			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;I am, therefore I exists&#8221; is a phrase that affirms the existence as a being. This may be a simple sentence, but says a lot about being who say. It indicates that the confidence does not always found among other beings.</p>
<p>But why people need affirmation? Why do people need to be affirmed? It is the existence regarding affirmation?</p>
<p>The statement of affirmation is a powerful technique to empower people’s subconscious. Once the subconscious is disciplined for an affirmation, it becomes a positive action for the conscious mind. Through affirmation, beings are empowered to do, to work and to fight for more in life. Affirmation allows people to believe in themselves and put their ideas into action.</p>
<p>Affirmation is a combination of verbal and visual techniques of a preferred state of mind of a person. Strong affirmation can be very powerful, and can be used by almost everyone to achieve their goals and fulfill their wishes. However, the strength of an affirmation depends on how strong or weak an affirmation is.</p>
<p><span id="more-18"></span>Affirmation is simply an assertion made by a person on something or a state of being. A person may affirm anything that he chooses to attain, just like “I now have a good life.” Being healthy in mind, body and soul, may also be possible through affirmation.</p>
<p>A strong affirmation must be appeared in the present tense to be more effective. The statement &#8220;I am happy now&#8221; is more effective than a statement saying: &#8220;I am going to be happy.&#8221; Affirmation should always be in positive terms, it is supposed to work for you and not against you. Instead of saying &#8220;I&#8217;m not sad”, why not make a statement saying:&#8221; I&#8217;m happy.&#8221;</p>
<p>Affirmation must be made of simple words but concise, and must be brief to be more effective. A very long affirmation can work the other way, instead of creating a positive mindset for a person. A short affirmation can be easily spoken and repeated by one person. It can serve as a mantra can be repeated again and again.</p>
<p>To be effective, an affirmation must be repeated. Repetition works and influences of the subconscious, which in turn motivates a person to acting out his affirmation. A person who creates the affirmation should be deeply involved in the words he’ll be used, so he will be able to actualize his affirmation. Writing words that one believes in can be very powerful, and can be used to create an affirmation.</p>
<p>However, creation of a single affirmation and repeating a million times would not make affirmation state of mind. The important thing is to live with affirmation and to be open minded enough to do the things that would help affirmation to be a reality. Feeling the affirmation and applying in day life will help the affirmation becomes reality.</p>
<p>Although affirmation is generally used to make a better person, it can also be used to boost or confirm the value of another person. By affirming the existence of another person, you help to build self-esteem.</p>
<p>Affirmation is a very simple thing that can make a big difference in the life of a person. This can be a great motivator and can make things happen.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Subliminal learning is the use of techniques that allow people to learn, even without any conscious effort at all. As regards to, exposure to stimuli that are not or barely aware of &#8211; to display images on the screen at times barely audible, the words are repeated again and again in a volume above the threshold hearing, or other such stimuli. The discovery of these methods has aroused the enthusiasm of many people because of their ability to enhance the learning process and to acquire new skills more effective and painless.</p>
<p>The possibilities are endless. Imagine, if this were true, would be able to learn new things without having to tighten their belt and do the dirty work. For example, it was argued that learning a language is theoretically possible to use subliminal techniques &#8211; no need books, teachers and other learning tools, with the exception of the team Subliminal learning. You do not waste time learning from boring language. You might have subliminal on your computer while you do other things &#8211; and in some programs &#8211; even while you sleep.<br />
<span id="more-12"></span>Some common applications include subliminal learning new languages, vocabulary, music, and even programs of behavior modification.</p>
<p>It may seem ridiculous at first, but once a good understanding of learning theories &#8211; and the potential and limitations of subliminal learning &#8211; you realize it really is not unlikely, after all. For example, there are actually things you do every day we learn, even if they are made no conscious effort to do so.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-13" style="margin-left: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;" title="thinking" src="http://www.innerdivine.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/thinking.jpg" alt="thinking" width="300" height="225" />Ever wondered how a song got stuck in your head even if you hate the song and did your best not to pay attention to that? Somehow, the chorus of the song meat finds its way into your subconscious and never disappears, right?</p>
<p>What about words? Have not you wondered how a particular word came into his vocabulary, although he never agreed to try to memorize the word or use it on purpose? You&#8217;ve probably heard the word somewhere &#8211; perhaps at work or friends, or even television or radio, and suddenly hop, have permanent residence in your head &#8211; without notice.</p>
<p>Now, looking at these examples, people began to wonder about the possibilities if you could push the envelope and take advantage of this particular whim, in a learning process somehow &#8220;accelerate&#8221; the pace learning among students. Thus was arose the wonders of subliminal learning.</p>
<p>Scientists have dug hard and deep on the issue of subliminal learning. Although it is theoretically possible to have these techniques do much for accelerated learning, there are always skeptics who seek empirical evidence from scientific studies before considering subliminal learning. Gradually, these researchers have come to learn more about how process and knowledge store, and receive encouraging results of its studies on subliminal learning.</p>
<p>On a small scale, are convinced that certain skills can be acquired through subliminal learning &#8211; particularly those who are not &#8220;high&#8221; data processing such as patterns, words, figures and other visual data easily. Other skills such as languages and mathematics are &#8220;high process&#8221; skills that require attention and thinking when you&#8217;re done. However, learning these skills is beneficial even when learned about subliminal learning.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Are there still original ideas in the world?”<br />
“I hit a brilliant idea, what can I do?”<br />
“I have failed many times before that I cannot think of anything else to solve this problem”.</p>
<p>These statements reflect the thought of a person who has renounced creativity. Unfortunately, many people share this mindset. They had never viewed creativity as a tool to improve or improvise in life in all its diversity.</p>
<p>A situation that requires a solution can be approached in various ways. There is no single way to solve a problem. Being creative opens new horizons and can bring many benefits. Creativity can sometimes be misinterpreted as an obstinate attitude. Some people think that insisting on doing things differently is a sign of stubbornness.</p>
<p><span id="more-8"></span>Never hold a good idea. Everyone is free to interpret in their own way. Any interpretation is the creativity at work by itself. A person who enjoys creative thinking can easily find creative solutions to situations that require a quick solution.</p>
<p>For example, a man’s car stalled on a deserted road, due to a rubber hose leaking on the cooling system. No luck! Of all places, it had to occur in remote locations.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-9" style="margin-left: 20px; margin-bottom: 10px;" title="bubble" src="http://www.innerdivine.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/bubble.jpg" alt="bubble" width="200" height="150" />If he has a gum in his pocket, he may well be a solution at hand. Top of the gum and patch the leak. To keep the gum in place, tie it with a cloth. This quick fix may do the trick if he can drive for miles without overheating the engine to a service station to have replaced the leaking pipe.</p>
<p>There was a television series called &#8220;MacGyver.&#8221; The main character is a type extremely creative and crafty. Whenever you&#8217;re in a good solution, try to find a way to cope with quick fixes available materials around.</p>
<p>In a way, creativity is a learning process never stops. Learning, the benefits are incalculable, you can use in real situations.</p>
<p>To be creative may need you to thinking outside the box, your spirit of adventure in the rare. You can never be sure of his ideas until proven otherwise. Although there is no perceived danger involved, it is always worth trying.</p>
<p>Inventions are the product of creative minds. The field of science, in any branch you can play, is an invention itself. Without creative minds, science would have been a neglected area of knowledge.</p>
<p>It should be noted that most adaptations to improve or improvise are aimed at improving current conditions. In analyzing the claims of honest creativity, the intention is to achieve good for all and the desire to build a lasting peace. After all, that intention is what counts most.</p>
<p>Erich Fromm wrote clearly that, “The conditions of creation are: to be puzzled, to concentrate, to accept conflict and tension, being born every day and have a sense of self.”</p>
