Verbose Validator Posted June 8, 2024 Report Posted June 8, 2024 Think of all the things your thoughts can do. It may seem like a silly, simple invitation, but it's easy to forget how awesome our brains and streams of consciousness are. Afterall, our thoughts can control our mood, our chemistry, solve problems and even pave the way to new ideas! The very act of thinking and pondering and reflecting and... well, you get the picture, is nothing less than fantastic. It's easy to take for granted, or even to forget the process itself while we're doing it. (Obviously, we don't usually think about thinking while we're thinking) But! (Big but) It's good to stop and appreciate that you can do it. Well, not just that you can do it, but that no one else can do it like you. Sounds cheesy, but it's the truth! Out of everyone who has ever lived, no two people have had the exact same experiences. We all develop and grow in similar ways, sure, but there is a uniqueness about everyone's experiences, and that carries over into our thought processes. Because of this, your perspective is always useful, even if it doesn't seem to be. Sometimes, thoughts from someone who knows nothing about a subject are extremely useful, even to an "expert:" this is the very definition of thinking outside of the box! Don't underestimate the power of your thoughts! Both how they can affect you and how they can potentially affect everything around you. Strength begins in the mind, and everyone has the potential to be whatever kind of powerhouse they fancy with the application of (you guessed it!) their thoughts. Enjoy your thoughts. They matter. They are important and relevant, even if they don't seem to be. No one's thoughts are more important than yours: productivity and progress does not equal value! Not all thoughts have to be highly intellectual or profound. The thought that reflects upon a beautiful sunset is no less valid than the one that wins an award. When you learn to enjoy your thoughts, embrace them and realize that they cannot be compared to anyone else's, you just might find that your thoughts are quite a bit more amazing than you might have initially thought!
