The conscious mind is a very powerful thing. It can memorize poems, multiplication tables, and complex instructions. It can reason and solve math problems. However to solve the really difficult problems, I think that you need to rely on the subconscious mind. That is where the really complicated and difficult work is done.
How many times have you heard some one say “Let me sleep on it”? I am sure that you have possibly made that statement yourself. Did you ever stop to think that what that person was really saying was “Let my subconscious mind work on this problem while I sleep and am not feeding my subconscious with a lot of erroneous and useless information.”?
While you are awake or actively trying to solve the problem with the conscious mind, you are blocking the subconscious and preventing it from performing at its peak efficiency. So, when you go to sleep or quit actively thinking about the problem, your subconscious is able to get to work and solve the problem or remember whatever it was your conscious mind could not.
As I have said before I am not an expert and have not studied psychology or psychiatry, however I have observed the human race for quite a few years and that, my friends, is an education in itself.
If you do not agree that is your priviledge. Just tell me in a nice way and I will respect your opinion as well.
