Learn to detox your mind for success

The definition of toxic waste is, and I quote, “unwanted chemicals that are the result of manufacturing or industry and that are poisonous to living things.” (Webster’s Dictionary “Toxic Waste”). Close appointment. This type of waste is so toxic that it is placed in special containers and buried deep within the Earth. Nobody wants to live near it because of its poisonous side effects. There is a different type of toxic waste that I am going to share with you today; It’s not about the environment, but about an inner poison that will destroy your self-esteem and willpower to succeed. Yes, it is contagious through your attitude and actions. You will learn how to detoxify your mind from this poison so that you can reprogram your mind for success.

1. Attitude

Nobody wants to be around a person who is in a bad mood. There is a scene in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, where Kylo Ren sees an empty chair in the interrogation room, in a burst of outrage, he immediately begins to destroy the room with his lightsaber, because Rey managed to escape. Two Stormtroopers approached the room, but turned to avoid Kylo Ren’s wrath. When you’re in a bad mood, you most likely put everyone else around you in a bad mood.

2. Actions

You become a toxic waste to everyone else through your actions. In the field of self-improvement, we call it self-defeat and it begins when a person admits defeat before an event occurs. When there is evidence of self-doubt among a group, it is caused by one person, who spends most of his time in toxic waste, metaphorically speaking. They would share their poison by making these statements:

A. Why bother, we would just lose anyway.

B. They are smarter and more talented than us.

C. This project is a waste of time, let’s do something else that’s fun.

I will show you how to detoxify your mind from these toxic waste so that you can be successful and a leader among your family and friends. There is a movie clip from “Facing the Giants” which is posted on YouTube. During this clip, one of the players was asking his coach a question about a particular team that they were going to play later in the football season. Without hesitation, the team captain (Brock) spoke up and showed signs of defeat because that team was far superior to them. The coach made Brock come forward and wanted him to do the “death scan”, but there was a catch, Brock had to carry another player on his back and be blindfolded at the same time. The coach didn’t put a limit on how far Brock is supposed to go, instead the coach said, “I want to see the best of you.” Close quote. When Brock started to crawl through death, he had no problems at first, but as it continued, fatigue began to set in and soon, thoughts of quitting filled his mind. Brock begged his coach to stop; the fire and pain were affecting Brock’s body, the trainer replied, “Then let it burn!” Close quote.

This is my message to you, burn all those personal toxic waste that prevents you from moving forward in life. The treatment and cure for your personal toxic waste is to forget yourself and go to work, do not make any excuses why you cannot complete a certain project. Have someone by your side, get an item or be in a certain place that inspires you to greater heights, so that your days will be filled with peace and happiness.

Starting today, learn how to detoxify your mind and be a better person.
