It's distressing and saddening to see that your mind can
trick you by throwing you into a storm of vortex. Your mind constantly tries to
remind you how you are incapable to do things and fall into the overwhelming
feelings of depression.
In life, there are going to be ups and downs and that's
normal because that's a part and parcel of your life. Nevertheless you have to
deal with it. But in today's time when you are low and are feeling blues, sadly
there's no one to hold your hand and make you feel better.
To be frank, don't rely always on someone to pick you up
when you are down and vulnerable. Being dependent all the time is also not a
good sign especially when you know that you are living alone or that the
experiences you are having or struggling with cannot be similar in comparison
to others.
So, the question here is what must you do when your mind is
always racing and not coming to a halt? What must you do when your mind keeps
you in a state of denial?
It always tries to weaken and subdue your strengths as if
they never existed in the first place!
Here is a simple solution.
- Firstly, you are the driver of your mind.You are driving it into directions where you want to go. So, make sure whenever a negative thought pops up in your mind, reject it that instant. Replace it with a positive one .
- There may be times when you would feel that "I can't do this", "I can't do that" "I am not like him/her", "I can't" and so on. Dear friend, I know that feeling and that suffering which you go through. But that also doesn't mean that you don't give it a try.
- Next to this, remember again, it's you who has the control over your mind. Only you can tell your mind how to be positive all the time. People can only give you suggestions here and there. But in the end you are your own guiding force, you are your own coach and only you can motivate yourself. Make friends who instead of gossiping and backbiting talk about how to live your life in a positive way. I know good friends are hard to find these days but it's better to be alone than have a bad company. A bad company which is always cursing, abusing, being pessimistic and talking bad is leading you no where good. On the contrary, you would become absolutely like them. Just like a carbon copy.
- Indulge your mind into things that's fruitful and not vice versa.Work on things where your mind doesn't become impatient and nervy. You must know how to strike a balance with your work life and other things. You must make a time for everything and not exceed the limit. While you are working on a particular assignment or project, give all its focus and dedicate your time to it and not get distracted every now and then by checking your phone. It's a distraction and it would never let you do your work on time. They say, "one work at a time". It's not just a popular saying. There's definitely a reason behind why you have to work that way.
- Lastly, whenever you are in doubt that you can't do it. Don't believe it right away. At least think of giving it one chance. It's better to try once than regret and repent all your life. So even if you fail, you can proudly say that you gave it a shot!
Life is short and you definitely don't have enough time to
repent on all those things you never did especially when you were young.
Stay calm, Stay focused, Believe
in yourself.
It's important to know that you can only gain confidence
after attempting or trying things. After all, life is all about trial and
errors at every stage. Live in the moment. Trick your mind by making yourself
believe that you can do it. You are capable to try everything.
