What Happens When Your Mind is Wired Up the Wrong Way?

in #mindset6 years ago

Hello, dear friends!

We should actively seek out truth and live in a way that respects the foundations on which this world came to be.

But for those of us who are too lazy to embark on a quest to find the truth about everything, the world might seem like a difficult and strange place to understand.

Ignorance is bliss, but even ignorant people are going to be baffled by their own lack of understanding from time to time, especially when they are faced with a difficult dilemma.

I recall a very strange day when a lot of people were mixed up in a new scandal of a celebrity whose name I cannot actually remember!

The problems of that celebrity’s personal life should be of no relevance or importance to other people, I thought to myself.
But I was wrong.

Not in my thought, but in my perception. Because even though that scandalous controversy should not have been a topic of debate among common people, it spread through the ranks of our society like wildfire.

We tend to grow used to that mindset; in this modern world, we are drenched in everything that happens around us.

Our lives are connected and it is no surprise that we hear from anything that happens in the world, even in the remotest place in the world.

But here is my problem: Why are we giving thought and attention to something that is of no true value?

There are hundreds of blog posts written every day on the beauty of a certain celebrity, but there are only a handful of articles about the issues that our society is dealing with at the moment.

Even if there are articles, people will be inclined to read the controversial and scandalous news pieces so that they have enough content to gossip!

What I am trying to say here is that our minds are wired up the wrong way.

The glamor of the 21st century has blinded us to the possibility that we may all be ignorant to what is actually important in our lives.

We waste time on things that neither benefit us nor the people around us. The people that require our attention. The life that is begging us to pay more heed to what it has to offer.

But no. That is not what we pay attention to. We preoccupy our minds with things of lesser importance.

Our minds are wired up in the wrong way and we perceive the world in the image of ignorance, ultimately cursing our own fate and potential.

I would very much like to discuss solutions to this collective ignorance of our society and I will do so in future blog posts, but for now, I want you all to join our discussion here and suggest ways to deal with the sightlessness of our bespoke society!

A BIG HUG!

Greetings @chbartist

We are in a time where information can reach many parties in a very short time, being able to use information as a way of propaganda to generate attention to a fashion, generating a potential income movement.

The economic needs are distorted, we are consuming information that does not generate profit; but that does not matter, since we are with fashion!

hello chbartist greetings from venezuela, people really like controversy, disasters and even seem to be happy with the misfortune of others, something on the front pages of the newspapers always appear photos of disasters, controversies and tragedies . We could say that we love tragedy ... and as you say we have connected badly

Hi @chbartist
As always this is again a nice topic to talk about. We are stuck in lots of things in our daily lives. Massive amount of things are happening in this world everyday and I want to be updated with most of things possible but end of the day I realise that day is too short for me. I mean 24 hours are not enough for me to do what all I wanted to do today. May be I am in the wrong direction or stuck with unnecessary things. But whatever is on high priority I do that first and remaining put for the next day. That's how its working for me now a days and honestly I have no solutions for this atleast as of now. I would appreciate if you can give me some solutions to overcome this situation.
Thanks much. Have a great weekend.

Saludos amigo @chbartist vamos creciendo con muchas fantasías surgidas de la vergüenza de nuestros mayores, ya que muchas veces, no son capaces de decirte en la cara como son las cosas realmente, pero no los podemos culpar, lo cual genera una distracción inútil por muchos años, y después que; ya estamos acostumbrados a ese sistema de pensamientos…

Excellent topic and analysis of what you very well call "collective ignorance." You will know that it is one of the reasons why I call my children's attention many times, since I frequently notice that they pay too much attention to superfluous things that They do not really matter, sometimes I think that happens as a result of the impetus boom in the world with the new technologies ... Before, my generation, we did not have a telephone to communicate with others, so life went more slowly, and we could be more analytical and deepen in our perception of things.Today there is an excess of information from all sides, but most of them in quantity rather than in quality, it will be a task of all the teachers, counselors and parents of the world to call the attention of our young people in that sense, thanks for sharing.

Excellent topic
your all blogs motivate them who tired to his/her struggle your articles push them :)
be blessed @chbartist

You are absolutely right, society has become so materialistic and plastic, prefer things regardless of whether this hurts others or simply do not care how others are, has become selfish and indolent.

Hello @chbartist!

This is an excellent time to discuss this topic, because almost no one asks these questions. For reasons that lack logic, the masses fall into these controversies about so much nonsense, ignoring the things that really have a value and should be our main concern. We live in a world that eats with vanity and falsehood, and anyone who pretends to swim against that current, at least is ignored or rejected.

I believe that a good start to help reverse these negative values ​​is to launch proposals from this platform, projects that can be translated into monetary capital to finance events such as seminars and even charitable activities, where positive values ​​are promoted.

I've always heard that whoever has the gold makes the rule. And it is totally true, from this platform many of us will find it very difficult to carry out titanic missions like this, more if we pretend to do it only with preaching, because the defect of the vanity of the world is accompanied by a lack of willingness to listen .

On the other hand, those who promote these useless gossip and controversy are people who have great capital and, therefore, can afford to accommodate the world according to their banal expectations. And even the world of gossip is a business for these people who have the services of the existing media.

Of course, all this would be long term, but if we are willing to launch into the adventure, it is better to do it now. We will never know if it does not work if we do not try. And we are living in another new era, where another revolution called Technology Blockchain is emerging, where we have infinite possibilities of doing great things, even without needing money, only if we do things very well.

Regards!!!

That literally happens with me everytime, I preoccupy my mind with things of lesser importance and end up wasting my entire time which was intended for some important work.
Looking forward to practically possible solutions!

Hello friend, your reflections are always good, thanks for sharing them with us, I will read it carefully since your articles are very good, helping other people writing us about their anecdotes of life, greetings!

These are interruptions from our normal thinking which do not allow is to focus on the tasks that will help is achieve our goals. Many think that entertainment related content is a portion of these changes, however it is a distraction we often have.

The world of technology has changed the world for better and for worse. This problem of people wasting time and energy gossiping, discussing and exploring what others have to say about the lives of celebrities is a sad reality hat occupies the minds of people who probably neglect their own lives. If they themselves were in the limelight I’m sure they would live their lives differently. Solutions are difficult but I would like to suggest that if people were to use social media more mindfully then changes are possible. How many people realise the fact that social media has opened up the world for every person, making it possible for even the unknown entities to become influential to others. The creation of groups designed to help others change the world view, instigate the innovation of new ways to make a difference is now at our fingertips. We can all be celebrities if we want to. Famous for how we respond to those who are listening.

Excellent statement of well known facts but why is it so? Could it be that people are afraid of thinking about their own lives as thinking might lead to conclusions and conclusions might require actions? Could it be that people are seeking an escape from their own reality? Could it be that the media has just bombarded people with information that they do not require for their daily lives?

May our minds become clear

I don’t believe our minds are wired up wrong, they are wire to notice perceived danger, so we focus on gossip and scandal.

As the newspapers put it “if it bleeds it leads” keep up the good work.

It's only when we are able to identify and dismiss the faulty logic of deceptive brain messages and believe in ourselves that we begin to break free and change our behaviors so that they align with our true goals and values in life.
