What controls your Mind - The Daily Dose #2

in #life7 years ago

The modern human is subjugated to never-ceasing work, greed, lust, fear, and even tabloid gossips to name a few.  these are vectors that string us along becoming ever difficult to overcome on a daily basis. 

Social media, Television, news outlets are all creating content that latches on to the psyche, majority of content is designed to seduce and provoke.This even goes as far down to the foods we eat that are constantly being engineered to induce craving and addiction. In this day and age, poison can disguise itself as sustenance.

Take just 5 minutes of your time to ponder upon all the different mediums and luxuries present on a day to day basis that are just demanding for a sizeable portion of your brain power. Every thing is contending for a share of our mind, acting as forces that seizes us apart from the things that are most important to us. 

Maybe the reason you feel tired all the time is because your inner temptations are pulling you in various directions. Maybe your thoughts are causing you to be bound like a puppet and tossed around like a rag doll. 

The daily dose just recommends us to take some time off, unwind, unplug and reset. Scrutinise what we are being attentive to and break free from being sheep. After all, we are manipulated by passions but defined by our values. 

Sure, resetting and paying close attention to our distractions is not easy. But isn't that easier than being Mind Controlled. 


The daily dose is just some daily thoughts put into writing.
