I’ve been studying Buddhism for around 3 years now and I’ve learned that 1 of the best things that you could ever do is to never look back. Seriously!!! We’re not going in that direction. The world is a beautiful place if you take a little time each day to notice it. I used to just walk outside on auto pilot with no feeling or sight of the things around me. For many years, I was just simply trying to get where I was going with not much awareness of anything. Take a little time each day to feel and see everything around you. Well its called mindfulness. Remember when you were a kid and everything was so cool, new and amazing to ya?? A warm breeze, a snowy day, the rain or just stepping outside in the morning or looking at the stars at night. Well its kind of like training your mind to feel like that again. Everyday. Go for a walk and notice and take in every feeling, sight and sensation. Train your brain to only think positively. A few years ago I hated the world and I literally only expected the negatives in life. Its like I was just waiting for negative things to happen. 1 morning I woke up about 2 am and decided that I just didn’t wanna live that way anymore. I found Buddhism and started reading. I’ve literally forced my mind to only have a positive outlook on life and I never looked back. You do not need to change your religion in any way to incorporate Buddhism into it. Its just helped me so much over the years and I wanted to share it. I used to be an extremely negative person!!! I did it. I escaped it!!! If you’re ever feeling down, negative or having a hard time in life, then you can too. I encourage anyone to start reading up on mindfulness, Buddhism and training your mind. There’s just so many books out there. I noticed a positive change in me from the first book I picked up. I remember reading a book called “Training the mind in the great way” and I had a wake up call after reading the 1st chapter. I guess I just slowly started thinking more positively. I stopped looking back. Stopped living in the past. Even if you have to force your mind to do this like I did, its a good thing and its worth it. Were all human at the end of the day and life is beautiful. The best technique in life is to think and act positive 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and don’t ever look back. Were not going in that direction!!! I hope you have an awesome day. Thank ya for reading.
