RE: Mindful Life Monday: You Are What You Think PLUS Times for Discord Meditation Sessions!
Being mindful of our thoughts is the big lesson for a mindful life, huh? As I sit down to write my #mindfullife post for the week (missed Monday - it's Tuesday morning here in Australia) I'm contemplating that very thing.
I love that poem - funny, I'm teaching Invictus the film (about Mandala) to students next term (in comparision with a written text about leadership). I love the 'prison' example - whilst Mandela could have chosen to be bitter and vindictive, he decided to educate himself and understand his captors, so when he got out he could make positive change. Such a powerful message, and a nice theme for Mindful Monday!!
Thanks @riverflows 😊 I had a few ideas and I kept coming back to this. For me I need the constant reminder, this is one of the hardest aspects in my opinion. It helped a lot to have such a person who made an huge impact on others simply due to keeping his mind focused on the what is rather than the what was.
