I am sure that if you have studied any area of Personal Development or Success Principles you will already know that it is strongly taught that everything we do, we plan first.
This means that you and I do not do ANYTHING without the act being planned in the brain first.
The one TV show I watch very regularly is Charlie Rose. I love his interviews and the variety of knowledge that can be learned from watching this brilliant man’s skill at interviewing.
Across the years, Charlie has developed some specialized series of shows, and the one that interests me the most is the series on Brain Science. This is a series of 10 hours of panel discussions with Brain Scientists of varying specialties in the area of research on the Brain. It is absolutely fascinating.
Last night the discussion revealed a fact that has been taught for many many years in the arena of Personal Development. The panel were discussing and proving with a demonstration that your brain anticipates events in your life before you actually participate.
Can you see the importance of training your brain to think and plan correctly and positively?
A Simple Experiment
Two members of the panel performed a simple experiment. One gentleman held a heavy book in his hand. Another gentleman took the book away leaving the first with an uncontrollable reflex action. His whole arm went up.
Why did this happen? Because he could not anticipate the actual second that the book would be actually be removed and so his arm performed an uncontrollable action. It shot straight up.
Then it was observed that if this gentleman took the book away himself, his arm would stay in the same position. Why? Because his brain was able to anticipate the actual split second when the book would be removed, and so could send the signals to the arm to stay in place.
Well, this is my explanation in layman’s terms 
How fascinating is that?
Decision plus action = results (John Di Lemme).
What did you do today to train your brain to think, decide and act for success?

Water is purified by movement right? I remember watching fast flowing rivers and waterfalls in New Zealand. I also remember my mother often telling me that flowing water purifies itself when we would go out on picnics by the rivers.
