Soul n Peace

Total electricity required for running this mind was equal to power required by a town. We received this big factory known as human mind “free of cost” from existence.

100 Million $ factory, You and me are the owner, the king, CEO – and we never bothered to visit our own empire.

Then who is running our empire?

Production in our thought factory is under the charge of two managers, one of whom I call Mr. Positive and the other Mr. Negative. Mr. Positive is in charge of manufacturing positive thoughts. He specializes in producing reasons how you can, how you’re qualified, how you will. Mr. Negative specializes in reasons why you can’t, why circumstances are not allowing you to do it, why you are not qualified and why you will not do it.

Both Mr. Positive and Mr. Negative are obedient. They snap to attention immediately. All we need do to signal either foreman is to give the slightest mental beck-and-call. If the signal is positive, Mr. Positive will step forward and go to work. Likewise, a negative signal brings Mr. Negative forward.  

Now the more work we give either of these two managers, the stronger he becomes. If Mr. Negative is given more work to do, he adds personnel and takes-up more space in our mind. Eventually, he will take over the entire thought-manufacturing division; virtually all thought   will be of negative nature.

My research revealed some interesting facts: -

Several years ago, the National Science Foundation put out some very interesting statistics. We think a thousand thoughts per hour. When we write, we think twenty-five hundred thoughts in an hour and a half. The average person thinks about twelve thousand thoughts per day. A deeper thinker, according to this report, puts forth fifty thousand thoughts daily.

Majority of them are either negative, repeated or irrelevant thoughts. Mr. Negative normally rules the inside world.
Mr. Negative is being given more work to do – he becomes more powerful and makes life more miserable.
Most of us have been doing the same unknowingly.
Our factory is a case of badly managed organization.

The only wise thing to do it fire Mr. Negative. We don’t need him. We don’t want him around telling us that we can’t, we are not up to it, we’ll fail, and so on. Mr. negative won’t help us get where we want to go, so boot him out.

Use Mr. Positive 100 per cent of the time. When any thought enters your mind, ask Mr. Positive to go to work for you. He’ll show you how you can succeed.

Having said that, I know that firing Mr. Negative is a wishful thinking. Mr. Positive is weak at the moment. We have to learn the art of internal mind management (MM) first and then gradually take control.

Acknowledging the presence of Mr. Positive and Mr. Negative, and building a day-to-day working relationship with him/her is one of the absolute keys to creating a truly successful life - however you define

The bottom line

The Thought is the fountain head of success.
