OBVIOUS APPLICATION continued

By the age seven the socio-cultural milieu of the child has installed a functional, base line reference for life, software (mind) into its hardware (brain).
Now the child is crippled, instead of expressing himself freely and exploring life, as he was doing until now, he is forced to live life out of the limitations implanted into its mind.
For example, someone who himself was poor at mathematics and was afraid of it tells the child that it’s a difficult subject. The child will initially try to get a confirmation of this from his parents (who even without their awareness are a child’s referencing system and he obtains their seal of approval before accepting, storing, archiving an acceptable thought or discarding an incorrect one) , the child also has a counter check mechanism of his socio-cultural milieu. If his parents do not support this idea or his friends do not concur or he learns by example from his teacher, that mathematics is an enjoyable subject he will then be saved. But if all of these referencing mechanisms agree with the belief that “yes mathematics is a difficult subject” then the child is doomed to develop a handicap into his possibilities. If this idea that “mathematics is a difficult subject” gets incorporated into his software then the next time around he touches his mathematics book his mind would already be flashing the red lights and siren of “DIFFICULT “so bright and so loud that nothing would make sense and even if it does he will sure enough make the silly mistakes, subconsciously though, and ensure poor grades and hence the sustenance of this wrong belief again and again.
This is what we end up doing all our lives. Some idea gets implanted into our mind and we start living it out. Some child gets implanted with the right ideas about success, he starts living that idea (until of course that idea gets shaken by some wrong or negative idea via some adverse incident) on the other hand another child gets implanted with wrong ideas of failure, low self-esteem, poor capabilities etc and he starts living them out with failure and disappointments galore.
If were to keenly observe our lives we would find that we are looping in a circle of “same situation different faces, same circumstances different places” that is we are continuously living our own past good or bad. We have become trapped in limitations laid out by our own mind and like a tiger in a zoo cage, we can only go this far (as far as the cage of our own self imposed limitations allows us to).
And this is where the concept of CHOICE comes into action.
