Controlling Your Mind

When we are fully engrossed in a task and are unaware of all around us, are we “in the flow” i.e. fully present with what we are doing? Or are we stuck in our minds and in the grip of the ego?

There is a fine line.

It is a challenge to remain present whilst carrying out our work and daily lives.

A simple question may help.

Are you controlling your mind or is your mind controlling you?

“When we understand how the mind works, we can control it. When we can control it we can direct it. When we can direct it we can create the life that we want and sustain the changes that we seek.”
