How to organize your mind
What happens if too many programs open on our computers? The computer starts running slower. The same goes for our mental computers – our minds. We live in times where it is not uncommon for a lot of things to occur at the identical time. However, this doesn’t change the incontrovertible fact that we’re humans and one in all our most simple needs to function is a peaceful mind. The reality is – the more cluttered our minds are, the more cluttered and chaotic our lives will likely be. A transparent attitude is crucial for us to thrive not only in business but in life. A very successful life is a balanced life.
Keep your environment clean
Even though it sounds easy, it is vitally essential. Our surroundings are sometimes a direct reflection of what is going on inside us and in our psyche. The physical act of tidying up is a cleansing experience that gives a way of accomplishment, ease, and symbolizes the power to clean up the mess in our lives.
Set aside time for silence on daily basis
No matter how chaotic your life could also be, you may have no less than five to 10 minutes to calm down and sit in complete silence. Often in silence we start to see clarity. Without clarity, no task or dream will ever be completed. Silence also provides peace and calms any anxiety you could experience. This exercise may be performed at any time of the day. Start with five minutes and slowly increase it.
Mapping
Create a map of all of the things that clutter your mind. Put them so as of importance. Come up with a plan of attack for every task one after the other. This is an exercise to alleviate the anxiety and craziness that usually comes with a cluttered mind.
Exercises
The advantages of exercise are countless. The endorphins released during exercise provide clarity, creativity and energy. All are needed for optimal mental health and sharpness.
Video diary
Almost everyone has a smartphone with a good camera. Take a while to pour out your thoughts. The great point is that it doesn’t have to make sense or be pretty or sophisticated. This is a brain dumping exercise. Better yet, do away with anything that competes for space in your mind.
Give yourself a break
The easiest but hardest thing for many is taking time to rest. We often think that now we have missed something and that we should always all the time be doing something. This view often leads to mental overload and ultimately tends to do more harm than good. Give yourself a while to do nothing. Watch TV, read a book, cook or go for a walk. Do something on daily basis that has nothing to do with the burden of thoughts circulating in your head.
Remember that now we have the power to change not only our world, however the world as an entire…BE GREAT!!
