In short this article covers the basics of adapting during a
difficult time for humanity, now and in the future. You can consistently develop yourself
and work on elevating your life by learning how to live, how to focus, how to
get up early, how to master your emotions and harness your inner power which in turn will help free your mind from Negativity and allow you focus on productivity and positive emotions.
The Smart Rule: "Don’t be in a haste, cool down, trust the process,
learn and be patient enough to see your work become a valuable asset in empowering
your life".
Life is all about your appetite and desires because they
form a great portion of your daily thoughts. In life everything is meant to
grow over time regardless of what it is. (For example: Money, Love, Human
beings, Ideas, Life and Wealth). Hence overtime you can either appreciate in
value or decrease in value depending on how you live.
To live a life worth remembering is the desire of all with
prosperity in health and wealth. The truth about this is that all can have such a
life if they apply the right mindset and method to survival in life.
The first step to knowing how to live is “controlling your
appetite”. You have to grow an appetite
that can be satisfied by the work of your hands and mind. Your appetite in life
has to be that of satisfaction. You have to be satisfied with what you have
either to start with or to develop with. This mindset will not only allow you
to have a spirit of wisdom but it will open your mind to ideas that can be used
in growing whatever you have at hand or seek in the future giving you larger
fulfillments because you will have an open mind that can use the resources
available at hand to achieve that which is desired in abundant quantity.
A Wiseman once
said that "it is not the lack of resources but the lack of resourcefulness that
kills many dreams". so you can start with whatsoever you have, wherever you are
and whenever you decide to. Don’t mistake being comfortable and being satisfied with
what you have. Being comfortable with what you have makes you relaxed but being
satisfied makes you have a spirit of gratitude and foresight open to blessings
because you have not a relaxed spirit but a content one that recognizes what
uniqueness and originality of one’s self
in life means.
So, to truly live well you must mold your thoughts and allow
them shape your reality. Look at yourself as an artist with the capacity to
paint any picture they desire.
How to Free Your Mind and Focus
They say, if you pay attention for so long on something you
will either become a master or slave to that thing. The choice is always in our
hands.
You can only capture what you focus on. Your mind can only
attract that which you feed it. To develop the right focus, you need to develop
an intense attention towards your desires and consistently think about their
fulfillment because focus grows overtime through clarity of vision and
thoughts, precision and alignment.
To attract what you desire in life, you have to start putting
your thoughts and focus on that.
Controlling Your Emotions
Your emotions are at the core of your thoughts because it is the emotional triggers we get that leads to the formation of thoughts, the triggers we get from events occurring around or away from us, conversations, reactions and feelings towards something affects us a lot. Say for example you receive some good news about a promotion at work or a cash gift from one of your favorite uncle, unconsciously after receiving such news you might tend to feel a rush of joy and happy thoughts in your mind almost immediately and then as time goes on your mind begins to dwell on how you will utilize your new gift in one way or the other. This cycle of thoughts can go on and on depending on the attention you give to it.
And so this same scenario of thoughts formation and emotional trigger can be applied when we get sad news as well.
At the back of our emotional and thoughts trigger is the ability to determine how we react. You have control over your reaction towards any series of events you encounter in life and if you grasp the meaning of this truth that "as your mind thinks so you become" then you can apply the conscious or deliberate strategy of "constantly choosing how to react to your thoughts, emotions and life events". You can develop the habit of positive reaction to anything by allowing your mind to remind you always that you are in charge of your mind.
This you can start and master through a 7-days "Positive thought reminder routine" where by you tell yourself from Day 1 of the routine that you will remind yourself everyday for 7-days that you are in charge of your thoughts and your mind works in all aspects to aid you.
Repetition is the father of learning and for you to perfect anything you must practice to perfect yourself in it, And so for controlling your mind you must practice positive thinking always.
