Monkey mind
Date: 17th July 2022
It’s the part of our brain that doesn’t rest. It’s also the part of us that creates self-doubt, creates a lot of confusion.
I think the monkey mind wants only one thing – Comfort. It doesn’t want you to try new stuff, stuff that scares you.
It stifles your creativity, makes you lazy, and makes you not wanna do things. The part that easily gets distracted
Well, of course, the solution is simple but not easy – Just do it.
This reminds me of a quote – “Sometimes all you need is 20 seconds of insane courage”
I know this might apply only in situations where you’re scared or afraid that you’ll embarrass yourself. But what if we use this for little things as well?
- Don’t wanna go to the gym? just put on your shoes and get out of your house
- Don’t wanna read a book? just read a couple of pages
