Mental & Emotional Outlook

Mental & Emotional Outlook in 5 Precepts:

First off, I know reading in this fashion is not necessarily fun, but I just wanted to get these out of the way, so as to continue with a clear indication as to where I'm coming from in my blogs later on, so please bear with me.

One thing that influence me when forming these 5 outlooks came from recognizing my relationship with G-Living as a vegan.  The greener I though, the more sense my thoughts about life on a day-to-day basis came.  For example, I noticed that once I cleared flesh from my diet and my as a result my body changed, so did my ideas.

Precept 1
  • Where the emotions go the mind follow, and vice versa.  For example, the questions we ask ourselves influence our mental state:  ask sh@ty question about life, and that's what's given in return; ask for glory, and, well... you get the idea.  Ultimately, the choice is mine.

Precept 2
  • Both emotions and thoughts can be influence by physiology.  Change my state physically and I gain control of both emotions and mind.
Precept 3
  • The next piece of the puzzle, like mentioned in the intro, is what I put in my body.  A vibrant active mind is reflected and directed by an active, vibrant body build and sustained from a life, plant-based diet, rather than any other out there based on denatured, chemically and genetically altered foods, or decaying flesh from land, sea, or air.
Precept 4
  • Without a goals greater than my own wants ad desires, the other 3 precepts cannot be totally fulfilled and thus do not serve me.  For example, serve the earth; serve thyself.
Precept 5
  • In order to ensure the 4 precepts above, I will continue to model myself after others who have reached success in their related fields and apply them to my own.  This is to keep me learning to do it better from those who have already found a way.
