Mind inside the Mind

Have you ever wonder how our mind work?

Do you think it's possible for us to understand on how our mind work?

Wikipedia definition of the mind is the set of cognitive faculties including consciousness, imagination, perception, thinking, judgement, language and memory, which is housed in the brain (sometimes including the central nervous system). It is usually defined as the faculty of an entity's thoughts and consciousness.

It's another reflective blog, and I would like to discuss how my mind was work yesterday. Yesterday when I was reading on Jesus who has saved Mary Magdalene from the stoning, I was touched. I have read and hear this verses so many times since I was kid, and this was the first time I want to cry when I read this story. I have perceived some profound lessons from the event which I never ever think before, and this makes me wonder on how much is my mind and my emotion are playing big roles in my everyday life.

The first chapter from the book Seven Habit of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey also talk about the perception, and how persuasive and fickle it is. Our mind dictates who we are, books like the secret or movie like the beautiful mind and split also supporting this idea.

Our mind's work is a wonder, the mind is very capable in everything. If we want to success it has to be started by believing ourselves that we are success, this mean the mind has to ordering our mind to believe we success for us to be success, it is the mind inside the mind. I personally think it is impossible for us to understand on how our mind work. The moment we think we have understand our mind is because our mind deceiving us and want us to believe that we are the master of our mind. So, can we trust our mind? Can we trust ourselves? 

We are our mind, we and our mind are one entity. There is no we and there is no mind can exist by itself. I don't think I will ever understand on how the mind work, this means I also will never be able to fully understand myself. I have many emotional experiences which I still could not understand and explain. It is because our mind is so fathomless shaped consciously and unconsciously by so many life events, religion, people, books, and natures. Our mind is the real force of our life, so strong and so powerful. Therefore, we should mind our mind with many good and positive things in any kind of situations. If we surrounded by unfortunate event, we ought to choose to see the bright side of it to be able turn it around.

Smile

How to Win Friends and Influence People Dale Carnegie It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.  It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature´s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.  And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying someone should be too tired to give you a smile, maybe we can leave one of ours for them. For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have none left to  give !  give ! https://www.thesun.co.uk/living/23...

Entitlement

People say our young generation is entitled, it is a good topic to joke about for the stand-up comedians. Entitled is believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment. I believe this is not owned by the young generation only, every generation has it, every one of us has it to some degree. This is a problem we have in society in any age, in any countries in this world. I remember when I was a kid, at night during the hot season our house was filled with mosquitos, and dengue fever are quite common in our country.  I can't remember whether I and my sister ever whined about it but I always remember the fact that my mother often stayed up late holding the insects killer racket just to defended us from the mosquitoes. However, My entitlement behaviour took the bad on me, I thought she ought to do that one because she is our mother, it's her duties to protect us. I did not really care how many hours she has spent at our room every night, or whethe...

Addiction

Addiction is the fact or condition of being addicted to a particular substance or activity. Addiction usually start with pain and end with pain. People will turn to addiction as an escape from their 'hard to deal with' current circumstances. Addiction have negative connotation but in my opinion addiction can be good and bad. But anything that not being done in moderation tends to bring more harm and good.  However, the dichotomy of bad and good, can we really be able to distinguish them? In my own opinion again there is no such things as true good and true bad, all good and all bad. It all depends on our own perceptions and our current states when it's happen. What is good now might not be good again tomorrow, the thing that is good now was not good yesterday. If we are battling with any addiction today, let's all of us be kind to ourselves. We should all acknowledge our addictions and bring them to the lights, but we shouldn't condemn them. We are what we are now b...
