a non appealing day. Hence I always receive lesser presents than everyone else. In contrast, my mother, whom of all people, will never forget my birthdays. She always prepares a table of my scrumptious food to celebrate it with me. Therefore , that was the only thing I look forward to during birthadays,and I am always very grateful to her.
On Friday, I finally turned twenty two.I did not expect any big surprises or organise any big party , but went to school as usual. In the evening, my friends called me out for dinner, which never have I expected that they would treat me to an expensive seafood restaurant called 'Jumbo'. I had my fill of black pepper crab and salted egg prawns that night , which I have craved for months. My friends not only helped me to satisfy my stomach but also my cravings. Therefore, I was very thankful to my friends for not only remembering my birthday, but also bought me such an expensive dinner. This have been my best present I have received in 2013.
