Thought Management
If we are stuck or trapped in our own thoughts we will not have control over them. When we observe them, we separate ourselves from them and we provide a space, and this is how we can control them and channel them in the direction we wish. In order to have control over something we must look at it from a certain distance, like an impartial observer. This practice helps us to realise the influences, both positive and negative, that there are in our life.
Observing our thoughts (which we do in the process of meditation) is the first step in understanding and, in the last analysis, taking full responsibility for them.

Message for the day 07-04-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
Where there is enthusiasm, there is the ability to create one's own
fortune.
Projection: When things go wrong, or we don't seem to get what we are working
for we tend to get disheartened and begin to blame our fate. When
we get this feeling we can no longer give our best to improve the
situation resulting in a lack of progress in our life.
Solution: We need to remind ourselves that our fate is in our hands. The main
thing is not to become passive just blaming our fate but to work
with enthusiasm. The more we work with positivity; we will find
ourselves making a very high fortune for ourselves.
