Who is tending your mind garden




















So, I shuffled the cards and pulled one from the deck. It reminds us to water the good thoughts and weed out the bad ones. This reminded me about my own thoughts and internal dialogue with past situations and the processes I went through to overcome them. Jealousy happens for several reasons.

For one, obsessive thinking can play a role when engaging in doubt-filled thoughts, reacting poorly to being unable to control a situation, or blowing a certain problem out of proportion.

Jealousy can cause you to disconnect from reality to some degree or allow paranoia to set in, creating the inability to trust others. Jealousy is often a nonsensical inclination conceived from misinterpreting something. These obsessive thoughts result from insecurity, guilt, or other comparable feelings, translating or leading to jealous spiraling.

Then after this I wanted to get my gluts in shape so I did an additional squats to finish the night I am definitely not athletic, so this was a huge challenge for me to do but looking to improve. I am excited!

Project go go! I just flew back from Miami this week. The company paid all the expenses for this trip, as usual. It was such an awesome trip, not because everything was free but because it was truly an eye opener. Because as we grow up, we only know what we were exposed to. And so, myself growing up in not the best family household, not the richest of the rich, not use to luxury, lifestyle, getting what i want — I mean speaking of that , I was always taught to not want things, not to ask for things — because if I truly deserved it, it will come to me….

To not get what you want. Who taught me that it was okay to live a life less than your own standard?? And then it comes down to it. If not them, then the generations before them. Lucky enough to pass on the fruits of their labor.

So this past week, I was able to go on an all-expenses paid trip with the founder and a some of the top producers of the NY area to Miami. Attending the trip with someone who has created success and not only that have shown others to do the same, really changes things.

This project really changed my life. And being able to be exposed to a lifestyle of luxury, living how I want, doing what I want, when I want. Like waking up without an alarm clock. Eating 7 meals a day. Renting a speed boat to tour Miami because you feel like it. Enjoying life in the present. Because we think we are perfect, We dont blame ourselves for the way things turned out for us.

For the way things are. And then there will be people like me. People like me. I use to think my life was great. Because well, Im working hrs a week. I get good grades. I have a paycheck every other week. My mom cooks for me. I have a room in my house all to myself. I get to hang out with friends during my free time.

What was to like? Currently sitting at a cafe, squinting at my laptop screen and punching in some numbers, hopefully along the way, a couple of these numbers matches the ones my partners are looking for. Doing international business at Branding and marketing a trending product.

This is pretty cool. Man, what people do for coffee. That really tells you something. And the industry is only growing, creating more and more competition. But the 10Go coffee project is a whole new experience.

Now I am not a big coffee drinker. And for some crazy reason, I would stay awake until the cup is done and I would hit a crash and need to get another cup but by that time my hands are shaking faster than I can feel.

So for me, coffee reminds me of those times. It tastes amazing. It was such a simple mix, all I had to do was add it to hot water and stir and drink. It is not marked as instant coffee though, because of the way they extracted the coffee beans and the blend, it brews like instant coffee but not.

And the blend had all the cream and sugar I needed in it. That was actually all-natural and healthy. Not only was the taste different but you could immediately feel the difference in your body. I was WIDE awake after a few sips. It was definitely a difference experience drinking 10Go coffee.

I had no crash afterwards. Even though I drank it in the early morning, I was not feeling tired til way past midnight that night. That product works miracles. Positive thoughts are the beautiful flowers that brighten your life. Negative thoughts are the ugly weeds that spread and suffocate the flowers. Now I catch myself and change the channel. My dear Grandma Betty lived to be ninety-two. She outlived all six of her children, and had a lifetime of good physical health, yet her mind was tangled with weeds that began growing decades before she died.

I never noticed it when I was a kid, but it became increasingly apparent later on. Perhaps she felt lonely when my grandfather died early and she had too much time alone with her thoughts. This is what eventually happened. I loved her to bits, but she became challenging to talk to. This was in sharp contrast to my Grandma Millie. She was always smiling or laughing with a twinkle in her eye. Life dealt her a crappy deck. She was widowed young and had to raise three kids alone. She also experienced the tragic loss of both of her sons.

She went blind from cataracts disease in her early eighties but continued to find volunteer work so she could feel useful and keep active and social. Complaining is pointless. Guess what happened then? Unfortunately, as well-tended as it had been, no one else in our household had the time or the interest to keep that garden healthy, so within three or four weeks, it was completely overrun by weeds; in fact, so swift was the destruction that it made a lasting impression on me.

Friend, your mind is just like that garden. Not only must you tend to your mental and spiritual well-being by planting good seed and cultivating fertile soil, but you must pull out the weeds. In other words, you have to nurture the right kinds of thoughts to yield the best fruit while guarding your mind to prevent the negative and destructive ones from taking root.

This means that you have to train yourself and take caution in the friends you keep, the books you read, the media you consume, and the voices that you listen to. Taking in too much negativity will quickly cause thorny, destructive shrubs to sprout up and overtake the robust, healthy, and nourishing crops that come from the Word of God.

Prayer Jesus, thank you for being the One who sows good thoughts in my heart and spirit. I pray for the harvest of your truth to be evident in my life as I proactively uproot negativity and other destructive forces in my thinking.
