Ok, it’s about time I attempted to take some kind of control around here.
The characters that jostle me seem half asleep, unconscious, behaving automatically according to habits whose origins are long forgotten and no longer relevant.
It’s time to break the mold. Old habits die hard, of course, but it’s time to start unravelling them, and re-knitting a new world for myself.
The mind can be allowed its freedom, but it doesn’t seem very good at looking after things on it’s own, and too often ends up barking up pointless trees, chasing it’s tail or biting it’s owner. It needs training.
The mind can be a wonderful ally, a magical tool for the creation of my future. So this is my mission: to bring my thoughts under conscious guidance. I know how the mind likes to chase it’s tail, so I’ll start by giving it a new tail to chase, a new thought to chase round and round.
I consciously manage my thoughts and actions
And so a new circle is born, in itself going nowhere, but providing a springboard of possibilities. But I must maintain my focus. The old characters will seek to break this newly forming habit as it is, by its design, a threat to them. They will, with all the authority of age, try to disempower my new found confidence and hide the chink I’ve found in their armor. I am ready for this and protect myself from falseness and negativity, I use the stick of my consciousness to begin scraping a new groove in the sands of my mind:
My life is unfolding perfectly
Everything that happens is exactly what I need
So I can relax. So I can focus. So I can live in a state of gratitude and joy.
Thankyou!
