RE: Random Topic Wednesday - special prize inside(The importance of journal keeping)

I think you should talk about the "Power Of Now", which is a book talking about the importance of living in the present. You don't have to read the book of course, but it changed my life, so check it out if you have a chance!

Sort:  

Can you elaborate a bit? What idea from the book comes to mind most often?

Yeah, I would say the idea that our soul or consciousness and our mind are two separate entities, and emotions such as anger are are just a way for our mind to remain in control.

If we are able to gain control of over our mind and quite the thoughts meant to distract us with the past and future, then we will reach a level of enlightenment that is synonymous with living in the moment.

The ideas are kinda out there, but I was able to take some really valuable ideas that helped strengthen my mind when I needed it the most!

Sounds like a great book indeed! Sometimes it's not just the crazy ideas, but the simple ones, that appear obvious when we read them, the most powerful ones.
