The Hardest Thing in the World 2


Yesterday, we established that the hardest thing in the world
is indeed sustaining a thought - holding it captive and thinking
of nothing else.

How do you do this?

Well, like every other thing - you practise. A wise person once
said practise makes permanent not perfect.

The best way to hold a thought captive is to first of all be at ease.

Don't let there be any resistance - in your mind and body

Start by making yourself comfortable. With eyes closed, breathe in
deeply and exhale slowly. After 5 tries, focus on what you want to
think about and in a mood of ease, think about it only.

The reason for breathing is to lower your brain "noise". This is
actually your brain wave frequency when you are active and
excited. It is between 7-14 Hz (cycles per second). It is the brain
noise that activates all the thoughts and the monks of old know that
by breathing deeply, your lower your brain frequecy and blood
pressure.

While focusing on a thought,any other thought comes along, just allow it
to flow through your mind. If you give it any attention, your mind
wanders to it by focusing on it briefly till another thought comes along
seconds later and before you know it, you've thought about 30 different
things in 30 seconds!

This is the easiest way to start the serene art of meditating.

I have found by experience that the most important things in life are
Focus and Persistence
No amount of genius, talent, influence or whatever it is we crave can
guaranty the realization of any goal we set without these two things.

So, begin these game of holding thought captive by Focusing on a
thought and persistently practising till you can hold it for as long as
you desire.

The Hardest Thing in the World

The hardest thing in the world?! What the heck might that be?

You'd find out pretty soon.

ONLY 5% of the world's population are RICH, SUCCESSFUL and seem to be
living the fairy tale life of their creation. They determine the what their dream
life is and go right ahead to live it.

Have you ever wondered why it is just 5% of 6.7 billion people?

Well, the reason is why i'm writing this.

The Hardest thing in the world is not physical! It is something you cannot
touch or feel, smell or see.

In the realm where it exists, the 5 senses are irrelevant.

Not to keep you in so much suspense, the world's hardest job is keeping a
sustained thought and blocking out every other that does not support it.

Try it out and see for yourself. Just think about one thing for the next 10
minutes...No, no let's make it 5minutes. Just hold on to this thought and nothing
else.

If you can do for 3o seconds, you deserve a medal.

This simple exercise is the reason why a lot of us wonder why we can't live our
dream lives and end up looking up to some "hero" - a football star, an
entertainer or some politician, artist or billionaire business mogul.

You should be your own hero first of all and then maybe add others. In Mariah
Carey's sweet voice, "...The Hero lies in you"

Besides, you shoul NEVER look up to your hero, for then you'd be insulting your
own genius.

Rather, you should look into them - what did he do to become what he is that i
admire with such awe?

Well, like i said earlier, the First secret is to HOLD THE THOUGHT OF YOUR
DESIRE IN YOUR MIND PERPETUALLY till it becomes your reality in this
physical realm.

You cannot travel in the mind and remain still outside.

If you have been there in the mind, you'd be there in the
body.
If you determine what you really want in life and hold the thought of it alone in your
mind, wonders begin to happen, things begin to fall in place and you just start to
meet the right people that can help you achieve your desired dream.

This is what the Bible refers to has praying without ceasing.

Have great day while you think about this. I hope to write more on this later.

Entrepreneurship

The Entrepreneur is the individual advancing the spirit of increase.
The desire for increase is inherent in everything that has life. And it
is the entrepreneur that best illustrates this in the realm of Value Creation.

Entrepreneurship is the key to REAL financial freedom. Total Freedom is
one of the most important things any human can have. The liberty to make
your own decisions, knowing fully well that you'd reap the harvest - Good or
Bad.

The entrepreneur is a visionary, a binding force, a creator of value of any
sort.

I am on my entrepreneur's journey and it has been exciting. The challenges
are there though and sometimes i don't even know i've not eaten
because of the intense concentration on achieving what i have seen as
possible.

Offering value by bringing the elements of value creation together is such
fun and this result in meeting different people and building a network.

Remember, you it is the valu of the network you form that determines
your wealth. In other words, your network determines your networth.

I was an employee for 1 year and a half until 31/12/08 and i have since
become an entrepreneur. Believe me, my mindset is different and the
relationships i have gotten into and the people i have met from different
fields of expertise, i won't have had if i was still at someone else's job.

If you're an entrepreneur, Kudos to you and keep it up.

If you're not, you can begin by mentally preparing to be one of us.
