Nature Helps Shift State of Mind
Ability to manage your state of mind can determine how successful you are in your career, relationships, and potential for creating abundance.
Suzie didn’t make the kids lunches the night before or get their clothes ready, so she is rushing and ends up taking the bumpy side road because the traffic is heavy on the freeway, and she is late.
Nancy popped out of bed early to meditate and fix a healthy breakfast for herself and the family. She listens to soothing music on the way to work and arrives early enough to gather her thoughts before jumping into the challenges of the day.
Which person could be more effective at work that day? It depends upon each person’s ability to manage their state of mind effectively to cope with circumstances. Their thoughts will dictate how they express their feelings.
