Today, we are going to talk MINDSET.
and I have a lot of thoughts on what it means, what it doesn’t, and how to slowly and carefully massage your mindset into one that works well for you — in whatever phase of life you might be currently in.
In a nutshell — mindset is about staying in the here and now and paying attention, without judgment, to what your brain is saying.
You have a constant dialogue – when you are driving, when you are trying to fall asleep –
And a lot of times you aren’t paying attention to what your thoughts and mental chatter say –
And I’m suggesting that in order to live out the life of your dreams – the kind of life you want to live on purpose –
You should try your hardest to pay attention to your thoughts the very best that you can.
Mindfulness is a psychological process that allows you to pay attention to experiences as they happen without judgment.
It’s simple:
It’s about fully attending to what’s happening, to what you’re doing, and where you are.
Mindfulness plays a huge part in emotional stability because it represents one single factor:
It allows you to be not overly reactive to the negative situations happening in your life.
