Most people don't actively and deliberately use their own brains.
Your brain is like a machine without an "off" switch. If you don't give it something to do, it just runs on and on until it gets bored.
If you put someone in a sensory deprivation tank where there's no external experience, he'll start generating internal experience. If your brain is sitting around without anything to do, it's going to start doing something, and it doesn't seem to care what it is.
You may care, but it doesn't. For example, have you ever been just sitting around minding your own business, or sound asleep, when suddenly your brain flashes a picture that scares the pants off you?
How often do people wake up in the middle of the night because they just relived an ecstatically pleasurable experience? If you've had a bad day, then later your brain will show you vivid reruns, over and over again.
It's not enough that you had a bad day; you can ruin the whole evening, and perhaps part of next week, too. Most people don't stop there.
How many of you think about unpleasant things that happened long ago? It's as if your brain is saying, "Let's do it again! We've got an hour before lunch, let's think about something that's really depressing. Maybe we can get angry about it three years too late."
Have you heard about "unfinished business"? It's finished; you just didn't like the way it came out.
One woman told me that she was happy all the time; she didn't let things get to her. I asked her how she did it, and she said "Well, those unpleasant thoughts come into my mind, but I just turn the brightness down." Brightness is one of the "submodalities" of the visual modality. Submodalities are universal elements that can be used to change any visual image, no matter what the content is. The auditory and kinesthetic modalities also have submodalities, but for now we'll play with the visual submodalities. Brightness is only one of many things you can vary
Submodalities are the smaller elements within each modality. For example, a few of the visual Submodalities are brightness, color, size, distance, location, and focus. Knowledge of Submodalities opens up a whole new realm of change patterns that are even faster, easier, and more specific.
