As humans, we have the ability to observe our thoughts as they come into our minds. This is called metacognition: the ability to think about thinking. This ability allows you to step back and go within so you can notice your predominant thoughts. You can analyze yourself—and create better for yourself. . . . #metacognition #thinker #thinking #thinkaboutthinking #mentalenergy #thementalist #raiseawareness #raisevibration #designyourlife #happyfriday (at Spring Valley, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnJxgD1Aphq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14b9308rcxuiz

.r.eclaim your life "The person is not reality" I am that - Nisargadatta Maharaj Sometimes it is a challenge to figure out who we really are. Are we our habits, our upbringing, our friend groups, our musical preferences? Are we our thoughts, our emotions, our past experinces? Take a second and observe your thinking. If you can do so, then you have reached an enlightening stage, for you can see at the base of it all you are the observer. Swayed by all the aforementioned things, but not them.... #enlightenment #thinkaboutthinking #youarenotyourcar #iamthat #takethepowerback #soccerball #greengrass #nikeswoosh #sponsormybabbling #wiseguyz #spirituality #findyourself #findmyself #theself #thewho #reading #bookclub #booklist #readme #wisdom #yogi #yoga4life #readingforbrains #meditateonthis https://www.facebook.com/RAWrTransformations

Today, the class got a little taste of how to think deeply, many minds were blown, and a few good points were brought up. I am sure that everyone’s gears in their mind were turning a new way today from being asked, who has a false belief? At first I was very stumped by the question. As I began to break down the question in my mind, I drew out a diagram in my notes. A side titled, “Yes” and a side titled “No.” Initially, my answer was just no; I don't have a false belief. I say that because when I hear the word belief, other words associated with that are knowledge, truth, and proven facts. Those three things are categories under which my beliefs can fall under. Why would I believe in something that is false? Then, my answer became yes and no. For the no portion, I thought of current events. Current events like, terrorism, equality, presidential and political issues, and other stories back in my home state, Hawaii. I added yes to my answer because a number of false beliefs I have are opinionated. The key word is opinion. Who knows the truth? Who can say what is correct? With the current issues, society can say what is wrong, but cannot say what is correct, because opinion, bias, and other factors weigh in on what their answer would be. That discussion ended and we moved onto, what would it take for you to change your mind? Threats? Gift bribes? Money? Friends? For me personally, I would need credible sources, thorough research, and enough confirmative evidence, just to grab my attention. Following that I’d analyze and really think about whether I'm going to let this credible source change my mind, or if I think its good, but not good enough to change my belief.
