Understandably so. Nobody wants to be a machine.<br \/>And yet there is a similarity that&#8217;s so obvious that you can no longer &#8220;not see&#8221; it once you have understood it:  <\/p>\n<p><strong>Both systems process information according to fixed rules.<\/strong><br \/>And if you ignore these rules, you will eventually get results that surprise you &#8211; even though they are logical.<\/p>\n<h2>The human computer: three components, one process<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at a computer first.<\/p>\n<p>At its core, a computer consists of three elements:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Input<\/strong> &#8211; information comes in (e.g. via keyboard, mouse, microphone).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Processing<\/strong> &#8211; a system processes this information (e.g. processor + operating system).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Output<\/strong> &#8211; a result appears (e.g. on the screen, as a sound, as an action).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Let&#8217;s transfer that to you:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Input<\/strong>: your senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Processing<\/strong>: your mind &#8211; especially your subconscious with your stored beliefs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Output<\/strong>: your conscious perception &#8211; that&#8217;s what you call &#8220;reality&#8221;.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The point isn&#8217;t whether you&#8217;re a computer.<br \/>The point is: <strong>your system works like a system.<\/strong><br \/>And systems produce reliable results &#8211; depending on what you &#8220;give&#8221; them.<\/p>\n<h2>What happens if the system is fed the wrong information?<\/h2>\n<p>Ask yourself the following question:<\/p>\n<p>What happens if you feed your computer with incorrect information for years, install software indiscriminately, allow viruses, change system files and never clean up?<\/p>\n<p>The answer is banal:<br \/>It becomes slow, unstable and unreliable. Not because it is &#8220;evil&#8221;, but because that&#8217;s how the system works. <\/p>\n<p>Now apply this question to yourself:<\/p>\n<p>What happens when you feed your mind with illogical, strange, unexamined thoughts for years?<br \/>When you collect beliefs like &#8220;downloads&#8221; without checking whether they serve you &#8211; or block you?<\/p>\n<p>In this case the answer is equally banal:<br \/><strong>Your thinking becomes restless, your state unstable, your perception distorted &#8211; and you then call it &#8220;stress&#8221;, &#8220;anxiety&#8221;, &#8220;exhaustion&#8221; or &#8220;bad luck&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not because &#8220;life is against you&#8221;, but because <strong>cause and effect<\/strong> are always running.<\/p>\n<h2>The great fallacy: &#8220;Thinking has no consequences&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>Many people believe this:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can think what I want.

Always. <\/p>\n<p>The reason why you often don&#8217;t recognize the consequences immediately is simple:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Your thinking is largely subconscious (unconscious).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So you don&#8217;t see the process &#8211;
