Live in the days and never live on lost days

Mind Control

Memories often take us to revisit the lost days of our past in which the mind tends to get lost

It is a general tendency of the human mind to dig into the memories of the past that reflect more on the setbacks and hardships faced than the good times that life enjoyed

Prolonged solitude moments are the vulnerable times for the mind to get lured by the thoughts on the past situations which can be solved by engaging the mind with fresh and constant activities

Like the horse that runs wild without the blind, the mind too oscillate without the focus

To divert a mind from unwanted thoughts

* Open a book to read
* Take a stroll in the garden
* Listen to favourite music 🎶
* Try writing on topics that resonate
* Play sports of your choice

Even the strong metal 'Iron' gets eroded if allowed to get rusted for a prolonged period

Even a strong 'mind' gets lured by negative thoughts if allowed to muse over the lost days of the past days

A horse let lose to run amok will never reach the destination and a mind that's let to wander will never reach any valuable insights

A wild horse needs to be reined in to run with a direction on a race track

A wandering mind needs to be reined in to think positively on the growth mode

Both require timely control to function properly and effectively

In the case of a horse 🐎, alternate horse can be made available to replace an uncontrollable horse

But the same won't apply in the case of a mind as we all know that, so far the medical science hasn't progressed to invent an optional brain to replace a redundant mind

So next time your mind begins to wander or keeps digging into the past unwanted thoughts -

You know what to do, all the best 👍
