What's in Your Reservoir?   I am very accommodating. I ask no questions. I accept whatever you give me. I do whatever I am told.   I do not presume to change anything you think, say, or do; I file it all away in perfect order, quickly and efficiently, and then return it to you exactly as you gave it to me.   Sometimes you call me your memory.   I am the reservoir into which you toss anything your heart or mind chooses to deposit there.   I work night and day; I never rest, and nothing can impede my activity.   The thoughts you send me are categorized and filed, and my filing system never fails.   I am truly your servant who does your bidding without hesitation or criticism.   I cooperate when you tell me that you are "this" or "that" and I play it back as you give it.  I am most agreeable.  Since I do not think, argue, judge, analyze, question, or make decisions, I accept impressions easily.   I am going to ask you to sort out what you send me, however my files are getting a little cluttered and confused.  I mean, please discard those things that you do not want returned to you.   What is my name?  Oh, I thought you knew!   I am your subconscious.      ----Margaret E. White     What's in your reservoir?  What is your reality?  What do you want to discard?          "Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality."             Earl Nightingale   "Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor, play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image.  What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives."             Robert Collier   "Whatever you believe with feeling becomes your reality."             Brian Tracy   "You affect your subconscious mind by verbal repetition."             W. Clement Stone            I've got an extensive filing system and it never fails either.  When my reservoir fills with negativities, I find that the balance beam is elusive.  That is not how I want to live my life.  When I am off balance I must examine what I planted in my subconscious and remove the weeds for if left alone they will consume the space.   I have to "get over it" and empty the reservoir of its negativity.  Only then can the positive flow into my life.    Have a fantastic week and discard those negative files in your reservoir. Do NOT return to sender.   Stephanie   P.S.
