Mind your MIND!

Imagine someone bursts into your living room early in the morning carrying a bin full of refuse and dump them on your woolen carpet. What would you do to that person? Well, your guess is as good as mine and I'm pretty sure, this person might end up in jail or on admission at the hospital. Unfortunately we allow people to dump "refuse" in our minds almost everyday and we do nothing about it. Through television programs, radio, smart phones and the internet, we give total access to all manner of content to find accommodation in our minds without any deliberate effort to filter or monitor. Pessimistic, coarse, uncouth and even blasphemous words, music, pictures, videos and shows are given unrestricted access to our minds and by extension our lives.
The mind is the factory of our future. It is the place where the seeds of thought are generated. Our thoughts determine our decisions, our decisions produces our actions and our actions create our future. If we are careful to provide security for our homes and offices, why should we leave our minds without protection. Protect your mind by being thoroughly selective and circumspect in the content you allow to enter your mind. Guard it with all your heart. Remember, whatsoever a man thinketh, that he is.
