Quote of the day: Bruce Lee
“The possession of anything begins in the mind.”
Bruce Lee
I have been reading about this concept and have been told about in so many different ways virtually all my life. I must admit that I hadn’t fully grasped it until about a year ago.
Once you fully grasp it though, you find yourself a lot more aware of your thoughts and how you sabotage yourself daily. Making changes becomes easier and little victories come quickly and keep you in awe of what you can accomplish when you set your mind to it.
When you look around you and realise that everything around you began with a thought, you began to internalise how powerful your mind is and you start to use it differently. To build on Bruce Lee’s quote… The possession and creation of anything begins in your mind. 🌺
Quote of the day: Naval Ravikant
“The measure of wisdom is how calm you are when facing any given situation.”
Naval Ravikant
Oh how I needed this reminder yesterday. I am an emotional person by nature and like everyone else have the odd person that rubs me up the wrong way no matter how much I try to be patient and keep a positive frame of mind when interacting with them. I know I should hold my tongue and just breathe but some days they catch me with my guard down. Their intentions are good. They are just trying to do their job but their methods just mess with my peace somehow
How do you deal with situations like these?
