Healthy living is not only about the things we eat. It’s also about the thoughts we let accumulate into our minds.
Many of us run unconscious words in our minds repeatedly, which produce adverse outcomes and lead us towards failure rather than triumph. It’s terrifying when you sit down for a moment, close your eyes and do nothing. I bet in this state; your mind will start wandering around a million miles an hour. Common thoughts are anxiety, what to cook for dinner, what someone else said to you and what you wish you thought to speak to someone else as a comeback.
Do you know that at some stage or another, we accept these thoughts and let them rule our lives — because we believe they are who we indeed are?
You are not your thoughts, and you are not the sum of your thoughts, and you can control what you do and don’t listen to. It may sound easy, but it’s tough. What’s required is a daily practice and never letting a single day pass without being diligent about this practice. What will help you condition your mind is reading positive quotes, listening to speeches or motivational coaches on YouTube or even buying some audiobooks on the subject. You can even pray or meditate regularly. I know that when I’ve been down and everything has been crumbling around me, I turn to these mediums to help me turn my mind and life around.
When it comes to our mindset, we all need daily coaching because once you stop working on your self, that’s when the weeds start growing again. Soon enough, without content repetition, those weeds take over, and you are swamped with negativity too. It’s essential to work on your self more than you work on anything else. Once you do this daily, then you will begin to see results in your life.
If we don’t touch on this subject, then having a healthy lifestyle will be many written words, a recipe book or some exercise program. It just won’t become a driving force for you. A healthy mind then resorts to health and abundance in every other aspect of your life.
Why is this the case? Once you start cultivating thoughts you do want and project to yourself the ideal future, you will automatically begin to take the necessary steps to make that happen. That includes your health, work, career…
