Thread: About the conscious mind, the mental bottleneck (or blocker)




About the conscious mind, the mental bottleneck (or blocker)

I've been thinking about which mental states actually block
creativity 
and free impulses. I feel that there is a part of the mind
which tries 
to force thoughts into a rigid and standardized pattern (of
socially 
acceptable) thoughts. All thoughts which do not correspond
to 
that "commonly accepted" view of the world are
denied attention. When 
I'm in that state, it seems my feelings prevent me from
expressing 
myself freely, and liberating what I have on my mind. I care
about what 
people are going to say if xxx...

I'm wondering how most people deal with that experience. How
do they 
squelch the squelcher? For people who rarely feel inhibited,
how do you 
manage that? 
Those self-imposed limitations make me angry...
