Changing Your Life by Controlling Your Mind

Tweet

Our mind is a vast, indispensable and improbable medium with which our thoughts are being shaped every fleeting second. We might, at times be unaware of the relentless thoughts that come in and out of our minds. However, there are far more amazing feats that our think tank could accomplish-far more than just the usual thinking engine we use to engage when we want to conjure up an idea. Our mind can actually change everything even as something as complex as our life if we just learn how to control it. By mastering our mind's potential, we can actually direct our lives the way we want it to towards a fuller and much accomplished end. If you want a dramatic change in your life, you ought to take control of your mind first.

So how do we basically control our mind? With the millions of thoughts that come in and out of our minds, we find it at times so hard to get our minds fixed to a certain thought or situation which in turn makes it difficult for us to come up with a single decision on some matters. We could have firm control over these volatile thoughts by initially sorting out or choosing which thoughts we should take in and which ones we should disregard. This is one of the most important steps in gaining access to your mind's unharnessed power. Choose a certain hour or minute in your daily activity to just sit down for a while, doing nothing, and meditate on any single thought. This may seem to be far from being easy at your first attempt, so I suggest that you start, as a stepping stone, to at least try to read a book and try to count the number of words in each sentence without actually diverting your mind to any other thought than your counting. Remember, it usually takes 21 days to form a habit, so try repeating it for 21 days. This may get you in frustration as you try to advance yourself along the course, but patience is everything. After that, you can take meditation as mentioned above. You will find that as you go through this exercise you can now start to gradually enhance your mind's concentration as it is essential in reaching your certain objectives and goals in life. When you have learned to focus your mind on a single thought-excluding everything else from it, you will find that it no longer is a tiresome job for you to concentrate on whatever work is at hand, whether you are simply doing your routine house chores, reading or writing a novel or even studying for a particular exam or interview.
