Mind Your Mind

When we say 'mind', we don't just mean the mind in our brain or head. The mind is everywhere, with every atom. Wherever we feel anything, the mind is there. The mind feels.

 Where does the mind resides?  Our whole body contains the mind. 

 We need to mind our mind. By this I mean we need to take care of our mind, as though our mind is our physical possession, like how we take care of our looks. There are 4 major ways to mind our mind:

 1. Feed our mind with good food
The mind feeds on foods of thoughts, emotions and feelings. Feed your mind with good food and your mind will be healthy and strong. If you feed it with junk, your mind will become junky. 

 2. Calm our mind regularly 
We are often so busy that our mind is never at rest, at peace of in a state of calm. To calm our mind, we just need to stop thinking and just take 3 deep breadths, with our mind fully focused on our breathing and nothing else. If you do this mindfulness practise regularly, you will find that you become a more cooler and more calm person

 3. Become Aware of our mind 
Often our body takes its natural course and we become like robots and not aware of what we are doing. Like we will naturally open the fridge once we are inside the kitchen, and seeing a drink inside the fridge, we will take it out and drink it even though we may not be thirsty at that moment. Being aware of our mind is to live life not on auto-pilot but on awareness. If you are aware, you will behave less in reactive ways and more in responsive ways

 4. Be mindful. 
Being mindful is to be aware of what is around, and be alert to things happening and absorb whatever good the environment is. Being mindful is also about to take the right response to what is happening.  If there is pollution, a mindful person would be aware of it, and choose a right response, and do not react to it. This is because reacting is futile as you cannot change what has happened and your reaction (like getting angry) would only make yourself more unhappy.  A mindful person would respond appropriately, like wear masks. 

 The opposite of being mindful is to have your mind full. When your mind is full, you cannot take in any new material any more. That's why people with minds full will find attending training "not useful".  In fact it is their mind fullness that is causing the blockage. We need to turn ourselves from being mind full to being mindful if we want to be effective in learning.

How to be mindful during and after training?

First thing is to pay attention to what you are thinking when the trainer is explaining the concepts. Do not judge or evaluate what you are hearing, but think about how you can apply them to your life

Second is to ask questions to clarify any doubts that you may have so that you would not be more confused

Third is to remember the key points and relate them into your life. The best way to remember content is to relate it to your life right now. Like I relate to the haze by looking at my own face to see if i can do something to protect it.  In this way the content has meaning to me immediately

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

Kindness as a Way of Life: How Kindness can Reward You 6 Times Over

Kindness as a Way of Life by Andy Ng Kindness is a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, enriches human connections, and has the power to transform lives. It goes beyond mere acts of charity or random good deeds. To me, kindness, when practiced as a way of life, becomes a profound philosophy that can shape our interactions with others, the world around us, and even our own well-being. In this article, we will explore the multifaceted aspects of kindness as a way of life, touching on non-violent communication, the limitations of traditional charity, the potential harms of helping, the deliberate cultivation of kindness, and the incredible rewards it brings. 1.       Non-Violent Communication Non-violent communication (NVC) is a key component of practicing kindness as a way of life. Developed by Marshall B. Rosenberg, NVC emphasizes empathetic communication that seeks to understand and connect with others on a deeper level. It encourages ...
