I stayed up listening to John Legend
and Common sing beautifully to a
very lyrically compelling song, which I first heard
as a soundtrack to the movie Selma.
"Glory", I believe it is called.

Over and over; with and without headphones
and eventually with lyrics.
All of the Lyrics were rather spectacular
and consciously written,
but...
THIS particular line struck me,
as though it was a divine message:
I felt some sort of spiritual jolt!
The words read :
" Everyday women and men become Legends"...
Wow! What carefully thought out words!
I loved it!
And so I spent several minutes
studying them over and over; almost as many times
as I listened to the song.
Then I thought to myself : Common is
speaking about those
who are already becoming Legends.
What about those who are meant to be ,
but are Not Yet Becoming Legends.
Why are they not Legends?
Could there be a reason stronger
than the influence of their Environment,
Lifestyle, Nationality, Circumstances, Opportunities and so on?
Than their personal motivation?

What about things that these
'could-be-legends-but-are-not' may not
even be aware of?
That was when an even stronger quote came to me:
" What's stopping you?
Could it be your own subconscious
agreement with yourself?
Clear your subsconscious mind
and create new agreements
#Peoplebecomelegends"...

You must be wondering what the
Subconscious mind is, and why
it could cause a problem.
Let me explain:
WHAT IS YOUR
SUBCONSCIOUS MIND?
Your subconscious mind is a massive memory bank,
with unlimited capacity.
It is the part of your 'brain' that acts automatically/ effortlessly,
without you having to think.
This is the part of you that permanently stores
everything that ever happened to you.
However there is a catch! It stores what
is not currently in your Conscious Mind.
WHAT IS YOUR
CONSCIOUS MIND?
Your conscious mind is responsible for logic and reasoning.
E.g what is 5 + 5 ?
Your answer might be 10 or perhaps 7 I hope not?
It is the part of your 'brain' that helps you,
solve that addition problem.
Get it? Conscious | SUB- conscious
WHAT IS THE
DIFFERENCE?
We already said Your conscious mind
is responsible for logic and reasoning.
In contrast, this dude Mr Unconscious,
stores all your past life
situations you've been
through and all images you've ever seen.
According to this great article on Get To Know Myself.com,
The best way to understand the subconscious mind is to look at the
example of the person who wants to learn how to drive a car.

At the beginning he wouldn't be able
to hold a conversation with
anyone while driving as he would be
focusing on the different
moves involved.
That's because he's still using his conscious mind to drive.
Few weeks later driving becomes a natural habit that happens
automatically without needing to think about it.
That person could
even start using his cell phone or talking to his friends while
driving.
This happened because the driving habit
has been transferred into
the Subconscious Mind.
CONCLUSION:

I believe that there is alot of "self growth"
that needs to happen for us to become the type of Legends that Common speaks of.
Unlocking, and CLEARING our
Subconscious minds is
a great way to do so, among others.
This is so that we would be able to act in full Capacity;
drawing (positive)
strengths and doing away with
all (negative) interruptions.
In future Blog posts, I will explain more.
***
That being said, I will carry the awareness
that your subconscious
mind is powerful into your future life, and
I hope some part of it
may be helpful to you.
Sincerely,
Sahndra Fon Dufe.
