>>>#21/4/20 Of Mind and Matter

My mind may not be at par with the best minds out there.  It may not be fully functional.  It may not even well utilized.  And yet it is my most valuable possession and the only one that I got.

Therefore I need to regard my mind as a sacred altar where my source of inspirations comes from.  I cannot let this sacred altar be contaminated [m]y (by) the three most dangerous elements; namely Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt.

Rather than saddened that my mind is different from others and therefore might be defective, I must regard my mind as uniquely *min[d] (mine).  I may not be in the same class as SV Ramanujan and John Nash but I am me.  This is uniquely mine.

* Thanks for the encouragement Sarah

For sure my mind is taking me somewhere.  I must follow it to where it is going.  The reason why it may seem weird is because I compare my mind with the minds of others around me.

My mind is a combination of a philosopher, a scientist, a believer, an inquisitor,  an analytic and many more fused in the innocence of a child

Well today is the World Creativity Day.  Think different, think Da Vinci.

In the past I never question where my mind was taking me.

Hmmm... this song is on air:

FIREWORK


I need to surrender to the Big I.  I got to trust my instinct even though it may not make sense to others.  I went through the rationalization of who I am and now I have to accept my findings.

#traxxfm I started work early today. I was writing about how important to trust your mind because the inspiration that comes to your mind is uniquely yours. Then you mentioned about the World Creative Day. So today I celebrate Da Vinci. Later hon.


Everybody wants to be belonged.  I am no exception.  However I have to accept that I belong to my mind and nobody else.  Therefore acceptance is the determining factor here.

People can say or can't say about many things.  If my goal in life is to be liked, then I am in for a surprise.  But if I am here to accept me as who I am, then I must forgo the judgement of others towards me.

I'm not going to sweat it.

All I know is there is only one thing that I can trust.  That is the judgement of my own thoughts.  As far as I am concern, whatever I believe in is true to me.

At my age I should not seek permission from others to be who I am.

I should have the confidence to execute what's in my mind.

------------------

So back to this thing called the mind.  It is not an inanimate object.  It is intelligent.  It knows what it's doing.

Whatever it asks me do has a purpose.  That purpose is self-preservation.  That includes the decision to not exercise.  It is actually a self-preservation.  It sees exercising as a mean to increase pain rather than an avenue to increase pleasure.

I need to associate exercise with pleasure if I am to do it on continuous basis.

My experience with Els was linked to massive pleasure to the point that not being with her is linked to massive pain.  That is a recipe for addiction if I don't manage it well.

One final point I like to stress is the importance of pacing.  While I have to accept me as who I am, I need to pace myself so that I am constantly enthusiastic about the wisdom I am receiving from my mind.

As I mentioned, my mind is a sacred temple.  I need to treat what comes from it as a gift.
