As the thought began ruminating in my mind, I knew thats it. I won't be able to go to sleep now. Being a little pragmatist myself, I know I had to do something to resolve that energy that is slowly building inside me . I really dislike it to keeping building on the negative emotions that could lead me to anxiety and restlessness.
A timely reminder pop into my head, it was a take away lesson which I have learned from this morning podcast. It was an interview with Tony Robbins and he mentioned that the biggest challenge in anyone is to master what we focus on. It was like an AHA moment for me. It's true if I keep focusing on the issue, it will not go away, instead focusing on the desired outcome would greatly relieve me . And so I knew I had to project a new thought in my mind which is the outcome I wanted. Later I took out my phone and started writing the email that could lead to settling the problem. After that I told myself everything will be good and believe in the the outcome.
I have learned in the past, sometimes we need to trick our mind into believing the new reality even before it manifest itself. Our mind only see the possibilities of things to happen. If you only hold negative thoughts in your mind, it will eventually come to reality.
After concluding my email, somehow, my mind drifted to Palu Palu victims of earthquake and tsunami. It was devastating to learn how natural disaster can dramatically change your life. My concerns was pale in comparison to what this people is going through.My prayer is with them and the many volunteers in the rescue and humanitarian effort. As I began to take control of my focus, I felt calmer and eventually dozed off.
