The focus for this edition is quite amazing because is a present challenge that one goes through. There are different approaches to what problems entails however my discussion will be on the problem of the mind. Before I go further, I would like to shade light on what I considered problem.
Problem is like a task or situation which one finds it difficult to deal with. A problem is what can't be easily handled but critically a solution could be provided. Problems are unique because what serves as problem to me might be someone else solution. What you can't do is someone's strength and ability. That's how life is. For me one of the problem I would like to discuss is the issue of mind. I have found it very difficult to affect other people's mind to bring the necessary change. My major problem is the transformation of a mind to a positive dimension.
The mind is the controller or engine room of every human being. The mind is the battlefield of every human being. The place of decision or conclusion of any matter lies within the mind. The mind can kill and can also preserve, it can protect and it can spoil. When the mind is tamed, there is every possibility for the total transformation of such an individual. When the mind is fixed, virtually everything is settled in the human system as far as I am concerned.
Ever since I was growing up, one of the challenging factors I noticed about human is the ability to accept new change. To unlocked a tradition or a pattern of thing. Once a child grasped something from childhood, it becomes difficult to make such child change to a new thing. Let me share an experience of what happened many years ago. I used to eat pork meat very well before but when I became a teenager, the whole appetite died off completely till date. I don't like the smell. What actually led to this was when my mother used the pork meat to cook rice hmmmm that was the final bus stop to this. My mind refused to accept anything associated with this kind of meat no matter how you prepared it..
The mind with my mind is that I hardly accept easily what I don't know or don't have at least an inside into. It takes me more time before I could confide or build a reasonable trust level over a particular thing. During one of our outreaches to a particular community for four days. We went and settled down in one of the villages unknown to us that they have been having a serious conflict amongst themselves which made every of them create their own dwelling places. Not up to one kilometre before you see the next one hmmm the unfortunate thing was that all the hamlet had village heads because of the varied mindset they had. All those closed bye refused to come and see what we were doing. The first day was boring and refused to be discouraged. The subsequent days God gave us good strategies and a sizeable of them were transformed. What a mind set? Is not easy to win the mind.
The greatest problem for me on the surface of the earth is mind. Once it's properly set Wow you leave to enjoy. The mind can be poor of ideas, full of negativity, wrong mindset towards finance, towards marriage, wrong mindset towards life endeavour, wrong mindset towards one another,etc
Thanks for visiting and reading through.
