By doing so, we partially recover from the massive amount of institutional, societal, and cultural brainwashing that has had a profound impact on our identity, the way we view ourselves, and our capabilities.
For example, despite what you've heard before, you don't need to be someone who requires everyone's support, or wastes their precious time and energy on gossip, which is often raised just to distract you from your deep purpose and passion. You can get rid of this bad thinking and restore your rationality and effectiveness as well.
However, this is difficult because distractions are everywhere, divert our attention, and create unnecessary focus points aimed at weakening our strength. As a result, we become more inclined to consumerism and rational egoism rather than forming deep relationships and achieving emotional freedom. Therefore, it is now the time for you to change your situation, free your mind, and regain control of your life.
8 Ways to Free Your Mind and Regain Control over Your Life
1. Being Selective about the Media You Follow
Marketers around the world track your behavior, buy your personal information, and analyze your online and offline habits to direct you to purchase products from the companies they work for. Therefore, they would know of any potential impulsive and unhealthy purchases you might be making, such as greasy fast food, even in terms of the percentage of those purchases.
They show you ads until your will weakens, and that's just one form of mind control you engage in openly daily. It's manipulation, it was built to be, and you have to regain control from these giant corporations by making strong-willed, healthy decisions that support your interests. So buy things that benefit you and the people you love, not things that benefit big corporations who don't care about you.
2. Prioritizing Your Desires
Allow yourself to live your life like you want to because you are the one who will pass away when the time comes. Life is too short to waste a lot of time wondering what others think of you. They wouldn't have time to sit down and talk about you if they had better things going on in their lives, and your opinion of yourself should be more important to you than theirs. Therefore, don't allow others or your fears to get in your way. They are there to let you know that you have something worthwhile, not to scare you. So, if you find your passion in a particular activity, stand up for it, and move forward no matter what.
3. Taking Action to Achieve Things Rather Than Just Wishing for Them
Do what you need to do today so that you can do what you want to do tomorrow. You may have heard from someone that what you should desire is an "easy life", but this is not true. What you should desire is a life that you are proud to live. This takes effort, because the only way we can truly live is by growing, the only way we can grow is if we change, the only way we can change is if we learn, the only way we can learn is by experience, and the only way to experience is by preparing to overcome the difficulties of life; do it, it's worth it.
4. Create Healthy Daily Habits
What determines your destiny is what you do every day because the way you spend your days is the way you spend your life. In a nutshell, when it comes to working hard towards a core life goal of any kind—whether getting a degree, building a business, starting a relationship or family, or becoming more conscious or any other personal achievement that takes time and commitment- you have to ask yourself one question, and that is: "Am I willing to spend some time each day in a way that most people don't, that I could spend the better part of my life in a way that most people can't?"
Think about it, in the end, we achieve what we work hard for over and over again. Isn't it strange that we don't feel the change that happens every day, but when we look at the past, we see that everything has changed? This is the power of everyday habits.
5. Changing Your Perspective from Negative to Positive
We can complain that rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice that thorns have roses. Do not allow negativity to affect you, and ignore others when they are negative. Also, keep in mind that the way others see things is rarely the truth, as there are no facts; It is only our interpretations that determine our success or failure.
If you look at things the right way, you can see that the whole world is a beautiful garden, and your job is to take care of it. In the end, your perception has an impact on your quality of living, so see and appreciate the roses. Therefore, train your mind to see beauty in everything, as positivity is a choice and your happiness depends on your perspective effectiveness.

6. Stop Expecting or Seeking Perfection
You and everyone you know have flaws, and that's how things should be. Don't be afraid of perfection, you will never reach it, and do not expect others to achieve it either. We are all imperfect beings full of flaws, therefore, we should not want to highlight others' weaknesses to conceal our own. In the end, you will realize that perfection, especially in relationships, exists only in beauty and sincere appreciation of our imperfections.
7. Giving Yourself a Break
Yes, you have battles in the world to fight, fears to overcome, family members to care for, and goals to achieve, but it is necessary to take a break from it all. It is useful to stop and rest for a while, and if you do not, you will overwhelm yourself. Therefore, do it regularly, which means making up for a lack of sleep, making time for laughter and pleasure, eating healthy enough to maintain energy levels, and making time to recover from the chaos of your daily routine.
8. Forgetting the Past
Sometimes we have to let go of what kills us, even if letting go do so. Letting go means recognizing that certain circumstances and relationships are part of your history, but it is not part of your destiny. So cry, forgive, learn, move forward, and let your tears water the seeds of your future happiness. Keep in mind, sometimes the hardest part is learning to start over, not the act of letting go. That's normal, this is a new day, a new beginning, and things will change for the better.
In Conclusion
As it was once said: “A new way of thinking has become the necessary condition for responsible living and acting. If we maintain outdated values and beliefs, a fragmented consciousness, and a self-centered spirit, we will continue to cling to outdated goals and behaviors.”
So today, try to gather your consciousness and focus on positive and fruitful thoughts and habits, do not care for criticism and pay attention to your intuition, free your mind, smile, and be grateful. Life is too short to be lost on the negative, and on those who spread it.
