2 Applications That Made Me a Better Thinker & Writer
There is so much noise in the world, how will you know what your voice says?Or do you simply accept anything anyone suggests — believing it came from inside you?If someone with authority and good communication skills throws facts and data and draws a storyline that connects with you, will you accept whatever this person says?This is the reason why we, as normal human beings, are becoming more miserable — our life is becoming a collection of ‘what the world has to say about everything. We don’t feel ourselves. We don’t listen to our mental voice. We trust and blindly follow the advice, opinions, and facts suggested by others because they sound powerful.’ Whereas people who want to make money out of your innocence get their way easily because they have learned the art of storytelling.The process of delivering a speech, writing an article, recording a video, or writing a book involves one common thing — Making you believe in something, whatever the idea may be.You, however, don’t pay attention to it. That’s why you watch one video after another. Reading one book after another without doing your own research. By the end, you make your brain a puppy who follows the ball rather than thinking about the matter on your own.I realized the impact on myself almost 2 years back when I felt mentally handicapped — incapable of making informed decisions and feeling that there are no opinions of my own in any matter. I say what I read, watch, or hear in the world.That’s when I became more mindful and created a dedicated system for myself to consume knowledge mindfully and bring my own opinions by the end of the process to understand ‘what I understand and make of things.’
