Our mind is just the smell – either fragrance or stink – choose what we want to carry within ourselves.
Few days back, there was class reunion of our school mates. This actually made me nostalgic. Lot of friends were meeting again after a long time. At the dinner, one of my friends and I were discussing about his company & its operations, organisational management and competitive market. He had started this company 9 years back with his passion & zeal. His company’s turnover is around 21 crores & managing 168 employees. After dinner, he had started discussing about his behavioural concerns with me.
He was telling that managing daily operations, executing expansion plans, bagging more orders make me stressful sometimes. Actually I’m enjoying my work and company is also progressing but as human resources are increasing, it is becoming very difficult for me to control my mind. Sometimes I loose my control on my mind and I become extremist on my emotional side.
I said, “Why do we need to control our mind? Our thoughts and emotions are not going to stop until we die so rather than trying to control; we can regulate both rationally. What we have mostly in our mind; number of thoughts, emotions and our belief system. Many times, we have chaos of our own thoughts and get confused to take the decisions. Our thoughts get changed very fast but our emotions do not change with the same pace so shadow of our emotions peeps in our every thought. Our piled up thoughts create stress in our mind and our extreme negative emotions strike the fire in our mind. So you become extremist with unlimited number of thoughts and extreme emotions. Emotions can be regulated and thoughts can be channelised with few techniques. These techniques are simple to adopt and accommodate in our lifestyle. But it definitely needs consistency. Even our breathing styles impact our thoughts & emotions, so we need to learn to become conscious about our breathing.”
He was listening to me with very interest. He asked “What are those techniques then?” “It is time consuming and has step by step procedure to implement so if you are interested to know, let me know your convenient time. We’ll meet up as per both of our convenience” I said.
He smiled & shook my hand with the confidence and said “Definitely”
