At This Moment

When I am feeling like I have not felt before too often, when my mind seems to be free of some worries that hog me generally, when my mind has some confidence, a sense of sudden yet not fully comprehendible clarity, I have realized some things:
  • It is very important to have a mind that is not used to routine. An open mind, a creative mind.
  • Such a state of mind is necessary because I think it is a state that knows no hatred. It is a state that knows no jealousy. It is a state that has curiosity. It is a state that has some puzzlement. All these factors interplay and gives enough energy for us to focus on something intensely without being distracted by other external, ephemeral factors. And the more we concentrate, the more we understand and the more we understand, the more our revelations are and the more our revelations are the more is the joyous perspective towards life. And that is all what is needed.
  • Do the things that are fun and only fun. What is fun for others may not be fun for you. Approach things with joy and an inquisitive mind.
To quote from Sigmund Freud's psychoanalytic theory, it is very important to balance the id and super ego so that a sense of satisfaction is pursued.
