Sanity Check: Are You Out of Your Mind?
Do you know this expression, “are you out of your mind?” I vouch to rewrite it. Instead, let’s start saying “are you out of your heart?”
Your Mind Is the One Creating Problems
When things are going crazy, chances are that craziness was created and carried on by your mind.
The mind is the ultimate creator of fear. A mind that is not mastered and cleared is fertile ground for overthinking, over-worrying, anxiety, stress, and creating all sorts of terrible scenarios. Disconnected, it gets us into a survival mindset.
The mind does so by never being in the present moment: it is either overthinking the past or worried about the future. This means it is always somewhere that doesn’t exist, making it bound to illusions.
The past is gone, take your lessons and walk forward. The future is not there yet, so ask your heart what it wants and use your mind constructively to create it.
In other words, when things are way too crazy, it is not because we are “out of our minds “ — it is because we are too much in it, caught up to a completely unhealthy level.
