3. Never believe in everything that you think
Our brain is capable of having a million thoughts each day that includes thoughts which are:
- Random
- Toxic
- Negative
- Self-destructive, and many more.
If we start believing every one of these thoughts, chances are that we will lose our minds in the end.
Observe your mind. Observe your thoughts.
Be wise enough not to identify yourself with your thoughts, especially if they are toxic and self-destructive. Always remember that you are not your mind. You are not your thoughts. You are the awareness behind these thoughts.
