1. Master Your Mind (Garden)
We need to cultivate our minds like a gardener cultivates a magnificent garden. Sowing good seeds will eventually produce tasty fruits and beautiful flowers. Improve your quality of life by improving your quality of thoughts. It’s impossible to remove negative thoughts from your mind completely. Letting your negative thoughts take over is equivalent to under-watering your plants and leaving all your trash in your garden.

The Call of the Soul is the first stage of self-awakening when you sense a gap between who you are and who you could be. This awakening creates a longing for fulfillment, happiness, and harmony that external success cannot satisfy. It is a crucial step toward discovering your destiny, but it requires courage to face your fears, doubts, and insecurities. The Call of the Soul can happen at any time and in any situation, and it should not be ignored or resisted. By following this inner voice, you can discover your true purpose and live your best life.

5 Steps To Fulfill Your Objectives For Life
1)Form a clear mental image of the outcome. The Clearer the mental picture, the more effective the process would be.
2. Get 'Positive Pressure'. Pressure is not always a bad thing. Pressure can inspire you to achieve great ends.
3.Attach a timeline to it. To breathe life into a goal you must attach a precise deadline to it.
4. Follow the Magic Rule of 21. Follow the new activity for 21 days in a row.
5. Remember to have fun in the process. The more joyful and loving the process or activity is, the more easy the journey will be.
Also remember, that a goal not commited to paper is no goal at all.

A Most Extraordinary Garden
Our mind is like a garden. We must always nourish it and cultivate it. If the weeds take over, anxiety and negative thoughts will take over. Peace of mind will be hard to achieve if we kept on brooding on the past. Focus on the good and keep on thinking of how to make it better.

Controlling Ourselves
We might not be able to control the things around us like traffic or our neighbor but we can control how we think and react to it.
