Our minds are creating all the time. One of the most important times for creating is the first 30 minutes of day after waking up. It has been said your day could be likened to a ship and the first 30 minutes is the rotor of the day. This period of time sets the direction for your day.
I found myself waking up the other day with some less than desirable thoughts. Since I have been consciously working on observing my thoughts, I knew I didn't want to experience the effects of these thoughts. The thoughts and ideas that come from our minds are the Cause side of the equation and what we experience in our environment are the Effects of those Causes.
Its has been said so many ways:
"As a man thinketh, so is he."
"You become what you think about all day long"
"Imagination is the scissors of the mind"
"Where ever the mind goes, the behind follows!"
So I decided to not allow the thoughts to take root in my mind and create a mess. I decided to consciously focus on higher level thoughts such as life, love, wisdom, joy, omnipotence, omnipresence, and omniscience.
The end result of training my mind to think on these type of thoughts was a very peaceful day...but it all started in that first 30 minutes.
