A Walk Through the Human Mind

A Walk Through the Human Mind

The concept of three levels of mind is nothing new. Sigmund Freud, the famous Austrian psychologist was probably the first to popularize it into mainstream society as we know it today. Even though his theories have subsequently been widely disputed in Psychology circles because they are very hard to scientifically prove, Freud nonetheless created a useful model of the mind, which he separated into 3 tiers or sections – the conscious mind or ego, the preconscious, and the unconscious mind.

The best way that people have found to illustrate the concept of the three minds is by using a triangle. If you imagine at the very tip of the triangle is your conscious mind. It occupies only a small portion of space at the top, a bit like an iceberg where only a fraction of it is showing above the water. It probably represents about 10% of your brain capacity.

Below this is a slightly larger section that Freud called the preconscious, or what some refer to as the subconscious. It is much larger than the conscious mind and accounts for around 50-60% of your brain capabilities.

The section below this is the unconscious mind. It occupies the whole width of the base of the triangle and fills out the other 30-40% of the triangle. It is vast and deep and largely inaccessible to conscious thought, a bit like the dark depths of the ocean.

How They Work Together

Your conscious mind is what most people associate with who you are, because that is where most people live day to day. But it’s by no means where all the action takes place.

Your conscious mind is a bit like the captain of a ship standing on the bridge giving out orders. In reality it’s the crew in the engine room below deck (the subconscious and the deeper unconscious) that carry out the orders. The captain may be in charge of the ship and give the orders but its the crew that actually guides the ship, all according to what training they had been given over the years to best do so.

The conscious mind communicates to the outside world and the inner self through speech, pictures, writing, physical movement, and thought.

The subconscious mind, on the other hand, is in charge of our recent memories, and is in continuous contact with the resources of the unconscious mind.

The unconscious mind is the storehouse of all memories and past experiences, both those that have been repressed through trauma and those that have simply been consciously forgotten and no longer important to us. It’s from these memories and experiences that our beliefs, habits, and behaviours are formed.

The unconscious constantly communicates with the conscious mind via our subconscious, and is what provides us with the meaning to all our interactions with the world, as filtered through your beliefs and habits. It communicates through feelings, emotions, imagination, sensations, and dreams.

The Mind in Action

The following analogy may help to clarify the concept of how the three minds work a little more.

If you imagine you mind is like a computer …

Your conscious mind is best represented by the keyboard and monitor. Data is inputted on the keyboard and the results are thrown up on the monitor screen. That is how you conscious mind works – information is taken in via some outside (or internal) stimulus from your environment and the results are thrown up instantaneously into your consciousness.

Your subconscious is like the RAM in your computer. For those who don’t know, RAM is the place in a computer where programs and data that are currently in use are kept so they can easily be reached quickly by the computer processor. It is much faster than other types of memory, such as the hard disk or CD-ROM.

Your subconscious works in the same way. Any recent memories are stored there for quick recall when needed, such as what your telephone number is or the name of a person you just met. It also holds your current programs that you run every day, such as your current recurring thoughts, behaviour patterns, habits, and feelings.

Your unconscious is like the hard disk drive in your computer. It is the long term storage place for all your memories and programs that have been installed since birth.

Your unconscious mind (and ultimately your subconscious mind) then uses these programs to make sense of all the data you receive from the world and to keep you safe and ensure your survival. The logic of these two minds is that if it worked in the past and you survived, then it will help you get through similar situations by the same means, no matter how misguided, painful, and unhelpful the results may be to you personally in the outside world.

Quantum Jumping – The inter – Dimensional Quest FOR a better you

Day dreaming is thinking.

Your intent makes the day dream an escape from reality, a simple recreation, or a creative resource. When you direct your day dream towards a specific objective ,it becomes a powerful tool for you to use to better your life.

Your eyes see things as they are, your daydreams see things as they could be. Your mind activates your dreams through your physical actions. But All achievements, whether they are of a financial, personal or universal nature, begin with a dream of a successful end result – a day dream

When you alter the thoughts that have become beliefs in your mind then time comes into play while you adjust to a new situation. Your body is used to reacting to certain beliefs without question and when a new idea comes along to chip away at that belief the idea may or may not be accepted by your mind in a timely fashion. Your beliefs are like a radio, receiving only transmissions that are in tune with that belief.

When you change the belief the new signals may be filled with static. This is all taken into consideration with the use and development of Quantum Jumping.

The more you utilize quantum jumping to seek out a twin self who has already solved the problem, or adjusted the situation that you are working on the more successful you will be.

The goal should be a change in attitude so that you can just daydream the positive end result of any situation. This will build your self esteem and confidence and motivate you to take actions you would not have taken with an attitude of defeat or doubt.

Practice Beauty - The Art & Neuroscience of Freedom

There is a place where all things begin, the place of pure energy that simply "is" the place of the power that awaits us when we allow ourselves to venture beyond the limits of what we have always believed to be possible in our lives. Joining the long separated worlds of science and spirit. Accessing the most powerful tools from each discipline creates a fertile environment to awaken to the power of the higher brain. To awaken to the experience of inner peace, vast insight and extraordinary creativity that define the experience of enlightenment.

“Practice Beauty, possibility to apply to the mysteries of our everyday lives”

Father & Son 5 Peak Challenge on Ryans Birthday - Pre Everest Marathon Test - 85000 Fit bit steps in a day

The Challenge was Designed By Stevie Kidd through experiencing a continual Limiting Belief that he had embedded within his mind, from away last year. This was when he climbed Kilimanjaro then came off the mountain then ran a marathon. However Stevie fixated on how he felt on Roof of Africa and pain was horrendous he remembers..

This year Stevie has to climb to base camp at Everest and then run a marathon, his attention was focused on how he felt on top of Kilimanjaro last year. He describes it as the worst pain he has ever experienced.. So he wanted clarification that this year was going to be different with the challenge ahead of him, so he designed a test but wanted company along the way...

Below is Image is Stevie on Roof of Africa and completion of Kilimanjaro Marathon...

So Stevie approached 3 people to support him,

1st Person : His Son Ryan, who has trained since age of 8, even though Ryan knew it was his birthday on day of challenge he said "Yes" immediately. My dad has been here for me his whole life, its now my turn to repay him.. and Its a great way to spend my birthday also .. Ryan Kidd

2nd Person: Ricardo Pallisco , A neighbour, Friend, Training partner , also someone who is real endurance athlete within cycling world. Ricardo for me was the rock for me especially going up Ben Nevis in the dark. Also with Ricardo endurance experience he was key to whole day.

" I had no reservations, when he called I said yes immediately"

3rd Person : Alex Hutchison, a man who came through Stevie award winning academy model and ex employee who was now retired. We required a driver as from peak to peak we had a distance to travel and this gave us rest time.. " The journey I was on with Stevie changed my life, how could I say no"

The Challenge ahead of us...

Challenge completed - So Lets start with the end

Climbed mountains in 24 hours - 1120pm we started at bottom of Ben nevis

We then travelled to Arrochar to climb Ben Ine, Cobbler,

We then travelled to Balmaha to climb Ben Lomond finishing at Conic

Statistics

31.42 miles...
85000 fit bit stats for a day 
3599m evlevation
16 hours 23 minutes moving time
23 hours total.

3599m elevation

My Learning - I walk the talk and prove to my clients what is “possible” , but at the same time I prove the concept we all suffer at times in the same way. I also have limiting beliefs but recognise them. This was example of me eliminating those limiting beliefs. How do I know they are gone, because when I think of Everest marathon the visual of me in pain at top of Kilimanjaro is no longer within my mind. If you consider and stop and walk through what we accomplished it was one hell of a challenge on so many levels.. My sincere thanks to my wife Lesley, and also the team for the support they gave me, it was a magnificent 24 hours in a day and night..

Stevie Kidd the Executive coach : I have spent 30 years studying human behaviour, I am a coach who walks the talk. I lead by example for my clients to follow what is possible.. I am coached in 3 areas of my life and set huge goals and achieve them because I understand the mind.  If you want a no obligation call to explore your possible coaching journey then reach out to stevie@steviekidd.co.uk , as after this one session you will see the world differently..

Limiting beliefs are those which constrain us in some way. Just by believing them, we do not think, do or say the things that they inhibit. And in doing so we impoverish our lives. ... Limiting beliefs are often about our selves and our self-identity.

My coaching partnership with "Stevie Kidd"

My coaching partnership with "Stevie Kidd" in my words...

Coaching Partnership with Stevie Kidd - I now realise that you have to invest in yourself to reach your true potential

I have been working with Stevie for the last 6 months. When I started I was struggling with some personal and professional challenges. My 3 year old daughter had been diagnosed with autism and my husband and I were both struggling to come to terms with it. I had extensive work pressures as a Senior Leader and full time working mum and I was keen to improve my circumstances. When I first engaged with Stevie I intended to focus on business but after a few weeks of working together we decided to focus on my personal growth. Since then I have made some major changes in my life. I joined a gym and exercise 3 to 4 time a week, I am focussed on improving my nutrition and general wellbeing and I am training to take part in my first endurance event this year ( Half Marathon October). I have also developed plans to launch a charity ( October) and I am writing a book. In addition to this I am intentionally working to strengthen and improve all of the key relationships in my life.

Stevie is unique as he works to develop you to get better in every aspect of your life not just business. He is calm, considered and very insightful. I love working with him as he leads by example. Stevie is a coach that is being coached to achieve exceptional results in all areas of his own life. Therefore he is a great role model and mentor for me. Stevie never asks me to do anything that he isn't doing or hasn't done himself. If you are looking to change your circumstances or up-level your results I would highly recommend working with Stevie. Having a coach has been one of the best investments I have ever made. In the early days I didn't think I could justify the expense of being coached. I now realise that you have to invest in yourself to reach your true potential.

Stevie Kidd Beyond Limits Event - I attended the event in June 2017

I attended the Beyond Limits in June 17. I loved to hear from Stevie, Doug and Kenny about what was possible in life. To aim high, take risks and strive to become the best version of yourself whilst putting your family first. I believe attending the event has helped me to grow. Although, I had already started the coaching process with Stevie several months prior to the event. This helped to accelerate my progress and results. It's often said that people overestimate the impact of an event and underestimate the process of growth. By committing to the coaching process and the event I was able to maximise both. The event provides the inspiration and ideas and the coaching process provides the structure and discipline required to turn your dreams and aspiration into reality.
My advice is, if you want more, if you want to excel on your current success or even want change then start now as you will you reap the rewards instantly just like I have and am, its simple just call like I did, call 07780333627 or email stevie@steviekidd,co.uk. its in that moment change occurs pretty instantly , he thinks like no one else I will ever meet... Stevie simply lives in a different world, he sees the world differently from most of us, but very few have lived the life he has, that's where the magic lies.......

Senior Leader Welfare to Work

www.steviekidd.co.uk

My Name is "ANXIETY"

How have you felt within yourself generally this week?

What is the label you gave that emotional state ?

Would you like to live a life free of these negative emotions?

Read on................

I have been working with many people across many sectors,( Pharmacy, Distribution, Manufacturing, Engineering, IT, Digital Innovation, Welfare to Work,  who are suffering from these symptoms for long periods of time. I have a structure to building rapport then working with people as its a real sensitive area. When we build rapport we can then create change speedily.. I have spent 30 years studying human beings in why we do what we do, I understand most triggers, after all we all have same Nuerology................

Typical client Quote " I cannot believe I have been living like this for so long"

This is a blog, that if you feel "Anxiety" or "Stress" at times, then this will help you. Now that's a point , when do we know when to bring it on and turn it off ? We were not born with these symptoms, its basically how we use our senses.  Attention is directed through our senses. By paying attention on the outside, you magnify and associate to your thinking. When we pay attention on the inside, we become more sensitive to your own thoughts and feelings. The more we understand who we are in the inside, we then can pay more attention to the outside world..

Inside the Mind  ( All change takes place at the unconscious level. Then we become aware of it)

Your mental pictures, sounds and feelings all have certain qualities. Think of a TV remote control, your pictures, for example, have brightness and colour; your sounds have rhythm and tone, your feelings have certain texture and temperature. These qualities are known in NLP as sub-modalities.  The senses are the modalities we use to think, so the qualities of the sense experience are sub modalities . Although they are known as sub modalities, they are not inferior, under or beneath the modalities, but are integral part of them. You cannot have sense experience without these qualities.














In how we feel, Sub Modalities are how we structure our experience. Sub modalities are the building blocks of the representational systems. They are the basic qualities of the  "Neuro"  in Nuero-Linguistic Programming. When I coach people we first understand the sequence of sub modalities that create the anxiety and stress, this is how you have wired the experience consistently.  When we change the structure of our experiences ,We then change the meaning. We can choose our submodalities . Therefor we can choose the meaning we give our experience.  This is an area that excited me most when working with Dr Bandler..

Below is some soft strategies I use today that help people overcome stress and anxiety instantly.

1. Write a list of what you know is true ( I find the people I work with focus on the things that are untrue and this is what puts them into an anxiety state, raising awareness on the truths and untruths is a starting point..

2 Read the list 2-3 times a day ( Its not just about making the list but feeding the list to the mind multiple times throughout the day..)

3. Take up yoga, body balance and meditation ( The unknown but bring this into your life)

4. Exercise ( I challenge my clients to sign up for half or full marathons then I create the training pathway along with Nutritional advice) I push clients past limitations to change beliefs.

5 Get A coach ( I have 3, I advise its easier with support than doing journey alone, more effective solution)

6 Practice affirmations ( My favourite as you train, as you walk along the road, as you awake in the morning and look in the mirror in confidence shout them aloud) Your Dreams - "Its possible" " I can do it" " Never give up" " I deserve it" " I will make this happen"

7 Design a future self with one that has no anxiety, amplify and associate to image through my techniques. This future image is a description of a fulfilled life for you, one you want. We merge and walk towards the one with no anxiety through NLP and visualisation techniques..

8 Time lining : Timeline interventions are very powerful in helping people to access resources and create a compelling future and organise their lives. When I develop clients in time lining anxiety disappears because the whole structure within the mind is changed.

9 Mentally Rehearsing - Anxiety/Stress Example - Playing the future movie within your mind of you at work or leading a business starts creating smaller chunks which gives each day a new meaning.. You start a day where you have already lived it within your mind.

10 Quantum Jumping - We leap and take a journey through past - present - future techniques. We also use strategies of meeting future self's and absorb and bathe our self's in that person. We have a strategy of 3 chairs which is similar to Disney strategy each chair has different interpretation. We have built this up before to having 10 chairs which accelerates to the life you want. The power of the imagination bringing it to reality.

Its my job to create change quickly and instantly , never waste another minute feeling anything other than the way you really want to feel each day.. Stevie Kidd

Stevie Kidd - When I started devlopment under Tony Robbins The Triad model was powerful for me..

The Triad – Physiology, focus and language

One of the core beliefs of Human Needs Psychology is that its not our conditions but our decisions that shape our destiny.  So what shapes our decisions, both in the short term and the long term? There are three factors – three moulders of meaning that shape our decisions we make in the moment.

There are three patterns that shape the meaning we associate with our life experiences:

1. Patterns of Physiology – How you use your physical body such as breath, posture, movement etc.
2. Patterns of focus – Whatever you focus on you will feel.
3. Patterns of language/meaning –As soon as we put words to an experience, it changes the meaning of the experience.

Emotional Pain is always the result of constructing and creating a disempowering meaning within ourselves. By changing our physiology, focus  and language/meaning we can shift to a more empowering state and make more empowering decisions.

Your Physiology - Emotion is created by motion. Whatever you’re feeling right now is related to how you’re using your body. Consider your physical posture right now. Are you shoulders slumped or are you standing or sitting up straight with you head held high and your shoulders back? Do you find yourself looking down at the ground or toward what’s out there in front of you?

2.      Your Focus - Whatever you focus on you’re going to believe. Focus equals reality to the individual, even though it’s not reality in actuality. Change your focus.  Are you fixated on all the bad stuff that’s happening to you or focusing on the possible solutions to the problems?  Are you playing the role of victim or problem solver? Are you complaining about all the stuff you don’t have or are you expressing gratitude inside for what you do have?

3.      Your Language - What words are you using in talking to yourself and/or others? Thinking is nothing more than mentally asking and answering a series of questions. Eliminate any habitual questions that do not serve you. Are you asking yourself, “Why does this always happen to me?” or are you saying instead, “what can I do with this?”   If you want to change your life, pay attention to the words you repeat to yourself.

Changing just one of these three components will quickly affect the others. Change your posture, and you’ll find that your mental focus begins to change,  as this happens, you’ll find yourself using different words and phrases, and this, in turn, will continue to affect your posture and physiology. And the whole thing works in reverse too – start by changing your language and the rest will follow!

Stevie Kidd - Coaching entrepreneurs to extraordinary results.

What Are the Questions Entrepreneurial Leaders Should Be Asking?

It’s engrained in Entrepreneurs: They want the unknown ( challenge reality) to happen that will and usually leads to achieving huge goals. Business leaders have the highest standards set for their employees and colleagues.

Making big things happen is in their Blueprint. The way they live life is in the life map of what they do consistently and daily.

But, a lot of businesses fail because Entrepreneurs and Business Leaders simply aren’t asking the right questions. In my lifetime I have had 7 enterprises and have also learned this the hard way. My model is unique as I have spent 30 years in owning businesses, supporting businesses and 20 years plus as a Executive coach, a very unique offering.

My coaching background and qualifications come from studying Tony Robbins and Dr Bandler models around the world. Modelling excellence in business comes from studying 13 Global businesses in New York and Boston..

Stevie Kidd coaching/Consultancy Product

When we engage in a coaching/consultancy partnership which has been historically known businesses engage from half a day a month to 4 days a month for a timeline of 6 to 12 months depending on personal and business requirements as well as size of business.

On engagement the critical questions I ask the business owner or leader that represent business and life:

1. What do you want in life and Business? (Vision)
2. What do you have to do now? (Action)
3. What could get in the way? (Anticipate)
4. How do you hold yourself accountable? (Measure)
5. What does the end look like?

Emphasizing these questions are the foundation of every fast-growing profitable business and demonstrates how answering them in the right way can lead to exceptional results.

For me its about coaching and disciplining businesses and Entrepreneurs to increase profitability, understand all numbers, drive Growth Strategy and gain accountability in order to meet business objectives and reach new heights.

Profit Growth

Working with myself, Entrepreneurs have seen measurable profit growth year over year. Build on the vision, strategy and plan to have a meaningfully increase to your profitability in the next 12 months. We start with end in mind, with key communication strategies, KPIs, speed of evaluation and change to keep us on track.

Key Relationships

Highly successful Entrepreneurs understand that running a high-growth organization is a team effort. Learn to develop strategic relationships internally and externally to dramatically improve your success and business model.

Accountability

Coaching and consultancy creates accountability and allows CEOs and Entrepreneurs to follow through on their goals of increased revenues, reduced costs, and profitability of business. This is key as sustainability of business and family are key going forward in a successful timeline.

Profit Optimization

On site we support COO/Finance Directors to evaluate cost performance indicators across corporate divisions. Together we build a plan to meaningfully increase operational performance and profitability in the next 12 months.

Strategic Planning

Highly successful COOs are able to align operations with the strategic plan. CEOs and COOs understand that running a high-growth organization is a collective effort. Leading the business to what has been strategically mapped out is key and responsibility of leaders to ensure the ship is being steered in right direction.

Accountability

Utilising my services as coach - consultant or both hats creates accountability and allows business leaders to follow through on their goals across the business. All of above leads to driving forward unstoppable people, teams, culture and sustainable business.
