Discipline your mind.
from The Art of Happiness: A Handbook for Living by Dalai Lama XIV
If you do this mental disciplinary action every day, you will soon realize that you are making positive changes in your life, and you will notice an increased sense of internal happiness.
How to Apply This
-
Use your day positively.
Every day, as soon as you get up, tell yourself, “I will utilize this day in a positive way. I should not waste this very day.” -
Reflect upon your day.
Every night, before you go to bed, think about all you’ve done that day and ask yourself, “Did I utilize this day as I planned?” If yes, then great! If no, then. . . -
Identify your mistakes and correct them tomorrow.
If you did not utilize your day as planned, identify what exactly you did or did not do. Do your best to not repeat that mistake on the next day.
