With regard to learning, it means a process of gradual assimilation, often unconscious. The term has been applied to “dream learning,” but I am using it in a broader sense here to refer to “unconscious learning.”

Website design By BotEap.comWhen we first learn to speak, we learn by being around other people and simply learning by repetition, by osmosis, from people who already know how to speak. Most of us don’t have to go to school to learn our native language. We just pick it up because it is all around us. It doesn’t matter what the language is: English, French, Chinese… if it’s what everyone else speaks, we automatically learn the basics as children.

Companies will find famous opinion leaders and pay them to use their products. A classic example: Tiger Woods. You hardly ever see a picture of him without his Nike cap or jersey. His logo is all over his kit. Nike has paid Tiger millions of dollars for his “endorsement” of his products.

For example, you can do this by listening to various self-help audio books, putting up positive statement posters, or listening to Power Affirmation recordings. I like to let the recordings play in the background while I do other things. Often I’m not even paying my full attention, it’s just “white noise” in the background. This is different from “subliminal learning” because the words can be heard clearly. I find that by doing this consistently, Power Affirmations positively influence my thoughts so that the ideas are automatically there when I need them.

Website design By BotEap.comThis is just one example of how I use my Power Affirmation recordings. There are also times when I actively participate in the affirmation. The point is that there are multiple ways to use them. The more you listen (even when you’re not really paying much attention), the more they’ll help you. The more good “stuff” you put in, the more good “stuff” will come out.
