Feed Your Mind
Everyday is an opportunity to expand your knowledge, increase awareness, and strengthen your creative abilities by feeding your mind. Similiarly to feeding your body for energy which gives your body what it needs to work at its optimum for the day, we need to feed our minds. What we give to our minds to feed on can be as invigorating as a healthy meal or as toxic.
Consider what you give your mind to feed on and make positive changes that will keep your growing and expanding your world. These few changes can also be applied to help your homeschooler enhance their learning styles by making simple changes that increase the cognitive learning.
Listen to positive/motivation audio – There are many ways to cultivate your mind, and since our subconscious is always recording, when you have a positive audio on in your car or while you’re doing something around the house you are implanting that and rewriting your subconscious mind with positive flowing energy.
Reading – Something I never really did, once started I noticed my mind grow and learn new things daily, this is essential to change your life. The best books to check out are anything by Robert Kiyosaki, Tony Robbins, Napoleon Hill, Eckhart Tolle and the like.
Watching – When you watch something that teaches you about the mind and about expanding your potential you really start growing. Watching someone talk about their experiences and how they became successful is how you can plug in to their story and realize that you can do it too.
Move the goal posts. Set a large and specific goal. This will motivate you much more than small goals. A big goal has a big effect and can create a lot of motivation.
Remember your successes. And let them flow through your mind instead of your failures. Write down your successes. Consider using a journal of some kind since it’s easy to forget your successes.
Write down your goals and reasons for working towards them. Tape them on your wall, computer or bathroom mirror. Then you’ll be reminded throughout the day and it becomes easier to stay on track and stay focused.
Reprogram your information intake.
Program out negative and cynical thoughts from the media and society. Reduce your information intake. Then program in positive news and entertainment, more of your own thoughts and useful information such as personal growth tapes and books. Be selective and keep it positive.
Listen while you’re on the move. Build your own small library of motivational/personal development recordings. Listen to them while you’re driving, riding the bus, biking, running or walking.
Make each day count. We don’t have all the time in the world. So focus on today and do the things you really want to do.
