Feeding his brain with the right information
Everything that enters our mind acts more or less strongly in our minds one way or another. Do not be naive and believe you are able to manage all the information you're exposed to. We must at all costs choose what goes into our minds, you must avoid exposure to sources of information that is negative and does not allow you to entertain or to grow.
Life must be lived with a sense of pleasure and the evolution of the human race. Any other goal in life should be consistent with these simple principles, but very difficult to achieve when you allow any kind of information reach your mind. Deliberately I subtract any reference to any concept of faith or religion, please include it if you want, it blends very well in the evolution of the human race, unless of course you have regressive or closed religion.
Feeding your mind is not a simple task, it is not easy to choose the information we want to receive, most of the time we received this information involuntarily and without supervision or even a choice. By cons, a large amount of information we received is entirely under our control, it is thought that the simplest things such as television news, newspapers and even to some extent what from the Internet.
Many people attribute their depressive feelings, negative and angry at their childhoods, their financial situations, their social contexts and even disadvantageous to their spouse. In reality there are certainly some things, but for most of us it is mainly the fact that the information we received on a daily basis maintain the contextual causes and developing new ones that are not part of our lives.
For example, it is difficult to watch starving children , with no opportunity to learn to possibly improve their lives, who are forced to work at a young age. These images and stories affect us and often we feel powerless, cynical about society or even guilty for not doing more for these children other than give money to implement desperately trying to help. These situations are generally presented in a questionable way.
At the same time we get impatient with our own children because they cannot appreciate the extraordinary opportunity they have to live under skies of peace and opportunity available to a minority living on this earth. We ask our children to have an adult behavior to face situations and in doing so we provoqued conflicting family situations due to information presented out of context and above that are not adapted to the level of development and consciousness children can have, teenagers and even young adults under 30 years.
This example may be too complex for certain person, but it affects a large number of people who use this information to understand their children things that are totally beyond their reach. As a human being you can change the world by changing yourself, but certainly not trying to change others, and even less with examples from a context that is quite inappropriate as the example described above.
Of course all this gives a final result a gloomy atmosphere, negative, not constructive or even demoralizing for both adults and children. Such information shall not be received so sensational as do most of the media now. This information must be gathered objectively and in particular with an overview of the situation, not just the consequences that are sometimes less dramatic than what we present. Hence, the importance of managing what comes, do not let the mass media to invade your mind, you must avoid, condemn, ignore it and especially do not expose yourself to these sources of unhealthy information and devastating.
Tell me how you manage what feeds your brain.
