I decided I could, should and deserve, today I will dress up in new shoes and a renewed spirit to let my life mix with laughter, dancing and hugging, because all good things stir my hair and upset the soul, and I think it’s time to get that almost forgotten feeling back.
We all go through times when we suddenly say “enough. “The mental fatigue or pressure of our environment pulls us, one by one, every scale of those mermaid tails that we used to swim freely in our personal oceans. However, saying?it’s not always enough to make the change we want.
“We must do ordinary things with extraordinary love. -Teresa of Calcutta-
Phrases like “I deserve the best,” “Is it time to put myself first?”Or do I have the right to be happy? these are like sayings that we repeat over and over again but that end up not taking effect, although I have the intuition that by turning the corner, life may have reserved something good, it is not easy to take a step towards the extraordinary, especially if our mind persists in continuing to adhere to the current, predictable.
The transition to the sublime does not require prior planning, it is not necessary to make an appointment or wait for a shooting star to make a wish, a happier life only needs one thing: a happier brain.
Have you ever stopped to think about the amount of thoughts we have throughout the day?Neurologists like these kinds of questions, so it doesn’t take long for us to give ourselves an answer: about 50,000, however, it must be said that almost 80% of them are useless. Most are repetitive, mechanical and even obsessive.
The tired brain is the echo of an unhappy mind. This train of debilitating thoughts travels along the tracks of “If I had,” “Would others leave me?”Or “I feel incompetent. ” Sometimes, on paths so infertile and inhospit, the spirit blames those around us for each of our own misfortunes, in this way we feed even more the engine of the tired brain, the scattered mind and no capacity to resolve.
But closing the windows of our brain will only make us hear the echo of a ghostly noise: the one that brings fear, indecision, despair. A good idea to get in touch with the good things that life offers us has to do with an openness. attitude, which allows two wonderful processes in our mind: recycling and creation.
Certainly, in your intention to take care of the environment and the planet, you usually recycle Does our mind need one too?Maintenance? Similar. Many of our thoughts are useless: they are harmful, so instead of accumulating them, we need to recycle them. To do that, nothing better than to convert one? In a ‘I deserve a chance to try’.
In addition to recycling, we will have a healthy mind if we refine by creating and taking care of our own thoughts. New ideas, goals and attitudes create, strengthen or weaken the connections between neurons in our brain. New thoughts, powerful new emotions, to say goodbye to this tired spirit with the windows closed.
To understand the magic of our brain and our emotions, we suggest you take a small test, take a photo or image with a beautiful landscape, now place your nose completely attached to the image. When you try to focus your attention on what you see, all you can see is a narrow, unre interesting blur.
Our tired mind works in the same way, what we see from this point of view is not very rewarding, however, if we gradually walk away it will open up a world full of possibilities and an inspiring beauty. around us is a positive thing. This gives us the opportunity to realize that nothing, absolutely nothing, has so much power over us to enslave ourselves.
The University of California has done an interesting work on happiness oriented to the field of neurology that has proven to be both practical and revealing. The research resulted in a book entitled “Train Your Brain to Be Happy”. Explains how thoughts produce changes in Our Gray Cells?to create a powerful emotional tissue where balance and well-being reign.
Speak of the present, be firm in your goals and do not measure your skills with those of others, cultivate an inspiring, stimulating and creative thought Remember, above all, that only open minds see the extraordinary where others perceive only ordinary things.
