This Week's Reflection
Give your thinking mind and inch and it will take, not just the proverbial mile, it will take your life.
When we think - at all - we miss the moment, we miss our life. What an appalling thought! When we think, we inevitably overthink because thinking is like a self-replicating virus - as today's video explores, all thinking leads to over-thinking. And that means that, for the most part, you end up missing your life.
What can we do about it - after all, we're wired to think. So thinking about not thinking isn't going to cut it! Choosing not the think is just as fanciful - because when you say you're not going to do something, what do you keep thinking about?!
All this might make not thinking appear difficult. But, it's not that we need to stop thinking, we just need to stop feeding our thoughts.
Our thoughts are like vampires - they feed off our energy. Cut off that feed and your thoughts are not. It's as simple as that.
So, in the last few sentences, you have the case for meditation. Why do you think I keep banging on about it?
This Week's Quick Tip
You may be a regular meditator. If you're not, well, aren't you the Prize Idiot!
If you are a regular meditator, you might be one of the many who thinks that Saturday and Sunday are less important than the other days of the week. If that's the case, you've just got nominated for Prize Idiot but you didn't get the award!
Am I finished insulting you? Perhaps - or, at least, perhaps for now!
Meditate every morning - seven days a week. And, by the way, if you miss a day, it simply is what it is.
