Worries

JSK..good morning,

When we get up in the morning, we are so charged, ready to start the day. However, throughout the day, how we use our mental energy is in our hands and and triggered by our thoughts. However, many of our thoughts are consumed by some kind of worry. We don't even know if what we are worrying about is going to happen or not. Then, by the end of the day without doing anything we are so depleted and heavy.

Worrying destroys our creativity of our consciousness. For once we start worrying, it is such a powerful thought its like termite that slowly eats away at us. Our mind starts racing and constantly thinking about something new and becomes almost impossible to stop once it starts.

Worrying about little things is the greatest misuse of our mental energy. Stress, anger, hurt, worries are all things we think about. These are natural we all have and they are part of our life. We have to worry for our kids, family. Sometimes it is our worries that becomes our strength since worrying about someone or something shows that we care. Typically, what we do when we worry? We create a scene...a picture of a future which is not even there. It just disconnects us from our PRESENT.

Worrying is the most easiest way of avoiding the present, because the present always seems very challenging. We forget everything is now...peace is now...happiness is now...love is now. We don't want to face reality now but worrying doesn't help. Try to create stability in your mind..your energy is very precious. THINK again next time you start worrying about little things....is it worth of your time?

Be present in the present moment, smile and be happy now

Take care
Love ya

Glass

JSK...good morning,
I read something very interesting this morning,
So, you are holding a glass of water. Just imagine if you have to hold it for whole day. What will happen? Your hand will get tired, your fingers will get stiff, etc. Same way if you are holding your stress the whole day, what will happen? You become irritatable, angry,etc.
So in the office every now and then pour that water out from your glass and when you are with your family make a habit of leaving that glass outside your home.

Enjoy your day.

love

Witness

JSK...good morning

When someone reacts negatively to you, you wonder why people do this to you and we blame others. For we always think we are right, we always say "what’s their problem"? When others see us how we react to any situation they will react accordingly. We may be the one who are causing them to react that way but we always tend we blame others.

I learned a very interesting way to see this. Witness yourself everyday, at least for an hour and then keep increasing the time increment. Talk out loud and be a witness to yourself. Notice how you are sitting in a chair and ask yourself, do you like the way you are sitting? If not straighten yourself up. While eating, do you like what’s on your plate? When you are speaking, do you like the tone of your voice? Is it a tone that we don't like when someone else is talking to us? If you start witnessing yourself you will see, that what your actions or words don't necessarily match up with what you THINK or FEEL.

So just see yourself from your very own eyes and be your own witness. Life is just like a movie. You are directing every second and all takes are final, no retakes.
Witness yourself and then check yourself. If the shot is ok, then say "CUT"!

As always... love you guys..
