“All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become.”
One of the famous quote from Budha. Now a days after plenty
of research we finally find the importance of our thought that Budha found thousands years ago. Today while i was
doing mediation suddenly this thought comes into my mind that how many thought
we have usually for everyday as for general.. Can we count it? did anybody
already done this research? There is really easy way to find it, i grab my laptop and
searched on Google and i found a really astonishing result. It has been suggested
that we have around 60,000 thoughts per day can you believe it. Then suddenly
another thought came into my mind how many of those thoughts are self-defeating
ones. I get worried. Its so easy that our train of thoughts jump from one track
of thinking or subject to another without our real concern and these thought
can be really self destructive one.
How difficult it can be to stop an old mental tape from
playing over and over again about a frustrating conversation that we had with
someone at work or at home. We replay the mental tape until we are exhausted-and
yet where have we found ourselves? In the same place we were before but now
with wasted mental, physical and emotional energy. We have solved and resolved
nothing.
Do our thoughts shape our lives? Albert Einstein believed so.
He said "The world we have created is a product of our thinking; it cannot
be changed without changing our thinking." James Lane Allen, author of the
book "As a Man Thinketh" states, "You are today where your
thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you."
How do we take control of our thoughts? How do we direct
them from self-destructive thinking and behaviors to self-constructing thoughts
and behaviors? By making a decision to do so and then committing to do
mediation we can begin to take charge of
our lives. After the decision and commitments have been made, we must implement
a mindful state of being by doing mediation regularly that is living a life
which is mindful of what we are thinking and what we are doing.
I made a Autosuggestion for my self that i am using now a days its help me a lot.
“I will adopt a 'be here now attitude' and focus. I always bring new ideas that nourish me on all levels and i commit myself to enjoying the present moment.”
