Where do ideas come from?
One minute they are not there, the next they appear in full colour in your mind. A never existing before concept or visionary future, for instance, coming out of nowhere, and arriving in your head. Something, you are convinced, that you could not have thought up yourself.
If you are not aware of conceiving them in the first place, where on Earth, or some other world, have they come from?
Is your mind merely a portal to receive suggestions from a higher place? A kind of window into another dimension or existence inside your mentality?
Well,……yes and no.
Let me explain – there IS a somewhere that delivers them.
From Out of Nowhere or Somewhere?
Firstly, let me tell you this. You are more than only one mind. You are two. Two together.
A joint mentality. And this is where the belief of portals comes from. The regular view is the mind is a mortal fixed brain and finite to many and therefore any super visions have to have another source. Typically this is read as a message from a spirit world or some alternative universe that flows through the portal into the mind. As the individual had no prior knowledge of the idea/information, it can’t have come from them. It’s supernatural in nature arriving through a portal the mind is connected to.
At this point I fully admit to having been very interested in all things spiritual for many years. I explored many aspects of spiritual matters. Something didn’t quite fit. No matter how much I loved to believe in higher beings intervening to assist us, I also knew that our mind exists as a higher mechanism in itself that has ample power to pull previously unconsidered options seemingly from out of nowhere.
Well not quite nowhere.
From our subconscious. If there is anything mystical at work here, it’s in this mysterious zone. It’s a kind of secret compartment that stores everything we have ever heard, seen, been told, learnt about, felt, understood etc. But here’s the beautiful thing. It’s also the location where our own personal insights/viewpoints/awarenesses and individual mind elements are kept deep in reserve. Our bigger unique blueprint.
And it’s in precise moments when current known thinking stands down, our second mind releases a suggestion from those back up reserves.
And that’s where the unknown becomes known.
Your Super Second Mind.
In addition to your conscious mind, in the background you have a second mind.
A super mind in effect.
Your first mind is the one you would recognise you use day in, day out. The task driven, work mode for life mind. The mind that helps you function to complete your day. To survive, shall we say. What I shall call, the human mind, or Mind Number One.
Then there is Mind Number Two. The highly creative, innovative, supremely and powerfully original subconscious mind that keeps all the fun stuff while the other mind deals with the boring everyday. Plus it holds your own personal destiny potential (more of this in a sec).
Trouble is pretty much most of us stay in boring everyday mode. We rarely, or only briefly, open up the fun mind. Therefore we only operate in a ‘need-to-do’ and ‘need-to-think-about’ type setting plus some fear worrying thrown in. Our mega mechanism for higher evolution we all carry in our brain sits there twiddling its thumbs. Which is why when you are having a long soak in the bath or away for a few days mini-break, human mind No.1 powers down. Then the super idea stuff gets its chance. Boom! A sudden flash of inspiration hits your mind.
It IS supernatural….well, super natural really i.e. massively natural.
Universe or Youniverse?
Could our minds be hooked into the Universe? Or part of our own special future world in our head?
I can’t be 100% sure, but I’d land on the side of the second option overall. I think there is something beyond our awareness, but it seems that the Gods are tormenting us if we are at the end of their portals. That being true means we must await their permission or clemency to put some life help in our mind. We would be their puppets.
I would suggest there has been imprinted in each of us, when we were created, an advanced instruction manual. In that exact fusion at conception each human to be was given a unique and amazing mindset in SuperMind No.2 that contains a special embryonic set of ideas, concepts, visions, and evolutionary potential. When we learn to access that field, a whole array of possibilities fire up. Not when in the traffic queue or supermarket, but when our front human mind is on an extended tea break.
Now when you suddenly imagine an awesome business idea or envision how you could change your future, you will know what is occurring. The portal isn’t open, your own SupermInd is. And it’s showing you some of the phenomenal stuff that was put there when your incredible life was instigated. So you can instigate a higher life here for yourself today. It’s an eternal echo.
Your mind isn’t a portal, it’s a master plan prototype for you to follow into production.

Five thoughts, ideas, insights, or quotes to power up your mind to think differently and creatively about life and who we are. Put all previous thinking away and open up a brand new world of the Supermind. YOUR SuperMind.
This week – New Economics.
There is plenty of current thinking that believes that the world economy is broken. All the previous economic structures and systems put in place are failing and it’s time to rethink how to build a workable financial future. And that’s what I’m about to do this week in SuperMind Saturday. The moment for new economics is here.
1. Money For The Few.
History has shown that financiers have grabbed more and more control of the world over the years. This means the greater share of world money has been in the hands of a dwindling number of the population.
How do we reverse this? How do we ensure that money does not end up with fewer and fewer people who decide the destiny of the planet?
2. Changing Our Economics.
Famous naturalist David Attenborough brilliantly said, ‘Real success can only come if there is a change in our societies and in our economics’. To me that’s exactly right. But harder to set in motion.
What is the first change we should make or enforce that will lead us to a better economic space for most people?
3. New Seeds Needed.
As in nature life grow through reproduction. And much of nature’s means to do that is to seed the ground for fresh future growth. This has been replicated by the banking system via business loans and start-up grants called Seed Funding. That activity has petered out. New seeds are required for new ground. Local ideas have to flourish. Fledgling enterprises require early help. Business can’t be big if it can’t get going in the first place.
How do we seed the future without banks? Could part of our taxes be redirected to this purpose? Or, what are the seeds we can sow that aren’t necessarily money funding (like brain banks)?
4. End the Global?
The last five decades have seen the demise of thousands of smaller companies. Good localised or national ones. They have been swamped by huge global corporations that drink up all the money and squeeze out businesses that are trying to hold on. This trend shows no end. This will only continue more unabated.
How do we protect the local and smaller companies? Or, how do we prevent this steady march to huge global domination that’s killing communities and high street trade? Limit them in some way?
5. A Society For the Future.
Economics builds society. It dictates our work, trade, distribution, spending, taxation, and shared resources. This, in turn, drives how we live our lives both mentally, emotionally, and physically. This is society. So, economics are the developer of lifestyles and life circumstances in this way. Look around today and see the economics of the last twenty or so years in action. Which leads me to the big questions here.
Should economics have this power anymore? Are economics no longer creating but harming? Could we base our new societies of the future on another ethos we can all buy into? What is our economic future??
Food for mental thought for your mind about economics. New economics maybe?

Your mind holds a secret. A secret that is an untapped power.
It’s a power we are rarely aware of. That’s because that power only shows itself in unexpected ways and situations. Unexpected and decidedly unplanned.
One famous voice is a first class example of this.
Anyone over the age of 45 has grown up with Bugs Bunny. A large as life cartoon rabbit with prominent teeth…..and an unforgettable voice. That voice was spoken by Mel Blanc. He was an American radio personality and voice artist who was responsible for hundreds of character voices and vocal sound effects in a career that spanned six decades. But, it was Bugs Bunny that became his unmistakable fame and fortune.
In 1961 though Mel was involved in a serious head on car accident. This resulted in a coma which lasted 21 days. There were few signs of consciousness and, despite everything doctors tried, he remained in his stupor. With hope about gone, one day a doctor tried talking to Blanc in Bugs Bunny style and asked, ‘Hey Bugs Bunny, are you there? How are you?’.
Then, out of the blue, a weak voice called back from the bed in Bugs’ voice, ‘Just fine doc, how are you?’. (See Mel Blanc explain in his own words).
From this point he began to gradually waken and returned to full health. Something deep in the mind was still working and powered up his return to life. Some connection was made to Bugs Bunny that drew life back into his whole body. The mind that seemed dead, was still very much alive. He would go on to live for nearly another 30 years until his eighties.
The unknown power of the mind showed doctors what it could do.
Superhuman Powers.
We have power beyond our awareness. A power of pure force in the mind that transfers to the body.
In 2006 Lydia Angiyou was at home in Ivujivik, her remote village home of 300 people in northern Quebec, Canada. Outside her two boys were playing happily until their worried shouts got her attention. There, making straight for her children, was a 320kg bear that dwarfed her in size and sheer muscle. Most people would have ran away rather than confront the wild animal. Her mind knew only one thing – to defend and protect her young boys.
She faced up to the bear screaming at it but it swatted her aside, knocking her to the ground. Undaunted, she got to her feet and began an all out fight with the huge beast, her mind driven only by saving her family. The commotion was overheard by a neighbour who grabbed a rifle and killed the bear. Despite her ordeal, Mrs Angiyou only experienced minor injuries.
Witness this again in 2013 in the US state of Oregon. Teenage sisters Hannah and Hayley were out walking their dogs near their home when they heard their father’s cries in pain and desperation. Upon finding him they came across a shocking scene. Attempting to pull out a tree stump in the garden his tractor flipped over and pinned him underneath by his chest. The tractor weighed 3000lbs.
Again something in the girls’ minds switched on to what they had to do. They had to remove the tractor or their father would be crushed to death by it. Even though the young teens were very slight sized in body frames, they successfully lifted the machine, many times their weight, and saved their Pa.
As their father, Jeff Smith, later said, ‘It’s amazing. You hear about this stuff…being able to pick cars up and slide people out. You never realise it’s really there until you actually witness it’.
His only injuries were a broken wrist, lacerations, and bruising.
Untapped Strength.
These true events perfectly illustrate how the mind holds stunning reserves of available power.
They also prove how this power is an untapped source of strength we possess.
Now this doesn’t mean you have to face some critical situation like the women above. What it typifies is that your mind has hidden forcefulness that you can access when you have a highly challenging test or task in front of you. In fact, it’s almost such scenarios that triggers this power to activate and become available for super use.
And that’s why I’m writing this blog post. If you are facing drastic times or a seemingly insurmountable obstacle that, at first look, appears hopeless. It’s not. It requires your mind to go into super fight mode. To face the dilemma head on.
If you can remove any panic and see the issue as a bear/tractor/heavy weight stopping you, the mind will give you mental brawn to get straight on in there and bust the difficulty. You can tell because it will guide you ‘to do what you have to do’ to win, get back control, and/or end this headache once and for all.
You MUST trust the powerful pictures it will project across you head. Then follow them.
Fight back and fight through through supersolving. Ask your mind, it’s ready and prepared. Always!
Big Brain Belief.
So much of our brain power is unused, untapped, and under utilised.
We prefer to only use it for everyday menial tasks – basic jobs to complete, making sure we do the washing, remembering where we put something we need at home and so on. Nothing big, nothing momentous. This mind effort works at a low level never employing it’s real ability to evolve more.
And that’s real story here. The tales above only epitomise that so much lays dormant in our mental banks awaiting us to exploit it. We shouldn’t wait until a frightful drama arrives to open up our supermind power. Otherwise our life remains limited and limiting.
Put the mobile phone down and stop scrolling through rubbish that does nothing for your life. Stop binge watching on Netflix. End thinking just about your next holiday or online clothes sales. Begin USING more of your mind. Have more big brain belief.
You have so much superpower and it’s all in your head!!

Life isn’t complicated. In fact, the very heights our life will reach (or not), is down to FIVE decisions that decide everything.
Just five!
And yet they influence our full destiny, and continue to decide our life for all our life, until we know just what they are. These tell us who we are, what the prospects will be for that person, and define the whole significance and direction of who we become and what we experience.
They are the same for the celebrity as well as the average person on the street. They are the ones that have mapped out your life from day 1. And they are the decisions that make a pauper out of a millionaire, or a self made success out of a failure.
Just ask Warwick Davis.
Warwick stands only 3ft 6 inches tall but stands very tall as an accomplished actor. He was born with a rare bone growth disorder that leads to dwarfism. For most people with the same condition, that restriction alone has defined their life from the very start. Not so Warwick. He made the resolution that he was more, far more, than the size of his self. He would not accept anything else than a bigger future.
An opportunity appeared to act as an extra playing an Ewok in Return of the Jedi. As a firm Star Wars fan he jumped at it without any question. But chance was on his side even more. When fellow actor Kenny Baker fell ill, Warwick’s self-confidence as himself led him to being offered the prime role of Wicket. He excelled and began to craft a career in such roles that he became the ‘go-to’ person in films and TV series such as Willow, The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, and Merlin.
Now, years later, he is a BAFTA winner and one of the highest earning support actors of all time.
All because of the decision he took to define and decide his own life.
Famous and Fragile.
Being famous is a wonderful thing, right?
Well not for some because of what their mind is telling them.
Legendary pop star Michael Jackson, Transformers actress Megan Fox, Twilight actor Robert Pattinson, and singer Tom Grennan who has just spoke about it, have experienced (and still do), the mental obsessive disorder called Body Dysmorphia. No matter how beautiful, pretty, slim, or perfectly formed their bodies may be to the world, they only see ugliness, awful figures, or disfiguring body parts in some way. The naturally attractive Fox captures it when she said, ‘I don’t ever see myself the way other people see me’.
This is a living curse of vision stimulated by the mind. Whatever amazing careers they may have, whatever awards and praise they have won, whatever the millions of people who adore them, they are ashamed and depressed at themselves in the mirror.
It’s easy to say that if we were in their position we would love it, BUT, their tainted self image is a personal version we carry somewhere in our mentality. Not bodily perhaps, but in some other way for sure. And carry it in the 5 decisions that have defined and decided our whole life path, it’s level, and it’s progress.
The five that have been hidden but still show in who we are.
The Not so Famous Five.
These true stories above reflect how our own mental opinion about ourselves will dictate how and where we go.
Warwick Davis had a less than appealable look but he set his mind to believing in what he could accomplish. The celebs listed here (with countless other famous people who never admitted it) had fame, but their minds saw another view of who they were.
And that’s where the 5 decisions that decide life come in. There is NO specific list if you are expecting one. The type that’s some secret set of choices that will set you free and apart from the rest of the world. There IS the 5 decisions you have carried in your mind about you, life, and the world that has decided how your life has turned out. Or, in your head, should and will turn out. Ones like these –
- You never rated yourself as clever or smart so best that you take a solid, simple job that just about pays the bills and takes little pushing of yourself to do.
- Looks wise you thought you were fairly plain and everyone else seemed popular and attractive. Your response – to not be the centre of attention so you had few partners and stayed single (or married another unassuming person).
- Finances were a struggle growing up so you believed money was scarce or limited. Therefore you never buy much new or spend your income on treats and rewards keeping it in the bank sitting there instead.
- Sport was never a natural fit for you so you never did much exercise. Now your body feels old and weight is hard to shift but it’s OK as you don’t do fitness, it’s not your thing.
- Playing safe is best. You have developed that belief so you still have the same house and job and rarely travel abroad. You don’t like to try new things as you don’t know what could go wrong.
Such scenarios are what has played out in all our lives. The successful have taken on their mindset and defeated it. The truly happy have won over any thoughts that tell them otherwise. The winners are those who decided to re-wire their brain to focus only on the end prize. And then go get it.
The rest of us have been held back by our 5 main decisions.
We are a self-fulfilling prophecy!
If your life has never matched up to what it could have been, take a good look in your main areas. Somewhere in them are the 5 decisions that have took you there and stuck you there. It’s time to know them. And it’s time to change them.
To make new decision that will give you the new life that always seemed out of reach. But it’s not far away at all.
You are only 5 decisions away from complete life change. Make them!!

Five thoughts, ideas, insights, or quotes to power up your mind to think differently and creatively about life and who we are. Put all previous thinking away and open up a brand new world of the Supermind. YOUR SuperMind.
This week – World Peace.
Back in the day beauty pageant contestants were often asked what they most wanted in the future. The majority made one simple statement; ‘World peace’. That was then (fifty or so years ago), but world peace seems as far away and as fragile as it’s ever been. SuperMind Saturday therefore has to get involved. Let’s switch our minds on.
Let’s begin.
- American politician Ginny Brown-Waite made a telling declaration when she said, ‘The UN has failed…in its mission to promote world peace’. The UN was once the bastion of ensuring conflicts were controlled and not allowed to develop. They do seem powerless to do that in the current time. Who then do we turn to for world peace? Who is independent enough to help keep the peace that is fair to all?
- Peace is our normal human setting. We don’t strive to fight, we prefer to live without hostility and bloodshed. And yet, war and fighting continue today as much as they did in ancient times. We seemed to have learnt very little. Why do humans not want peace and prefer war so often?
- Ask any normal citizen on the street and they will say they want peace in the world. Everyday people never choose battle and suffering. Therefore it is one or two leaders that lead their country out of peace into combat despite our wishes. How can we work to ensure no warfare can ever start without the public as a whole deciding it is the right, and only, thing to do?
- Children love. Children care. Children want to be friends. Yet, they become adults who seek anything but peace. We teach children to be good, to be kind, to think about others…..then they turn into the opposite. What is happening in our society that good little people become angry, attacking adults, often so soon as their early twenties?
- Peace may never be happening across all of the world, but peace is happening in MOST of the world at any one time. The majority of the population are peaceful live-and-let-live humans. Which is why the news promotes the opposite and the media seems to wait for it. How can we get them to find more positive stories? Are they to blame at spreading a message that the world is not largely a very peaceful place? And the big question of the day….how can we give world peace a better PR and image?
OK SuperMinds, keep the peace and share the good things with each other. It’s our world.
And that wraps up another SuperMind Saturday. Thank you for being here for the SuperMind time. Keep thinking about these through the week to open up more of your mind and its potential. Consider more, generate ideas more, think on bigger possibilities more, activate your connection to your personal higher mind. Employ your SuperMInd and Super Think!
See you next time for more super thinking.
