Today, I wanted to share something personal with a hope that it could help someone.
A year before, same time my mind was a battlefield of thoughts and emotions...
A year later now, I am a much calmer and a peaceful individual who knows what to feed the mind and what not to.
What helped in this process of being more mindful and calmer is #meditationpractice .
Being an over thinker always, it has always been difficult to not get too involved in something. A lot of self evaluation by going deeper down has helped me process my thoughts better.
Now when I face a challenging situation, I just ask myself this one question:
👉Is this under my control? If yes, what can I do about it? If no, why do I have to think about this? Let me surrender it to the Universe.
Being an overthinker, earlier my mind would think of multiple negative possibilities even before it happening. Now I try and think what's the worst possible thing that could happen and try and make peace with it (Zerodha's Nithin Kamath's strategy)
Once you make peace with the outcomes in your mind, you are better off to face real challenges when it happens in the physical world. Conquering mind is the challenge always.
Meditation has helped me process things slowly, be an ever grateful human being, more mindful in my duties and responsibilities and even worry lesser.
My intentions at work has been strengthened in this process and I find more solutions to business problems because I am in a position to think and not get swayed away without time.
Every day before starting my day, I visualize how my day could be, what all new opportunities can come in, how do I better my intentions at work, how do we add more value to clients, what do I intend to attract more and more etc.
Just the thoughts in the right direction creates the motion required from Universe is what I believe.
I hope this helps someone who is looking for some light in difficult times. Hold on and continue to hope :)
