Your State of Mind Is Your Choice

Each and every one of you has the unique ability to establish your very own state of mind. In other words, you have the innate ability to choose your very own unique mental attitude. Whether or not you decide to cultivate an attitude that is positive or negative is totally up to you. Talk about total freedom! The power to make changes in your reality including, but not limited to, your surroundings, lifestyle, employment, friends, health, and just about anything else in your personal world is well within your control. It’s all your choice.

A Vast Storehouse of Information

Just like the hard drive on your computer, your mind, in particular your subconscious mind, is a vast storehouse of information. Your subconscious literally assimilates everything that it is exposed to. It can be better compared to a tape recorder, recording every event and incident that occurs. So as a result you have, in essence, produced a cultivation within your mind.

This cultivation could then be compared to a field of crop that a farmer tends. So in essence you are similar in intent to a farmer cultivating the land to produce a field of crop. If you tend to your mind, filling it with healthy “food for thought” then you will reap a bountiful healthy harvest. If, on the other hand, you do not tend to your mind and filter out the negative then your harvest will surely suffer. It will be like the farmer’s crop that has been overtaken with weeds, insects and has been deprived of healthy nutrient rich fertilizer, proper hydration and bountiful sunlight.

Garbage In Garbage Out

Many people feel as if they have no absolute control over their mental state, and because of this their mind has been sown with the seeds of negativity. As we see in the Law of Attraction, what you sow is what you reap. In another example and even better yet, referring back to computers, garbage in garbage out. If you are constantly dwelling on the negative side of things or you are focusing on the bad things that could possibly happen then that is what will manifest in your world. So this negative state of mind that a lot of people experience is the direct result of their negative way of thinking combined with the Law of Attraction. All of this will equate to a very negative mental attitude.
