Be Mindful To Change | Learn To Change Your Mindset To Attract Prospects

February 3, 2010 |

All of us have a few little things about ourselves that we wish to amend, whether it is a couple extra pounds we wish to get rid of, some bad habits or even some emotional baggage that we’ve been hauling around inducing a case of sore shoulders. We all have stresses. We all have worries.

The first step to overcome these things is to be mindful to change. Mindful that change will occur in your life and to be open to it, and be mindful of yourself, your mind, your body, so that you are able to find control of your actions and inactions in a world no one person can control.

I’ve found myself to be a being who can feel stress at any given moment, finding that the trigger is not usually the origin. This was my first step in knowing how I can control how stressed out I get, and how often. I recognized that it wasn’t the fact that the dishes were put on the counter rather than in the dishwasher, but it was the things in my life hat I felt weighing me down with no sense of control over that I reacted to. I was stressed out about things that seemed too substantial for me to sort out.

I looked at our climate crisis and the people who are making the decisions for the nation, yet only keeping the “oh so glorious” dollar in their thoughts while making their bias and influenced decisions. I unwrapped my new toothbrush knowing that for me to have this, oil was being taken out of a land that was promised schools and hospitals and had received none. That oil was then used to make the plastic wrapping to keep it sanitary before it reached my teeth, while the corporation making the plastic wrap is spewing out refuse into the atmosphere and into the closed system we cannot yet leave. I contemplate that while I lay here in my condo, the sirens blaring out, and the screeching tires of adrenaline junky drivers going around corners at 60 Km/hr in the dead of night, I must try to rest my eyes for but a minute before I turn in to work in the morning to a job I’m not entirely passionate about.

I’ve come to the understanding that the world I’m born into wasn’t the world I asked for, but it is mine to amend. This world is impacted by every one of us here. Each and every person with their own stresses and their own perspective on life, change with the world without even thinking or trying, for better or for worse. Within the most insignificant deed we will change the course of history.

Had the spokesman for the Nazi party not had a cold and sore throat that one night, he wouldn’t have asked for help from Adolf Hitler’s friend to do his dialogue for him. Had his friend been a good public speaker, he wouldn’t have refused this offer, but by doing so giving young Mr. Hitler an opportunity to speak on the party’s behalf, inflaming him with the passion of the party’s ideals. Do you get my point?

Understand that you are in control of your own actions. You control who you speak to, positive or negative in influence. You control how you react, no matter how instinctive the reaction may seem, you always have the choice. You control what you do or do not do, what you say and what you do not. You control all of yourself. Your environment affects you, so choose how to react. Choose to pick up some ones trash. Choose to take three deep breathes before responding to a personal attack. Choose to disconnect yourself from the setting when it’s too much for you to handle on the spot.

Choose to be mindful in your life. Being mindful means simply to not allow your mind to run, but to run your mind. Run your body.

Do what you know is right for you, and seek help when you know you need it. We all need a little help sometimes and there are so many of us here from which to ask for help.
