Be Nice and Protect Your Mind

A high-level college football coach shared the above picture with his team. The world that we live in can be very critical, and social media doesn't help. Anybody can call out anybody whenever they want, and they can hide behind their computers and phones without fear of any kind of consequences.

The most important space to protect is the space in our minds. Our minds and our thoughts control our actions and performance. Don't let unwanted visitors come in and mess up your mind. Protect your mind and your mental health by not letting unwanted visitors and negativity in.

At the 33:13 mark of the video above, John Mayer says, 

"Celebrities spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on security and then get on the internet every morning and look at all this stuff online that makes them feel terrible, and it's like - they got in. They got in over the fence. If you are really going to live well, the mind is so important. Don't have unwanted visitors."

The people who laugh at the one mistake but don't praise the many good things that are going on are unwanted visitors.

No matter what, don't let anyone steal your happiness and joy. Plato said, "Caring about the happiness of others, we find our own."

Find ways to lead and serve others and to make others happy while controlling who you let in your own mind.
