“The mind is everything. Which is a problem if yours keeps wandering off like a toddler with scissors.”
The mind is the architect of reality, but sometimes the builder runs off mid-project with something dangerous in hand. To master the mind is not to silence it, but to keep it from slicing the curtains while your back is turned.
Focus vs. Folly
A sharp mind is a gift, yet an untended one is chaos in motion. Left unwatched, it cuts paths you never meant to travel.
The Lesson in Awareness
Awareness is the leash that keeps the toddler-mind from wrecking the room. When guided, it creates; when abandoned, it destroys. The difference is not in the scissors, but in the supervision.
Practical Guidance
Notice the wandering: Catch your mind when it strays toward mischief.
Guide the energy: Give it safe tasks that build, not break.
Stay vigilant: Protect your house from the toddler with blades.
Today’s Practice
Today, follow your mind — and gently take away its scissors.
