“The Power of Paradigms” – What is a Paradigm & How to change them

what is  paradigm? How to change a paradigm?

Change Your Paradigm. Change Your Life.  – by Bob Proctor

What is a paradigm?

I can tell you one thing, it’s not twenty cents! That was the sarcastic response I received once when I taught this in a class. The heckler was a full-grown man of almost sixty. He had never heard the word paradigm and thought he’d be funny. We all got a good laugh, and then I went on to explain what paradigms actually were. 

While it sounds like a good joke, paradigms are serious business. They literally control your life. A paradigm is a set of assumptions, attitudes, and concepts that are buried deep within the subconscious mind. These paradigms control our perceptions of the world around us. Everything our minds process is filtered first through this system of paradigms.

Can paradigms be harmful?

Yes, paradigms are like a set of computer programs and they aren’t always good for us. Sometimes they are governed by limiting beliefs or ignorance, and even past trauma. Some belief systems buried in our subconscious mind aren’t ours! That’s right, our parents program in some of them during childhood. The society around us programs some mindsets into our belief systems without us even realizing it. What if these paradigms no longer serve us?

Don’t panic! I have good news!

Paradigms can be changed. It takes effort, but they are not permanent. The first step is to recognize it and then decide on the programming you’d like to have. After deciding what you want, you can start the reprogramming process. 

In the next post we will talk about how to reprogram those paradigms into ones that will bring sucess and happiness.

Change Your Paradigm, Change Your Life


When you’re doing something that’s out of the ordinary, your mental programing, your paradigm, will try and stop you. If you want to win, you must keep going. Your paradigms may be masked in complacency, fear, worry, anxiety, insecurities, self-doubt, mental hurry and self-loathing―the result is keeping you STUCK….locked in a box and starved of your dreams and ambitions.

To change your life―you MUST change your paradigm. The change is not easy, but it’s worth it, and the results are lasting.

Synova’s Sizzling Tips for Using Your Time Wisely

So many people complain about a lack of time, but I contend we all have the same 24 hours a day.

It’s more about how we spend those hours.

There are 168 hrs/week. If you spend 40 at work, 56 hrs sleeping, and 7 hrs at the gym you still have 65 hrs left. What do you do with them? How can you make the most out of it?

#1 Say NO!

Don’t try to please everyone by taking on all their chores. Let them find someone else, or Heaven forbid

Let them find someone else, or Heaven forbid
let them do it themselves.

#2 Plan Ahead

Plan your day the night beforehand. Make a list of the top ten things you need to do and follow the list.

#3 Drop the time wasters

Don’t spend hours on Facebook scrolling through your news feed. Don’t sit and watch TV for three hours before going to bed. Find something more productive to do.

#4 Auto University

How many hours a week do you spend commuting? Why not create your own Commute University.Studies show you can get an entire college education in your car on your way to work! Pop in a seminar, audiobook

Studies show you can get an entire college education in your car on your way to work! Pop in a seminar, audiobook or podcast & learn while you drive.

#5 Delegate

What are you currently doing that someone else could handle? Delegate the tasks that take up all your time so you can be free to work on your goals.

All that we achieve and all that we fail to achieve is the direct result of our own thoughts. Self-control is strength.

Right thought is mastery. Calmness is power. ” ― James Allen, As a Man Thinketh

What’s Holding You Back? Is it a Limit or a Limiting Belief?

Image by Junah Rosales from Pixabay 


What’s holding you back from achieving your heart’s desire? Sure, there might be logical reasons, but most of the time, it’s nothing more than a few limiting beliefs.

What are limiting beliefs?

Before May 6th, 1954, science said running a mile in under four minutes was impossible. The entire world believed it. It sounds very logical. Unfortunately, it was not true. Read that again. It was not true!

Roger Bannister was determined to break the barrier, and he did on May 6th. That day he finished at 3: 59. With one race, Bannister broke a limiting belief held by the entire world. Think about it. This belief was held by humanity for six thousand years of recorded history, and one man broke it with one amazing foot race. 

So let me ask you a question. Think about all of the reasons you can’t achieve success. Write them down. Then I want you to study them carefully. Are they limits, or are they limiting beliefs?

If you think Roger Bannister was just some superhuman, let me tell you another tidbit of information. His record only lasted 46 days! Somebody else broke it six weeks later. Now more than 1400 men have broken the barrier.

So was it really a limit, or was it a mindset? It was a limiting belief.

How many times have you told yourself? You can’t succeed because you went to the wrong school or didn’t have enough money. If you study the most successful people in the world, you will find that most of them didn’t go to the right school, have the right name, or have enough money.

You’ll find people with dyslexia that failed school. When you start studying successful people, you’ll find high school dropouts, college dropouts, poverty-stricken people, and people of all sizes, shapes, and colors. It doesn’t matter what your limiting belief is. It can be overcome.

I think about one example that hit me hard. When I first heard it. I was writing true crime stories back then and listened to an interview given by Sammy the bull. For those who don’t know, he was John Gotti’s underboss. In this interview, he blamed everything on the fact that he had dyslexia and didn’t do good in school. No one was there to guide him, so he just went off the rails. Now, this sounds legitimate. But then listen to this. Richard Branson has dyslexia too. He didn’t do well in school either. At the time of this writing, he is worth 3 billion dollars!

If that doesn’t surprise you enough, guess who else is on the list of famous dyslexics on Google.? Albert Einstein! Yes, you read that right. The man known for his IQ and genius had dyslexia.

So let me ask you again. Why can’t you achieve what you’re going after? Are those excuses valid? Maybe you need to learn a new skill or find a mentor, but you can overcome your perceived limits most of the time.

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year: Not Really

Original Image Credit: Image by NoName_13 from Pixabay 


It’s the most wonderful time of the year. You hear it everywhere during the holiday season, but not everyone agrees. It can be one of the most challenging times of the year if you’ve lost loved ones or suffered trauma. 


Change Your Idea of the Perfect Holiday:

Many silently suffer through the end of the year, dreading every party, event, and gathering. Why? It all starts with the mental picture we have of Christmas. We are inundated with a picturesque story of what the holiday “should” be. We suffer when our picture doesn’t match what we think is perfection. Unfortunately, no one tells us that we can change the picture.

Will changing the mental picture bring back our loved ones? No. Will it change our financial status? No. It will change your outlook on life, though. It will change your biochemistry and make you feel better. It will make the holidays seem brighter and more friendly. 

Change of Focus:

What you focus on, you feel. When we focus on the negative, we get more negative hormones, negative emotions, and negative behaviors. The same is true when we force ourselves to focus on the positive things. There are 1,440 minutes in a day. Ten minutes might be bad, but there are another 1,430 minutes left. Will you ruin the rest of the day by focusing on the ten bad moments? It sounds silly, but we do it all the time. 

This holiday season, turn your focus to the positive and see what happens. Every time that annoying co-worker spews at the mouth turn your focus to something else. Every time that manipulative family member starts, turn your focus. It’s not easy, but it’s effective.

Surviving Christmas with Gratitude:

Transform your chaotic holiday season with this journal and 5 minutes a day!

Not everyone enjoys the holidays. After losing loved ones, it’s hard to continue with the festivities, but it’s vital to learn how to live again. After suffering through trauma, it’s hard to celebrate with a loud and rowdy crowd. Did you know a daily gratitude practice will change your life, both mind, and body?

Studies have proven that our brains literally cannot be fearful, anxious, or stressed and be grateful at the same time. Did you know that? The part of the brain that handles these emotions cannot do both simultaneously. It has to shut one off to open the other. Now you can be anxious and immediately grateful afterward, but you cannot be both at the same time!

What if you reprogrammed your brain to refocus on gratitude and shut off the anxiety during this season?

With a daily gratitude practice, you will do just that!
