Life is unpredictable. As soon as you wake in the morning you become part of the wave in this worlds ocean. If you have a few years under your belt this is very apparent. We are all interconnected and subject to everyone and everything around us. Well, given this truth you still have control of the most important thing, your state of consciousness.
Mental Mastery is the dedication, nay, the discipline to gaining absolute control to your thoughts, emotions and by extension, your actions...
Now if you thought changing your diet was difficult, directing every thought in your mind takes years to master. Buddhist monks and transcendent spirits devote their entire lives to the intention.
The first thing that you must understand and accept is that your life is completely under your control. All it takes is a mastery over your thoughts. When the thoughts are directed and controlled, you can have everything you have wanted.
Don't believe me???
Try it for a day...
So many times we feel like we live in a pin-ball game getting bounced around the board as life sees fit. What if your thoughts could be controlled and your 'bounce' all over life could be controlled or even stopped! Your thoughts are essentially the CAUSE TO YOUR EVENTUAL REALITY. If you believe it or think it, it probably is going to happen.
Success is Fitness, Nutrition, Life, and Relationships... Your ability to make a lasting impression on this world around you stems from your Mental Mastery. Just as I have spoken and written about many times, if you can control the intimate bubble around you; filling it with positivity, success and gratitude... Think about the outward effect you will have on the world around you!!!???
Begin tomorrow.. Master your Mental Status.
Your expectations are a reflection of your confidence in your mind.
Your emotional response to the world is a direct response to your minds ability to accept and love.
Who you surround yourself with is a direct election of how your mind thinks of itself. be dedicated my friends.. Success in life depends on you stepping into this battle and winning.
"If you can take it, you can make it" , This is a battle against your ego and yourself. Master the Mental and become the person you want to be!
