The mind is defined as the seat of thoughts and memory; the centre of consciousness that generates thoughts, feelings, ideas and perceptions, and stores knowledge and memories. Unlike the biological heart, it cannot be seen or handled physically, but it can be defined by its activities as expressed through brain or mental faculty. Humans beings are often said to be entangled in one challenges or the other in a certain point and stage in their life. Are challenges rewarding or destructive in themselves?
Today we will be talking about how we can exercise our minds for creativity. There are many gifted people who are dying with their gifts because of lack of exercise of the mind, but people who use their minds are never stranded. One of the ways to exercise the mind is to "FACE CHALLENGES"
Challenges are the opportunities to exercise the mind for profitability. The human mind remains in a state of rest until a relevant force is applied to it and that is exactly what challenges do. They are the instigator of the mind
What people call problems are simply challenges to the mind and their purpose is to compel the treasures in it to emerge, since they come to activate your potentials. You may not be able to tell how fast you can run until a wild dog is chasing you. In the same way, problems push you out of indolence and nonchalance to creative projections. So the only way to know what you can do with your mind is to allow it to be instigated by some external pressures. If you need everything you need on a platter of gold, your brain will never be energised to think.
For instance, the early technological development in the western world can be attributed to their harsh weather conditions. When they are faced with the biting cold they learnt how to make clothes. People were still dying in the cold, so they began to think of how to keep their homes warm. They started by burning wood to generate heat, then they made stoves, and gradually electric heaters were developed.
Some People will never think of how to get money until they are faced with hunger. Stop dodging challenges; face them in order to phase them out. Nobody prays for hard conditions in life, but sometimes that is what provides you the opportunity to exercise your mind; it keeps the inner man alive.
