Illusory Boss

You sometimes see yourself as the victim of your thoughts, especially the unpleasant, negative ones, the ones generated by fear, worry, resentment. You believe that such thoughts rule and you are unable to free yourself from them. You believe that your mind chooses a certain direction and you are not allowed to change its course. Here is a different idea: the mind is not the ruler! It is just a tool that wanders here and there, like a wild horse, until you stop it and harness it. The true "boss" is your deep self who, if you give it credit, trust and opportunity, knows how to guide you, teaching you how to say, "Stop!" to the negative thoughts that embitter your life. And the good news is that such negative thoughts can be replaced by the positive ones that can make you enjoy more serenity and true inner peace.
