I'm not so sure I agree with the condition stated:
"If your mind is infinitely powerful . . ."
Infinitely powerful might be how someone would describe the Supreme Being (assuming One exists) and I know for sure that
I'm not that.
But however powerful a (human) mind may be, I, like so many others, am probably not using it as well or as much as I should be - though exercising it here on Yahoo Q&A is a good start.

The mind is the most powerful computer in the world or maybe Universe. But we only use 10% of it, mostly because of our human self. It's like our mortal limits, I think that if we are trained from birth to use our minds then maybe we would use at least 25% of it. I think that it is our human nature. I believe that if we will one day be able to use 100% we would not have limits. If only with 10% we can imagine the impossible, with 100% we could be able to make the impossible possible.

I don't think human minds are all that powerful. Granted, they are probably the most complex and intellectual brains on earth, but I think they have a looooong way to go before I'd use the words "infinitely powerful" when talking about them.

I like tying mine in knots and then trying to untangle it (giggle).
I attribute "Infinite power" to God the almighty and therefore follow the pantheistic view of the mind over the functional view of the mind.
This question got me thinking about mental retardness. The mentally retarded seem happier than the general population. Further, pets (who have even smaller minds) are super happy (unless we condition them otherwise) ... so I almost correlated a smaller mind with happiness, untill I came back to my pantheistic view which reminds me that imagination is a big function of minds, and often the mentally retarded have the most vivid imaginations .... well, here I've illistrated how I like to tie my mind in knots and then un-tie it (giggle).

I do mind exercises often and have been working on such things for about 9 or 10 years now. The thing that drives me is that I believe our mind can do so many things that we have even thought up yet. I try not to think about the limitations and strive to have faith like a child has with exercises and test-like events.

If your mind is infinitely powerful, could you learn punctuation and grammar?

I use the powers of my mind to live my double life.
I do good things with my vast riches by day.
I fight crime by night.
The best part is I get to wear this cool costume.
And...The chicks dig my car.

Usually not as well as I could because I keep forgetting that If you really want something to be or happen then you have to put it out there and use your thoughts.
Quatum physicics is amazing only if you remember to realize it.

I use it pretty well. The hard part is not being able to tell people about my work or what it is I do. So it usually goes unnoticed and unappreciated.
