Sometimes, I find my life stagnant. I wonder what I can do to improve my situation. Only to realize that solution is simple.<\/span>
\n 
\nWe are the product of our thoughts. We need to improve our thought process to see a difference in the way we live.<\/span>
\n 
\nHow to improve the thought process?<\/span>
\n 
\nThis can be done in two ways:<\/span>
\n <\/p>\n

1.Reorder the existing thoughts<\/b><\/h6>\n

 
\nToday you have close to 60,000 thoughts. Tomorrow you have the same 50,000 thoughts of yesterday and 10,000 different thoughts. The 50,000 thoughts which run in common daily are the ones you need to encash on. Even though the 50,000 thoughts keep occurring at random times and in random order if you can find a pattern and bring them into a structure, there you took an opportunity to improve your thought process.<\/span>
\n 
\nI write down the various thoughts I get during the day in my journal. When I do my review, I understand how I can improve my thought process.<\/span>
\n 
\nThe biggest challenge with this method is, you need to revise the thought process multiple times in your head so that the improved thought process becomes the new normal. Otherwise, you know what should be the order but you will never see the improvement in thought process.<\/span>
\n <\/p>\n

2.Feed new thoughts<\/b><\/h6>\n

 
\nOn a Sunday, when you go into the kitchen, you realise that you could have made a wonderful lunch if only you had bell-peppers or onions.<\/span>
\n 
\nImproving the thinking process is also the same. At times, even though you bring order to the chaos in your head, there will be some element missing. That is when you have to feed it with new thoughts. There are multiple ways to do this:<\/span>
\n 
\nA) Question the existing thoughts<\/b>
\n 
\nSometimes you need not require additional items. But you need to change the perspective of existing items. Why should a carrot be used only as a vegetable? Why can\u2019t it be used as a fruit?<\/span>
\n 
\nB) Copy the thought process<\/b>
\n 
\nThink like your ideals. Put your ideal into your shoes and then ask what would he have done if he were in my place?<\/span>
\n 
\nC) Expand your mind<\/b>
\n 
\nRead books and do courses which will challenge your thinking.<\/span>
\n 
\nD) Expose yourself to new surroundings<\/b>
\n 
\nOnce in a while go on a trip. If you can\u2019t do that, change your cabin in office. If that also can\u2019t be done, exchange your bedroom with that of your roommate. Or the simplest, change the direction of your sofa or table. Move the apps in your phone. Change your wallpaper daily. Any small change will also help in improving the thought process.<\/span>
\n 
\nHow do you improve your thought process? Have you tried any of the above before?<\/span>

\nHappy improving the thought process!<\/span>
