Cognitive thought as our Logical thinking mind

I have been a business consultant and life coach for many years. Through my experiences in helping countless people increase their professional and personal effectiveness that I have come to realize the key to real success. It comes down to, not “What” we’re doing but “How” we’re doing it.

Most often, what hinders success and holds people back isn’t related to any specific action that they may or may not be doing. It’s rather about the general methods they use and the way they’re doing things. I decided to write this book to highlight the emphasis most people place on cognitive. In so doing they’re overlooking or giving little heed to other equally essential modes of thought.

I define Cognitive thought as our logical thinking mind. For most of us, this is the basis of our conscious reality and defines our success as a species. For this reason, it’s essential and shouldn’t be underestimated. However, if you consider cognitive thinking in evolutionary terms, it’s a relative newcomer to our minds.

Because the other processes of the mind and modes of thinking are non-cognitive and so much part of us, we tend to take them for granted. We underestimate their impact on our daily lives.

Our mental process becomes far more effective when mental patterns are blended to support each other. Thinking doesn’t operate in a vacuum. For most, there is no way to focus on just one thing. Even now, as you read this book, how many other thoughts and ideas are running through your head?

The more synergy you can develop in your thinking, the more effective it becomes. The more active your thinking, the better chance you have to use it to make desired changes in your life. To develop control of this area, you need to develop a basic understanding of the science of how the mind works. The study of the mind on both a practical and experiential level has defined the character of my life.
