LIFE IS A MIND GAME

Spread the love



The idea that life is a mind game suggests that experiences, perceptions, and outcomes are either, or highly influenced by, our mental states, beliefs, and attitudes. 

In that regard, one would raise questions about the depths of the mind, which creates reality; it captures the dynamic between ideas, feelings, and outcomes. Perceiving life from this angle as a mind game could help people exert more effort and focus their minds and emotions on tasks, goals, and personal well-being.

Everything in life happens for a reason 

The phrase ‘there is always a reason for everything one comes across in life ‘ is very much true.

There is no success and failure, no good and bad, no happiness and sorrow in life and all things should be in the correct perspective. Everything that happens in people’s life whether they are happy or sad has its own colour and its own level. If the so-called adverse circumstances of life are seen as negative then life is full of suffering. 

It is, therefore we must try to train our minds so that they can take a more positive view. People should always attempt to see the positive side of all the situations that may be deemed as negative. With this attitude of yours, you will become much more broad-minded and relaxed. 

 Making our lives more meaningful and happier

Optimism has been found to promote a healthier life, effective problem-solving, personal achievement, and general well-being. Indeed, positive thinking includes concentrating on the better aspects of any circumstance, hoping only for the better, and remaining optimistic. This gives meaning to our lives and makes us happier.

A person should endeavour to be good and should attempt to be good.

It is not an issue of faith but of reason. If one becomes as gentle as children and attempts to shape the mental clay and accept a few things as they are, one’s heart will be content. 

Here, I am not saying we should withdraw ourselves from our normal activities. I am just trying to make you understand that, to find an opportunity to show you, and above all, to be at ease and comfortable with the various solutions at times that I have to explain to you. 
The things we use, the people that we encounter or the events that we experience in the course of our lives are things that we do not decide; they are predetermined by a supernatural being. And concerning this we have no control, but that superior power has endowed us with a tool called the brain and another tool called willpower. 
Positively, we can; with the right thinking and tenacity, we can alter our lives for the better. 

Growth Mindset

A fixed mindset defines talents and intelligence as the individual’s fixed abilities. The growth mindset entails the notion of life as a mind game as we are in a position to train ourselves to look for opportunities even in the so-called problems. That is why the growth mindset allows realizing the potential and overcoming all the existing barriers.


Strong Will

If your mind is fixed on, for instance, they want to change it. Then what have to do is to powder that very thing with a strong will and let it absorb new things and actions.

When one is assured of strength within him, then, the challenge is more than halfway through.

Turn to yourself to identify what you feel comfortable with and what you feel uncomfortable to handle. You will observe that everything that you find yourself doing unwillingly causes you discomfort once you are done. 


Here is where the real work starts,” say to yourself with authority every morning that, “I can change and I have the power to change. I will change. While practising this theory, train yourself to hold this thought throughout in your subconscious level, use the guide of your inner self, and then start the work.

 THE TALENTS OF RESILIENCE & ADAPTABILITY 

Life is unpredictable, as are the adversities that come with it; that is why only the honing of the skills of adaptability as well as the ability to get back on track are valuable.
Resilience may be described as that psychological characteristic that enables an individual to cope with the effects of negative situations in life and in fact, retain a smile on the face even in most trying circumstances.

Mastery of flexibility is one of the backup skills that will assist us to manoeuvre around the highs and the lows with ease and persistence. Some of the aspects of resilience that will be constructed include ways, means or strategies for managing adversities, a support framework and meaning/purpose in life. 



The Impact of Stress

Stress is an inevitable part of life, it is almost impossible to guard against all the ill effects of stress. Few, are significant if we go with the idea or perception of managing stress in the right way. Stress is a health problem ranging from some anxiety and depressive disorders to cardiovascular diseases and obesity where stress well managed boosts our capability and quality of life. 
Learning stress management through techniques of relaxation exercises, learning how to manage our time as well and positive thinking go a long way in balancing up our minds in the mind game of life.

The Power of Thoughts

 Undeniably, A powerful force in the human spirit is the mind.
The power of the mind in itself is that by having a positive mind, a person can attract similar experiences in life. 

According to this principle, it can be realized that positive focused thoughts with intentions can actualize positive ends. Some of the games of life are in nurturing one’s mind to focus on the positive aspects and work towards realizing set goals through visualization.

Visualization and Goal Setting

Visualization refers to the act of creating a plan of what one would want to gain or make happen in his or her mind. It has been attested in numerous research that by doing so, performance increases visualization leads to the accomplishment of intended goals.


 Life as a mind game therefore draws from this principle and it is more of mental preparedness that prepares the mind towards success. 
In addition to goal setting, visualization helps one to differentiate and consolidate one’s purpose, equally or even better maintain attention and is always on the move in the achievement of the goals.

Practising Positive Thinking

It means a state where one has a positive attitude towards something and believes that the outcome shall always be the best. Consequently, it is possible to build up resources and cope with the various levels of stress and the practice can lead to the production of well-being. This is because to win the game of life called to mind, one has to have a positive mind that goes through different tests of life to emerge a winner.

Embracing Continuous Learning


Life itself is a process that is accompanied by development and takes place in every person. As such, by taking the mentality of embracing change, which means embracing the unknown, our lives will be much more fulfilling than embracing simple change in a bid to broaden our horizons. As in any mind game that we call life, adaptability and constant learning make us capable of facing the world no matter how it comes.
As for me, the idea of perceiving life as the game of the mind really changed my perspective, thus, from the reel reality to the mind reality. In perception, attitude, and thought, it is often possible to speak of a much fuller, more meaningful, and purposeful kind of life. The game of life calls for, therefore, self-awareness, self-awareness, a positive attitude, goal setting and effective learning.
When these principles are adopted one is endowed with the ability to lead a clear, strong and happy life. Last of all life as a mind game underlines to us that the greatest strength is in the mind, and by creating this strength, we can form that which is perceivable, and attain true greatness.
