[Time-Management] 365 Thoughts for Self Development!

 

1st April 2013

Close Your Eyes

Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life â€" think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success, that is the way great spiritual giants are produced.

â€" Swami Vivekananda

 

Try a very difficult exercise today! Keep your eyes closed for a solid 10 minutes! Stop reading this; set the timer in your mobile for 10 minutes; determine that you will remain eyes-closed for a solid 10 minutes, and close your eyes. You should not open your eyes until the timer goes off. You will realise how difficult it is.

Our mind and attention is mainly distracted by our eyes and our ears. If only we control these two sensory organs, we can substantially improve our concentration and focus. Whenever you are travelling by a car (and if you are not driving!), try this self imposed training. Focus all your attention on some important issue that you are presently handling. By keeping your eyes closed, you will be able to focus all your thoughts around the issue on hand. Slowly you can increase the duration of this exercise.

Try this today!
